I remember when I bought P4, the girl at Gamestop was geeking out over the game (and cosplaying) and warned me multiple times not to look at the art book because it had spoilers.  She was really cute, but looked a tad young for me.

Very cool.  Hakuoki was one of my favorite games last year.

Publicity's publicity, Dragon's Crown is getting attention, and hopefully it's as fun as Odin Sphere but less repetitive, more balanced, and with minimal slowdown.  If that's the case, then it's all good in my book. 

But if I play the amazon character, I will probably grunt "snu snu" with every kill because I'm 8 years old.

One look at the amazon immediately makes me think of the "death by snu-snu" episode of Futurama.

Soul Hackers is unapologetically old school by today's RPG standards (came out on Saturn in 1997 and Playstation in 1999), but that's why I both love it and am sometimes annoyed with it.  For Megami Tensei faithful, it's not hard to get into.  But for new MegaTentists, it can be a bit rough without a manual. 

Love the story, voice acting, music, and art style.  I too am not overly fond of the main character's look, but he definitely looks like he's tougher and more physical than the other hackers, which fits with him being on front lines.

Cleanup crew's had its share of dumpster diving treasures.  If it weren't for "taking one for the team," I wouldn't have played the Naruto: Path of the Ninja games, which were actually good!

I likes it.  At first I thought the soft intro was a bit too long in the buildup, but I soon forgot about that once the heaviness kicked in.  I like that you have a barbarian type voice that's powerful AND properly enounciated.  I love guttural cookie monster growls as much as the next guy, but this vocal style is more "epic" to me.  I'm reminded a bit of Bal-Sagoth, but with a more stripped-down, thrashy sound without the orchestrations and stuff. 

I can only imagine how that would sound live with Les Pauls (equipped with Seymour Duncan Blackout pickups) ran through Mesa/Boogie Triple Rectifiers.  Oh, and a Roscoe 5-string bass ran through an Ampeg SVT and a pair of "fridge" (8x10) cabinets.  And a Tama Kit with double bass, tons of toms, array of Sabian cymbals...

You don't mess with Khaleesi unless you want your face immolated.

When I used to frequent a bass players' forum, I used to get GAS like crazy.  GAS= Gear Acquisition Syndrome.  When I stopped posting there and started playing more, the GAS subsided.  I still like gear, but I don't always have to covet it and get it. 

I wonder if RPGFan has that same effect on people.  GAS= Game Acquisition Syndrome.  Would our gaming lives be happier without RPGFan?  Ignorance is bliss and all that? 

I don't think so.  I like my quirky underground stuff too much.

I've been here since 1999 and I know I've changed a lot.  In my 20s, I tried to be all mature and a paragon of proper decorum.  Now in my 30s, I'm like "eff that" and I gladly point and laugh along with the peanut gallery and embrace my inner 8 year-old. 

Some of us became well-adjusted over the years.  Some of us became maladjusted.

I'm with Yoda.  Dag does look a lot like the guy on Mythbusters who said "I reject your reality and substitute my own."

Thanks!  It's still surreal that this happened.  The pressure's on now, thanks to this immortalization.  I really have to stay skinny now, right?

(Oh, and for all you Chicagoans, Jar'd Loose, the band on my shirt, is a Chicago-based heavy rock band we played with earlier this year who IMO tore it up!)

A fan of my band, whose hobby is making custom action figures, just finished making action figures of us.  Here's a pic of me holding mine.

28  Media / Single-Player RPGs / Re: What's your criteria when choosing a starter Pokemon? on: April 14, 2013, 06:34:47 PM
Speculation time! 

I predict Chespin will be grass/fighting because of its slashing claws.  I predict Fennekin will be fire or fire/normal unless it deviates big time from the precedents set by other "fire dog" pokemon like Vulpix and Growlithe.  Froakie is a tough one to predict.  I'm thinking water/ice since the moustache and all look like snow clouds on high mountains, and there are frogs, like the Alaskan wood frog, who can freeze themselves into hibernation and generally survive in Arctic circle climates.

Yoda- those bad pickup lines are gold.

I've heard the analogy that water= tank, fire= sweeper, grass= special ops. 

I echo the sentiment someone else said that hopefully fennekin won't be a fire/fighting type again, since chimchar and tepig were both fire/fighting. 

I'll definitely be choosing Froakie.
