00:00:05 ER: yup, it's just not under the comic itself
00:00:48 ER: Of course my hunger for comments leads me to look at the reddit page for schlock mercenary because the site itself lacks comments.
00:01:07 ER: Half the fun for me is SPECULATION
00:24:06 Devastator: ayo.
00:24:15 ER: hio
00:24:30 Devastator: Last Crusade?
00:24:40 Devastator: I should have about 100 minutes before I have to get to work.
00:25:30 Devastator: well, that is, prepare for my friends.
00:28:22 syv: We can do that.
00:28:34 syv: I was looking a pictures of guns instead of writing, anyway.
00:28:46 ER: lul
00:29:30 syv: ...Hum, need to put the movie on the good comp.
00:29:34 Devastator: ok.
00:35:23 ER: snack food get
00:36:30 Devastator: I'm all set.
00:36:41 syv: 60% done
00:37:30 syv: Dev just told me a secret about ER's character in birdgame, and then I pointed out that he was actually talking about my character, and giving me important information I didn't know already.
00:37:50 syv: And movie's done.
00:38:11 ER: nice one, devvy
00:38:14 Devastator: Eh, there's important and then there's stuff you would have noticed in about two turn.
00:38:26 Devastator: If not one turn.
00:38:37 syv: System Primed.
00:38:47 Devastator: Yeah, you're in the building, right?
00:38:50 Devastator: (ER.)
00:39:03 Devastator: I'm all set.
00:39:03 ER: I'm in a building.
00:39:12 Devastator: Well, nobody else is in one, so that's you.
00:39:14 ER: System. Primed.
00:39:17 Devastator: okay.
00:39:23 Devastator: we go in..
00:39:24 Devastator: 5
00:39:26 Devastator: 4
00:39:28 Devastator: 3
00:39:30 Devastator: 2
00:39:32 Devastator: 1
00:39:33 Devastator: 0
00:39:43 ER: guess nobody else went anywhere *civilized*
00:39:43 syv: PARAMOUNT PICTURE
00:39:50 ER: and rocks
00:39:58 Devastator: Well.. yeah. Death doesn't have too many visitors.
00:40:00 ER: and shrubs!
00:40:10 Devastator: MJ's place is civilized but he's got other stuff going around.
00:40:47 ER: dat rock's gonna fall
00:40:54 syv: hawrses
00:41:06 ER: wide hats
00:41:08 syv: Nehehehehe!
00:41:37 ER: slowcombe, now that's a name
00:42:16 ER: spooky cave
00:42:27 syv: With creepy laughter.
00:42:37 syv: All the fairy magic sound effects.
00:43:24 syv: "This isn't my hat! HE has my hat!"
00:44:12 ER: theft!
00:44:16 syv: Little thief.
00:44:22 syv: ...Ninja.
00:44:49 syv: Heh. "Eveybody's lost but me."
00:45:05 ER: whistle and your horse shows up instantly, just like in the games
00:45:15 syv: Well trained.
00:45:49 syv: WHY would he do that?
00:46:03 ER: bonus points
00:46:44 Devastator: They made a game of this, btw.
00:46:55 ER: did he just fucking kill that innocent snek
00:46:57 syv: Of course they did.
00:47:02 Devastator: It's really good, actually.
00:48:03 ER: awww
00:48:08 ER: cute kitty
00:48:11 Devastator: Well, at least he has a reason for the whip affinity.
00:48:22 syv: So he got ALL his signatures in the same day?
00:48:28 ER: of course
00:49:08 Devastator: It's action heroism 101.
00:49:42 syv: Oh, I thought he was gonna take the guy's hat.
00:49:44 ER: snacks: consumed
00:49:47 ER: all out
00:49:52 Devastator: Hello, Indiana.
00:50:59 Devastator: I like the obligatory white suit.
00:51:03 ER: bad guy looting vs good guy looting
00:51:29 syv: Ahh. There we go.
00:51:30 Devastator: Some things are taken, some things are given. ;-p
00:52:24 syv: Welp, there's the first murder.
00:53:00 ER: and they say uncharted has ludonarrative dissonence~
00:53:27 ER: !
00:53:39 syv: Um.. How many murders was that?
00:53:56 syv: Five? Plus however many were in the hold?
00:53:57 ER: Pretty sure that was an RTD 1
00:55:22 ER: archeology isn't following treasure maps, but it is punching dudes on a boat
00:55:54 syv: Most action/adventure movie plots make more sense in context of actually being an RTD.
00:56:06 ER: Most things do, really.
00:56:08 Devastator: Yeah, probably.
00:56:17 ER: It's the most realistic rolling system, after all.
00:56:17 Devastator: Fiction has to make sense.
00:56:22 syv: Romance movies make less sense.
00:56:24 ER: Even reality!
00:56:46 ER: see 2016 elections. Makes more sense if we assume an RTD system.
00:56:54 syv: "Wait, why did he run away with the girl? There were more dudes to punch! XP, man, XP!"
00:57:02 Devastator: Heh.
00:57:34 syv: Yeaaaah, Trump figured out that if you dump cha, wis, and int, to get enough points to afford every rep-damaging feat, you can win easy.
00:58:04 Devastator: I do like how it took one day to find out how his new pick for Attorney General was running scam companies in Florida last year.
00:58:14 syv: Flawlessly reading even the broken off section of the tablet, nice.
00:59:02 ER: this movie now mothy python
00:59:09 Devastator: It could be.
00:59:31 syv: ...I want to see a literal mothy python.
00:59:36 syv: Hybrid moth/snake.
00:59:52 Devastator: You like both of them?
01:00:42 syv: https://twistedsifter.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/caterpillar-that-looks-like-a-snake-elephant-hawk-moth-2.jpg
01:00:45 syv: (Yes)
01:00:59 ER: ooh, pretty
01:01:07 syv: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/dc/1f/13/dc1f13da2d7ccdfcdaff3f4a958baa10.jpg
01:01:21 syv: I'm unused to Google so readily showing me exactly what I want to see.
01:01:24 Devastator: Just no.
01:01:35 Devastator: The physics of that body are terrible.
01:01:57 syv: Plot twist!
01:02:04 Devastator: Dun dun. Dun dun.
01:02:08 ER: whatatweest
01:03:16 syv: Check the LAST ENTRIES, fool!
01:03:34 Devastator: It's got inserts all over it. The last entry is the location it was mailed from.
01:03:37 ER: I did play the lego indianna jones game, so I might semi-know the plot of this movie. Except that was back when those games had no actual voice acting, so actually I know nothing.
01:03:46 syv: Oh, I recall that portion of the ending. Nice foreshadowing.
01:03:48 Devastator: I've played Graphical Adventures.
01:04:16 syv: I've seen the movie, but probably the better part of a decade ago.
01:04:26 Devastator: Been five or six here.
01:04:40 Devastator: Stopover in Gander..
01:07:00 syv: Stained glass murals are pretty.
01:07:16 ER: yes
01:08:06 ER: of course
01:08:41 Devastator: yes.
01:08:45 ER: kek
01:09:00 Devastator: Rule of narrative convienence.
01:09:16 syv: Hahaha.
01:09:46 syv: Apparently his father found a less destructive way in.
01:09:54 Devastator: Well, yes.
01:09:57 Devastator: Indy is kinda crude.
01:10:07 ER: fuck it, just hit it
01:10:24 ER: huh, time to look for traps~
01:10:27 syv: Synonyms, ER.
01:10:41 Devastator: Don't worry, it's trapped.
01:10:59 syv: I see luger, I say Nazis.
01:11:08 ER: fez!
01:11:09 Devastator: Nazis with fezes?
01:11:22 syv: I saw the luger before the Fez.
01:11:24 Devastator: 'That was the first movie.'
01:11:54 syv: And poison gas.
01:12:03 Devastator: Doctor Destructo the archaeologist.
01:12:24 syv: Yes, light a torch after you took a petroleum bath.
01:12:33 ER: and it's a bone
01:12:41 syv: Set the rats on fire!
01:12:44 Devastator: one of those lovely movie-quality bones.
01:13:20 syv: WHY is she still in heels?
01:13:34 Devastator: You know why, syv.
01:13:37 Devastator: it's a movie.
01:13:39 ER: doesn't want to get her socks dirty
01:14:09 ER: are they still wading through petrolium?
01:14:19 syv: Bet you it'll all catch fire later.
01:14:22 ER: knight!
01:14:25 ER: no bet
01:14:45 syv: He wasn't even watching where he shoved that torch.
01:15:11 ER: lol
01:15:12 syv: Called it.
01:15:26 syv: As if it wasn't obvious.
01:15:28 ER: crafty nazis, though
01:15:32 Devastator: Better or worse than big rolling ball?
01:15:39 syv: Uhh.
01:16:47 ER: I'm disappoint, no actual traps
01:16:51 Devastator: That was pretty slick, actually.
01:16:54 Devastator: The oil wasn't a trap?
01:17:05 ER: no?
01:17:05 syv: It didn't seem to be intentional.
01:17:06 Devastator: Venic isn't on petroleum deposits naturally..
01:17:11 Devastator: I thought it was.
01:17:29 Devastator: This isn't Baku circa 1938.
01:17:35 syv: There were lots of coffins sunk in the oil.
01:18:19 ER: because that would make a boat explode
01:18:25 Devastator: What kind of gun is that?
01:18:33 syv: Forget the name offhand.
01:18:48 syv: Sten?
01:19:05 Devastator: Aren't Sten's not particularly nazi?
01:19:23 syv: British, IIRC.
01:19:47 ER: that was a silly
01:20:22 Devastator: Not nazis after all
01:22:35 syv: Oh, IMFDB says it was a mauser pistol, not a luger. Embarrassing, but no more logical.
01:22:50 Devastator: not period appropriate?
01:23:04 Devastator: weren't there lots of knockoffs of those?
01:23:06 ER: mouse
01:23:07 syv: Just as appropriate, but still a Nazi gun.
01:23:37 ER: yeah but that's normal for you
01:23:47 syv: Uhh.
01:23:54 ER: uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
01:24:10 syv: Kay then.
01:24:11 Devastator: uhh?
01:24:40 Devastator: It was a dark and stormy night.
01:25:14 ER: frik
01:25:57 Devastator: The video game has a way to talk past that guy.
01:26:04 ER: heh
01:26:11 Devastator: You can also do exactly that.
01:26:12 ER: oh neat
01:26:15 ER: nazis
01:26:21 syv: "Nazis. I hate these guys."
01:27:19 syv: IMFDB also says the SMG was a MP28, which is something I just don't know of.
01:27:37 Devastator: That's amazing.
01:27:56 syv: I'm much worse at old guns. And there's plenty of modern guns I don't recognize.
01:28:26 Devastator: "I wish I could identify all firearms of all time periods."
01:31:09 syv: Okay, I hadn't realized Indy shot people.
01:31:17 ER: yeah he shoots people
01:31:21 Devastator: He does it a few times.
01:31:22 ER: well, nazis
01:31:26 syv: THAT'S a luger.
01:32:16 ER: predictable
01:32:33 Devastator: There's about 12 different ways to get through this castle in this game, too. Ranging from taking out every guard in the castle so the guy can't find anyone to arrest you with, to some very slick moves such as giving him the wrong book.
01:32:38 syv: Who knew, the woman with the german accent is a german.
01:33:22 Devastator: If you do either of those you get to skip quite a few things..
01:35:18 ER: obviously not a nazi
01:35:28 Devastator: Slick work Marcus.
01:36:02 ER: LUL
01:36:08 Devastator: Worse than Toadstool.
01:36:59 Devastator: They also haven't learned not to talk in front of the prisoners unless it serves your purpose.
01:37:54 syv: Now he kisses him!
01:38:01 Devastator: Heh.
01:38:47 syv: Nice.
01:38:55 ER: now everything catches on fire
01:38:56 Devastator: Could see someone doing that.
01:39:02 syv: Absolutely.
01:39:20 Devastator: The fire caught a bit quickly, though.
01:39:23 Devastator: movie time.
01:39:29 syv: Kinda wondering why they soaked the carpet in gasoline, though.
01:39:33 syv: ...Ninja.
01:39:38 Devastator: I do love it.
01:40:28 Devastator: It took them probably less than two hours to send the message to capture brody, to then capture brody, search him, and send a message back.
01:40:29 syv: Hah.
01:40:37 Devastator: Into the fireplace, out of the fire.
01:40:38 ER: The nazis left them tied up in a flammable room as a method od execution because these two always light stuff up
01:40:40 syv: Unusually competent for Nazis.
01:40:53 Devastator: Marcus is just worse than Toadstool.
01:40:55 Devastator: but yes.
01:41:10 syv: And then they miss every shot from five feet away.
01:41:13 Devastator: Failing to shoot two people who were tied together to chairs ia about standard for nazis.
01:42:20 syv: More movies should be written like this.
01:42:25 syv: It's silly, but so fun.
01:42:32 Devastator: Yes, it's good.
01:42:49 Devastator: This bit is good, though.
01:42:59 Devastator: shoulda waited one more minute.
01:43:28 syv: Synchronized goggle donning.
01:43:37 ER: they train for that
01:43:39 Devastator: I wonder where they shot this bit.
01:44:46 syv: Hahaha!
01:44:48 ER: unreasonably effective flagpole jousting
01:44:51 syv: I like this Nazi.
01:44:57 syv: Aww.
01:45:01 Devastator: No brains, but style.
01:46:25 syv: Wolf's den*
01:46:42 Devastator: That was in Austria, though.
01:46:56 syv: Was it?
01:47:08 Devastator: I'd have to check, but I'm about 80% sure.
01:47:18 syv: Meh, I suck at history.
01:47:40 syv: Such happy music!
01:47:57 syv: Happy Nazis.
01:48:11 syv: That was fast.
01:48:26 Devastator: Another thing you can do is steal a blank travel pass from the castle. If you come here in the game, you can get Hitler to sign blank travel orders, also letting you skip the whole 'sneak out of Germany' bit.
01:48:55 Elastic_Ridicule has joined #einsteinianroulette
01:48:58 Devastator: You know he punched someone for that uniform.
01:49:34 Devastator: I think in Ark there's a bit where he does that but the guy was too small so it didn't work right.
01:50:04 Elastic_Ridicule: now punch hitler in the face
01:50:13 Devastator: You can -also- do that.
01:50:21 Elastic_Ridicule: ...can you get away with it
01:50:28 Devastator: Sadly, but understandably, no.
01:50:28 syv: Surely.
01:50:34 syv: Aww.
01:51:13 Elastic_Ridicule: well that's gonna burn
01:51:28 Devastator: the airship?
01:51:36 Devastator: Yeah, I think it'd have hydrogen in it.
01:51:48 Devastator: 1938 right?
01:51:50 Elastic_Ridicule: the rule of this movie: if it's flammable, it'll burn
01:52:02 Devastator: And sometimes if it isn't.
01:52:08 Elastic_Ridicule: yes
01:52:15 syv: Indie is a proper Hitman.
01:52:44 ER has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
01:52:44 Elastic_Ridicule is now known as ER
01:52:53 syv: Hah.
01:52:56 ER: heh
01:53:10 syv: Why is there an attached plane?
01:53:16 ER: reasons
01:53:31 syv: I'm sure it'll be important later.
01:55:21 ER: answer me my questions three...
01:55:42 ER: ere the other side ye see
01:55:50 syv: "Just say yes to everything and you'll be fine."
01:55:52 ER: plane time!
01:56:17 syv: Yep.
01:56:43 ER: use the gun!
01:56:48 syv: Top CGI.
01:56:55 syv: Those fighters are shit.
01:57:35 syv: Is he useful for anything at all?
01:58:01 ER: land yes!
01:58:16 ER: if in a rather kerbal sense
01:58:22 syv: I like how it stopped shooting *before* they got to cover.
01:58:46 syv: That poor guy.
01:59:12 syv: Well he was dedicated.
01:59:22 syv: Hahaha, his face.
01:59:23 ER: haha
01:59:37 syv: "Why did I decide this was a good idea...?"
01:59:55 ER: watched too much star wars~
02:00:13 syv: You'd think he'd've realized you can't shoot Han Solo, then.
02:00:26 ER: revolver's empty without any brass in it? but he was firing it earlier!
02:00:50 syv: Well, I guess he's useful for something after all.
02:02:33 syv: Give him a car, he gives you tanks. Deal of the century.
02:02:40 ER: oh hey those guys are gonna be relevant again
02:03:22 ER: ...creacky tanks
02:03:26 syv: ...Wait, why did Nazis need to be *given* tanks?
02:03:33 ER: shrug
02:03:38 ER: forgot to pack them
02:03:48 Devastator: The guy wants to show off his tanks.
02:04:01 ER: or maybe their mission to recover the holy grail was underfunded
02:04:21 syv: Sounds reasonable.
02:04:30 Devastator: You're not even out of range of small arms.
02:04:35 ER: yup
02:05:01 syv: Out of range for their accuracy. They're Nazis, their range is like two feet.
02:05:05 Devastator: You missed?
02:05:13 Devastator: How did you miss the guy standing still on top of the tank?
02:05:36 ER: in this universe, correctly aligned sights do not exist
02:05:41 syv: Wilhelm scream!
02:05:55 ER: you can only hit things using luck
02:06:02 Devastator: RTD, maybe.
02:06:17 syv: And if you take the time to aim, it only guarantees that you'll miss.
02:06:39 Devastator: That's a pretty chill horse.
02:06:45 Devastator: Quite the stunt.
02:06:52 syv: Why were they keeping a prisoner in a tank?
02:07:02 Devastator: They didn't want someone sniping him?
02:07:11 syv: Unaccompanied?
02:07:15 Devastator: if the prisoner has valuable information, or is a hostage.
02:07:22 Devastator: Yeah, that's a bit odd.
02:07:37 syv: Even for RTD.
02:07:40 Devastator: Also the stunt.
02:07:47 Devastator: you could see that's actually harrison ford.
02:07:58 syv: Horses hate camels.
02:08:10 syv: Most critters do.
02:08:15 Devastator: You can get them used to them, but yeah.
02:08:25 Devastator: Don't you have a machine gun on that thing?
02:08:33 ER: of course not
02:08:47 syv: This is more fun.
02:08:50 ER: tanks don't have puny little machine guns, they have CANNONS
02:08:52 Devastator: stupid tinpot leader pimped his tank.
02:08:55 ER: everyone knows that
02:09:08 Devastator: no machine guns! ALL CANNON!
02:09:12 Devastator: Mall Tanker.
02:09:38 syv: And they forgot to oil the turrets, too.
02:09:45 ER: horse doesn't like being shot at by a tank cannon
02:09:47 syv: Rock beats tank?
02:10:01 Devastator: This is more specific than that.
02:10:20 Devastator: but you know what the tanker says, right? If the infantry is right up on you, you're in a bad, bad place.
02:10:22 syv: Rock beats tank.
02:10:35 syv: He should've just stuck his finger in there.
02:10:49 Devastator: That's also trusting how tightly you've pushed that rock in there a lot.
02:10:54 Devastator: I can forgive them hitting nothing here.
02:11:03 syv: Absolutely.
02:11:08 Devastator: I mean one is riding a horse going full out and the other is riding a tank bouncing around.
02:11:24 ER: and they're using pistols
02:11:27 syv: Wow.
02:11:37 Devastator: I don't think a rifle would help.
02:12:07 syv: That is a brutal death,
02:12:40 syv: Wish I spoke German.
02:14:32 syv: Half expecting him to just let go and realize the tank's moving like 8 mph.
02:14:46 syv: ...Nope. Sad.
02:14:51 ER: now that was some kind of repeated six
02:16:04 ER: nazi officer dude lost his hat, his source of power
02:16:13 syv: But Indy did, too.
02:17:24 ER: hey guys, what's up
02:17:32 Devastator: Indy's hat isn't his power source. It puts a limit on it.
02:17:56 syv: Heh.
02:17:57 ER: casually survives, like a true action hero
02:18:03 Devastator: Brody, it's not that hard to figure out.
02:18:06 Devastator: Are you that bad?
02:18:17 syv: Yes, yes he is.
02:19:02 Devastator: I like this bit.
02:19:25 syv: Horsies!
02:19:26 Devastator: That's a real, contemporary place.
02:19:42 syv: There should be more horses in films, too.
02:19:45 Devastator: Sadly, in reality there's nothing inside.
02:19:49 Devastator: Yeah, don't see them as much anymore.
02:22:58 syv: Loudest pistol.
02:23:08 ER: well, they ARE in a cave
02:23:13 Devastator: more realistic volume.
02:23:35 ER: well they probably all should be deafened for a minute
02:23:44 Devastator: he did shout the next line.
02:23:56 Devastator: and what kinda pistol was that?
02:24:13 syv: I don't know. Semiautos are hard, moreso when old.
02:24:22 Devastator: a .32 maybe?
02:24:29 syv: IMFDB says it was a PPK.
02:24:42 Devastator: so not particularly loud then?
02:25:11 Devastator: no traps, eh ER?
02:25:12 syv: Pistols are loud in general.
02:25:25 ER: this is a totally different place, dev
02:25:42 Devastator: I think the sword guys filled the tomb with oil so they could set it on fire.
02:25:43 syv: Merely kneeling there would've gotten him bisected. He had to roll before God too.
02:25:56 Devastator: fire won't destroy the rock tombs, but kill interlopers.
02:26:23 Devastator: but that's just a theory.
02:26:46 ER: a GAME ther-
02:26:55 Devastator: No it isn't.
02:27:32 Devastator: One of the most spectacular matte paintings in movie history.
02:27:45 syv: That was a painting
02:27:48 Devastator: Yes.
02:27:49 syv: ?
02:27:59 Devastator: this is a painting.
02:28:04 Devastator: the long shot.
02:28:12 Devastator: this shot too.
02:28:24 syv: I thought he threw dust over it?
02:28:44 Devastator: As I said, two paintings.
02:28:46 Devastator: ;-p
02:28:47 syv: You know, dust would settle over it regardless.
02:28:52 Devastator: Yeah.
02:28:54 ER: maaagic
02:28:58 Devastator: maybe the knight sweeps up.
02:29:01 syv: I suppose magic just wards away the dust.
02:29:08 syv: Or the knight, yeah.
02:29:36 syv: Perfect english.
02:29:44 ER: he
02:29:50 Devastator: He's got a radio in there. ;-p
02:30:40 syv: I like his little glare there.
02:30:49 syv: "You let NAZIS in here, you idiot?"
02:31:09 ER: she's gonna die
02:31:17 syv: Of course.
02:31:40 syv: She shook her head.
02:32:49 Devastator: Ahh, the age before CGI.
02:32:52 syv: Hey Dev! Hair lengthening for Nam!
02:32:59 Devastator: Heh.
02:33:43 syv: Wouldn't the cup of a carpenter be wooden?
02:33:54 Devastator: wood cups are terrible.
02:33:58 Devastator: clay would be fine.
02:33:58 syv: Sure.
02:34:29 ER: so wait, they're both immortals now?
02:34:38 syv: I guess.
02:34:40 ER: or do you have to keep drinking?
02:34:41 Devastator: I think you ahve to do it repeatedly.
02:34:44 Devastator: you die if you stop doing it.
02:34:51 syv: Plenty of time for his father to procrastinate about getting to know him~
02:34:52 Devastator: The other knight in Venice died, after all.
02:37:12 syv: And then he does the exact same thing.
02:37:21 ER: and thus we learn a valuable lesson: don't get greedy, idiot.
02:37:45 syv: Knight is disappoint.
02:38:11 Devastator: 'ahh, well, I'm sure someone will come here in another fourteen hundred years.
02:38:13 Devastator: '
02:38:24 syv: Place collapsed.
02:38:34 syv: Ain't nobody coming back to replace him.
02:40:11 ER: "Well we didn't really accomplish anything, but we sure beat up some nazis!"
02:40:18 syv: Well that was fun.
02:40:20 Devastator: Worth watching, ER?
02:40:23 ER: yeah
02:40:35 Devastator: Yes, that michael moore.
02:40:53 ER: less stupid than what we were watching before
02:40:59 syv: I feel really sorry for the knight, though. He waited seven centuries for someone righteous to come along, and they immediately collapse the place, lose the grail, and kill him.
02:41:18 Devastator: Eh, his soul is ready.
02:41:46 ER: "God actually damn it, guys."
02:42:16 Devastator: The horseman was called Bronco McLaughlin?
02:42:21 syv: "Helmut Fodschuk"
02:42:44 syv: Sztompke.
02:42:56 Devastator: Hmm.
02:42:59 Devastator: reminds me of a story.
02:43:05 syv: Keith Thompson!
02:43:28 Devastator: The guy playing the Texan in Dr. Strangelove walked onto the site. Someone then told him to get out of costume. He wasn't in costume.
02:43:58 syv: "Dick Rust", the horse wranglee.
02:43:59 Devastator: Corky Randall, Gene Walker and Dick Rust.
02:44:03 Devastator: My god those are cowboy names.
02:44:22 syv: Who the hell names their kid "Dick Rust", though?
02:44:46 syv: The dad was Sean Connery?
02:44:52 Devastator: Who the hell names their kid River Pheonix?
02:44:57 Devastator: And yes, that was Connery.
02:45:19 syv: At least River Pheonix at least is a combo of two cool words.
02:45:25 Devastator: shot all over.
02:45:41 Devastator: And Bovington gave them the tank.
02:45:45 syv: Dick Rust, though? He's a rusty dick? There is NOTHING positive about that name.
02:45:53 Devastator: Lots positive.
02:46:01 Devastator: Who the hell is going to pick a fight with a man called dick rust?
02:46:13 syv: Dick Stainless?
02:46:42 ER: dick stained
02:47:01 syv: Dick Richardson.
02:47:27 ER: dick dickdick dick
02:48:04 Devastator: Anyway, I'm off, thanks for watching.
02:48:11 Devastator: Glad you liked it.
02:48:49 syv: Bye.
02:48:56 ER: buh-bye now~
02:51:53 ER: alright!
02:51:56 ER: now, you!

04:48:08 ER: ?
04:48:58 syv: Am I still stream Deltarune tonight?
04:49:10 ER: you have internet?
04:49:21 syv: I'm at work, and the weather is clear.
04:49:31 ER: oh yah
04:49:41 ER: I'd watch :)
04:49:48 syv: If anything happens that requires me to do anything, I'll have to stop, but that's like a 5% chance.
05:00:47 syv: Does Deltarune require much W-pressing, and if it does, can it be rebound/played with a gamepad?
05:00:55 syv: My W key is bad.
05:00:59 ER: zero w pressing
05:01:09 ER: arrow keys, z, x, c
05:02:24 syv: Also, I have SURVEY_PROGRAM_WINDOWS_ENGLISH now. Anything I should know?
05:02:24 ER: I have no idea if it natively supports gamepad, and I think you can rebind keys
05:02:51 ER: Nope, that would just be the installer
05:03:12 ER: Oh.
05:03:20 ER: Don't run the uninstaller.
05:04:35 ER: Apparantly it just deletes the entire folder that it's in, which is PROBABLY not a problem, but also has the ability to delete your computer if you happen to install the game in the most stupid possible fashion.
05:04:49 ER: So don't do that.
05:05:07 syv: That's a... worrying license agreement.
05:05:24 ER: I'm sure it's fine~
05:06:16 syv: Buuut it would take too long to set up a virtualbox, so Toby has my trust.
05:06:26 syv: I'm installing it two subfolders down from Desktop.
05:06:55 ER: Well, if you want to get rid of it you can just delete the whole folder.
05:07:43 syv: Goodie.
05:08:03 syv: I think my phone's dying.
05:08:22 syv: It's running now. Waiting for it to pause so I can screw with Obs.
05:08:33 ER: I mean, the thing with the uninstaller is pretty much a non-problem except for in the worst possible scenario where the user is absolutely incompetant, but you asked if there was anything you should know and that's what people keep saying you should know about the game so I'm passing it on.
05:13:12 ER: I have your strem on main screen, will listen to RUINER ost till you start~
05:13:38 syv: I have pretty much completely forgotten how to obs, please stand by.
05:13:49 ER: heh, all good
05:14:37 syv: THERE we go.
05:14:41 syv: Working?
05:14:46 ER: yesh
05:14:53 ER: go on
05:14:57 syv: Can you hear me?
05:15:01 ER: create your little vessel
05:15:05 ER: no hearing voice
05:15:14 ER: now hear voice
05:16:22 ER: like it or not, this is peak performence
05:16:54 ER: A, AB, B, C, D
05:19:00 ER: :P
05:19:17 ER: surprise goatmom
05:20:57 ER: Gerson is the turtle, yes.
05:23:02 ER: Chara is the default name for whatever name you enter at the start of Undertale.
05:23:07 ER: Stream is fine.
05:26:21 ER: tem has... EG
05:34:35 ER: Her name is Susie. :P
05:39:03 ER: They're all OCs though
05:41:24 ER: were there clouds?
05:44:57 ER: when bullets glance your hitbox, you get special meter for magic and stuff
05:45:25 ER: Remember that your wonderful creation was discarded.
05:45:37 ER: What you chose is of no importence.
05:46:16 ER: F L U F F Y B O Y S
05:49:04 ER: They're not hitting you
05:49:10 ER: your hitbox is tiny
05:49:25 ER: you glance off bullets to gain TP
05:50:34 ER: Also, Defending in combat is good because it gives you TP. So if you're not doing anything else you can fall back to that.
05:51:04 ER: the fluffy boy has a healing spell that uses TP.
05:51:53 ER: he also has a spell that puts tired enemies to sleep.
05:52:37 ER: Ya really need to stop telling your mage to attack and then totally missing the attack...
06:00:08 ER: armor and cuteness!
06:05:19 ER: though, it's notible that hitting things just causes them to run away rather than die in this game.

06:25:18 ER: I'm making syv play DELTARUNE right now
06:25:25 ER: https://www.twitch.tv/syvarrisvutheniama
06:26:18 MidJag: syv, you're kinda quiet.
06:26:25 MidJag: volume wise
06:27:52 MidJag: Is that sans in a pulled up hoody?
06:28:00 ER: probably~
06:28:19 MidJag: I see, so where's his bro?
06:28:39 ER: he has no bro
06:29:37 MidJag: ..Didn't he? I thought like he had another skeleton guy
06:29:48 ER: LANCER has no bro
06:31:45 MidJag: Oh right, undertale is like half RPG, half bullet hell
06:32:30 MidJag: So syv are you not playing genocide?
06:32:48 ER: Not like he has a choice
06:32:48 MidJag: Ah
06:33:15 MidJag: Well it's background is peacful so I shall leave it in thebackground while I finish this
06:33:18 ER: you might notice that this game has a recurring theme of your choices not mattering.
06:36:26 MidJag: So this game is about the utter nihilism of the human exsistence in which given time even the very essence of the cosmos will eventually fade from veiw?
06:36:38 ER: probably
06:37:32 MidJag: Neat
06:38:00 MidJag: Wait, is this a machine that you then have to fight?
06:38:09 ER: yes
06:39:01 MidJag: It's like that bell in greek myth
06:39:09 MidJag: With the birds, I can't rember the name of.
06:41:28 MidJag: This seems nice
06:41:40 ER: why did you walk back...
06:43:18 MidJag: I'll be back
06:43:21 MidJag has left #einsteinianroulette
06:44:30 ER: player character slowly heal back from negative hitpoints once downed
06:44:44 ER: ...and that includes when you're fighting them
06:46:32 ER: clouds!
06:47:13 ER: warm and fluffy!
06:47:23 ER: just like ralsai
06:47:42 ER: probably not warm OR fluffy up close
06:48:19 ER: I know, living in the mountains.
06:52:16 ER: less of a hitbox and more of a hitpixel
07:14:57 ER: You only lose if all party members are downed.
07:15:27 a has joined #einsteinianroulette
07:15:38 a: okay
07:15:50 a: i don't know what that means, but okay
07:16:00 a is now known as potato
07:22:16 ER: ralsai is indeed an anagram of asriel
07:22:32 ER: AND deltarune is an anagram of undertale :P
07:26:23 syv: ER? End?
07:26:33 ER: you can explore the whole town, but I
07:26:40 ER: 'Ve alreayd seen it
07:29:42 ER: longer if you don't refuse to explore anything.
07:29:45 syv: Done, I guess.
07:29:55 syv: I explored! Just only early on.
07:30:03 syv: also, I was referring to the song.
07:30:30 ER: Remember that time near the start where there was a branch, and you said "fuck it" and took the main path?
07:31:21 syv: Yes.
07:31:35 ER: Well there was a puzzle over there guarding a key fragment, and if you collect all three key fragments you can get the blacksmith to fix them into a key and that lets you unlock a door in the castle basement.
07:31:43 syv: Ahh.
07:31:44 ER: And then you get an optional boss!
07:31:59 syv: Is the optional boss important in any way?
07:32:02 ER: Also, the town is big.
07:32:23 Devastator: back.
07:32:26 Devastator: heya potato.
07:32:35 syv: I *am* kinda curious about what the townsfolk say, but I figure most of it's not story-relevant.
07:32:41 syv: Is Susie around somewhere?
07:32:56 syv: Hi, Deb.
07:33:11 Devastator: No interest in Undertale 2, I'm sorry. :(
07:33:18 ER: Well, you talk to the shopkeeper as part of unlocking the boss, and he pretty much says "well, nothing you do matters anyway, so you may as well fight this guy"
07:34:03 syv: I just finished, so no worries Dev.
07:34:49 ER: The town contains... most of the characters from undertale, but talking to them reveals that they're not the same versions of those characters. Some alternate universe whatever.
07:35:13 syv: Is the Sans dad thing around somewhere?
07:35:19 ER: And it also indicates that you character is acting unusually when under your control.
07:35:27 syv: The one that speaks in wingdings?
07:35:38 ER: No gaster.
07:35:50 ER: But... he's a secret anyway.
07:36:33 ER: Also, Asgore gives you a hug, and you can find a locked door out in the woods with creepy machine noises coming from inside
07:36:59 ER: You also won't find any humans, only monsters.
07:37:14 syv: Hmm. I look forward to the game completing, so I can read about all the fun stuff people come up with.
07:37:21 ER: And you can't find Susie, unfortunately.
07:37:27 syv: Probably won't play it, though.
07:38:38 ER: Also, you pretty much could have been fighting the enemies that whole time. They flee when they hit 1HP. It's impossible to kill anything.
07:38:45 ER: No earning XP
07:39:02 syv: Oh, that would've been nice. I should've just tried it.
07:39:20 Devastator: Is Deltarun fun?
07:39:24 ER: Judging from the ending, you might earn XP during the night.
07:39:33 syv: Sure, Dev.
07:39:44 ER: uh, if you like bullethell rpgs
07:39:52 syv: It strikes me as being appropriate for the 12-16 age range.
07:39:58 ER: not hard though, aside from the secret boss
07:40:04 Devastator: ok.
07:40:32 Devastator: ..although I've spent much of the past week watching a man torturing himself play a game intended for that age range.
07:40:40 Devastator: (Pokémon Crystal.)
07:41:32 syv: A little while ago I watched a series of Age of Empire videos about "The Legend of Fatslob", which was probably equally as wise.
07:41:49 syv: What was he doing in this run of Crystal?
07:42:12 Devastator: Playing with six Smeargols.
07:42:21 syv: Did you link this?
07:42:24 Devastator: A pokemon that can only learn one move per ten levels, and can only learn moves used on it.
07:42:26 Devastator: A few times.
07:42:45 syv: Because I think I tried to watch it, and then ended up quitting because I had to wait way too long for it to buffer.
07:43:13 ER: There is a different ending to the final boss, where all the monsters flood up and overthrow the king.
07:43:39 ER: Not sure what triggers that to be honest, as you didn't really do any fighting...
07:43:40 syv: That honestly doesn't strike me as all that bad. Sure, you've gotta grind a fair bit, but beyond that, Smeargol isn't a horrible pokemon. I'd think it's relatively easy lategame, once your team is all trained.
07:44:12 syv: If they all like you, and they think their king is vulnerable, they'd totally overthrow him.
07:44:24 Devastator: The stats on it are terrible.
07:44:26 syv: Every character who mentioned the king mentioned the king being bad.
07:44:30 Devastator: It's got use as a support unit.
07:44:44 ER: Maybe you just have to do a ton of spares and you rushed the game too much.
07:44:49 Devastator: When you have nothing but six support units, you're in trouble.
07:45:08 Devastator: But yeah, the early game has most of the worst parts.
07:46:22 ER: But yeah, unlike undertale, deltarune has no signifigant plot branching, and repeatedly tells you that your choices don't matter.
07:46:49 ER: Anything that you do will end up resulting in the same basic outcome.
07:47:11 syv: That seems pretty disappointing.
07:47:47 syv: One of the best parts of Undertale was the fact that there were several different--SIGNIFICANTLY different--endings.
07:47:51 Devastator: Part of the decline in hatred though is acceptance that his pokemon are incapable of dealing damage.
07:48:14 syv: *significant damage
07:48:30 syv: Every attack move always does at least 1 HP of damage, assuming it hits.
07:50:00 Devastator: Fair point.
07:50:17 Devastator: still, watching one of them fail to kill with a x4 effective attack is impressive.
07:51:40 syv: Hey, ER, do you still have the link for the FS folder? I just uploaded E10, think the original link should still work... but I lost it.
07:51:55 ER: nope
07:52:10 ER: ...
07:52:12 ER: I mean yes

07:52:35 ER: damn technology making it easy to find things
07:53:16 Devastator: Heh.
07:53:31 Devastator: So how did the king get to be king in the first place?
07:53:36 Devastator: People just change their minds?
07:53:38 syv: Looks like it did, cool.
07:53:49 syv: I presume he was created as the king.
07:54:00 syv: Undertale doesn't seem big on origin stories.
07:54:10 ER: There used to be four kings and he BEAT THE SHIT out of the other three
07:54:51 syv: They respawn every ninety seconds, though, so he's pretty busy.
07:54:58 ER: It's a playing card themed world and he's the king of spades
07:55:18 ER: nah, the three kings are locked in the dungeon
07:55:30 Devastator: Better origin stories than One Punch Man?
07:55:43 ER: ?
07:55:58 ER: OPM has like, good origin stories
07:56:45 syv: I don't recall a single one of them. >.>
07:57:09 Devastator: ..aren't they terrible?
07:57:27 Devastator: Genos is an orphan who had his body rebuilt as a Cyborg for Justice.
07:57:28 ER: Well we watched the anime version, which probably cut down on the exposition.
07:57:48 Devastator: ..I've looked at the manga some. It isn't any better.
07:57:59 Devastator: anime version is definately the best.
07:58:08 ER: Silly doesn't mean not good
07:59:57 Devastator: Fair enough.
08:00:11 Devastator: I think it's a rule in the OPM universe that everyone must have a stupid origin story.

08:07:10 Devastator: Can I get orders from Birdgame? I'd like to update it on Monday sometime.
08:07:37 syv: Oh yeah, I meant to tell MJ to do that.
08:07:42 syv: MJ, give Dev orders.
08:08:05 MidJag: oh yes, I'll do that now, sorry I've been kinda buried recentlly.
08:08:41 Devastator: Yeah, it's no problem. I can just skip you in the future.
08:09:13 Devastator: since we're doing this through PM, asynchronous turns are workabl.e
08:09:58 Devastator: so I could get to you later.
08:11:25 MidJag: Nah, I'll do it now

08:35:39 syv: Have a good selep.
08:35:39 Edgy_Raptor: <3 ya, MJ
08:47:30 Devastator: Is it possible to mollify Kali if she's pissed due to altar destruction?
08:47:49 Devastator: apparently one damsel and three yetis aren't enough.
08:48:37 Edgy_Raptor: You end up with... spiders attack you, stage turns dark, ghost chases you, ball and chain. I think.
08:48:54 Devastator: oh, I meant making her happy.
08:49:03 Devastator: wow, four altars to get a ball and chain.
08:50:00 Edgy_Raptor: I think her opinion of you is just a number that goes up and down, so yeah enough sacrifice can make her forgive you.
08:51:28 Devastator: What's a ball and chain like? A heavy object you must stay within reach of?
08:51:40 Edgy_Raptor: pretty much
08:51:46 Devastator: sounds amusing.
08:51:48 Devastator: I'd watch that stream.
08:51:55 syv: Ball and chain run?
08:53:27 Edgy_Raptor: I don't rember exactly how it works, but I made a really annoying cuton level where you have to ledge grab, flip hang down through spikes, and move through a tight space like that while you have a ball and chain with a ghost chasing you.
08:53:58 syv: A part of me wants to stream DaS, since I can, but my brain is saying I'm tired, and that the true darkness mod would make for a horrible stream.
08:54:10 syv: Crouton level. Yum.
08:54:38 Edgy_Raptor: anyway https://youtu.be/MejbOFk7H6c
08:54:43 Edgy_Raptor: bye
