Lunar Threads

It looks fine to me. It seems a little bright to me, but I'll take that over the super dark style that most RPGs now have.

That's in EB/EBC. The only way to get it though was to finish the demo in less than 30 minutes. KF

Wow, Kizyr! That worked thanks!

Here's a classy black and white picture of me at a bicycle built for 16 that has a bar and you drink while biking. Classy stuff, everyone.

Also, it was no shave November. Also, I can't grow a beard.

The Dark Scimitar is the weapon that you can only get by playing the demo, right?

Anyone still watching this?

I have been and have been enjoying it. Pacing is still bad. The two-parter a few weeks back on the origin of the avatar was great though.

You remind me a lot of myself when I was a young comedian. I ignored the advice of nearly everyone because I thought I knew more than they did. I am no longer a comedian. Please, don't make my mistake if this is something that is important to you.

In your opinion, it was. I have you two well outnumbered by the people who like it. I DID provide significant details and I did discuss the form in great detail. I care not that they weren't the details you were looking for. Okay, I see no reason to discuss this further, nor do I see a reason to re...

Like hell I'm going to describe what cuts, camera angles, and lighting were used! There is nothing to talk about, hardly. The direction, from a technical stand point, was adequate in that it was pointed at the right things at the right times, but there is nothing special to talk about at any point!...

What Werefrog is referring to is a difference between subjective description and objective description. The first involves describing an object in the terms of your reactions to it - good, bad, ugly, beautiful, and so on. Yeah, this is what I mean. And I think for film, it helps to be able to say s...

You guys are just coming at this from what criticism is from two different angles. LunarRaptor, you want this to be a witty Internet review like the thing you would read on Pitchfork (or whatever the movie equivalent is). Sonic#, you expect more of an academic argument. And this obviously wouldn't c...

Guys, I don't know what's going on here.

Eh, Freud was/is a mixed bag. I think his ideas are a better tool for interpreting literary characters (maybe because some of his inspiration is from one of the most influential works in the Western canon...) than actual people. If I'm going to go with a psychoanalyst, I am going to go with Erik Eri...

(YOLO, SWAG, Hipsters, etc) One of these things is not like the other? Not a hipster. But supportive. Really, all of those things are just fashions that people use to portray themselves to society. Which is something that people have always done. To place them as the center of what is wrong with cu...

Adorable baby is adorable.

Congrats!

The audience would. That's who.

Speaking of old games that we never played, I suddenly want to play Star Ocean.

I often feel like the gaming world left me behind too. It's the natural course of getting older. It's like complaining about Justin Bieber. You're not in the target demographic anymore! But is all lost? No. The gaming industry has become extremely varied (similar trends have occurred in all popular ...

It's been a while since I played Age and Seasons. But I remember really enjoying Seasons.

Are there Borg ponies?

There were more prints of each version of the game in Japan than in the US What's also true is that the used/retro game market is much more ubiquitous in Japan than in the US--it's far easier to find used game stores, and regular game stores with very large used/retro game sections that stretch bac...
