Well tbh since Coco kept her other persona semi active during the time at hololive too I daresay we'll find out if she does anything of that nature once any contracts run out. That said I don't see her making an agency as a specific thing for disgruntled Holos, it just seems like the kind of thing she'd be good at if she wanted to.
 

Lulu's graduation stream tommorow, sucks they both are going so close, one of my favourite gaming streamers
 
 

One thing it does do is hog the controller 1 port with big picture even when you aren't using it.
 
Was having a hell of a time trying to play non-steam games that were picky about wanting the player 1 controler until I found out that was what was happening. Part of it is Windows shoddyness but steam is equally to blame since that problem has been around for ages and only still is because both Microsoft and Steam haven't been arsed to fix their end of it.

y'know, it kinda irks me when I see some (usually youtube/streamer folks) saying online-only gaming could possibly be better in the future when/if the infrastructure is better, or something like that... but thinking about it again lately... I still don't even agree with that hypothetical future scenario.  That still doesn't solve the problems from games being tied to an internet connection.  Even if the internet was 1000x better than it is today... I still don't like the idea that the consumer's sense of ownership is completely destroyed in a future where all games are online-only "services".  The fact remains that the game goes away at some point no matter how much money was spent on it, and the consumer is ultimately left with nothing.  It turns all games into a rental that *will* end at some point for a big list of reasons that are all beyond your control.  There is NO scenario where it magically becomes a "good thing".  Online-only is conceptually a horrible idea for the consumer.  There is literally no positive spin on it, imo....it cannot ever be improved because the idea is inherently awful in the first fucking place.  I was talking about Anthem just the other day with a friend who was also a fan of the game for a short time...and we're wondering how much longer that game has left.  It will cease to exist very soon.  In fact, he started it up just to see if it was still functional... he plans to get some more time with it while he still can.
 
Outriders---the latest one I shamefully broke my own rule for... I was thinking about it again lately... it would elevate the game SO much if it was just a normal game that could be played offline like the good ol' days.  (*and I suspect the game would run a lot smoother too)  Cut the internet-reliance cord and add some deep customization and it would be one of my favorite looter/shooters of all time, easily.

Gems could have been cool done right, the idea reminded me a bit of Arcana Heart's arcana system which is cool as hell, pick your character then slap an arcana on them which gives them additional special moves, supers and passive properties like changing a dash to a run, giving a third jump etc. and changes a few stats with regard to damage and meter gain.
 
Too bad "Go to the play store to buy your autoblock here" isn't done right.

It is old ass folk who only got rich cause of one or two things they have deep knowledge of and then leave power to their dumb ass kids, younger siblings/family or 'proteges' who are basically only slightly less ignorant because old ass folk rarely trust people that don't do or think exactly like they do.

Damn that's pretty fucked up, especially from a group with a name like that.

Caught a bit in betwen something else, didn't get enough to get too much of an impression but was really impressed by her live 2D, it's something that seems hard to get right with that artstyle

Nijisanji singing relay is going on today btw, Rindou's stream started right when the live ended https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8wlPc08-hY

No stream link yet but Kagura Nana has a 3D live on her channel on Satuday or Sunday

Original Aloy looked average at best.
 
I kind of thought that was what they were going for.
 
I wasn't looking to fap to my player character.
 
So it wasn't even an ever-so-slight mental shrug of the shoulders to me.
 
I AM shaking my head at people bitching about her looking "too feminine" to be strong.
 
Wokeness is sleeping on its brain stem at a bad angle.
 
The Far Left is the new Far Right.

The director took a steaming dump on femininity. This is why Japan makes better females leads than their western counterparts.

That voice actress stepping down from Guilty Gear doesn't sit right with me, the whole "Hey only these people can play these characters" thing has already been addressed but what gets me is basically the disrespect to and lack of shits given about the product itself, to me it just reads as "I absolutely couldn't give a fuck about the experience of people playing the game having arbitarily voice switched between games or the overall quality of the game itself, my issue is more important", which tbh I just find to be an incredibly shitty mentality for someone trusted in part with bringing someone else's work overseas.
 
Makes me glad I play in sub as long as I cross my fingers none of the Japanese VA's get arrested with weed on them and get the "Project Judgement" (I think it was that game right? Was defintely a SEGA game that got completely revoiced) treatment which imo is just as bad but on a corparate instead of an individual level.

Speaking of animu fighting games Arcana Heart 3 got mad cheap again, it's just had an update which has taken it to full screen and rebalenced some shit, imo it's still one of the best fighting games out there

I follow Yuuzuki Roa who just kind of ghosted after some controversy that got blown up but she hasn't officially graduated so there's always a chance of a comeback hopefully, though it's been months now.

Meh- you already have a whole biome of symbiotic organisms in your body.  Might as well welcome the one that wants to keep you youthful at 240 years old.

I feel like Stadia is an insult to consumers intelligence and I'm not surprised (nor is anyone else) that it totally failed.  
 
This line cracked me up:
"The prospects were exciting to fans and pundits, who predicted that Stadia could dominate the market, offering many of the same games as Xbox and PlayStation without the hefty price tag."

 
Who the hell ever said that? From the moment it was announced, everyone I saw that had anything to say about it either responded with apathy, skepticism, cynicism, or flat out lol'd at it. 
 
Also, aren't games full price on that thing?? And you can't even download or physically own them?? Seems a lot less economical when you're essentially renting a game at full price 
 

My mans u cant just go around posting uncensored shit like that

Damn Dodonpachi got sick jackets, more expensive than some cars I've had but sick nonetheless
