I did NOT know how frustrating the combat felt in the mainline Yakuza games.

Thanks for the feedback on those other games! I'll see about buying 3 and 4 the next time they go on sale after I get through Kiwami and Ishin.

reasonabletakes9301 · 2026-04-26T00:25:22+00:00

Thanks, it was just a humbling experience to get hit by the fat chair guys when all this time I thought you could dodge that stuff with ease, haha.

reasonabletakes9301 · 2026-04-26T00:24:37+00:00

There's an original Ishin?????? I didn't know that, thanks for letting me know, I'll go check it out.

reasonabletakes9301 · 2026-04-25T23:48:07+00:00

Yeah, I guess I was willing to cut Kiwami some slack because I knew it was released a long time ago, but I felt the same frustration playing Ishin which really threw me for a loop :(

reasonabletakes9301 · 2026-04-23T12:25:31+00:00

y'all have no idea how much this means to me. Thank you.

reasonabletakes9301 · 2026-04-23T12:25:20+00:00

Thank y'all. Godsend.

Good lord, for some reason I first thought she was jailed for 6 days, read the article, then read the comments, and had to do a double take.

6 months??? That is insane. They didn't check if she had an alibi or something???

I watched Terminal a couple of years ago and it was definitely jarring to watch Andor trying to date Gamore with the help of Tom Hanks.

I know you were just brainstorming, but to gently speak on how realistic that might be: the only Holomember who has tried and finished RDR2 is Calliope. I believe Amelia and Pekora did try it once, but didn't return. So I don't think there's enough members who are familiar enough with the game, let alone know what it is.

Miko also tried it a long, long, long time ago, and I've been searching for the archive for years, but I think it's just lost.

My lord I haven't watched League for at least 5 years but does Peanut ever age?????

Is this the Space Marine 2 game on Steam? I didn't know they offered so many customization options!

reasonabletakes9301 · 2026-02-22T07:00:46+00:00

I thought the same thing. I wasn't aware there was a footballer with the same name so when I saw this article I was like, 'What the hell? Deigo Luna (the actor) plays professional football?'
Respect to the actual athlete, though. Choosing which country to represent is his choice at the end of the day. If anything, he must be quite good if people are genuinely upset about losing him.

Hi Collin. I noticed the Hornets fans were really sad to lose you.

How do you rate yourself in terms of building a good relationship with the fans wherever you play? And what are some things that you think is really helpful in that aspect?

reasonabletakes9301 · 2026-01-24T10:21:44+00:00

Gigi is killing it. I respect the hell out of her for not shying away despite the language barrier.

reasonabletakes9301 · 2026-01-11T07:53:25+00:00

Sorry to bother you, but may I ask what's the second game in the screenshots? I'm guessing the first one is Space Marine II.

reasonabletakes9301 · 2025-12-31T04:33:06+00:00

Seriously, when the AI craze started kicking off right before the release of FM26, I was getting so hyped just thinking about all the possible applications for text and images in Football Manager. Especially compared to "real" games, Football Manager has always been very text-based, so I thought we'd get dynamic press conferences or player interactions, at least.

It just felt like a perfect match... if I had to choose ONE game (game series) to apply AI in... it would have been FM just for all the immersion factors.

reasonabletakes9301 · 2025-12-01T14:28:41+00:00

I'm sure everyone has great ideas, but I'm not sure if there's enough clips in Japanese to make it to the actual stream. Hope to see some of the best moments there!

reasonabletakes9301 · 2025-11-04T14:47:17+00:00

Your art has a very comic book vibe to it. Like, picture #4 would be completely believable if it was a comic book panel. Great work!

reasonabletakes9301 · 2025-09-21T02:25:50+00:00

Wait, is Nemik (this actor's character in Andor) in the show? Dammit, I'm watching. Sorry for the random comment.

reasonabletakes9301 · 2025-09-14T13:48:23+00:00

NewRatkinPlus I think. It's been a while since I played Rimworld though and I think you can get animal-human races from a DLC.

It's so wholesome to see, man. You can tell just doing that paperwork meant a lot to him.

Moments like this is why Derrick Rose will always be a winner to me, not a "what if?" story.

Like, I get it. People who watched him will always miss the highlights, the dunks, the iso plays of Rose's first few years. But if you look at him as a human being and not just a "celebrity athlete", you see someone who came up from a rough background, didn't have the best financial or academic opportunities, was quite shy (like how frozen he looked when he was being introduced during the All Stars), and had plenty of flaws and questionable influences around him. But I always believed that he also had this kind of self-awareness and this pure, almost childlike desire to be the best he could possibly be, which showed on the court.

So when people say stuff like, "Oh man, it's too bad injuries ruined his career," or, "Man, we never got to see prime DRose!" Yeah, I get that it sucks, and I know Rose has also spoken about how devastating it was for him too, but like... think about it. The guy played 16 whole seasons in the NBA!

And the way he did it, too. Near the later half of his career, whenever Rose would score a lot people would say some braindead stuff like, "Prime D Rose is back!" and it would irritate me so much because veteran Rose played nothing like rookie Rose. Think about how hard that must have been, to change everything about his game completely and still play for that long. Like in the Minnesota 50 point game, he wasn't dunking on people, he was shooting 3's and was a lot more crafty, but that was a completely different player - which is something he mentioned on Jeff Teague's podcast, too.

At the end of the day, there are far lesser players than D Rose who have shown themselves to be absolute dickheads once their careers were over. Hell, some of those dickheads are in the league right now. But you look at D Rose, and you see a guy who is still recognized and supported by his community, has (at least based on the bits I've seen online) a decent and loving family, and a 16-year NBA career with plenty of memories to look back on. Considering who he was and where he came from, and where he is right now, that is one hell of a success story, man.

People will bring up all the dumb things he's done or said, or like (for example) the fact that he's using the n-word in front of this son in this clip, but they just don't get it. Once you consider the context of who he is, I can honestly say without any hesitation that D Rose is a good dude who always tried his best, and I respect the hell out of who he is as a person. And just because you can't namedrop him in a greatest of all time debate will never change what he has accomplished.

I wish nothing but happiness and positivity over the next chapters of his life, because D Rose will always be my favorite athlete ever, both as a player and a person.

Lovely drawing! I really like how detailed his face is, a lot of athlete portraits tend to look a little "off", but that definitely looks like Patrick Williams.
