Nah, I'm broken at this point that if I'm not doing something else when I'm playing games I feel distracted. Especially long ass games like TitS. I just don't want to devote such a large amount of time solely to one thing, so long-ass RPGs are kinda perfect podcast games to me. There are very few exceptions to that rule.
I picked normal, hence the 16 levels. Or is 'normal' easier the first few times you do it or something?
Put them in the general character pool and let the game decide for you. That way you can rescue somebody as an engineer or get a mission to assassinate Dan.
nah, the difficulties are based on completion rates
i dunno, that sounds like an unusually high number of bad apples for the 'normal' challenge (try 'expert' instead) but then again, i think playing gaf levels is absolutely the way to go. have only done a couple of 100 mario challenges myself

No more combos being cut by color coded enemies, turbo mode to speed up the game, mechanics/stylish balance tweaks, options between auto/non-auto lock on, Dante must style, and the list goes on. It still has its issues, but I really applaud Ninja Theory for going above and beyond to try to make right with the more passionate fans in trying to make it feel more like proper DMC.
Silent Hills fans suffered more than any other. They get some leeway in coming off bitter. As for DMC fans, some off them can come off as annoying, but I feel like the most passionate on GAF like Dahbomb and GuardianE are really cool people.

Congrats to Yooka-Laylee GOTY 2016.
They're not only bitter but a lot of them are completely nutters, the same goes for MGS fans.
Oh, I had no idea. Yeah expert definitely gives me more interesting levels, but sometimes maybe too 'interesting'. I guess I'm just looking for a middle ground that isn't very popular.

I thought Undertale fans were the worst.
The middle ground is 'Expert' + generous use of 'select skip', from what I've gathered...
Those are in the list: Undertale -> anime -> JRPG -> Souls

Look, we all know that giantbomb fans are secretly the worst.
Fucking giantbomb fans, ugh.
As bad as video game fandoms have gotten, the Transformers fandom still probably makes me the most sad. It's so bad it almost makes me not want to be a part of it. No-one is ever happy about anything and literally every single piece of news devolves into people shitting on each other and trying to boost whatever their particular sub-fandom is.
Yeah... we are.

Modern MGs are ammmmazing. Buy an MG. I just build the Hyaku-Shiki 2.0 and that has to be one of the coolest kits I've ever built. The best MG is still Sazabi ver Kai, but that's probably more expensive than many are willing to go.
At least at first. You get there eventually. I've justified buying a PG for myself. There is no more hope.
The RX-78 3.0 still doesn't do anything for me. So glad they did an MG of The Origin's. That version is perfection.
The middle ground is just play a good platformer instead. It's not like there's a great shortage of them.
That's a thing you can do? That's amazing. Now I'm even more bummed out there is no console version.
What's this even about? Alien tits in XCOM?

Giant Bomb, Homestuck, and Souls fans form a holy trifecta of ignominy
And at the center of that venn diagram is me, History's Greatest Monster

The fact that Patrick got shit on basically every day while working for Giant Bomb and he himself said that pretty much none of that followed him to Kotaku means that we're worse than people who read Kotaku. That's a pretty bad indicator.

Digimon Story 2016 fuck everything else
Digimon Story looks like the Digimon game I've always wanted and holy crap am I pumped.
the digimon game you should have always wanted is already out, just not localised
(adventure on psp)

You're a big guy.
In fairness that's largely because the gb audience is video focused and he was always a written word type of person who moved to a written word website. It is no surprise gb viewers didn't follow; he was not catering to the same audience

Will it have poopmon though.
I need to know.
I actual legit liked poopmon when I was 11.

Wait, which ones?
Thanks! Gonna watch and see how much that has changed since.
7 and 8 for 3ds were both announced for the west on the same day
Yeah I don't think that's why.
Nah. The dude was making the exact same video content on his YouTube channel that he was making on Giant Bomb but could barely get a few thousand views for those videos. I don't think what kind of content he made mattered, the Giant Bomb fans just pooped on him while he was on the site and didn't bother with him afterwords.

There were a subset that downvoted everything he was in, don't get me wrong. But I think the majority of my point stands.

I think he's saying the negativity didn't follow, not that GB people lost interest in him after he left.

I need Sonic fans as some kind of reference point
