That’s the only casting I’m kinda dubious of actually. Not because the actor is black, but because he doesn’t share L’s level of eccentricity. You kinda get the sense that L is a savant, not all that well adapted to functional living outside of a few specific areas where he’s extremely competent. So far, this actor…

Pretty sure the pope’s not going to play it, as the video itself points out, the Pope doesn’t even own a computer. However, it’s a nice little gesture. Plus I rather do think that if you’re going to choose one game to represent the values you want to put forward as a community, Undertale is probably one of the better…

Yea, Undertale fandom is kinda the same way. Actually I’d say most character driven fandoms are like this to some extent. They try to invent details to fill in the little ambiguities, and then extrapolate them outward dramatically. Sometimes it works pretty well, other times you get interpretations that clash…

Welp, like I’ve said before. Developers will optimize for the entry level hardware. Since there’s going to be 50+ million PS4's and a ton of XB1's by the time these half-generational refresh consoles come out, they really have no choice.

That means a lot of the horsepower in the new hardware won’t be utilized well, if…

Yeah, trust me, this could’ve gone badly. The guy handled it well enough, but probably shouldn’t have stuck around as long as he did. A lot of people tend to underestimate how dangerous bears can be unless they’re grizzly’s. This can be a deadly mistake.

“If we can make a film that earns 10 billion [$1.5 billion], then people from all over the world who study film will learn Chinese, instead of us learning English.”

Honestly, yeah look I’m going to have to side with Nintendo with this one. I get that people want more female leads in Nintendo games. Honestly though, I think gender-swapping existing characters is a huge cop-out, and it isn’t really fair to the art in question.

Lady-Thor is a good example of this. Despite spending…

Ugh, kinda pointless seeing as developers will optimize for the baseline hardware. Most of that horsepower will end up under-utilized.

Also stop focusing on horsepower. Just make or publish good games, dagnabbit!

You do know that most consumers buy GPU’s that cost between 150 and 300USD riiiiiiight? And in that price range AMD’s beating the pants off them riiiiiiiiight? Look, I’m not trying to be a smart alec here, but, the real high end enthusiast market just isn’t where the market-share is.

More spoilers

1: Being a bit casual with the spoilers aren’t we?

Yeah, I rather dislike it when people treat the Genocide route as the canon ending. It’s VERY heavily implied not to be, as the TPE is the only ending where you see the full credits.

All that said, dangit, so many spoilers here. <_<;;

Well, minions don’t show up in dungeons, and I think they leave when a player engages in overworld combat as well. So for the most part, minions are pretty darn easy to overlook.

Saddens me to see time finally catching up with Miyamoto a bit. That whole Peter Pan vibe he’s got going for him is one of the most endearing things about the guy.

Not that this has disappeared mind you.

Yes, let the 80's flow through you!!

Okay, real-talk time.

Welp, time to clear the calendar and start stocking up on Cheez Its.

Yep, about what I expected. Snyder’s two big problems is that first he doesn’t know when he’s laying it on too thick, second that he often conveys the exact wrong impression!

Kinda both a good and bad there here.

Mmm, if they’re doing 4K then it’s probably through a built in upscaler, rather than through increased horsepower. Simply increasing horsepower probably wouldn’t do it, seeing as many games are optimized for the current hardware configuration and would need to be tweaked.
