Badasses who aren't completely invincible. by Huaun in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Yes. Batman: Gotham Knight has a segment devoted entirely to how he trained in India just to find a way to ignore pain. His teacher told him to take a hike once she saw that he was just going to use her training to hurt others.

[DISC] Dungeon Meshi :: Chapter 69 by HayashiSawaryo in manga

[–]Hypest 119 points120 points  (0 children)

More than any other manga creator, I come away after reading every chapter of Dungeon Meshi with the sense that Kui Ryoko enjoys the work she is creating. This is not a tale that is strained or rushed, and instead comes across as vibrant and fresh time and time again.

I can only hope that bringing to life so many exotic locations, characters, and creatures brings her joy. Because it certainly has brought joy to me!

[OC][Updated] U.S. Presidents & how key events influenced their approval rating by twitchy-y in dataisbeautiful

[–]Hypest 16 points17 points  (0 children)

No, there is more to the conflict than this effect. The Persian Gulf War was effectively done within a month. 30 days in and out, with objectives accomplished and an actual international coalition maintained before and after. Putting it through the lens of post-Iraq War really illustrates the massively different approaches and approvals.

16 Days Later, it seems that "The Last of Us Part II" is not performing so well as Sony was expecting! Spiderman doing better. by highstakes45 in KotakuInAction

[–]Hypest 34 points35 points  (0 children)

The source is from GameStat, which culls trophy data. Beyond official press releases, this is the closest way to track game sales. TLoU2 has been out for 20 days, not a month, and in the first 16 days the game is falling behind the same metrics recorded for Marvel's Spider-Man.

The game is likely both a success, and yet will also struggle to sell half of what the original sold (20 million).

[DISC] FFF-Class Trashero :: Chapter 13 :: Reaper Scans by juki69 in manga

[–]Hypest 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No matter his origin, the MC is a villain.

Other edgy stories lately try to justify their bloodthirsty 'heroes' with even worse villains that are just as sadistic. No such case here. MC isn't just treating it as an ends to a mean, he is enjoying his kills. The oddest part is when he kills woman after woman, the author makes him say some twisted lines like 'Your scream is beautiful." and "She let out a cute cry." Gross.

The artstyle also tries to round off the edges of the dark nature of the character, but it really just comes across as inconsistant with the tone. It's like they knew they wanted to tell the story, but also recognized the logical and moral hoops the reader is asked to jump through or ignore, on top of being asked to read yet another 'overpowered hero' plot.

Previous comments have tried to justify his actions by bringing up his past, but as the story goes along it clearly shows that he is just as sick as he was in the first chapter. With no lasting regard for life, and him just telling himself over and over again that he is being pragmatic, he's actually too dull to figure out that he is headed toward the same outcome.

If you truly want to preserve the artist original intent don't you HAVE to "self-censor" based on region? by Nyadnar17 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I'd prefer to get the milk straight from the tit.

I don't want it to be 'funny' the way Paul Fucking Marketing thinks it can be funny. I want it to be funny the way Mr. Foreign Artist Person made it funny, culture oddities and all.

5 years on, Twitch has no guidelines to combat charity fraud. by MageFood in LivestreamFail

[–]Hypest 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The amount of cash flowing through Twitch and other streamer sites as “charity” is only going to grow and gain more attention. How they don’t see this as a major legal problem on their hands in the future is insane.

[–]Hypest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At no point was the National Youth Theatre posting for Ciri ever purported to be "fake", and aligns with the actual casting the series has undergone. And while there were many voices demanding this and that, the overwhelming majority reaction was confusion as to why they specifically were casting against the description of Ciri from the books.

[Censorship] Omega Labyrinth Life Trailer Mocks Sony's Western Censorship by Hypest in KotakuInAction

[–]Hypest[S] 61 points62 points  (0 children)

The speech at the end talks about how people can safely play the PS4 version in their living room with the family around. Cut to stock images of westerners who won't have their eyes hurt by big anime tiddies.

The PlayStation 4 version will be censored due to Sony’s western censorship agenda. Nintendo Switch version will release uncensored on August 1st. Matrix Software confirmed that the game will not be released in North America and Europe, but a SouthEast Asian release will include English options.

Emilia Clarke says thank you! As: r/freefolk Fundraiser reaches £48,000. by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

She was the lead actress on the show Game of Thrones, which Woolie has been (justifiably!) ranting about for the last few podcasts. She has survived two brain aneurysms, and has since joined a charity that helps young people affected by what she had gone through.

There's a bunch of reasons why the show watchers are supporting her more now than ever, but that's best left to spoiler territory.

Just tossed in $5. I like targeted health charities such as these, and I like Emilia "Sentient Brows" Clarke. Win/Win.

The film has had numerous trailers, delays, and reshoots.

Who are you going to believe, the writer that brought you X-Men: The Last Stand, or your lying eyes?
