canceled my preorder a couple days before sf5 launch because I knew the game was going to be lacking content.

I'm wondering why so many others didn't do the same thing. The good money was on it coming out busted to shit, never mind the missing features.

So in one of my classes we're doing a food project in three languages. Tell me why this one girl asks "What language do they speak in Africa?" Then she proceeds to repeat the question even when it is explained to her that Africa is a continent with different countries that have different languages. Then she asks "You're black, why do you not know?!" I really don't like that girl, at all.

She wants to experience what it's like to be completely ignored by a person, she's just scared to ask.

Don't let her down.

Wow. I wonder how life is like for someone so ignorant. You should either reverse-troll her about Europe if you have the energy or just ignore her.

That's horrible. Who says shit like that to someone else, anonymity or not?

Didn't watch the video (at work), but I'm sure whatever was said is almost considered normal in that environment. Part of the reason I'm in a party or mute everyone in public lobbies.

Happy Bday! :)

Sometimes having a night to oneself and relaxing is a pretty sweet thing. Worst come to worst - call some friends over and get some multiplayer gaming in?

Xbox Live actually got a lot better. During the Halo 2 days and early to mid 360 days, I was probably called a nigger or faggot 20 times a day on Live. Nigger is a lot rarer on Live or PSN these days, but I still hear gay or faggot on the regular. Dota 2 is awful though.

I can't imagine being a female gamer online though. The shit I hear from people when they hear a female voice is disgusting. I wouldn't even bother with a mic if I were them, which is sad as fuck.

I don't even have a working phone right now and most of my friends are spread throughout the state. It's alright though.

Thanks for the birthday wishes everyone.

Happy BDay! I'd buy you shots if you were in town. Oh well.

Happy BHM people. Can't believe a dude got caught posing as a doctor this month. Dude had one job and that's to actually get on with his life and not go to jail for dumb shit like pretending to be a doctor.

*scust at this dude*

Considering that I've played every Star Ocean, Tales of, and almost every Tri-Ace game up to this point, I'd say I was pretty interested. This, plus fucking pancake face's shrill voice are putting me off.

Especially when the face was pretty damn easy to fix:

(art from NeoGAF's own Dice//)

That, plus the fact that the series went from good to fucking trainwreck and that the games from my perspective have been declining from the first game (SO > SO2 > SO3 >>>>>>>>>>> SO4) and I'm generally worried.

So I was right - Chessboard Witch has little to nothing to do with your decreasing enthusiasm. It's a raindrop in the puddle of your discontent. Real talk though, character design has never been Star Ocean's forte. This newest game probably has some of the best designs in the series (and yes that include Chess Witch in all her dumbness). Pink girl's face is a bit unfortunate though.

And I think that's why I find the genre so antiquated, because to me perfect is boring. The enemy of progress. Other genres push forward, even stuff that have it's traditionalists like FPS' and RPGs.

But it seems like fighting games is the only one that thinks it doesn't have to do anything new. Rather see games fail taking risks than be borderline monopolized for one style of gaming (competitive/tourney play in this case).

More importantly, I think there's room for both competitive fighting games and adventure/single player fighting games.

It's so hard to get fighting games right that I think a lot of energy is spent trying to nail the basics to really expand much outward. Plus remember how hostile the FGC was to Smash until just recently? Any fighting game that wanders too far off the beaten path is going to get flack from the hardcore and that might hurt word of mouth if you don't already have a strong IP attached. I don't think that's an issue other genres have to worry about. I think there has been some positive press for Rising Thunder but I haven't gotten a chance to play that game myself.

So, me and SI have a difference of opinion on what "plus size" is. That being said: before you click this link, I strongly suggest you prepare your sweaty brow or sweet lord type reaction image.

Ready?

A rare example of Malyse making a positive contribution to this thread :p

Nah I'm just trollin. Anyway, she's gorgeous. If someone is into women I don't see how you can throw shade at this model. Or are you arguing she's too thin/fit to be called plus-size? That our standards in our culture on what constitutes plus-size is borked?

I'd mouth feed Bernie some Viagra and feel the Bern just to get a chance to build sand castles out of the sand that this girl posed on.

This hurt to watch. People just SUCK some times, How were they raised that they turned into the type of failures to go around harassing people :(

I just had one of those classic "finding out that someone was gay even after all the clues been blatantly smacking you in the face" moment.

I felt like the Asian mother from "Fresh off the Boat"
