I still hold that the only reason anyone ever thought any part of FFXII was well written was because of Alexander O Smith’s translation.

Forsooth and negatorium, declareath I.

Bravely Second corrected a lot of the missteps in BD. Worth checking it out. I liked BS a lot more than BD.

In case anyone else was wondering, the grays are just as shit as you were expecting.

- “Last week, writer and comedian Keaton Patti showed JOKED how bots can be a force for good when he fed JOKED about feeding 1,000 hours of Olive Garden ads to a machine and asked it to write one of its own. The JOKE result was an absurdist nightmare...”

It wasn’t bot-written. Neural nets don’t work like that. He wrote it himself. It’s a meme. Rarely are these “AI-generated scripts” actually generated.

Yep. That’s how it is here in the DC/Va/Md area. We have talented photographers and cosplayers who work together and no money is exchanged. TFP is a good system.

You Millennials and your sensible financial planning are ruining the marriage industrial complex. I hope you’re happy.

It’s ok not to like these games to be honest. Some fans of these series are maybe just a bit too persistent on their views.

Agreed. His calling out the reprehensible Wu when her supporters were just glossing over her behavior and enabling her was one of his finest moments. That is the kind of willing engagement that will be missed.

Are you trying to shame him in death? Because that was just a reminder of how fucking great he was.

Fwiw, the only thing legendary about the star ocean series is how consistently mediocre it is. I think a mobile game is the natural next step for the series.

Found a troll that couldn’t get past the filter.

Seriously? I’m honestly surprised a cursory google search of the Con’s name didn’t come up with it, especially since the simple terms “Anime Matsuri 2018" gives you an article about the boycott (with reasons why) within the first few results.

As much as Kotaku tries to call out the tech/game industry for sexual misconduct and inequality, it’s surprising to see them ignore the avalanche of harassment claims against the show runner and the Nazi “costumers” that ran a panel (complete with Anne Frank fanfics) at this year’s con.

Latest from the investigation show that even if it was not an autonomous vehicle, and the driver was alert, he/she would still not have had enough time to stop the vehicle.

For one, it sounds like on-board video confirms that the pedestrian unexpectedly swan dived into the road from between some parked cars.

Video from the car (referenced in another article) shows the person popping out from the darkness on the side of the street. Sources say it most likely wouldn’t have been avoidable regardless of who was driving (human or computer)
