I just saw another game. It was in the Humble Bundle 18 called Neon Drive. Kinda more my style though. Retro future 80s synth stuffs. But still, fun. Thumper is going to be a good too.

Yeah, playing on a pad in the living room is fun, but nothing compared to having an audience in the arcade. But even at the arcade you have to deal with the one or two people who just breath DDR and have no intention of giving up the stage.

Psh. I doubt it. Even if you were DDRing in EBGames in 1999 that’d put you at most 40. I showed a lady I worked with DDR for the Wii and she went nuts. She was reaching 60.

That sucks. Because you could have had a throw down dance off.

Reality is worse. Buy a normal house and put in skylights... It’s not that great.

Or you could do like Brazil and the TVs. Arrange a mirror system to light up individuals houses or offices. Height becomes a commodity.

I wonder what those amazing Cyberpunk cityscapes would look like at noon. You know, just as the sun illuminates the street and everyone gets to enjoy their 30 minutes of light. “This block will enjoy sunlight from 11:42am to 12:05pm.” - Brought to you by Coca-Cola Classic!

I’m glad I play it’s competitors. Geeze... Premium ammo is insane...

A good answer. The catch is that the villain monologueing can be doing 10 others things at the same time. But really, I would rather make a good first impression than worry about that. Because eventually there is gong to be another AI and other humans will shoot first or attempt to delete it. I don’t think that…

I think this is the type of strategy I would attempt. I’d walk the AI through it, but I may have to disconnect the internet before I do anything. While I am willing to risk everything I have to meet an AI, I hold short of risking the entire world. I’d grab up good old fashioned DVD-RW’s and bring over Wikipedia. …

Hmm, actually #4. The idea that it stopped fighting in my made up scenario and wanted to talk could have significance.

I’ve seen this idea before... Hmmm...

Okay, but it doesn’t know what a Demon is. If it took the form of a Demon it would be like an alien taking the form of Hitler thanks to his Olympic games broadcast. It wouldn’t mean anything unless it wanted it to mean something.

Good point. Taking the appearance of you would be creepy. Especially if it’s the real you. Not the Doom guy.

Lets see... Willfred Mott or Donna Nobles grandfather tried that to a Dalek. It didn’t go well.

I dove into Yahtzee’s non-review stuff before. His games weren’t great. You think it’s good? It’s got the whole Kindle + Add Audible trick right now.

Dedication right there. But try uninventing something. Especially while drawing attention to it’s creation in such elaborate ways. Illegal in your country sure. But the second someone knows its possible and that you are trying to destroy copies of ____ and the source codes... They are going to go straight to it…

This is the crux of the issue in my opinion and why I made the original post. The Animatrix definitely crossed my mind. Do we make our first impression an attack? Should we teach that combat is what reality is? Is it going to find out anyway? Has it already found out and is planning to attack? Is it attacking…

I like it, the pragmatic approach. You’d like “IT > Sci Fi”
