03:09:56 Devastator: I'll do kaiju-com tomorrow.
03:10:03 Devastator: got soem work done but it isn't ready.
03:10:08 Devastator: and want to send in more orders.
03:10:24 Devastator: but I got other games to write orders for and it's getting latish.
03:11:35 Devastator: Gotta do warped and Cabal.
03:28:59 Devastator: I wish
syv was around.
03:29:07 Devastator: could tell him to animate the autocannon while we run.
03:34:13 Devastator: (well, he wouldn't, d4 freaking End.)

04:02:16 Devastator: yeah, kaiju-com shoudl be tomorrow.
04:53:46 parisbre56[Away] is now known as parisbre56
04:57:04 Devastator: ..I should ask if you're interested in kaiju-com.
04:59:56 parisbre56: sounds interesting but I'll have to see the end description to say for sure
05:01:02 Devastator: basically organizations that fight a steady stream of monsters through base-building, research, and field units.
05:01:12 Devastator: And mad scientists, to add some flavor.
05:02:27 Devastator: fuck up too badly or do nothing and get your funding cut.
05:02:40 Devastator: presumably things will go off the rails eventually.
05:04:15 Devastator: Just don't expect the kaiju to be vanquished accidently.
05:11:23 parisbre56: eh, I'm just thinking I might not always be able to come up with good ideas.
05:11:31 parisbre56: or maybe I'll go with something crazy
05:11:36 Devastator: don't worry about it then.
05:11:44 Devastator: or go with something generic.
05:12:12 Devastator: The 99th Generian Medium Infantry.
05:12:35 er: Well good, because I *never* have good ideas.
05:12:56 er: And wouldn't want someone making me look bad.
05:13:55 parisbre56: we're just going to bore the Kaiju to death by having everyone hide
05:14:07 parisbre56: nothing to smash: no fun
05:15:24 parisbre56: unless we go the Evangelion route and have them all try to reach some sort of secret underground lab where the key to conquering Earth is
05:19:30 Devastator: Lore-wise not everything will automatically fit, but that does sound cool.
05:20:57 parisbre56: heh. maybe I should just make an AI that will solve all our problems for us. Though knowing
Dev he'd just make it work with the Kaiju and murder everyone instead
05:21:50 Devastator: AI work might do some things, but I don't think I'd let it solve all your problems.
05:22:25 Devastator: and if you deploy an AI to combat, you'll still need soldiers for support roles. It'd certainly save casulties.
05:24:00 Devastator: The main issue, though, is you'd still need something to put the AI in.
05:24:04 Devastator: so.. two projects, there.
05:26:48 Devastator: that sounds like three projects.
05:27:32 er: By sticking a broody teenager in there instead
05:28:48 Devastator: Cheaper and easier, that.
05:28:54 Devastator: You guys aren't going to need millions.
05:30:51 Devastator: but AI research shoudl be useful.
05:31:16 er: Now, please *do* give us some pragmatic reason to use child soldiers.
05:35:10 parisbre56: they are small, so they need a smaller cockpit and we are legally barred from hiring dwarves after the "incident"
05:36:25 parisbre56 is now known as parisbre56[Away]
05:36:38 Devastator: rean't child soldiers their own justification?
05:40:52 er: Pragmatism generally means finding additional justifications.
05:40:59 Devastator: but no, I can't think of any. You're going to be able to find recruits for practically any situation.
06:19:45 er: Get them to operate things we don't understand because they're more creative
06:42:25 Devastator: yesterday's smbc looks like a four-panel strip with a one-panel joke.
06:43:14 er: Three of them are jokes and none of them are funny.
06:49:10 Devastator: but only joke was big small.

17:44:38 er: Maybe all the people recommending it are just entranced by the visuals, eh?~
17:51:43 Piecewise: Its not broken or anything
17:51:51 Piecewise: but the enemies are all really simple
17:51:55 Piecewise: bosses aren't fun to fight
17:52:18 Piecewise: and your slide dodge is really inconsistent with if it gets through attacks or gets behind people
17:52:38 Piecewise: I got killed a few times trying to slide behind someone and the game just deciding I can't slide behind this enemy this time
17:53:37 er: Sounds like you need to git gud.
17:54:21 Piecewise: Nah, I actually experimented with it a bit
17:54:37 Piecewise: See, the dodge move is a slide forward
17:54:47 Piecewise: and you can use it to dodge attacks and get behind people
17:54:52 Piecewise: but when you can do that is really random
17:55:05 Piecewise: sometimes you can slide behind them at any time
17:55:13 Piecewise: sometimes only when they attack.
17:55:19 Piecewise: sometimes only on certain attacks
17:55:32 Piecewise: and there is no real visual indicator
17:56:00 Piecewise: so a giant that you could literally walk through their legs won't let you slide through, while a normal person will
17:57:27 Piecewise: Oddly when I pointed these things out on steam, no one used the git gud excuse
