Re: Souls-blight

This was always mostly a language problem. If Sword of Berserk and Shinobi came out today western audiences would call them soulsbornevanialikes with reduced rolling mechanics. Because they are retarded. The average "fan" has a completely vulgar idea of what From games are trying to do, wh...

Lynch, like many filmmakers, was very moved and inspired by Kenneth Anger. Look, rabbits.

Re: RPG maker games that aren't cookie cutter garbage

For me I view Super Metroid as the artistic synergy between arcade game design, and 'art'. Something like Demon's Souls is probably the modernish version of that game design style. That Angel dude did talk about Taro's merits as an artist. That's an argument you should have with him. Me I'm just li...

Re: RPG maker games that aren't cookie cutter garbage

I think you may be misinformed on the nature of Drakengard. Going to respond to everything you said about it here. Collectively you seem to have accepted the retarded /v/ goes hard human interpretation that the game is bad unpleasant and retarded on purpose. Doubtful. How could I be misinformed whe...

Re: RPG maker games that aren't cookie cutter garbage

Sorry I don't really have anything to say about RPGmaker beyond being very impressed with Fear & Hunger, which we've already covered (I knew it before SuperCrypatchWolf made his shit video (which I will not watch)). But I'll go to bat for Taro since I'm here. Do I endorse him as a writer? Not r...

Re: Vidya with legitimately good "writing."

Yeah the cult aspect of Silent Hill is often overlooked within the West. They prefer to think of Silent Hill as a Christian Purgatory of sorts but the concept of Purgatory is Cathloic and even then the games don't even resemble Catholic Purgatory. It looks more like a David Lynch film. Dante's Infe...

Re: On the "wokeness" of recent Gundam

Holy media illiteracy... I'll give you this. You're not wrong starting out. Gundam is very interpersonal. It's dramatic. Char and Amuro and everyone they're close to, their lovers, enemies, friends, there's a lot going on. And Amuro isn't super enthusiastic about finding himself shanghaid into his ...

Re: On the "wokeness" of recent Gundam

What you just described is the opposite of Gundam. The first two Gundam anime were all about drama and character interpersonal fighting. The conflict between Char and Amuro. Char's betrayal of Garma. The love triangle between Lala Sune, Char and Amuro. Giren's ambition. The original Gundam was abou...
