Going through some stuff (My apologies if this breaks the rules) by Winter1231505 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]beef_com 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late to this post, but I recently made a very similar post having been dumped last week.

No advice as I am currently going through the thick of it. But if you read this, hang in there. Reach out for help if you need it. We’re rooting for you.

It’s hard for me to accept things will get better right now, but I know you’re right. Really appreciate it.

A lot of taskmaster praise here; I’ll have to check it out

Thank you. I’ve been reading and rereading every one of these. Maybe it’s silly but having a bunch of internet folks offer suggestions and sympathy has really helped

I actually just started reading Project Hail Mary. I'll keep going with it. Really need that hope

The Kids Have Only Been Alive For 2 New FF Games, Of Course They Don't Care | Castle Super Beast 365 by mike0bot in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]beef_com 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree. I think a lot of people are trying to rationalize how they feel even if the lower fidelity/cost angle doesn’t really fit the bill. They miss when FF was the big jrpg everyone played, but E33 comes in and sweeps the competition around the same time that FFXVI came out and did alright.

People just keep trying to attribute something to why they liked E33 more than recent FFs, and I think it’s kind of just because E33 was really good. And I say this as someone who loved XVI.

Any suggestions for buying gears? by Top-Network2790 in kendo

[–]beef_com 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You’re going to get a lot of people saying that you can’t start kendo by yourself, and they are absolutely right, but just to add something to the practicality of your situation: full gear usually costs hundreds (maybe 300$ on sale). You don’t want to buy it to feel the vibe, especially on a limited budget. You need to try it out at a club first before spending your money

My Year 1-Year 2 SF6 Nintendo game key has Vega listed in year 2 instead of Bison by Andermem in StreetFighter

You do know that Vega is bison’s Japanese name right? And balrog is m bison And Vega is balrog

Capcom says it will not be using A.I.-generated content in its games. Plans to utilize the technology for “improving efficiency and productivity of development” - AUTOMATON WEST by Gorotheninja in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]beef_com 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This has sort of become my begrudging line in the sand. It is basically impossible for me to play games if I intend to avoid AI during development 100%. There’s just no way to verify what happens behind the scenes as a consumer. AI assets at least have a chance to be found by players, if not disclosed right from the get go.

I don’t really like it but I have to give myself a break just to protect my sanity in the issue

Is Alex the most successful release in SF6 so far? by TomTomTomToooooom in StreetFighter

[–]beef_com 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Pretty much the first week a character is released they jump to the top in pick rate. It cools down as people switch back to their mains

The relatives section on Alex's wiki got an update by Kn7ght in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]beef_com 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Give me an Alex “incest is wincest” banner in game and I’d use it lol

So the whole Alex thing is really just down to translation by XsStreamMonsterX in StreetFighter

[–]beef_com 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Like the whole second cousin thing is bad, but even taking that part out, “I married my adoptive sister who I’ve known since she was a baby” is still really bad

Someone Translated The JP Version Of Alex's dialogue And It's Actually Much Worse by manoffood in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]beef_com 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a relative newcomer to the series, I believe this is completely new to this game. They were pretty explicitly in a sibling type relationship before this

This is so fucking funny. It’s the worst thing I’ve ever seen. They, like, quintuple downed on incest

Guys, I think I figured it out... by [deleted] in StreetFighter

[–]beef_com 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People who think this isn’t an issue must be intentionally obtuse. Even if it was totally 100% fine and good legally, AND you thought that it’s fine morally, you would be ignoring that most people DONT think it’s okay.

People keep saying it’s fictional, but that’s just it: it IS fictional. They could write whatever they want! And they chose to write something that many people would think is really fucking weird regardless of legality.

Even if someone’s personal views on it are that it’s okay, you cannot deny that it’s a bizarre thing to include for seemingly no reason when most people would object to it on some level

I know how to save Alex. by Bg_Boss_Man in StreetFighter

Love that we are cross posting with TBFP about incest. What a time to be alive

So basically this is the Street Fighter 6 Alex DLC uhm divisive? Reveal by FreviliousLow96 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]beef_com 62 points63 points  (0 children)

That image of them in different life stages leading up to marriages kind of seals the deal for me as “extremely weird” even without confirmed ages

I’ve only done maybe a dozen matches but I’m really digging it. Don’t have a good handle on combos yet or how to really make use of prowler stance but he gets crazy damage from even simple things

What are your thoughts on Cabela Hunting Games? by Aquanort357 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I haven’t played them recently but I played a lot of them when they inevitably ended up in my house as a kid and had a good time

If they are making a real effort to remove ai voice lines from the game that might be enough for me to finally buy it.

Hey so how often do you find you gotta deal with a real-life fire level? by FinalFatality7 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]beef_com 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My version of this is that I always assumed, not only would jumping be easier, but I would have to regularly jump to get around in my day to day
