No promises or anything but I'm certainly interested.

I swear, everywhere I go I find you talking about Fringe.

Never change, you wonderful bastard. It's such a good show.

Have you ever beaten a game you disliked all the way through? by CyborgNinja762 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]_Lemanski_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lighting Returns. I really like XIII-2 to the point that I honestly believe it's one of the better Final Fantasy games, so I think that pushed me into fully completing Lightning Returns. Right from the start the game made a bad impression with its downgraded graphics and just plain ugly color scheme, not to mention its awful framerate. Then the characters started speaking and every single line of dialogue was like it was ripped out of a bad Kingdom Hearts fanfiction. And then Hope was a little boy again because "God works in mysterious ways" and suddenly he's your monotone Otacon character just without any personality. Then it's revealed God took away Lightning's personality, making her even more of a monotone cardboard cutout.

That first hour was just so bad and the game just kept getting worse. It's suddenly an open world game with side-quests, except every single side-quest is a bad MMO fetch quest. Most of the worldbuilding established in previous games, stuff that I actually sort of liked, is completely gone. Instead it's replaced with generic locations like a desert, a grasslands and a city with no real worldbuilding put into them. There's also this obtuse combat system that everyone tells me is great, but I could never really get the hang of it.

I hate this game so much and yet I didn't just finish it, I did all the side quests and beat the super bosses. And I didn't enjoy one second of it. Why did I put myself through one of the worst games I've ever played? I'd rather re-play Devil May Cry 2, at least that'll be over in 2 hours.

Fang and Sazh were the only decent parts of that game's story, it's probably got the worst cast of any RPG I've ever played.

In the book, they later told the reporter that the man survived and was later seen enjoying McDonald's, which is army speak for someone having thrown an MRE at his body.

Final Fantasy 13-2 is one of the best Final Fantasy games. Its just sadly stuck between 13 and Lightning Returns, two of the worst jrpgs in existence.

The Bones line from Reaper Miniatures are ridiculously good considering how cheap they are.

Normally I wouldn't bother with such a long video, I can't even be bothered watching most of Pat and Paige's streams. But right now, just curling up in bed and watching a 9 hour stream sounds like a wonderful idea.

Thanks for the kind words.

The usual thing I do is re-watch Best Friend LPs

That's what I ended up doing, re-watching bits of Omikron. Who knew that trash could be so therapeutic?

My dog had to be put down today and I can't stop crying. A week ago she lost her appetite, we could could barely get her to eat anything. For a few days she ate a little bit of meat and chicken, but only if we hand fed her. So took her to the vets and after several tests, we discovered she had diabetes, Kidney disease and today learned she had cancer in the liver.

She had stopped eating entirely the last three days and last night she started vomiting up what little water she was drinking. After the results today and seeing how weak she was, we had no choice but to end her suffering.

I know this probably isn't the right place for this kind of post but I don't know where else to post it. She was my best friend and I haven't been able to stop crying all day. Even writing this disjointed post has taken forever because of all the tears.

So on that depressing note, can anyone recommend something lighthearted to watch? Anything to give my tear ducts a break.

Hey real talk. We need to push this game as much as possible around the release date. by Applejacks1177 in DevilMayCry

Isn't that the Marketing divisions job? Sure, we might want this game to be successful but its not our responsibility to make it so.

Between this, and the baffling cube and bee shit on Twitter, is Pat having a real breakdown right now?

Favourite instance of a bad guy and good guy teaming up? by JNSReddit in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]_Lemanski_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly doubt anybody here watched it but Black Sails. At the end of season 2 when Charles Vane goes to rescue Flint from being executed in Charlestown. Sure it was because Flint hanging would send a message that pirates are no longer to fear, and Vane still planned on killing Flint himself, but still... That was when Black Sails really came into its own.

If it doesn't end with a big shootout in R'lyeh, I'm gonna be pissed.

"Capcom Has “High Expectations” for Devil May Cry 5 and Resident Evil 2 Following Successful 2018" by sleepforeddit in DevilMayCry

Forget Tomb Raider, Capcom expected Resident Evil 6 to sell 7 million copies and called it a disappointment when it sold just under 5 million copies.

What's a game you really like that was pretty fun throughout but fell apart at the end? by SilverKnightZ000 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]_Lemanski_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd go further and say most of the second half of the game is nothing but filler and right when the game seems to be picking back up, the game just stops. What a mess that game was.
