  1. Discussing world problems and what we could do to improve the situation does about the same amount of good as criticising a football team's last game and what could have been done to improve the score. All idle commentary after the fact.

    “During the Vietnam War, every respectable artist in this country was against the war. It was like a laser beam. We were all aimed in the same direction. The power of this weapon turns out to be that of a custard pie dropped from a stepladder six feet high.” - Kurt Vonnegut

    My comment is as pointless. All comments are pointless! Revel in irrelevance.

     
  2. Once upon a time, there was a comic artist, of whom I was a fan, who offered to draw something for the comic website I managed. I was thrilled! "Holy shit, he wants to draw something for my site!" I said yes, eagerly, and awaited the comics. He sent me the comics and...they were random squiggles, barely readable, with colour work that had been automated by a digital program. They were...not very good. I said thanks, and then felt quite disappointed.

     

    That might be how that record label owner feels too, having received that track.

  3. Cuphead is great.

     

    Next Car Game: Wreckfest is somewhat playable now, and seems to be nearing completion. My money wasn't wasted! If you bought it and forgot about it, give it a try, it's come a long way since it was launched.

     

    Platinum'ed Drakengard 3. It's the first game I've ever Plat'ed. Not the best Yoko Taro game, but I had my fun.

     

    Bought the DLC for NieR:Automata, after months of back-and-forthing on it. At this point, I'll take any extra Taro story I can.

  4. I agree, production is way too much, which is weird because the band spent years making it. Like, all those years were spent crushing every single dynamic out of the music? Don't get why bands do that. A shame.

     

    But the music is good. Even if all I can hear most the time is the bricks the wall is made of.

  5. Don Quixote is a total jerk! Honestly, he's basically a yob: attacking people at random for their belongings. And some of the detours the book takes is ridiculous: there's a section a hundred or so pages long where people in an inn read a novel they found. Kinda boring, and adds nothing to the story. No wonder the copy I have is 950 pages long.

     

    Also depressed to read that, even four hundred years ago, people dismayed of simple-minded works being so popular and more intellectual fare being ignored. Shit never changes.
