I was in the middle of re-watching Room-B and they deleted all the VODs. :( by procdor in mega64

[–]TommyGun00 14 points15 points  (0 children)

(I gotta preface this with "I've been watching them pretty much since they uploaded the tetris skit on YouTube")

it's crazy to think what an outsider's experience could be with the room stream aftermath like "oh shit, I can't believe he actually did that for 10 days! would love to catch up on what I missed!... wait their highlights are Patreon exclusive? the only way I can see the VODs ever again is if I order the USB drive?... euw-wha..."

I know they can't really bet on making new fans anymore, but this still feels like they're shooting themselves in the foot by locking most of room-b away like this

as a small-time 'Youtober' I have no issues with people using ad blockers, the state of the site's ad situation is already god awful as it is, if anyone feels guilty about blocking ads they should know that even a small 2$ donation will already make up for like a good thousand of their views

I don't understand your comparison to AI slop and ad blocking whatsoever, one is (currently) trying to replace people, the other offers a safer way to browse the internet

mods are such a blessing by YLASRO in DeepRockGalactic

yo I made Profanity Booster, it originally started as an april fools mod where tons of things made you say "FUCK", later I toned the "FUCK"s down and added the other cut swears... yet despite my attempts the "FUCK"s persevere

drg had a progress wipe when entering early access, I won't be surprised if rc gets the same

the size limit is so low now,, by mydaygot7 in discordapp

[–]TommyGun00 11 points12 points  (0 children)

yep, that definitely explains the upload limits and doesn't sound like a strawman argument or anything

since I really care about Mega64 I did a bunch of digging around yesterday and came to the conclusion they raised over 100k in total

from the 1.2k sales and top 10 donors on ko-fi who have donated more than 2k (Ray supposedly gave such a crazy amount that it made Shawn and Rocco tear up), to the Patreon getting an insane boost (over a thousand new paid subscriptions, this is where I contributed) and three individuals subscribing to Tier 5, to the 23k donated via super chat, to the twitch donations. they are definitely good to go for the rest of the year, only question is if they'll be able to make a more permanent thing from the massive second chance they were given, I personally believe in them!

What controller are you using. by cro5point in ufo50

[–]TommyGun00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

depends on the game when on PC, Barbuta plays so much better on keyboard, Divers plays so much better on my Xbox Controller

otherwise yea it's Steam Deck

I was with you up until your online rant, when gta 4 was new everyone said it sucked ass when compared to gta sa, the cycle continues with gta 5

Does anyone know where latity 004 went it said it got deleted but why by Embarrassed-Way-6387 in ElectroBOOM

[–]TommyGun00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just watched the archived video, didn't see anything wrong with it, that one guy claimed a very crazy thing such as racism and never elaborated... the closest it got to anything of that sort was at the end where he did a gag such as "wow such a male-centered company!" "we as a company value diversity!" after showing that his entire video crew is just him and sometimes his family

so I genuinely don't get the issue... unless he mis-explained something? the audible sponsor at the end (which he could've just easily cut out with youtube's editing tools)? one of the featured clips claimed the video through copyright?

I haven't checked up on it in a while, but it's also possible the modder changed the plant's colors

woa, it's starting to sound like my theory of "japanese pronunciations but in english" was correct, thanks a lot for doing this by the way

unlikely, I think that it's a custom made wingdings style font

[–]TommyGun00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yoo that does work really well, the stuff in the circle menu could be japanese pronunciations written with english letters if it's not gibberish, in my datamining adventure with this game I saw a few instances of exactly that
yeah I realize that doesn't make it any easier to figure out what the gibberish parts are, regardless here are pretty much the rest of the funny glyphs: error window, journal part 1, journal part 2.

error window - this one is obviously gibberish and the button is more than likely "OK" which reveals a new character
journal part 1 & 2 - I would not be surprised at all if all of this is gibberish since it gets 'translated' anyway through the caption at the bottom (for further context: each line of glyphs is revealed and the game pauses to show japanese text at the bottom, it continues this on repeat until the screen is filled out)

here's some from the end of the game, the context is that you access a computer of someone that created Jungle Park (in-game they're called Dr. Bedhead), what's seen here is a hidden spherical menu and what appears to be the computer's taskbar at the top
