Nier: Automata is utterly incredible. I can't remember the last game I played that took such advantage of what only this medium can do.

I managed to get a decent chunk of it in yesterday after dipping my toe in it a month earlier. The combat is addicting but what sticks out the most for me is the soundtrack and how peaceful it is (so far).

So Steins Gate; 0 is on sale here. I've heard good things about it and I've never played a VN so I wanna try it, but I haven't played the original. Will the story make sense if I jump straight into 0?

People call it a prequel sometimes, but it absolutely is not one. S;G0 takes place in the middle of the ending of S;G. It would be meaningless to someone who hasn't played the original, as well as immediately spoiling everything.

Should... I...eh... watch the anime first?

Play the original VN if you are interested in Steins;Gate. The anime is good, but leaves out a decent bit of detail and rewatching it recently made me realize how much of a break-neck speed the plot is pushed forward. S;G 0 is useless to you unless you have a decent understanding of the original game or anime.

It's also on PC if that works and it is on sale during the Steam Summer Event.

Has Abby ever posted in here?

edit: oh my god. I just realized that Abby shares the same name with the vampire girl from Let Me In, one of my favorite movies.

Yo, I know it's none of my business but I can't help but wonder if anyone here knows... What's Ben's sexual orientation?

The Friday the 13th game is still some of the most fun I've had with a MP game in ages. Played with a friend last night and we escaped every single time. We just plain stomped whoever was playing Jason each round. Had a round where me and my friend escaped in literally 2 minutes and I got called in to be Tommy. I was calling out for the others when Jason appeared in front of me. I had a pretty stupid little moment with him where I just whipped out the shotgun and blew him away, without losing momentum, Felt like a big boy, lol

Here's the moment: https://streamable.com/2vef5

I then went on to lead the others to the police and even got Jason distracted long enough for them all to escape!

So....Was Dan at the 2016 WWE Hall of Fame thing? I know he goes to a lot of these events. I don't follow wrestling much anymore, but in OT they have a thread asking about the biggest asshole in wrestling, and Michael Hayes came up. I did a search for Michael Hayes and this is the first video I got.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfKhUxIB0VM

At no more then 8 seconds in, the broadcast shows the crowd, and I'm pretty sure I see Ryckert slightly below the center of the shot clapping (and really getting into it nonetheless).

Maybe this was known, or maybe it happens all the time, or maybe it's not even him, but I came upon this video organically and when I saw that had a "you've got to be fucking kidding me" moment.

That does look a LOT like Dan.

I mean, if he has made it public knowledge elsewhere then I'd wager he doesn't mind people knowing. But maybe he hasn't. I don't know, I haven't googled it. And I'm only wondering because I'd be happy for the representation.

Yeah, it's him! There's another clip somewhere of Dan there I remember seeing.

I want to say that you get to go to the hall of fame ceremony thing if you get a Wrestlemania ticket.

What's the price of a Wrestlemania ticket? Dan makes it sound like it's an obscene amount of money.

I forgot which package he says he bought but the top-tier one is nearly $6,000 I think.

I was putting something on in the background while getting some trivial work done the other day and put on the first Mario Party Party. It's been almost 3 years, couldn't believe it.

Based on seat location in the videos I've seen, it looks like he got the Platinum tier, which would've been $1,950.

I convinced some friends to pick up the game yesterday and it's completely reinvigorated my enthusiasm for it. Not enough can be said about a partner or partners you can reliably count on to work together. Once we met up on the map, it was hard to stop us. Not only has my survival rate gone way up but I'm having way more fun, it's definitely the way to play.

$6,000 is absurd. $1,950 sounds like something a person could save up for every year.

It won't unless it leaves EA before GOTY deliberations or GB comes up with its own category. They can break their own rules if they want but I doubt that will happen.

They'll break their own rules. PUBG is the only game they've collectively had fun with. No other game has done that for each and every one of them.
