Silly CZ, sarcasm doesn't translate on the internet unless you make it abundantly clear or follow it up with a disclaimer, or for the less headstrong, both.
 
Done with the first three episodes of Mayo Chiki!. This show is a lot better than I was expecting it to be. 👍

Now on to episode 16 of Burst Angel before I leave for class.
 
AOS-
Gahhh I woke up too late.... not going to school now. :indiff:

It's back to dinky tablet methods today.

If only I could be like you.

Cutting classes for one whole day would give me really adverse effects on grades and such. :lol: Ah well, high school never ends.
 
I don't have class today, I was only going to go in and use their Cintiq to draw.

BTW While I will be streaming tonight, I'm going to have to keep it short. I'm running low on bandwidth.

I don't care what anyone says, GT4 came close. That game was massive.

👍 This is coming from a guy who's written a GT4 fanfic.
*cough* "Shameless plugsuiting!"

50/50? :p

Amen to that.

And yeah, whoever suggested Rainmeter, that is a good idea as well. But honestly, the OEM icons just make me think its an old person's computer that simply doesn't know better.

Cool kids know better, amirite?

You be right. I need to change both my RM theme and wallpaper. I've been sitting on my current one for over a month now. Ew.

C-ZETA
:3 Bit late though, innit? :irked:

But yeah, the tunes in the original + Zero Mission, and Super Metroid, are awesome. And Fusion is cool too.

Late for what, hating on Other M? It's never too late to cite it as the contradictory garbage that it is.

GT2 > GT1. Fact.

FM4 is a very good game. I love it. However I still love GT5 more when it comes to online racing. Actually it has a better single player too. FM4 got it right with multi-class racing, but the longest race in the game isn't even 10 laps long...

See? He knows!

Better in what regard? There are several tracks that aren't used, the ridiculous level system ruins most of the fun you can have because you're sitting there cursing to yourself about the X1 "Why unlock it at Lv. 30 if I can't purchase the goddamn thing until Lv. 40? What kind of 🤬 sense does that make?!" It's also hideously short, license tests serve absolutely no purpose at all.

I'll agree with the race lengths, but that was taken out because... you guessed it.... complaints.

I absolutely agree. That's why I call it "GT2+2".

I haven't yet.

Too occupied with GC, MC, S&W, AGE, SR... too many initial-isms so I'll stop.

Except AGE because I currently have no idea what that's an initial-ism for. I'd have a guess, but I don't feel like it.

Advanced Generation Experiment, there, you happy now?

We were, sorry, reflex from talking to the GT5 forum idiots. So, address my previous point where you asked what Prologue has that GT5 doesn't and we'll get back on track.

I could even argue (with sufficient evidence) that Prologue, during it's entire *active* life has had better DLC than GT5.
Click to expand...

Well to be perfectly honest, most of the things you mentioned that Prologue has that GT5 doesn't didn't seem all that important. Nice touches perhaps, but I'd rather have dynamic weather and time-of-day. Not to mention nearly 10x more cars and several more tracks, including Nurburgring. No Nurburgring = (< Steins;Gate), Nurburgring = (> Steins;Gate)

Forza > GT5 period 👍. If you ask me why, I will spam you a bunch of kinematical evidence foo...

Someone needs to create a sim that utilizes SLI and Crossfire. Use one card to process the physics:tup:. Want a sim that breaks the barriers in physics.
Click to expand...
If physics were your sole criteria, sure Forza would be better than GT... but there's numerous PC sims that blow Forza away in that department. Thus if that's your only criteria, why you'd waste your time with Forza is beyond me.

I love both GT5 and Forza 4 immensely, and I personally think Forza 4 has the edge over GT5. But there's still things in GT5 that I love which Forza doesn't do. And unlike Turn 10, Polyphony has a tendency to continually tweak, revamp and add features to the game post-launch, aside from just selling DLC cars and tracks. We saw that with Prologue, and we're seeing it with GT5.

Several more tracks that aren't even used (if at all) much in A-Spec. Online is fantastic, yes, but why the hell should I have to arrange a race on a new track no less because it isn't featured in the career mode? What kind of sense does that make?

That's where they lose credibility - they're only tweaking and revamping features because they continuously break features every goddamn patch. There are still features not only mention on the boxart, but in the Apex book that still aren't in the game. You're being shown all of these photomode locations that you have no way of getting to - what's the point of that? You're adding an option for Photo Streaming next month? Why? I can upload my pictures to Photobucket, Flickr, or IMGUR as I've been doing for the past year or so. They (PD, Sony, I don't care) had the full intention of screwing you over for DLC, and the only thing that stopped them was the tremendous outcry... as if they weren't even expecting that to begin with. And then, people claim MS/Turn 10 are money-grubbing? Get the 🤬 out of my face with that BS.

The only reason it's being supported as much as it is has to do with a few reasons: 1. They have no other choice considering the condition it was in; whether you (not you in particular) find it admirable that they're *fixing* a game that had no business being released in the condition it was is up to you. 2. How long will it be before GT6 comes out? 3. They apparently have absolutely no idea how to manage their resources, thus the reason spectators were removed from, what track was it, London?

Despite their original intention being overshadowed by outrage, they've still managed (PD, Sony, I don't care) to screw you/us over in every DLC released to date - We paid for a Premium XJR-9. Really? We paid for a Scirocco that evidently could have been patched into the game a month or two after the game was finished considering it missed the launch window.

That's my rant and it really doesn't even tap into the problems I have with the way GT5 was handled, overhyped, and presented.
