Hunter x Hunter: Nen Impact has gameplay out.

 

 

 

Looks promising...slight hype but I have some criticisms.  I had to relook up who was deving this game cause some of the hit impacts reminded me of Naruto GNT/CoN and that lines up with Eighting.   The big issue I'm having is some of the hits are lacking impact which GNT/CoN didn't have an issue with.   This issue feels multiplied when they showed Gon's super at the end.  It was SUPER anticlimatic and unsatisfying.  Game has some time to release so hopefully some of the impact gets fixed.   Marvel 3/ult Marvel 3 didn't have this issue either so wondering what's going on here.

Oh boy...

I'm just now fully getting caught up on the "Hard R" controversy surrounding Stellar and I find it more funny than anything.  I don't feel offended at cause in terms of context its not the actual word and its not really being said to anyone in particular on top of the circumstance of the shop itself being called the R shop.  At the same time I also have to consider statistics here...this korean dev had the chance to put any english word in front of R shop on that stage and they landed on "hard".  I don't really want to think there is any malicious intent in it but I can't help but think about how coincidental it was.

Yeah its crazy how easily you can stumble into full blown porn in the comments section of something and it doesn't even have to be related.  And it 75% of the time starts with some OF post and then just fucking snowballs from there.

I just decided to click on that second tweet and look through some of the comments and saw this and...I just......

.....Why would there have to be....an Africa in a fictional fantasy world....for there to be black people?  Like...the sheer amount of...Let's change some words in this quote to hear how dumb this is.  "Last I checked there's no Japan in Suikoden but yes let's put IRL in a fantasy game"  "Last I checked there's no Spain in Suikoden but yes lets put IRL in a fantasy game"  etc...

My insurance (Progressive) just raised their monthly rate yet again by 60 bucks.

 

Is every insurance blowing up thanks to inflation or is it just them?

Yes.  House insurance is apparently in shambles right now from what I've been hearing from our ancillary team at work and Car insurance overall has been seeing an average increase across the industry.  2023 was not a fun time for us having to talk to the influx of customer calls.

Edit:

There's actually been several articles about this

I want to say I'm surprised at some of the excuses/ignorance/shit takes regarding the black character but I'm not.

I def do not have money like that to go out every night.  That would also put a bit too much meat on the bone eventually lol.

They have now roped in Bugs' current VA into this lol. (Side Note: Bauza is actually an official voice for Foghorn too...didn't know that)

Confirmed that Samus was set to be in Fortnite, then NIntendo said no

You already know why they said no...you don't even need to click to find out why.

That would be an insane development if DoA ended up being a Nintendo exclusive lol.  Just the thought of that makes me laugh.

Grain of salt right now but Kotaku is saying that the Knuckles show barely has Knuckles in it...and is mostly focused Wade Whipple....

Oh wow...we trying to put propaganda on Henry Cavill now?  For real?  Dunno how that's gonna play out cause I feel like most believe he was the best part of the show.
