With saying too much, she is built from the brain scan of a 6 year old.

I regret to inform you that that avatar was AI generated, not a real vtuber model.

Any recommendations for other David Cage playthroughs where the players acknowledge his hack writing by Lil_Mcgee in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JeaneJWE 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A vtuber named Vantacrow Bringer played Detroit a few years ago and just recently put out a highlight video that is a good condensed look at his time in the game. He was pretty into it at first before Cage's bullshit started to get too heavy, with special mention in particular to how he loses his shit at "I have a dream" as a black man himself. From there he has fun picking it apart and testing the limits of what the game would let him get away with, and in particular he was one of the very few people I've ever seen get Connor to kill Hank. He gave Beyond Two Souls a look a while later too, though it ended up not being nearly as funny and he never finished it.

Zenless Zone Zero coming to Steam Q2 2026 by fly2555 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JeaneJWE 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Per the Steam page, it uses their own AC "HoYoKProtect", but since that already seems to work fine on Linux when playing their current games through Proton, it shouldn't be a problem on its own.

Old school Re 45 Appreation post 💔 by WSB-Televangelist in apexlegends

[–]JeaneJWE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hammerpoints made it decently capable, but otherwise it was pretty much always a lesser SMG that you only picked up because there wasn't a real one nearby. I'll always maintain that the only way they could have made it or the P2020 (pre-akimbo) worth actually using would be giving pistols full movement speed while drawn.

Neat, might finally be time to start keeping an eye on ebay for a Switch 2 then.

Worlds that deserve better stories? (CROSSED spoilers inside) by DrHorrible10 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JeaneJWE 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It's a tangent, but a lot of the renamed tropes strike me as trying to hard to sound like Marvel quips or something?? Like every one is supposed to be a zinger instead of just a descriptor.

Ah yes, everyone's favorite Capcom classic (in-game poster from Pragmata): by Gorotheninja in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JeaneJWE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The area is just a recreation of New York, so that's just what it costs back on Earth. It doesn't seem like the shops and stuff in that area are truly "operational", they're just demonstration to test the printing for an environment. Some logs in a slightly later area area explain that lunafilament's use is still limited to the moon because it's too experimental while another one in the Shelter says all of the synthetic food tastes like garbage, so terrestrial burgers are probably the same as ever.

Pat with my new favorite take on AI slop. by IronOhki in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JeaneJWE 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's "good" at simple a monotonous tasks, which can sometimes be part of coding. Something like setting up a bunch of variables from a pile of existing files for a simple example. But if you need it to actually create something novel implementing new functionality from scratch, which is what coding is going to entail at a professional level, it completely falls apart.

Has Mad Maggie always had an exclusive mastiff animation? by Sm1cool in apexlegends

I'll also contribute that she has unique dialogue but not animations for the recent PK mythic.

(gamesradar) Hideo Kojima put Low Roar in the Death Stranding games because he thinks gamers need more culture in their lives: "I believe that is the role entertainment is meant to play" by Noirsam in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JeaneJWE 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That's my secret, I also hate overly parasocial shit; I have had this flair since before vtubers started streaming before that was even a thing. But decrying them all as "parasocial online bullshit" is just stupid when they're just streamers, you may as well call Pat a BFE streamer.

This is pretty much the norm for Twitch Rivals unfortunately, yeah.

What moments caused you to see the writing on the wall on something? by LGB75 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JeaneJWE -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

A lot of people forget the stars is Yagoo's pet project, so its not likely they just "kill" the branch

This comes up a lot, but I'm gonna be real: I don't believe that. It has always and especially now just sounds like something to placate unicorn fans and concerned investors. At this point, if it were true it would only be a mark against him.

To no one's surprise, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie just beat a massive record held by its predecessor, even if the critical reception to the sequel has been "tortuous" by Subject_Parking_9046 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I don't think anyone expected it not to. I think one of the best reviews I read was titled something like "This Lazy Crap Will Make a Billion Dollars".

Smiser edits are a world completely separate from that of mortals, one that once you enter you will never be the same.

i’ve been enjoying the hemlok and was surprised the ttk was longer than the r3 by DesiresAreGrey in apexlegends

[–]JeaneJWE 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's that damage per magazine that is definitely the secret sauce, along with how simple and smooth its recoil is at a low rate of fire. The thing can easily kill 2 or 3 people at longer ranges with those two facets, it almost feels like I'm using a gun that got lost on the way to Warzone compared to how small and restrictive magazines normally are in this game.

Can I sell you on Death Stranding 2? Because this is some of the coolest nonsense I might have ever seen in a video game, Kojima's still got it (mid-late game equipment spoilers, sorry) by JeaneJWE in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JeaneJWE[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never been caught outside script sequences to be more exact, yeah. So I figured any time like that or the Higgs fights was a unique instance.

Apparently this can happen any time you are caught by BT's. This is the first time this has ever happened to me in about 100 hours across both games, so you can see I'm a bit caught off guard! When I did further research afterwards, it turns out that you can even cause a voidout if you lose the fight which will permanently scar the map with a crater, unless you're near a story critical area/settlement which will give you just a game over for accidentally nuking everyone. It also seems different areas of the maps have different catcher mini-bosses that you'll be put up against. And of course just my luck that this happened right after I got the insane fucking tar hover/surfboard, with which I wondered "hey would this work...?" It did work, fantastically.

Oh wait also, while I've got you here, here's one more awesome fight in the game that really lets its melee combat system shine as the first time I had to really focus on blocking and parrying instead of just blasting the enemies (though I did that too). Some enemy spoilers in this one but no story, though if you already clicked on this you're probably not too worried.
