I think that I need to add you. I'll PM you.
Japan's police sound fuckign terrible.
Did you see the Yazuka shoutout?
What kind of issues do you have on the programming side of things? I'm a software engineer for mostly internal tools, but maybe I can help out or at least guide you to good resources.
I can see a visual novel as a challenge, but I also can see how if you code it right, it would be seamless and more focus could be put on the A/V stuff.
He seems pretty casual about, like all of it.
To be honest, I don't blame people for going for Hillary due to Berniebros being made up of the most annoying kind of people (annoying white young folk) doing what they're good at - being annoying.
As a black dude, I feel pretty alone giving the guy my vote. It really doesn't help, again, that his vocal supporters are, again, annoying white folks.

It's like Night Vale, but more unnerving. Sort of what Night Vale was before the quirk set in.

You know what's up. And thanks.
Lol, thanks.
Best movie I've seen in a hot while. Truly legit.
I prefer DC characters, but Marvel is aces currently. My favorite hero? That's hard. Mr faves tend to change a lot. Flash would probably be the constant, so him. Well, Wally West anyway. Impulse too. Marvel wise, I guess Spidey.
Manga. Only recent Anime I've watched was One Punch Man and even then I skipped to the parts I was interested in seeing animated.
"Better the devil you know than the devil you don't" is probably a lot of the thinking.
Assassin's fist was legitimately good. I'm skeptical about the new series being any good though tbh. Forcing sfv into the mix is just meh...
Joey Ansah has a really great understanding of the series, I'd say a better one than most at capcom. Mix in the guys experience in the industry and no interest in pandering to the lowest common denominator made for a real labor of love. Charlies character design in live action is fucking terrible. I doubt this will have the organic feel of assassin's fist. Capcom hands all up in this motherfucker. I'd prefer world warrior.

I honestly wonder how some people on this board actually function it in society. Between those who don't know basic hygiene, ask medical advice on here instead of seeing a doctor, and do other, generally stupid and lacking-of-common-sense, shit, I just wonder...I really do
Yeah, I often have to sit back and remember I'm on a gaming board. And a lot of nerds unfortunately live up to the stereotype of being socially inept.
Some of ya'll are ok tho I guess.
To be honest, I have a huge fear of being seen as such because of my interests.

I think most people will judge you based on how you actually act over what interests they find out you might have, unless they're really seen as socially weird, like MLP ...or being a furry
Speaking of socially competent, I need yall to guide me.
I've been growing my hair out since September/October. Here I am now with it. I dunno if I should chop it off or keep it going and perhaps get twists put in. Yall got any suggestions on what I can do to basically not look hideous?
Pls don't steer me wrong. I need guidance on hair, looks, etc.
Right now, I'm outside doing some work so hopefully the lighting is fine.

keep your strippers out of my American football
I hear ya. A couple of days ago there was a long thread basically asking how to say "Thank You". I think that with any electronic communication there is going to be a subset that only communicate electronically and have zero social skills or common sense. Also, we have alot of younger people who are so scared of failure they don't want life teach them some lessons, so they ask for the "cheat code" to everything.

Blow that shit out..
Same. Which is why I try not to associate with folks just because they share some of my nerdy sensibilities. I gotta know you're not a social leper. I'm not trying to catch the weeboo or whatever fuckery gamers often align themselves with. There has to be a word for this, some sort of phobia.
That said I'm pretty open with the things I like, I don't project that sort of weird persona.
Watched the second episode of Hap and Leonard last night, it's pretty good. I really like the feel of the show.
Is that one of yours DD, it's pretty good.
Welcome to gaf, and the bct.
Why hello there.
House of Cards is fucking dope, i already tore through the new series in a day. I liked it.
I agree with everything in your post, except about world warrior. (i wanted him to start from 1)
Shared this on social media:
Got a response of "Chun with the nigga lips"

Click for source. Someone said today that I'm a fan art deliveryman.
EDIT: Chun-li is 46?
Oh.
Edit 2: Well when you can have 47 year olds that look like this:
I guess it's not that strange.

I thought I had left my pick upstairs, but I had with me the whole time. Here's my hair picked out:
The barber I had since I was a kid passed away a few years ago so I've sort of been jumping around barbers. I used to get fades and caesars.
I've always asked barbers what would look best on me, but I never got a straight answer so that helped in me saying fuck it and grow my hair out.
I also want to grow my hair out because I feel it's cheaper and all my life I've always kept my hair short. I also feel like it's a thing that black men should have short hair all the time, and I'm not cool with that.
fuck people

Fucking social media comments. Smh
I don't understand how they made a terrible Chun-li movie.
Like.
It's a fighting game. The canon is bullshit anyway so make up a story and add fight scenes. Rip off something. Make Die-Hard with fighting characters. Make Taken with fighting characters. Literally make any movie and insert fighting characters. It doesn't seem like it would be that hard to not fuck up. Chun-li + Asskicking + mystery.
The big issue with game based movies is that they try to stick to canon when games unilaterally don't have good stories (the exception being MGS1. You can divorce the narrative from the game and still have a good story. I've given that no non gamers and they loved it)

Make it a wuxia movie.

Yes to the picture. Get a life to the fuck boy who responded. Lol I think I spend more gas sitting in my car at lunch than driving to and from work
Edit: also, I repeat fuck bubble guts man that burrito too stronk
I want a Borderlands JRPG.
I love virtually everything about the games except actually playing them.
+1
The best thing to come out of the franchise was Tales. Cannot stand the games but damn Tales was good and it made me want more of that world.
Nisha has has an alt with dreads and has a punk rock color pallet that go with it that makes he look like ayounger version of her with dreads with a skull shirt. Shit looks rad

I think they are playing with some larger multiplayer stuff for 3. The pre sequel seemed like obvious set up.
Also bl with one of the best black characters in video games.
Also with a bunch of black and gay characters in general. The first game has two black dudes, a hispanic dude and one white woman, as the main characters
Also tiny tina's the best
Also racist hotdog is the best
Those games are great and I have spent alot of time, getting legendaries and shooting shit up.
I get the impression (and I could be very wrong about this) that the movie wasn't conceived on its own merits. But rather that it only ever came to be because Kristin Kreuk needed a starring role of some sort, and it would be an easy vehicle to get made and to move with her existing fan base. I don't think there was ever much thought put into it beyond that.

Borderlands. The most over rated of the my first shooter category to date. Absolutely a Gearbox creation as it is 100% hacky style over substance. The franchise only got good when they passed it off to someone else to do something interesting with it.
Eh...
I think the cannon is why a lot of folks like the characters. Canon and lore is the entire appeal of cody, like cody's presentation and narrative is why folks like cody. Cody is the best
I think the but I agree with your point of making a new narrative. While I like the dumbass lore of street fighter, instead of trying to adapt poorly written video games, make a new narrative.
Yeah Fringe. I saw like 3 episodes but the main character lady was blander than bran flakes.

You'd look really good with the high top fade, growing out more to have a big fro or shorter twists imo. The latter two can be done at the same time
Tiny tina is cool
Racist hot dog is character of whatever year the pre sequel came out in.
I generally prefer style > substance, (like Bayonetta is all style) but BL had nothing for me. Outside of a Borderlands JRPG, I would love a Mass Effect style TPS game. It's a fucking waste to make characters that have flashy designs like that and then hide them from the player. Like. What was the point? It's almost like making one of the best character creators in video games and putting it in a game where you virtually never see your character. But no one could ever be that dumb.

I can't believe that there are still people trying to hold out hope that the Sword Art Online MMO is real. Like an IBM spokeperson said it wasn't real in no uncertain terms and I'm still seeing stuff like "Yeah, I'm just gonna wait and see what they say. I'd love to know who this "spokesperson" is." New people, when we (inevitably) start badmouthing anime avatars, this is the type of reality disconnect we're talking about.

I mean, like the canon. Do your thing. I keep up with King of Fighters and that's complete bullshit. But I'm not going to pretend that it's remotely well written. Fighter canon is a way to explain character backgrounds and set up character interactions. Akuma and Ryu need to fight because of reason. Ken and Ryu need to fight because reason. Etc etc.
Tiny tina made me put BL2 down and forget the series until TT stepped up to the plate.
Thanks! So a high top fade or keep growing my fro (and maybe twist it).
Hmm.
