05:02:18 Devastator: did your finals go well?
05:03:39 MidJag: I only had two which was nice.
05:03:49 MidJag: The rest I got to take as optional
05:03:56 MidJag: And I didn't need to take them.
05:04:26 Devastator: an optional final sounds weird.
05:04:50 MidJag: Yeah. It's like someo proffesor let you just not take the final if you like your grade in the class.
05:05:59 MidJag: Hmm, gotta go for a bit.
05:44:30 Devastator: posted in extinction.

14:29:51 syv: Oh, this is still connected.
14:42:54 ER: my birthday's next week, I suppose
14:46:45 ER: going to get my second shot on that day
14:57:43 syv: Not my kinda game, though.
15:48:40 ER: last one was 6 months ago, a welcome surprise
15:51:28 Devastator: yeah, I'll say enough boating.
15:53:40 ER: there's a lot of boat in HL2 :p
15:54:10 ER: and all concentrated in one section, cuz of how they designed the game I guess
15:56:22 ER: most modern high budget games would want you to use that mechanic several times throughout the game to mix things up, but HL2 is more like a bunch of games with their own gimmics concatanated together
16:07:24 Devastator thinks of the pegasus scene in Tales of Phantasia.
16:09:53 syv: I recall watching a "devs react to speedrun" video for HL2.
16:10:25 syv: At one point one of them said "there was certainly no arguments over whether the speedboat segment was too long"
16:10:34 syv: Followed by all of them breaking into laughter.
16:12:03 Devastator: might have been seperate teams.
16:12:11 Devastator: ie, one team did speedboat stuff and they had more time.
16:15:57 ER: HL2 did go through its own kind of development hell iirc, so the amount of time spent on various things might be wonky as well
16:20:58 ER: I love it when he mods the game so that gordon doesn't have to do something blatantly illogical
16:21:48 Devastator: I'm not sufficiently familiar with HL2 to spot them.
16:22:11 ER: that entire path he took to get down the dam I think was modded in
16:22:21 ER: normally you just drive off the edge of the dam in the boat
16:41:04 Devastator: the FREEMAN is too smart for that, eh?
16:59:57 Devastator: you know, everyone says they're looking forward to Ravenholm.
16:59:59 Devastator: which sounds lke fun.
17:00:05 Devastator: but I'm waiting for him to encounter snipers again.
17:02:06 Devastator: That's going to be epic.
17:02:15 Devastator: I remember his horrific experiences with snipers in FM1.
17:23:23 ER: my middle mouse click is starting to not work more often
17:23:49 ER: I think I feel it click but it doesn't register until I use a tiny bit more pressure
