04:23:12 Devastator: anyway, stopped the stream. That mission was running long.
04:24:25 Devastator: Yeah, the expansion pack is like that.
04:24:56 MJ: Isn't that kinda typical of the era?
04:25:01 MJ: The expansion pack is hard as balls
04:26:17 MJ: Also the prequel update is quite good, I see Kaz has been able to tear himself away from the T shirt mines
04:27:15 Devastator: No, not really, actually.
04:27:24 Devastator: by modern standards RTS of that era were all trivially easy.
04:27:33 Devastator: but I'm not super good.

05:18:58 syv: There's *three* panels that aren't gifs
05:19:17 Devastator: zap zap zap zap zap zap'
05:19:50 Devastator: writing can be done through images.
05:20:16 MidJag: I feel as though Kaz is now an extremlly creative sweatshop woekr
05:21:02 syv: No,
Dev. At least one of those is from his assistant. The fancy sitting animation.
05:21:35 syv: I forget his name, but he tends to get credits for "all the actually good animation!"
05:22:03 syv: Can look at the snout design in that gif
05:22:08 syv: Kaz never draws Katia like that
05:22:19 Devastator: I do believe that, yes.
05:22:41 syv: I don't see Kaz as a sweatshop worker. He *acts* and *talks* like one. But really he's more like me with PS.
05:22:57 syv: Prequel is something very important to him that he's invested a huge chunk of his life into.
05:23:05 Devastator: too obsessed with it for ideal results?
05:23:10 syv: And dealing with it is just inherently extremely stressful.
05:23:43 syv: So really he'd rather do anything else, and working on it requires him to *force* himself and grind at it, being ever more perfectionistic.
05:24:40 Devastator: They just used a cross as the proper metaphor for a cross in Trigun.
05:24:43 Devastator: I'm sincerely impressed.
05:25:16 MidJag: Heavy thing to carry, makes life difficult lots of sacrificing things
05:25:40 Devastator: The burden he carries is the responsibilities for being a better person.
06:30:45 MidJag: Hmm, I'm gonna go to bed
06:44:51 ER: oops, I wasn't watching this
06:45:22 ER: I'm playing... a fangame which is basically hotline miami 2 with team fortress 2 characters
07:01:14 ER: it seems to be basically exactly HM rebuilt in a new engine, which seems ambitious when HM2 has a level editor but ok
07:01:43 ER: everything works the same except the doors don't have physics any more which is actually... nicer
07:02:01 ER: just snap open 90 degrees and then you can walk into it again to close it
07:02:16 syv: Do they still slam people?
07:04:04 ER: did get a couple crashes but other than that I really like it
07:05:54 ER: oh yeah, and it also lets you respawn rather than restart once per floor which helps with some frustration from HM type bullshit
08:26:41 syv: I just watched through the first half of Re;Zero with Saki
08:28:58 syv: After Rem's big scene, asked if she now considered Rem best girl. "heheh, yes. Though I do still love Emilia."
08:33:17 syv: That particular scene is even better on a rewatch, too
08:33:25 syv: I noticed a lot more elements of it
08:33:47 syv: Shame the rest of the show isn't on the same level, but still
08:34:06 Devastator: Yeah, that is a hell of a scene.
08:34:16 Devastator: eh, it'd be too exhausting if it was all that level of tension.
08:34:57 syv: I mean in terms of pacing and writing quality
08:35:13 syv: The show definitely has spotty pacing and pretty meh dialogue
08:35:58 Devastator: Probably more good stuff than the premise.
08:37:34 Devastator: and yeah, Rem is best girl.
08:37:41 Devastator: although, amusingly, there's a Rem in Trigun. ;-p
08:37:45 Devastator: but no, she doesn't have blue hair.
08:40:33 Devastator: but yeah, that's a damn good show.
08:40:39 Devastator: ..has she seen PMMM?
08:41:26 syv: Is there a Rem in terms of personality, or just name?
08:42:20 Devastator: She's not Rem, but she's the person who taught Vash to value life.
08:42:47 syv: And yes, Re;Zero has very good story and plot *beyond* the isekai or even respawn elements.
08:43:23 syv: Which is why it's a good idekai really, it has actual quality to carry the show beyond that
08:46:44 Devastator: Yeah. Isekai for isekai isn't much good.
08:59:27 ER: it turns out a gimmick doesn't make a plot on its own
08:59:57 ER: ...and that's not really "the gimmick" of re zero anyways
09:06:06 syv: That's what I was referring to with "respawn element" ;P
