as someone who once aspired to make a 2d sidescrolling game i have come to realise i feel largely eh about them for the most part

 

[Hoo-doo]

Look, anyone who gets a white chocolate mocha definitely does not fuck.

What? I beg to differ, son. White chocolate rules everything around me.

They officially changed the name: http://jeff.zone/post/157736635541/are-quick-look-exs-not-a-thing-anymore-too-much

They are trying to trick us.

Speaking of the QL EX, looking at the wonderboy and man, it occured to me that I have not been interested in any 2D sidescrolling game in a long time. Other than indivisible (though it's not the 2D sidescrolling that got me interested in it) and odin's sphere (which is kinda an old ass game I played back in the day anyway), I seriously can't think of any in the last... 3 years.

I guess Night in the woods count?

I played Momodora Reverie Under the Moonlight which is the only recent 2d side scroller that comes to mind, and I really enjoyed it.

Seeing Jeff die in that game made me laugh.

 

[Zeouterlimits]

Well if you're not getting cream in your hot chocolate.. look, just fucking pause and reconsider.

Because cream in hot chocolate is glorious.

I think it's just the indie oversaturation of it. Like, I get it, I get why indies use that genre, but eh.

Also I just realised why I seem pretty into Night in the woods because I like, overuse like just as much as the main character. Also my mom is also weirdly into true crime stuff.

Putting anything sweet into coffee is a crime.

If you want to make a game in 2017 and your first thought is a 2D Metroidvania-esque game, you should just go for an interview at McDonalds instead.

I guess you're right. I do actually drink my coffee black.
But you just happened to trigger my immediate defense-reflex for all things white chocolate.

I hope they get to (Yakuza 0 non-spoiler)

Majima

Oh boy, the description makes me excited for this yakuza epsiode

Coffee is bad

I have cocoa with coffein. It's from a German startup in Berlin. I don't taste the coffein since I don't drink coffee but I do feel its effect. Bought it for the good cocoa quality though. Not drinking it everyday but I like it.

Coffee is blergh!

 

[Chance Hale]

Is Rorie the only one on the team who might care about Torment?

 

[Hjod]

What's up with all the coffe hate in here?

#Teamcoffee

It's glorious, especially if it's Irish .

 

[Fantastapotamus]

Always ask yourself: What Would Rorie Do
Would he drink coffee? No? That's probably because it's bad

Is Rorie the only one on the team who might care about Torment?

Vinny loves Planescape. I doubt we will see much coverage of the game outside of one Quicklook though.

 

[Hoo-doo]

I bet the average Giant Bomb subscriber drinks Keurig-tier shitwater coffee, so i'm not surprised.

Up your coffee game, gents.

 

[Tubobutts]

Up your coffee game by never drinking coffee.

 

[Wunder]

Oh god who told them they couldn't fail sub stories

 

[Jintor]

this beast in the east thumbnail looks very promising.

 

[Meguro]

Oh god who told them they couldn't fail sub stories

I was internally screaming at that.
They are just gonna pick all the bad choices now, noooooooooooooooo

 

[Hoo-doo]

I'd rather be dead.

 

[Wunder]

I was internally screaming at that.

I mean for some of them it won't matter and I'm down to see some of the more wacky choices but fuck man, some of the more useful items come from succeeding in those sub stories.

 

[Tubobutts]

They keep running right by the erotic videos.

 

[Salarians]

coffee good, y'all are crazy

 

[repeater]

Coffee has no fat = the ultimate REDUCED FAT.

Thus, coffee is the one thing Rorie is wrong about.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Ugh, I was hoping to nioh and BitE at the same time but I can't handle this boss and watch at the same time. That's my limit as a human. ;_;

Yoshi's Woolly World is the best 2D platformer in the past ten years. People sleep FAR too hard on that game.

pretty easy to sleep when you're playing a yoshi platformer

Getting lots of video artefacts around the 1.5 hour mark on Beast in the East. Not sure if it's the video or my gpu dying 🤔

 

[chogidogs]

They should just take turns playing. It super obvious that Vinny and Alex wants to play the game themselves too.

Black is the one true way to drink coffee.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

I didn't like coffee until I started making it with an aeropress. It was a revelation that coffee didn't have to taste like acidic, bitter poison.

I didn't notice anything around that time.

But now I know how all those Shenmue's felt watching them not know what they're doing.

This is what Nintendo thinks too whenever someone brings up Metroid.

Look, anyone who gets a white chocolate mocha definitely does not fuck.

so I worked at a starbucks for 3 years while in college, the primary consumers of white chocolate mochas were college-aged girls. I assume they fuck a lot.

How about a 2D couch multiplayer brawler instead?

Telling Dan the magic words so he can just pick the worst side-quest options in BitE was a bad plan.

They thankfully kind of reel it back midway through so hopefully it won't be a series-long issue

 

[Blitzrules240]

Wow, a 2 and a half hour BiTE vid.

Gonna need to shower and dive in.

 

[Meneses]

Yeah, that "you can't fail so pick the dumbest thing" was a bad move, but it does end up in some funny moments.

 

[hamchan]

Majima best new (old) character 2017.

 

[Wunder]

Majima best new (old) character 2017.

he's new to me damnit

Spoiler

his outfit/hair change at the end of the game bummed me out, but i know its to line it up with how he looks in 1

After playing a bunch of Bloodborne I can safely say that Bloodborne wasn't robbed when they ignored it last year

Yeah, they did good in the Ayu-chan side quest, and then they decided to try to pick good choices, so not a big deal!
