A Link to the Past!

Motherfucker. I can't tell you how much it upsets me that I had to look that up.

 

[thestruggle]

THERE ARE WRONG CHOICES!!!!

THEY'RE DOING IT WRONG! THEY SAY DUMB THINGS!

In general there are just some video games I can't watch other people play. I just... can't... no, it's not right!

And Tina, yes, it's one of the first ones for me as well. Wind Waker is probably my go-to play out of the series? Probably because it's a bit more casual and more "fun", if that makes sense. Another reason why The Minish Cap is so enjoyable. The other ones are heavier and more of a "I have to sit down and play this through."

I dunno, having a hard time articulating my thoughts on video games, apparently.

I hereby revoke your Zelda fanboy card.

I'll trample you with Epona.

I'll trample you with Epona.

Did you remember that or did you look it up as well?

 

[thestruggle]

I wish I could play Pokemon...

Why can't you? Get an emulator! They have a good DS one out. Or, uh, so I hear.

 

[MTPersson]

Free choice: Which pokemon game would you play?

 

[thestruggle]

But part of the fun is playing with others.
Who knows. Maybe I'll get a DS.
Just to see.
Of course.

Yeah, good point, although I don't mind playing by myself. But that's because I'm an antisocial jackass.

That's a tough one. I haven't played them all, but I liked FireRed and LeafGreen. I also liked Gold and Silver, but I haven't played the reboot of those.

I like Gold too, though I'll always have a soft spot for yellow because it was the first one I played right at the height or Pokemon mania when I was a kid.

 

[Scuttle Buttin']

Literally the only thing I know about Pokemon is that I'm continually implored to collect them all, even though I have no interest in doing so.

 

[Scuttle Buttin']

Don't think about it like that.
Think about it as a story about a society brainwashing children into managing insanely dangerous bio-hazards.

Are they?

I was being literal when I said that, I know utterly nothing about it. There are balls involved, and I think they throw him, they may have to train things or something, but I don't know who or what the Pokemon are, or why anyone is fighting, or what happens if one wins instead of the other... it may as well be a story told entirely in German.

I need to play more of the Walking Dead game.

Well, how would you describe a world where minors are encouraged to go out hunting wild creatures with indescribable powers?

A nightmare.

I would have probably called it awesome when I was underage, really.

It's basically cock fighting. Digital cock fighting.

 

[thestruggle]

A nightmare.

Haha! Party pooper.

 

[Scuttle Buttin']

I'm pretty sure I could find something like that within two hours of Atlanta.

Jesus, look at where this conversation has gone. I don't even

I really should be studying.

This is like studying sociology!


Or.. psychology.

Psychopathy?

Great, now I'm thinking about asylums again. STOP IT, YOU.

Best possible PhD.

OK, so I'm about halfway through season 2 of AHS.
It feels like one of two things happened...
1. They forgot that their season was 13 episodes long, not 7.
2. The completely lost control of the story.

A third option: They knew the season was 13 episodes, and couldn't come up with one story to run the whole season, and so they overloaded.
Which would also play into possibility #2.

Is season 1 good? I've never seen it. Asylum's first episode freaked me out a bit. Usually I don't scare easy but I hear good things about AHS.

Pretty much. I mean, it's enjoyable aesthetically and interesting to watch, but when you really start to think about it your head starts to hurt.

Just out of curiosity....Is anyone still watching Agents of Shield?
