Ahh, console video games (or vidcons as I call them). the ultimate medium of expression, able to convey any emotion ranging from hatred to love, loyalty to fear, all in front of our eyes. Ah, and with lovingly crafted art, music, and the ability to control the action, vidcons are the ultimate combination of the high arts. While I tend to play the stoic, I will be the first to admit that vidcons haven driven me to cry, to scream and shout, to feel actual hate; such is the power of this force beyond our wildest reckoning. And here I am, before you, to temp your tongues with the taint of such a tantalizing topic.

And the Japanese, the true geniuses behind the world of video games. Pah, I throw my scorn upon such incompetents of the West who would mock the true art of the Japanese with 'games' such as Baldur's Gate and Madden. Perhaps it is that the West is not as intelligent as the East, but this is a matter for another day. Japan has given us such masterpieces as the Final Fantasy series, Star Ocean, Wild Arms, and of course, Arc the Lad. Yes, some of the finest vidcons in the world were created by Japanese. I come to you today to ask you in all earnesty, what is your favorite vidcon? I will reveal mine after the grand debate has illustriously begun, but not before the first poster falls victim to my plot of discussion.

In other words, this is a thread on an imaginary forum our avatars frequent. The topic can fluctuate, and its mostly just general discussion.

Evening. Went bouldering today, my arms are absolutely dead. How‘s everyone else?

I‘m planning to finally implement some switches and control elements into my magic this evening, right after I finish typing this post.

Update: finally properly defined continuous motion of sets with respect to time. Thankfully I‘ll only have to do this once… I hope. It‘s also not as bad as it sounds, I‘m just lazy.

Update 2: need to do some scene logic before I can test out the one slider object I‘ve created. It‘s getting late, I‘ll do that tomorrow at uni and then update the Github repo

[1] Whoa, that‘s one hell of a family relationship!

I'm doing great personally

There is ONE treasure chest in Penacony that escapes my grasp. I have spent several hours searching for it in this hotel.

Do you think the hotel owners are starting to get suspicious of you?

Well the hotel in question is closed to the public right now and I'm only here because of dream-related shenanigans that probably mean something important but right now I am risking my sanity for a Basic Treasure. In other words I don't think the staff know I'm here

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/candy_paku_hey.png Yeah, two cuties from the Jewelpets series decided to give this place a visit! Their names were Luea and Diana, they have a lot of surprisingly sweet powers within their abilities.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/moriritchi_sunset.jpg Like the former seemed kinda rather stressed out by the other pets causing issues and had to take a break. The latter was in pretty good status from the time we seen her.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mirai_smile_ii.png That eclipse on April 8th reminded her of the accidental disaster where she unexpectedly summoned a monster that almost destroyed her home town. [2]

[up] when I see a young woman in what looks to be outdated supersoldat armour carrying weapons known to favoured by the enemy what else am I supposed to think, in combat it is these moment by moment decicions on who is friend and who is foe that keeps you alive.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/miho_in_power_armour.png

Werent the nazi's defeated in 1945?

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bj_blazkowicz.png

maybe you arent the enemy after all, no nazi I ever encountered has EVER even admitted defeat let alone try to play dumb, so whats up with this whole supersoldat shtick?

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/miho_in_power_armour.png

oh I just wear it in super ahnnihilation matches as combating the enemy outside of tanks is allowed in that "mode"

tanks?

matches? tell me more...?

Afternoon. Can someone give me two sets of four points in the 2d plane, so that in no set no three points are on one line? Preferably with natural coordinates! I wanna try practicing finding projective maps.

Will elaborate on request!

OH! Wait what? Miho...? Yukari...? Wait, there's something off about them...



Anyways, it kind of bugs me how several Pokémon from Unova evolve way too late. I'm particularly picking this one up about getting Pawniard to evolve to Bisharp, Vullaby to Mandibuzz, Rufflet to Braviary, Larvesta to Volcarona, and most infamously, the Deino evolution line - which evolves way too late even amongst the generally late-evolving "psuedo-legendaries". Perhaps maybe because of how the experience curve works there? Even then, that seems rather iffy to have them get stuck unevolved until like, the end of the game or even post-game.
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lovelive_ayumu.png
I know how it feels. It's just easier to skip them and take Pokémon who at least can reasonably be fully evolved just before the last quarter of the game and can do the job just well. In fact, Archeops just does everything better than either Mandibuzz or Braviary, since Archeops seems just fast enough to outspeed all but the fastest mons, and likely to defeat them with a single move when hitting an opponent's weakness.

Basically, more the reason that some Pokémon in the middle of your journey are actually better kept rather than replacing them for the later catches...

Am really in the mood for being annoyed right now, yet helpless to do anything about the situation...
