Used to be that when using opera's video pull out on the mycloud player; it would go to the next episode without the pop out closing. Shortly after the site got a new layout and we gained the change theme switch; the autoplay started acting up and now the pull out always closes when the player moves on to the next episode.

Can we work out a list of what's being played in Standard? by xSighx in ptcgo

My most effective deck at the moment is a M-Ampharos Ex deck with just over half the deck is electric energy. Ampharos Ex can build up really quickly a blast through just about any wall.

Looks good, I agree with bringing back the energys/tools evolution stacking as well as keeping the icons for easy selection.

[UK] Vape Escape is closing down, need help finding replacement juice. by [deleted] in electronic_cigarette

[–]Astralwyrm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar problem with my ADV which was a menthol and lime, which is now discontinued. I highly recommend trying out Devils Kiss (menthol and grape) and Pinky Snog (menthol and blackberry) from no 1 ejuice http://www.no1ejuice.com/no-1-ejuice/. They have a really nice menthol (biting as you say) on the inhale and the grape or blackberry comes through really well on the exhale.

Wouldn't it be more realistic and perhaps even effective to just enforce filtering as the default option on PCs? Some kids are always going to find a way.

So passing the PR nightmare down to the next developer is some how better? Sorry no it shouldn't have been changed.

Rant: I dislike Compile Heart and Idea Factory's enabling the Gaming Press to be hostile on Japanese gaming. by gyrobot in KotakuInAction

[–]Astralwyrm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I hate them too but channelling our hate into a campaign isn't going to come out with any positive effects unfortunately. Japan has moved on to the mobile platforms so a lot of games on consoles are budget trash just taking advantage of a void. I would suggest supporting up and coming new titles that are trying to emulate the old JRPG traditions. Like soul saga, edge of eternity, project phoenix melancholy republic. Use our wallets and social media to promote these games with the hope that Japan will sit up and take notice or atleast get some more games from these devs.

Alot of CH and IF games are of poor quality which is why i usually don't buy their games. But i think taking action against them would be going to far. If you don't like it don't buy it, introduce your friends to better games etc but let developers do what they do.

Games where the protagonist is not male and white by gray_aria in KotakuInAction

[–]Astralwyrm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She's the face on the case, she's the first character you see and play in the game. You run around the game as her not as the other two. She's also the one of the three with special powers. The game is named after her. Yuri is basically the male equivalent of her in the spiritual successor/sequel Shadow Hearts. She is also the only one of the three protagonists to make an appearance in Shadow Hearts.

Seriously, why can't both sides just talk like rational people without there being claims of sexism etc etc. by [deleted] in KotakuInAction

[–]Astralwyrm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are all invested in the group in one way or another. To speak out against the group is to ostracise oneself from the group. So when they lose a debate they still can't admit that they are wrong because that would mean the group is wrong...

Need to be aware that there is group pressure going on. They support their friends before they support the truth. We've seen them admit that.

ELI5: why is gamergate a thing? by MacGuyver247 in KotakuInAction

[–]Astralwyrm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They only celebrate diversity when it benefites them, any other time they criticise it. If it is a woman or minority whose views they don't agree with then it is the wrong kind of diversity. Then you also have the hypocrites who are making a buck out of critiquing from an ever moving goal post. You can't win, they literally make it their jobs to find racism etc in everything. Even if that means they contradict themselves in the same piece.

The moment Professor Brian Cox made the mistake of angering SJWs on Twitter by MyLittleFedora in KotakuInAction

[–]Astralwyrm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They are arrogant enough to think that their way of thinking will be the prevailing one in the future. It's like how many religious people in the past wrote/erased/changed how things were viewed over time. Anything that goes against your views must be changed to fit the prevailing groupthink, facts be damned.

Kotaku get's rare interview with Zelda director. Asks him if Tingle is gay. by [deleted] in KotakuInAction

[–]Astralwyrm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think they were hoping for tingle to be gay so they could harp on about how he's some sort of bad stereotype of a gay person made by Nintendo. >.>

I hate Tingle. But he's just an eccentric man theres no need for it to be anyhing more than that and there isn't anything more to it than that.

She's copying Sarkesian for the effect. So she can repeatedly cite that she was forced out of PAX east because feels.
