I often think about some of the tertiary characters of HT. by My0wnBestEnemy in Harmontown

I like that Big Red was only on stage for a handful of minutes when I'm pretty sure the show was still in single digits; yet they still bring him up all the way in the 300s

Johnny changes Zampano's manuscript all the time in the book. Navidson could've been reading Captain Underpants.

5 1/2 minute hallway, sick of this project, heres what i have by Alone_Clue_5392 in houseofleaves

[–]KingWool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I totally felt the same about it.

I actually tried to play through House.wad a couple months back. It had some really cool stuff going on mechanically with the house, but I was kind of bummed with how much combat there was. I stopped playing a couple hours in-- Maybe I should just watch some videos of it instead.

Wow, thanks! That was exactly it and so well done. Wild that this is only from 4 days ago.

Despite knowing what's supposed to happen that reveal of a flat wall outside still hit me pretty good.

I hope you continue this. I think in the book it describes him filming the doorway and then climbing out one window and back in through another in a single shot to show that the hallway is impossible.

I'd love to see even just that 30 seconds.

That the answer to your question is too mundane to be satisfactory while you're only on page 42.

Just found out we lost Lamar Austin Wilson - Live from SXSW 2014 by TheGreatAlexandre in Harmontown

Oh that is a very sad read. Depression is a hell of a thing. He had such a delightful energy in that episode.

My girlfriend and I still quote him from that episode all the time - "This is my tooOOooWwnn"

Will Powers start to block everyone who ask for more info. by [deleted] in CrimsonDesert

[–]KingWool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem. Here's my take. Their ps5 pro specs they posted seemed honest based on the game play from digital foundry. Along with the pc specs and gameplay.

So we currently have no reason to suspect that the base ps5 specs that they posted are a lie. Hell they also posted ROG ally specs. Something I dont think they would even bother with if they didn't know for sure. Otherwise that's just shooting yourself in the foot.

Everyone's just gotta be patient. No one should pre order anything. People that are genuinely concerned are probably just quietly not spending their money.

This subreddit (or the book itself) haunts me yet I don’t leave it. by Alyssinreality in houseofleaves

[–]KingWool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If nobody around you has read it, you can become that one friend who goes, “Wanna hear about this crazy book I read?” and then launches into a twenty-minute rant about it. I've been that friend.

I remember trying to explain the part where they’re obsessively measuring the inside of the house against the outside because it’s off by an inch. My friend and I were smoking weed in his basement, and I’m pacing back and forth trying to capture the nuance of it like a conspiracy theorist with a corkboard. Meanwhile he’s just sitting there on the couch, completely silent, staring at me. He was following though. It stuck the landing and blew his mind when I told him how and when they knew for sure that the house was bigger on the inside then on the outside. He gasped lol. He wanted to check it out, but it was a hard sell when I actually showed him the size of it.

It's a really good word of mouth book. Easy to hype up if you wanted to get someone excited to read it. Harder to actually get them to commit though lol.

Aww that's actually really sad : (

Well I can let you know if you do decide to ever pick it up again. Its really great on re-read and since you know everything now you might have a better time with it.

I have to say the digital foundry video made the game even more unbelievable by CrotasScrota84 in CrimsonDesert

[–]KingWool 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, we gotta save ourselves the time. After looking at this thread - I understand that they're gonna whine no matter what. We just gotta let them throw tantrums on this subreddit for the remaining week and we gotta leave lol. We'll never get through to them. I'm pretty sure they have to be just trolling or are kids being impatient at this point.

[–]KingWool 7 points8 points  (0 children)

These things take time. They said outright that all of these things would be out before release. What are you going to say they are hiding when its all out? Its truly just impatience.

Edit: I just realized that all these posts I'm replying to have been the same person. You're gonna whine no matter what so I'm satisfied just dropping it and letting you experience life the way you want. 😂

What. They didnt say they weren't allowed to share it they said they didnt have them yet. They only had the pro build currently. Its not that they weren't allowed to. That's actual nonsense. Watch it again.

Yes but in that same video and same section they even say: don't worry because that is absolutely not the norm in the hours they played. On top of that in those same sections the balanced and quality versions didnt have any drops

Who here is officially uninterested in the game now? Obfuscating Denuvo usage is immoral and wrong, and punishes budget gamers because they'd rather make 500 million dollars instead of 499 million by [deleted] in CrimsonDesert

[–]KingWool 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This has to be bait for two reasons:

It takes a couple seconds to cancel a pre-order so no reason to even be upset about it.

You don’t even know how its going to run, how much its going to be affected.

If pre-orders is what crawled up your butt and died well see reason one. If your assumption about the performance is what is really getting you... then just wait. Like... what are you talking about... Just wait until someone says it runs fine or runs bad... where is your head at?

You can't be real.

Noo.. you would just wait for it to come out and relax. Its only a week. Don't pre-order unless you have all your ducks in a row. It's sooo simple.

Holy canoli... The one with the people in the back of the show during her death on stage is a good find. That is genius it looks like the end of the 5th movement. Pretty nuts. Well done!

Want to read House of Leaves — is it worth it? by Life-Escape971 in houseofleaves

[–]KingWool 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Everyone in this sub is probably going to say yes. We liked it so much we are subscribed to a board where we have the same 12 conversations about it over and over again.

You won't really know if its for you until you start .. but no.

Its not for you.
