05:11 <PinkieShy> Learned something new today :)
05:11 <PinkieShy> Had to put air in the tires on the car and well.. Used the machines at the gas station to do it
05:12 <PinkieShy> It was very easy being the machine had a button to set to desired tire pressure and Upon such and putting the hose to the car it alerted me when the front got to 35 :)
05:15 <Finwe> 35 what?
05:15 <PinkieShy> psi
05:15 <PinkieShy> For the tire pressure and such
05:16 <PinkieShy> Car says its 35 on front tires and 32 in the rear tires.
05:16 <Finwe> We would use bars.
05:16 <Finwe> 1 bar = 100 kPa
05:17 <Finwe> 35 psi ≈ 2.4 bar, which sounds about right.
05:25 <PinkieShy> Either way.. Glad that was able to tell me when to stop putting air
05:25 <PinkieShy> We have a portable pump in the trunk but i don't think it was the air pressure meter thing built in so -shrug-
05:32 <somininin> Its not a very exact science anyway.
05:32 <somininin> When warm/cold preasure changes wildly anyway.
05:33 <somininin> It has more effect on how the car drives tho.
05:36 <somininin> A lot pressure and the car drives terrible, but needs less gas. little pressure gives better handling and a lot more gas.
05:37 * somininin drives at 5 bar.
05:48 <Finwe> I keep my bicycle tyres at 5 bar.
05:50 <Finwe> Higher pressure means lower energy loss due to deformation of the tyres and friction.
05:50 <somininin> Used to too, but then i hit something with my front wheel and it knocked me of the bike.
05:50 <somininin> Now i drive with 3 in the front and 4 in the back

10:01 * Dappled starts chewing on stuff.
10:01 <Lumindia> so I had a bit of a panic this morning. Apparently there was a power outage, and my computer almost didn't boot up properly.
10:01 * Dappled chews on Lumindia's computer.
10:01 * Lumindia baps Dappled
10:01 <Lumindia> No
10:01 <Dappled> Almost?
10:01 <Lumindia> no chewing on my computer
10:02 <Dappled> But tasty!
10:02 <Lumindia> I had to turn it off and on again a few times, then it came on properly
10:02 *** ConfusionRift2 is now known as ConfusionRift
10:02 <Lumindia> No chewing on my computer dappled
10:02 * Lumindia offers Dappled a big stick
10:02 * Dappled ooohs and happily chews.
10:02 * ConfusionRift boops Lumindia's computer. ._.
10:02 * Lumindia offers Confusion a big stick as well
10:02 <Lumindia> Sticks for everyone!
10:03 * Lumindia proceeds to chew on Dappled's tail
10:03 * Dappled stares at the developers of Duskers. Wants them to make more games to buy.
10:04 <ConfusionRift> Would've suggested to disconnect the computer from power, then connect it back after a bit.
10:04 <Lumindia> Take fire, O Hallowed Moon!
10:04 * Golden flops, and groans. He gets why Metroid Dread, is called Dread.
10:04 <Dappled> I've never seen a developer do this before I want to support it.
10:04 <Dappled> "We're updating the game with all of the fixes in Decavoid's unofficial patch"
10:05 <Dappled> They looked at someone else's patch of their games and went "We should put that in the normal build."
10:05 <Lumindia> ooo
10:05 <Lumindia> nice
10:06 <ConfusionRift> Because, unlike Bethesda, they're smart. :P
10:06 <Dappled> Right?
10:06 <Golden> Huh
10:07 <ConfusionRift> Also waiting on my copy of Metroid Dread.
10:07 <Dappled> So we thought, why not hire Decavoid to integrate those changes (and possibly others) into the base game? So we did :)
10:07 <Dappled> They hired him!
10:07 <Dappled> That's amazing.
10:07 * Dappled has never gotten past a boss in Metroid.
10:08 <ConfusionRift> More people should do that, really.

10:18 <ConfusionRift> The only other I can think of was the Sonic Team and Christian Whitehead.
10:24 * Dappled headtilts.
10:26 <ConfusionRift> Guy was working on unofficial ports of Sonic games for emulation and such. Eventually, they hired him and decided to make his ports official. Later on, he joined with the development team to work on Sonic Mania.
10:29 * Dappled nodnods.
10:30 <ConfusionRift> You know, unlike the mess that happened with AM2R.
10:31 <Dappled> ?
10:31 * Dappled is not familiar.
10:34 <ConfusionRift> They were working on an unofficial Another Metroid 2 Remake. They were working on this project for a really long time. Then, it was time for them to really the final version 1. As soon as it was released, Nintendo came with the C&D notice, so they had to take it down. Then, shortly after that, they announced their official Metroid 2 remake.
10:36 <ConfusionRift> I believe some people are still working on AM2R,, because screw Nintendo, but that mess did leave a sour taste.
10:37 <Dappled> I don't blame them. Lot of hard work to be tossed out.
10:40 <Finwe> Good afternoon, my perissodactyls of minute stature.

11:49 <Schism> The USS John F. Kennedy and the USS Kitty Hawk, two decommissioned aircraft carriers, were sold this week for the bargain price of $.01 each.
11:49 <Schism> (Aircraft not included.)
11:50 <ConfusionRift> ...eeeehhh?!
11:50 * Lumindia drapes a blanket over Schism
11:50 <Lumindia> o wo
11:51 <Schism> They were sold to a scrap company. X3 The cruisers were absolutely _abysmal_, and not worth the cost of keeping afloat anymore.
11:51 <Schism> https://twitter.com/NavalInstitute/status/1446295261056315408
11:51 * Schism issa warm foxxo. It's not too chilly though right now! A mere 61F.
11:53 <ConfusionRift> Apparently, they did this for the purpose of the recycling company to earn a profit from said scrap.
11:54 <Schism> Oh, there's no question that there was some pretty significant grift involved.
11:54 <ConfusionRift> Very likely.
11:55 <ConfusionRift> "The Kitty Hawk was deployed in the Vietnam War, and the John F. Kennedy featured in the Gulf War."
11:55 <Schism> So, I mean, 30 years ago in the case of the latter.
11:56 <ConfusionRift> These ships had plenty of service thought. Kitty Hawk got decommissioned around 2017, and JFK around 2009.
11:58 <ConfusionRift> But yeah, they did have some historical significance, so likely some people would not be happy to see them go like this.
11:59 * Schism nods. "Reminds me of the story of that luxury cruise liner which was just barely rescued from being scrapped."
12:00 * Schism considers having some hot & sour soup for breakfast.
12:08 <Lumindia> do it
12:08 * Lumindia becomes smol, nests on Schism's head
12:09 * Schism supposes she could offer Lumindia an eggroll.

13:30 <LunaNightwind> good morning
13:37 <Schism> Hi hi!
13:37 * Schism rolls over, and offers LunaNightwind some egg rolls.
13:38 <LunaNightwind> oh no thank you Schism, I am not at all hungry this morning
13:38 * Schism whurfs. "Hope you're alright?"
13:39 <LunaNightwind> oh yeah I am fine, i just have days where my appetite does not exist, and that is ok
13:40 <somininin> butt eggs dont roll good.
13:40 * Schism isn't an egg anymore, but she rolls just fine.
13:40 <LunaNightwind> LOL
13:41 <somininin> When where you an egg?
13:41 <LunaNightwind> obviously before her shell cracked
13:41 <Schism> Oh, a few months ago. Well, over a year, actually, but still.
13:41 <Schism> Riiiight up until July 2020.
13:42 <LunaNightwind> I havent been an egg since 2017 but i still recognize that in my town i have to learn from solid snake and use stealth
13:42 <somininin> Are we still trying puns or are you describing a weird medical condition?
13:42 <Schism> somininin, an egg is a trans person who still hasn't come out to themselves yet, let alone anyone else.
13:43 <somininin> ohhhhh
13:43 <LunaNightwind> I mean if we are using that definition i havent been an egg since 1999 Schism
13:43 <LunaNightwind> I feel that you can still qualify as an egg if you are only out to yourself
13:44 <Schism> Well, that's one definition then. Another is a trans person who's out to themselves, and acknowledges it -- but hides it from everyone else.
13:44 <LunaNightwind> yeahhhh thats where i was
13:45 <Schism> The idea being that eggshells are at least secure, and hard, and keep one safe ... but they're also stifling, and eventually the shell will crack.
13:45 <LunaNightwind> I was sitting here thinking about playing fallout new vegas....then decided i dont want to be that trans girl today
13:46 <Schism> Heehee.
13:46 * somininin is an omlette

13:46 <Lumindia> *snrk* Now I"m remembering my faovirte bit from old world blues
13:47 * Schism passes LunaNightwind a Monster, at least.
13:47 <LunaNightwind> already got one Schism
13:47 * Schism nodnods.
13:47 <LunaNightwind> gender-neutral pronouns....also big iron on your hip
13:48 <LunaNightwind> ;-P
13:49 <LunaNightwind> I really have no clue what i want to play
13:49 <LunaNightwind> too many games and nothing to play
13:49 <Schism> See about collecting all the strawberries in Celeste?
13:49 <LunaNightwind> mehhhh im not in a celeste mood though
13:50 <LunaNightwind> 800+ games between all my PC launchers and not a damn thing to play
13:50 <Schism> That's fair. A couple of us have been playing Beast Breaker, which is a pinballish puzzle game starring a nonbinary mouse.
13:50 <Schism> (And a whole cast of LGBTQ+ critters.)
13:50 <LunaNightwind> sounds interesting but i have no cash to buy a new game today
13:51 <LunaNightwind> if i did i would buy monkeyball
13:51 <Schism> Sensible.
13:52 <LunaNightwind> i am only on day 4 without a cigarette i want to keep some money available if i get too weak and do go back to smoking

13:52 <Schism> So far so good, though.
13:52 <Schism> Cigarettes are $12 a pack up here, so quitting helped a lot.
13:53 <LunaNightwind> yeah so far so good, i know day 3 is one of the hardest days so im proud of making it past that
13:54 <LunaNightwind> i was paying $7.45 a pack but when you only make 814 dollars a month and 500 of that goes towards rent, 7.50 is a large chunk of your finances
13:54 * Schism nods.
13:55 <LunaNightwind> as it is i only have 100 dollars left to last me 22 days
13:55 <LunaNightwind> I can do it no problem though ^+^
13:56 <LunaNightwind> brb gotta do the whole wake up routine of shave and lotion
13:57 * ADragonDreaming wobbles in
13:57 * Schism rolls over and offers that extra Monster to Adra instead.
14:02 * ADragonDreaming transmogrifies it into an equivalent caffeine injection of Coke Zero
14:05 <Schism> Abusing SCP-914 for fun and profit, I take it.
14:08 <ADragonDreaming> sure why not
14:08 <Schism> That's the machine where you put something in, set it to 'coarse, rough, 1:1, fine, or extra-fine', and the machine refines it (or, um, renders it down) appropriately.
14:09 <ADragonDreaming> (In actuality I just know that Monster is a huge trademark bully and also I haven't been a fan of the taste the couple times I tried it - but I appreciate the gesture)
14:09 <ADragonDreaming> Ah, right.
14:09 <ADragonDreaming> So that would be a 1:1 change, probably.
14:09 <Schism> Indeed.
14:09 <ADragonDreaming> "Fine" would get you five-hour energy
14:10 <ADragonDreaming> extra-fine would get you that concoction in that one dude's Arabic roommate made for him at 10 pm when he had a whole-ass paper due the next day.
14:11 <ADragonDreaming> He next became aware at around noon the next day, but got an A on the project.

14:11 <Schism> The fun thing is using SCP-914 to iterate the results of previous attempts.
14:12 * Schism also hugs the LunaNightwind, and also fluffs up the Ali with a manedryer.
14:12 * Ali doesn't really fluff up
14:12 * ADragonDreaming applies fluffy wig ...?
14:13 <Schism> "Yes, I've been playing chess with 914. I'm aware it's probably non-sentient, but that hardly explains why it's winning."
14:21 <LunaNightwind> so I found my Dreamcast last night that was exciting
14:21 <Schism> Ooh, yay. Time to play some Phantasy Star Online!
14:22 <LunaNightwind> time to break out my old computer to burn some CDRs of dreamcast games
14:23 <ADragonDreaming> ...that's always confused me, what's the "Online" part of a Dreamcast game?
14:23 <Schism> I also suggest Crazy Taxi.
14:23 <Schism> ADragonDreaming, the Dreamcast has a 56K modem internally.
14:23 <LunaNightwind> upgradable to a Broadband Modem if you can find one
14:23 <Schism> While it's no longer really viable due to service shutdown, that was a major draw for the console.
14:24 <Schism> I'm pretty sure there are still some private servers for Phantasy Star Online out there, somewhere.
14:24 <LunaNightwind> Crazy Taxi...That was a great punk soundtrack
14:25 <LunaNightwind> and yeah PSO still has some big PSs

14:29 <LunaNightwind> only way to play a bard is with charisma through the roof and flirting with every available NPC in the game
14:30 <Schism> While the comic 'Our Little Adventure' hasn't been updated in forever -- I assume the author has moved onto other aspects of life -- the main character is a bard who's played pretty well.
14:30 <LunaNightwind> I rolled a 19 for charisma for the bard, nothing could resist my charms
14:30 <Schism> Reminds me of the Face I played in Shadowrun... except that I bumped Edge all the way up to 6.
14:31 <LunaNightwind> LOL
14:31 <Schism> He would stumble through all manner of social situations and come out smelling like a rose.
14:31 <LunaNightwind> Guessing that was pre transition?
14:32 <Schism> Yeah, but I'd be fine with playing him again, honestly. A bit more comfortable in doing so now, even!
14:32 <LunaNightwind> I realized that there are alot of eggs who will turn up the edge in a big way as a way of coping
14:33 <LunaNightwind> I had the edge and i had the excessive facial hair when i was still trying to cope
14:33 <Schism> Oh. Different definition of edge.
14:33 <Schism> In Shadowrun, Edge is basically a stat which defines luck.
14:34 <LunaNightwind> ohhhh ok yeah i dont know the shadowrun system at all
14:34 <Schism> So say you roll 14 dice and get, like, 2 hits. (5s and 6s.) You can spend a point of Edge to reroll. Or you can use your Edge score to add to the initial roll, and reroll any 6s you get. Or you can burn Edge, which lets you escape certain death.
14:35 <LunaNightwind> oh that seems useful
14:35 <Schism> Yeah, but it's expensive.
14:36 <Schism> Edge regenerates at a rate based on GM fiat, so.
14:36 <Schism> Sometimes it's on a per-session basis, sometimes it's based on really good RP, sometimes it's based on other factors.
14:36 <LunaNightwind> so you have to use it responsibly
14:37 <Schism> Yup. Meanwhile, in the final session I spent it like candy, leading to this exchange. "Okay, I'm going to spend another Edge." "HOW MUCH DO YOU HAVE?!" "Six." "...what."
14:37 <LunaNightwind> LOL
14:38 <LunaNightwind> So i had a conversation with my brothers new partner last night and it made me laugh
14:38 <Schism> (6 is the maximum Edge allowed for most races -- humans get up to 7. Maxing out a mainstat like that is not unheard of, but as I was playing a jack of all trades, the Face and the combat medic...)
14:38 <Schism> Oh?
14:40 <LunaNightwind> ok so my brother has been friends with this person since like before i came out, so I was talking to them last night and they said to me, "you know if you hadn't come out when you had, I was planning on sitting down with you and having a serious conversation about you coming out as trans and i really dont think you would have wanted a 15 year old having that conversation with you" and it made me laugh
14:40 <Schism> Heee!
14:41 <Schism> Sometimes we _do_ need to appreciate the wisdom of youth.
14:41 <LunaNightwind> but like it is a real thing where you can just look at someone IRL and think to yourself that Yeah they are deffo an egg
14:41 <LunaNightwind> transdar
14:41 <Schism> Not really, but... some folks are more adept than others at recognizing signs.
14:42 <Schism> ... pff. https://twitter.com/okuudere/status/1446616373933887491
14:42 <LunaNightwind> oh like i couldnt just look at some random person on the street and think that but like If i get to know someone IRL and the signs are there you can tell
14:43 <Schism> Well, yeah, so they undoubtedly knew you well enough to notice this or that. X3
14:44 <LunaNightwind> they met me twice before i came out
14:44 <Schism> huh.
14:44 <LunaNightwind> and one of those 2 timess was literally just me saying hi
14:44 <Schism> I ... guess that does qualify as transdar, then.
14:44 <Schism> Unless your brother was sharing a lot about you.
14:45 <LunaNightwind> my brother didnt know before i came out
14:46 * Ali rolls around, unicorn shouldn't be up this early... but can't sleep and mind won't shut off.
14:46 <Schism> Well, I mean in general terms, but... well, I'm grasping at straws for an explanation here.
14:46 * Schism offers the Ali a cup of chamomile tea?
14:46 * Ali doesn't drink tea
14:48 <LunaNightwind> oof sitting on twitter, one of my friends posted to their timeline that their parents gave them the whole "we raised a son" speech, she got kicked out of the house for responding "well you didnt do a very good job now did you?" luckily she was just visiting them but still OOF
14:50 <Schism> I'm mentally preparing all manner of things for when I'm out to my father (and the extended family on that side). One such line would be a response to the classic, 'No son of mine is going to be dressing up as a girl.' The obvious retort is obvious.
14:51 <LunaNightwind> there are a couple retorts you could make there the simplist being "good thing I am no son"
14:54 <LunaNightwind> I am looking at a friends wishlist right now and everything on here is a gamer girl nessessity
14:54 <Schism> snrk. :3
14:54 <LunaNightwind> from the 36 pack of monster, to the Tifa Lockheart cosplay items
14:55 <Schism> Sigh. Am I the only one who wants to cosplay Quistis Trepe?
14:56 <LunaNightwind> oh no I would totally cosplay Quistis, Best whip weilding blue magic using teacher
14:56 <Schism> Yesssss.
14:57 <LunaNightwind> from the best final fantasy game
14:57 <Ali> One? *shot*
14:57 <Ali> No no, its seven *shot again*
14:57 <Ali> 13? *shot*
14:57 <Schism> Pfff. I'm glad that LunaNightwind and I at least agree that 8 is the best singleplayer one. Heck, I picked it up on Switch ...
14:58 <LunaNightwind> unpopular opinion, 7 is the WORST final fantasy and is super over rated
14:58 <Schism> No, I'd say 2 is the worst. 7 is pretty far down there, though.
14:58 <Ali> Its like in Megaman it has the same problem
14:58 <LunaNightwind> Schism I have found alot of trans girls think that 8 is up there with the best FF games
14:58 <Ali> Everyone is fanboy over 2 as the best game, but it has so many flaws
14:58 <Ali> I'll use a prime example of why 2 sucks
14:58 <LunaNightwind> if not the absolute best its in the top 3 for alot of eggs i have found
14:58 <Ali> Crash Wall
14:58 <Schism> I think we've talked about this one before. And 2, in the Megaman series? Eh. I find the second trilogy superior.
14:59 <Schism> 4, 5 and 6 had some really great level design, though some aspects were lackluster.
14:59 <Ali> Six suffered from the Jet and Power adapters
14:59 <Schism> Yeah, those weren't great...
14:59 <Ali> Five was easy due to the huge OP buster
14:59 <LunaNightwind> i will call Megaman 2 the best megaman SIMPLY because of the music
14:59 <Ali> Music yes
14:59 <Schism> The soundtrack, yes. No question, MM2 had the best.
14:59 <Ali> Boss design a hell no
15:00 <Ali> Hey guys, lets make a room
15:00 <Ali> block getting around it with crash walls
15:00 <Ali> Have the boss be weak to crash bombs
15:00 <Schism> LunaNightwind, hee. Admittedly, 8 also had questions of identity and memory and some pretty interesting details.
15:00 <Ali> And not give the player enough weapon energy to beat the boss in one trip unless they can use the items properly
15:00 <LunaNightwind> that boss has a little bit of lienency if you know the exact place to put a clash bomb to take out 2 of the boss eyes at once
15:01 <Ali> And they can't do shit if they have no energy
15:01 <Ali> Yes but that's knowing now pixel perfect stuff
15:01 * Schism gets Quezalcoatl a few AP, enough to use Card. From there, the game is completely broken.
15:01 * LunaNightwind repeatedly uses Draw on Schism
15:01 * Schism provides LunaNightwind with only one spell, [Hug.]
15:02 <LunaNightwind> all the hugs!!!
15:02 <Schism> But really, I'd probably have... hrm. Water, Tornado, and Meltdown.
15:02 <Ali> Meteor
15:02 * Ali dies
15:03 <Schism> Ali: Meteor is as naught compared to Meltdown, which renders every fight in the game trivial because nothing is immune to it.
15:03 <LunaNightwind> look all i need is to draw Cure a whole bunch then junction it to a stat and ill be unstoppable
15:03 * Ali only really played early FF, nothing modern
15:03 <Schism> PSX games aren't modern anymore...
15:03 * Ali is talking NES
15:03 <Schism> You must try FF6 at some point then, if that's at all interesting.
15:04 <Ali> Farthest I got was like 4
15:04 <LunaNightwind> PS3, Wii and XBOX 360 are all retro if you go by the 15 year rule
15:04 <Ali> See one FF game ruined my interest in the whole series
15:04 <Ali> Crystal Chronicals
15:04 <Schism> LunaNightwind, that's not quite sufficient. You want to get life item refine and buy a whole bunch of tents.
15:05 <LunaNightwind> I was over simplifying Schism but you right
15:05 <Schism> Equip every party member with 100 Curagas and you'll have 9999 HP across the whole party by the time Edea throws her ice bolt through Squall's lung.
15:05 <LunaNightwind> i know
15:06 <LunaNightwind> it takes a dogs age to get all those curagas but its vailid
15:06 <Schism> Eh, depends on how you do it. I _think_ Cottages refine into Curagas.
15:06 <LunaNightwind> OMG my hair stylist looked at me last night after i got my eyebrows waxed and she was like "OK LUNA When did you lose all this weight...you are so small now"
15:07 <Schism> <3!
15:07 <LunaNightwind> made me feel like a princess
15:07 <LunaNightwind> she also asked when she is gonna get to actually style my hair again
15:07 <Schism> Eeee...!
15:08 <LunaNightwind> naw she is like the only person i do trust to make me look pretty with a haircut
15:09 <LunaNightwind> she knows only to remove the dead ends BUT i just dyed my hair so no dice on that right now
15:10 <Schism> Okay, yeah. LunaNightwind, Tents refine into 10 Curaga, Cottages refine into 20, and Siren is literally the 4th GF you get. At this point, everything is _trivial._
15:10 <Schism> Also, no harm in having her take a look over... I know that dyes will frequently result in dead tips.
15:10 <Schism> But the money, that's the thing.
15:11 <LunaNightwind> i mean the money wasnt by biggest concern I mean... the wax cost 8 bucks, i paid 20
15:12 <LunaNightwind> i get a little spend happy when i feel like i feel pretty <_<
15:12 <Schism> I think euphoria does that to us all...~
15:12 <LunaNightwind> i literally tips 12 dollars on an 8 dollar service
15:12 <Schism> Sometimes you have to give that extra bit of appreciation.
15:14 * Ali uglymare's about
15:15 <Schism> hmm. CBC is requesting writers to talk about how climate change has affected them.

20:43 <Tiffany> XD
20:44 <Schism> Baaaack to work...
20:44 <Cepheid> Annnd I'm lost in the game.
20:44 <Schism> Hi, you must be new to Metroidvania.
20:45 *** Joins: rvd42_ (rvd42@Pony-lh506d.iqf6.gkle.0191.2601.IP)
20:46 *** rvd42_ is now known as LunaLaptopwind
20:46 <LunaLaptopwind> what game?
20:47 <LunaLaptopwind> what game?
20:47 <LunaLaptopwind> also schism good for you owning that you are cute today ^_^
20:47 <Cepheid> Metroid Dread. Also found where I was supposed to go.
20:48 <LunaLaptopwind> ive been so on the fence about getting dread\
20:48 <Ali> Last Metroid I played was Other M, I have no expectations
20:48 <Cepheid> So far it's good.
20:49 <LunaLaptopwind> yeah Other M kinda lowered expectations into "i dont want to buy this" levels
20:50 <Ali> The only way Dread can fuck up worse than Other M, is pull a Sonic Colors Ultimate
20:50 <Cepheid> That doesn't tell me much.
20:51 <LunaLaptopwind> IDK Ali they could talk about the baby again
20:51 <Ali> Cepheid, bugs, graphical issues galore
20:51 <Ali> Framerate drops
20:51 <Ali> Deleting save data
20:51 <Ali> THE BABY
20:51 * Ali PTSD's at LunaLaptopwind
20:51 <Cepheid> There are some framerate drops but not enough to impact the gameplay. Other than that...
20:52 <Cepheid> It plays a lot like Samus Returns on the 3DS.
20:52 <LunaLaptopwind> I love samus as a character but Other M was bad feminization fan fiction that tried too hard to give samus qualities of a trad wife
20:53 <LunaLaptopwind> and while they did try to make her badass by the end it was ruined by the rest of the story
20:53 <Ali> And having what's his face tell you you can use your gear
20:53 <Cepheid> None of that here.
20:54 <Ali> Want to use that Ice Beam? Can't, I haven't given you permission
20:54 <LunaLaptopwind> everything about Malkovitch has to do with the story in other M
20:55 <LunaLaptopwind> Samus was not under Malkovitch's command yet she still was completely submissive to the man
20:55 <LunaLaptopwind> again it was BAD fan fiction
20:55 <Ali> Yet sadly it was a main game, not some fan game
20:56 * Ali also still waits for Prime 4, like everyone on HL3
20:56 * Dappled waits on Lemmings 3.
20:56 * Ali chews on Dappled tail
20:56 * Dappled poofy tail.
20:56 <LunaLaptopwind> bad fanfiction written by a sexist that wanted far too much to remind you that samus is a woman
20:56 <LunaLaptopwind> the difference between prime 4 and HL3 is Prime 4 actually has a chance of getting released some day
20:57 <LunaLaptopwind> even if it does end up in a duke nukem forever time vortex
20:58 <Ali> I mean its been how many years now since they started over with Prime 4
20:58 <Ali> And we still only have a logo to go by.
20:58 <LunaLaptopwind> i believe that the reboot on prime 4 was in late 2019. then 2020 couls be considered a complete loss because of the pandemic
20:59 <LunaLaptopwind> at this point i am willing to consider Metroid Prime 4 as being 18 or less months in development
20:59 <Ali> So 2024
20:59 * Ali blehs and flops
21:00 <LunaLaptopwind> i would consider it a launch game for nintendos next console at this point
21:00 <Ali> By then they'll have to either port the game to their new console, or the Switch is ever eternal.
21:00 <LunaLaptopwind> it will get the zelda treatment
21:00 <LunaLaptopwind> at this point they might just wait till nintendo actually drops that 4k console
21:01 <LunaLaptopwind> i mean i have complete faith that the game will be great when it does come becaue its retro studios
21:03 <Ali> Well they are the main reason for the Prime series
21:05 <LunaLaptopwind> yeah
21:06 <Ali> Its the main reason I like Metroid at all
21:06 * Ali is just sad they don't own the first one
21:10 <LunaLaptopwind> blah im so tired but i am not allowed to sleep for a few more hours
21:13 <Cepheid> Really the biggest issue with Dread is the instant death mofos. A slower player would be screwed.
21:37 <Cepheid> I need a break from this.
