@Cleric_AC True Armored Core has never been tried

The Constant Cycle of "Not Real AC" It is incredibly draining to watch the same cycle repeat for over twenty years. Seen this play out from the "clunky"/"stompy" (I know.. 😁) transition of the PS1/PS2 era to the high-speed blitz of the 4th Gen, and again with the tactical shifts in 5th Gen. Every time the mechanics evolve, a segment of the community treats the change like a betrayal rather than an iteration. The "tourist" and "larper" labels are especially exhausting. They create a gatekeeping culture that ignores the fact that a franchise must grow to survive. If you’ve been around since the 1997 demo disc (like me), you know better than anyone that the "soul" (pun intended) of the series isn’t tied to a single control scheme or a specific physics engine or game mechanic, it is much greater than that. Do yourself and everyone else a favor, stop equating 'different' with 'wrong' and stop treating your personal preferences as universal law. Don't get me wrong, none of this is to say Armored Core VI is perfect. I have my own list of gripes with the game, and constructive criticism is how the series stays sharp. But there is a massive gulf between discussing mechanical flaws and declaring a game 'isn't AC' because it doesn't fit your specific view. You can be critical of a game without being toxic to the people enjoying it. Let’s focus on the actual design instead of trying to poll-test who is a 'real' fan. We’ve been fighting this same "flame war" since the early 2000s. It’s time to finally eject from it.

@GrimGriz Don’t you dare bad mouth my one true joy Grim When I had nobody to talk to I always knew that I could fill that void with a grilled cheese burrito and a large blue raspberry freeze. After I would realize that my depression was just actually just hunger and I really have friends

Just went through a taco bell drive thru for the first time in years, it seems... they seem to specialize in unnatural colored food products now

@Hero_LFG @GrimGriz Yeah Snake’s been around since at least the 1960’s

@GrimGriz Snakes have been around far longer than that.

We've been controlled by a hostile state since JFK died?

@Holy_007_ Join us, we build models too

言葉は分からなくても、日本人の陽キャと遊ぶより海外のオタクと遊ぶ方が楽しそうだな〜と思う今日この頃…

Could be us 😊

@CleverGull @kalezelden Chesterton gets at this in his critique of the “Will worshipers” in Orthodoxy. Focus on action itself will not bring about desirable ends.

@CleverGull @kalezelden Part of what I want to get at is sometimes the focus on action itself is part of the rumination loop. I’m still working on the way out

Stop! Hamlet Time! Look alive! @kalezelden @PresidentFoxman @madgleams

@CleverGull @kalezelden Todo in JJK shows us that sometimes all you need is a friend next to you to show you that there is work to be done

@IGNStore What happened to the rest of him?

@MourningTalk Post-modernism is based Whenever I hear people complaining about it, I just know it means we will be in exile for another 40 years until we learn our lesson

This is a question for anyone in the TLC (IYKYK) Is anyone from the TLC openly or even partly postmodern? Or does anyone regularly defend its intuitions? Other than me...

Switch 2 『Star Fox』のジェームズ・マクラウド、雰囲気はトップガンというよりカズヒラミラーみたいだ

@mattcrotts Can’t relate

Feel old yet?

@hashu_913 Arm mounted Songbirds, absolutely beautiful

素組み完成！既にエロい

“Hey Snake, do you think burgers can bloom even on an oil tanker?” “Shut up Huey”

Is this how I found out I’m in the wrong career smh

@EmilyRajeh65064 @PaulVanderKlay @PaulVanderKlay are you taking notes?

@EmilyRajeh65064 @PaulVanderKlay Dang, this cult sucks

Oh boy. I've gone and done it. I've established a dangerous cult. I would have thought there'd be more sex and money in it for me! :) reddit.com/r/cults/commen…

@jhendersonYT But is your friend one of the comfortable or one of the uncomfortable?

Feedback from my friend after seeing a sample of my in-progress novel

@mattcrotts @PaulAnleitner Yoda sets up a number of tests for Luke. Luke pushes through nonetheless. Old Luke rejects Rey out of disinterest and apathy for the Jedi order.

@PresidentFoxman @PaulAnleitner Yoda does reject Luke as apprentice. Maybe this was the Boomer George Lucas struggling with not sensing a handoff from his parents?

This moment in Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017) was when I knew the postmodern deconstruction of our culture was reaching its apex. It’s hard to believe now that this was a real scene.
