You're right, my mistake. I misread your original comment.

I'd love to dig up examples from the first two videos, but that would involve actually watching them again, which I'd like to avoid if at all possible. She got so many facts wrong that it became extremely distracting to me and heavily undermined the message in my eyes.

You seemed excessively apologetic, yes. Also that's definitely not the correct usage of "white knight".

CoD does nothing to encourage or reward teamwork, though. In fact, the very concept of killstreaks makes it beneficial to be a lone wolf, since you'll gain more kills, feeding into more killstreaks, etc.

There's a lot of evidence she hasn't put a lot of time into this. She has recorded very little original footage of the games she's criticizing (she just copies them from other youtube videos without attribution) and gets a remarkable number of facts wrong besides.

Doc, there are a lot of problems with her videos. My biggest one is that there's very little evidence that she's played the majority of the games she's criticizing. That's reinforced by her repeated use of other people's video on youtube without citing sources.

There's noble futility — which I suppose is a very romantic notion — but it generally makes more sense to put yourself in a situation where you could do something about it. As a refugee, you could put political pressure on China while still safeguarding your own welfare. This is doubly so as an artist, since he…

Most people are looking to have fun. It doesn't usually take a lot of charisma to convince your teammates to work together in a generally productive manner.

I understand not wanting to leave your country. I even understand dying for a cause. But China is determined to rule the 21st century, and they don't seem to care much who they step on to get there. The US isn't going to be able to stop them either.

He should probably do a little homework looking into immigrating elsewhere. If I was sitting on the doorstep of an expansionist world power looking to become an empire again, that would be one of my top priorities.

Watch a few videos on youtube, then. Preferably of one of the better players so you can see how highly technical it gets when you've unlocked a bunch of skills and are canceling and juggling right and left. :)

The poll on gamefaqs found elf to be the most popular (not surprising since she's the most technical character with the highest skill ceiling).

You shouldn't need a demo to convince you; it's amazing. If there's a bone in your body that enjoys beat em ups, you will not be disappointed.

Not just too expensive, their failure rates are way, way, way too high. HDDs don't have a limited number of write cycles, and barring mechanical failure can last decades.

Grinding can be fun if the combat system is enjoyable. It's only a chore when combat is excessively slow, uninteresting, or artificially inflated by ridiculously low rewards.

I find it extremely amusing and sad (depends on how I feel about humanity in general at the time, I suppose) that so many of the people who bash Japanese RPGs don't realize how much variety is out there. To a degree, I guess this is the fault of those doing localization, since crazy inventive games seem to be often…

Unfortunately, a lot of people take everything he says very seriously... including my mother.

Many, many do. Nintendo region locks to protect profit margins, nothing more.

You remember the Udraw? The little device that put THQ out of business? It pretty well proved there isn't a market for this.

Is there going to be an Index tie-in this time too? Loved being able to have my character cosplay as one of the Sisters. :)
