02:37:07 Devastator: heyo ER.
02:41:02 ER: helo
02:42:22 Devastator: I think the odds of the ork cannon killing are about 35%, so not that bad odds.
03:00:13 ER: ...is that in a turn, or over the whole course of burning down the wall?
03:01:32 Devastator: this turn.
03:02:38 Devastator: If I'm not hit, I don't think there will be any trouble, as a steady stream of frag grenades would keep the wall clear.
03:02:49 Devastator: If I am hit I doubt the orks will finish off the target.
04:17:19 MidJag has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:17:22 MidJag: lo
04:24:25 Devastator: Rock Stability Nominal, yo.
04:24:49 MidJag: eh?
04:24:59 Devastator: just an allegiance quote.
04:25:06 Devastator: one of the in-base quotes for the Belters.
04:25:26 MidJag: Ah
04:25:37 Devastator: and all bases are built on rocks.
04:26:01 MidJag: Ah
04:30:08 MidJag: This is a cool video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNJQdruGAbs
04:33:18 Devastator: indeed.
04:33:29 Devastator: also depends on who you have and the desired feel of the movie.
04:34:11 MidJag: Yeah
04:36:19 MidJag: I've always liked corrirdor as a channel
04:41:08 Devastator: got to the part with the actual shot where they splattered the guy holding Adam Savage.
04:41:17 Devastator: was thinking the VFX guys would win the time challenge until the moment.
04:41:26 Devastator: but having to splatter up another person makes it significantly harder.
04:41:35 MidJag: Yup\
04:44:02 MidJag: Adam Savage is just very entertaining
04:44:03 Devastator: mmm, didn't count any time for the vfx knife, either.
04:44:08 Devastator: also those fighting shots are just awful.
04:44:14 Devastator: is that really what they consider good these days?
04:44:30 MidJag: what fighting shots?
04:47:15 Devastator: they were talking about the VFX knife thing and showed some fighting shots from modern clips.
04:47:18 Devastator: they look so bad.
04:47:28 ER: that's a good shot tho
04:48:05 ER: modern movies like to cut way too much in action scenes, I think
04:48:17 Devastator: yeah, but hauling weapons entirely through bodies just looks bad.
04:48:28 Devastator: that's not reasonable for someone to actually do.
04:49:12 ER: heh, the first shot they show of that is their own thing
04:49:17 ER: for shadow of mordor
04:49:39 ER: it's very much something which videogame characters do, I suppose
04:50:00 Devastator: Yeah, that's more reasonable, but gah.
04:50:09 ER: the ability of models to just clip through shit impacting people's perception of reality
04:50:51 Devastator: they not counting rendering time?
04:50:53 Devastator: ;-p
04:54:37 Devastator: oh gee, they come to the conclusion of 'both techniques have advantages!' ;-p
04:54:58 ER: lol
04:55:22 Devastator: which is completely true.
04:55:51 MidJag: heh, yeah it's not exactlly groundbreaking, but it is a fun video
04:56:22 Devastator: Yeah, I mean..
04:56:36 Devastator: there were lots of movies that went over the cliff of too much digital. Seeing that swing back a little can only be good.
05:01:45 Devastator: Shouldn't go back all the way, though.
05:02:53 ER: yeah
05:03:40 ER: I mean, it's a decent takeaway that practical stuff gives you good performances and and still be polished up with cgi
05:04:50 Devastator: Mmm hmm.
05:05:15 Devastator: and can give you stuff you'd never do on digital.
05:05:26 Devastator: because something weird-but-real happened.
05:09:34 ER: yeah
05:10:23 ER: the splatter on the other guy's face in the first shot looks perfectly exaggerated, but it's just what the fluid decided to do :D
05:10:43 ER: reality is unrealistic
05:10:47 Devastator: It's beautiful! As soon as I saw that I was like 'no way they gonna match that.'
05:18:13 MidJag: Yeah that first shot was fantastic
05:23:35 ER: I am now watching adam's twice as long video of making the thing lol
05:24:10 Devastator: hah.
05:25:28 Devastator: did he film himself making it?
05:28:46 ER: so far he went on a tangent about the cheap knockoff stilettos hollywood was using
05:28:57 ER: and how he couldn't find any these days
05:31:33 Devastator: Quality is too cheap! ;-p
05:32:16 ER: I do like how he's not including like, research and getting the materials in the timer
05:32:23 ER: but I guess it's fair enoguh
05:33:25 MidJag: Yeah. I mean they don't count render time for the VFX, so it seems to be about even :P
05:34:44 ER: it didn't seem like stuff which would take much to render?
05:34:52 Devastator: 'getting the materials' might include computers and software.
05:34:54 ER: like, no complicated 3d
05:35:05 MidJag: That's a good point ER
05:35:16 MidJag: I dunno what kinda render times you'd deal with there
05:35:35 ER: I think it's mostly just flat stuff and getting it all into the right places
06:52:45 ER: blorble
06:52:55 Devastator: Crisis? ;-p
06:53:05 ER: I'm really not sure why I'm not in bed
06:53:20 ER: what should you fight in crisis?
06:53:38 Devastator: gonna be a fight room?
06:53:45 ER: I dunno
06:54:04 Devastator: ahh. well, could be a loot room or bonus room or something. Or a dungeon item, zelda style.
06:54:14 ER: I guess I could give a group fight and show why you kinda need a party in this system
06:54:20 Devastator: but if it's fight, how about another demon, one unlucky to be stuck in the crappy dungeon.
06:55:18 Devastator: Yeah. I mostly want to, if possible, get some levels so we can assert ourselves wolf-style who is the strongest character. ;-p
06:55:38 Devastator: as befits a character with no proper socialization.
06:56:33 Devastator: (I think group fight should be after this one, if we get one now.)
07:07:36 MidJag: I should go to bed
07:09:14 MidJag: goodnight
07:09:20 MidJag has quit []
07:20:19 ER has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
07:41:51 Devastator: mmm.
07:41:58 Devastator: also awakened the SG looks like Cataclysm.
