Yeah, obviously the animations are altered by the environment (the most obvious example being like you said, stepping from one surface to a higher surface), but there's still a premade animation there that is being altered by the simulation, not like ragdoll where it's entirely physics-based.

My favorite part is this part: "We're not responsible for our actions, we're only doing it because someone else told us to."

Would someone like me, with the issues I've expressed with Dark Souls, potentially be interested in Bloodborne? This is one of those things that everyone makes such a big deal about that I feel like I'm missing out, kinda like how I felt about Persona before P4G consumed me.

I feel like ragdolls work really well for stuff like dead bodies because the way they're going to interact with the environment is too complicated to predict for canned animations. In pretty much every other instance though I prefer canned animations. And even for bodies I feel like the idea solution is to start the death animation with a canned animation and then transition to ragdoll toward the end of the collapse.

I only made it to the first real boss in Dark Souls 2. Never even tried Dark Souls 1. I can deal with difficulty, I just didn't like the amount of retracing steps required after death. I want hard games to be more like Super Meat Boy, where it kills you constantly but you only lose like 5 seconds of progress.

Yep, that'll happen.

So I lied. Although now I really do have every Amiibo I'm even remotely interested in, unless the Charizard comes back in stock or they come out with new ones that I want (though I can't imagine what those might be, other than a Blastoise, but since Blastoise isn't in Smash I don't think that's likely... Also maybe a Petra, but same thing, not in Smash).

Enact House Party Protocol.

He's making a really long-winded pun on "entitled" referring to his username (his title).

As a Kansan, Oklahoma is that place with all the red dirt and shitty roads. Nebraska is the place with all the corn and shitty roads. Missouri is the place with all the porn billboards (that's why it's the "Show Me" state) and shitty roads. Colorado's the place with the mountains and kinda shitty roads.

My favorite part is how the entire exercise only involves 1,200 troops. Yeah, that's totally enough to take over Texas...

That shit where they take their equipment is absolutely horrible. I can't believe any game ever did that, let alone all the games.

Valve doesn't deserve anything for providing distribution architecture?

The governor of Texas has ordered the Texas National Guard to monitor a US Army training exercise due to internet rumors that it's a cover for a military takeover of Texas, because everyone is completely fucking insane.

I've never beat any Mario game from before Mario 64, though I've beat every home console one from there on. I've gotten to the last world of SMB3, but never beat it.

Gascognac?

I closed them.

72% Polish.

Yeah, I liked the idea of the machete order, but when I tried it it really emphasized how much worse the prequels are.

Translation: because comic books.

I have bad knees (injured one skiing, and then the slight limp I developed injured the other one), but not so bad that I can't get up and down off the floor.

I keep my own, in addition to the one Darkadia keeps for me. Partially that's because I sometimes put things like DLC on there that Darkadia doesn't track as a separate game, and partially it's because I like to keep a bunch of data about it (like how long games are in my backlog before I remove them, etc). *Edit - On the Xbone specifically I've started using the "pin to home" feature as a way to track games I'm not finished with yet, so every time I turn it on there's a list of games on the left reminding me to play them at some point.

Yeah, they've repeatedly confirmed there's no multiplayer or coop in Arkham Knight. The parts with other hero characters are AI characters, but apparently you can switch between which one you're controlling at any time. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-04-27-new-batman-arkham-knight-trailer-shows-off-robin-nightwing-and-catwoman
