I think Daft Punk and Jake Kaufmen have entered my lifeblood through my ears.
I'm so excited that you're watching JoJo. And fuck yeah, the soundtrack is godlike. Sorry for the times I was really slow to reply, TLOU is pretty engaging when I boot it up and I forget to check the thread.

I bet Sony wishes they could publicly can the game, but they keep seeing people having hope, and they are all like, "Fuck."

I like this quick sit down format, but man that had to have taken a good portion of Matt's time to edit together. Maybe it's all the free time from having his Top 10 of 2014 done.
I thought it was a good excuse, and I'm way ahead of ya.

Voted shamelessly for myself.
Pokémon really needs to change how they do Gym Leaders. The first Gym leader is good enough for teaching players about types and resistances and weaknesses.
Honestly, a big help in introducing the meta game to new players would simply make Gym leaders Strategy based rather than type base.
Type advantages and weakness is something people will pick up as they go through the game regardless. Gym 1 should be regulated to teaching that and the later Gym leaders focus on other things. Gym 2 could be someone that buff's their pokemon using boost. Gym 3 could specialize in inflicting status moves. Gym 4 could specialize in fast sweeping pokemon while Gym 5 uses walls and stall tactics.
This will allow people to learn more naturally, and teach the games core mechanics through story rather than having it dumped on them post game.

The core audience of Pokemon is children. Children aren't the biggest fans of learning strategy and shit, and just want to blast through the game, using their favorite Pokemon.
That's what the Battle Frontier's job is. To provide a gateway to the indepth aspects of Pokemon.

The only time I've touched the Ultimax story was when I accidently clicked on the story because I was just mashing through menus trying to get online.

Hope you enjoy it because that's where the show peaks. The rest is fine though currently its pretty bad, but nothing you'll see in the anime after Ennies Lobby is even close to how great the climax of that arc is.
Enies Lobby is still my fav arc.

I did that too, and I was scared I was going to be forced into some unskippable cutscene.

You know, it's probably time I get caught up on most of the SBFP videos I've missed in the last couple weeks due to my 2014 Bombcast catch up plan. Already made it to August.

It really depends on the game. I like the fun, but dumb lore of some fighting games, but Persona doesn't have fun, dumb lore. Its just a bad story.
I'm not saying make the Gym Leaders super hard, Since Coliseum and XD already had bosses like that during the main game.
(One boss in the game had a rain dance/ Thunder team) I think kids would be smart enough to beat the gym, and if they're not they know to train a little more. This would let smart players clear the game on lower levels as well.
I also think the Battle Frontier is amazing, but not a good learning tool. During the super cups it expects you to know at least a basic knowledge of competitive play. Something the main games always completely fail on. X/Y did better with showing EV's and allowing you to max them out completely even with 0 knowledge of EV drops from random pokemon.
Stadium 2 had an amazing learning school that threw players into situations allowing them to learn.
I dunno Marineford look fucking awesome to be honest, although I've heard the anime adaption has issues. As somebody who has really no problem with the anime's pacing, is the anime version of Marineford that bad? And if so, should I read the manga instead?

What Pokemon needs is difficulty modes. Would add so much more to the game. I love Pokemon, but its just way too easy for me to enjoy it as much anymore. It feels pointless training up a super badass team just to have them blow through everything with no challenge.
It's because the anime pacing is fucking awful for this particular part. They switched some things around that changed the pacing significantly.
There's one particular Marineford thing that's 100000000000x better in the manga than in the anime, because they had to censor it for the anime.

Marineford's pacing is ok compared to the TERRIBLE TERRIBLE pacing of
Impel Down.
And don't even get me started on how absolute garbage Fishman Island is.

Well to be fair, I'm only at Punk Hazard, but pretty much nothing is happening so far. Which is how One Piece has kind of been since Marineford.

System Shock 2. SS2 doesn't resemble the first game that much, and is also inferior to that, so Bioshock is like twice removed from that.
Fuck, System Shock 1 is so fucking awesome, holy shit.

The best part about having Rei as a Waifu...

You can sex with as many Reis as you want and never feel guilty for cheating! =D
It seems so, his avatar was removed from his posts and I've seen people get banned and keep their avatars. Plus his last few posts didn't seem like shit posting to me.
