    Skye reacted to Moby in The Binding of Isaac   
    The Haunt being way too tanky and annoying for the first floor in the game.
     
    I mean, it is already pretty annoying to fight as Isaac or Maggie, as every other character is a massive pain to get past it, with the 3 little haunts and then you have to keep leading him while watching out for the spread shot and brimstone.
     
    In my opinion, it appears a bit too much, I almost never had a fight with the Widow and the Wretched.

    Skye got a reaction from Simon in Anime General Discussion   
    By a stroke of luck, it seems I missed it.

    And then I thought I was okay again but then they show Simon in grief and then they play the beautiful piano music from the first episode when we first met them and what is all this ice cream doing here

    Twice by now, she's gone through two Irish ones too.
     
    Really great to see a right proper Irish accent, not a "Orish" one. Fucking proper  Moore Street Dublin accent.
     
    Great to see!

    Most people agree that the first half of TTGL is better than the second, at least the people I know. The ending is still hype as fuck regardless. Good on you for finishing it though. And as you can imagine, I totally understand that you couldn't finish KLK. I just barely did it myself.

    Ok, I just watched the vid, which is the only part I really care about.
     
    I rather enjoyed it for what I was expecting it to deliver: Atmosphere. You guys know how much I like TF2's universe's feel, and this look into (what  I consider to be canon) the backwater portions of the rockies in the TF2verse was pretty stunning. The town at the End of the Line looked comfy as fuck.
     
    Jokes and music were p ok too.

    The ducks thing is literally nothing.
     
    Its just a way to measure your e-peen.
    Buy this and you can compare your e-peen with your friends. If its too small, buy some viagra tokens and increase it on the spot! Getting your e-peen bigger means its easier to make it even bigger! But not that easier, we still want you to give us your money.
     
    And I dont have faith on the Spy/Engineer thing. Knowing how things go, we gonna have 100 hats, Demoknight stuff, another Rocket Launcher and at least 3 melee reskins for everyone but Spy and Engineer.

    Alright look. Obviously I can't sit here and say whether you will like Kill la Kill or not, who knows until you've seen it.
     
    With that being said, there are a few key notes that you should be aware of when watching KLK.
     
    It is created by Studio Trigger, an off-spring of staff from Gainax, more specifically, it's the people who spearheaded Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. Same director, same writer, same animators. It is VERY similar to TTGL in many ways. If you did not enjoy TTGL, chances are you won't enjoy this. Kill la Kill is a parody anime, exactly like TTGL. It takes the tropes of Shounen battle-anime and blow them completely and utterly out of proportion. It ends up becoming extremely ridiculous. Included in this list of tropes is fanservice, which is why the general amount of fanservice in this anime is completely insane. Kill la Kill was created on a shoe-string budget. It is the first TV production of Studio Trigger (Prior works being Inferno Cop and Little Witch Academia, both of which were straight to video). At times, the fact that they were a bit starved for money becomes extremely apparent. Those are the facts. What comes next is my subjective opinion, which will include bias.
     
    I heavily disliked Kill la Kill. I loved TTGL, but KLK was not my cup of tea. It's obvious within the first three episodes that the anime is taking the piss, to put it bluntly. Initially, I found that to be quite amusing, as the extreme exaggerations of shounen tropes are very apparent and honestly? It's pretty funny. Unfortunately, it never ends. At some point I realized that I was having a really hard time discerning what was supposed to be a parody and what was supposed to be actually serious and relevant to the plot. The anime ends up wading around in uninteresting plot points, half of which are never really resolved or are really pointless. The fanservice was also very uncomfortable for me to watch. I've been watching anime for a couple of years now. I know what anime is like, I understand that fanservice is a thing. Normally I can see past it, but the level of fanservice in Kill la Kill went from being slightly amusing to being genuinely disturbing within the first half of the show.
     
    I found the "humour" to become really stale within the first 8 episodes, I found the plotline to be extremely contrived, which I guess it was supposed to be (What with the whole "It's a parody!" thing), but actually doing something and then calling it a parody doesn't change the fact that it is still as bad as it would normally be, even if it IS a parody. Overall, the anime just ended up annoying me. Near the end, I was having an extremely hard time getting myself to watch it... Truthfully, the only reason I finished it, was because I had already invested so much time in it, plus I was watching it as it aired. I don't think I could ever marathon that series... Ever.
     
    It's not all bad though, I personally really enjoyed the artstyle and some of the character designs, not to mention that music is fucking AMAZING (It's Hiroyuki Sawano, who did music for Attack on Titan, Blue Exorcist, Guilty Crown and Aldnoah Zero as well). Seriously, even if you end up ditching the show. Listen to the soundtrack. It's a bit alternative at times, but I really appreciate it, even though I dislike the actual anime.

    Guess I'll post this here but I kind of wanted to talk about this puzzle thing in sonic boom
     

     
    starting at 7:30 (right after Dan asks for gay sex with the new editor)
     
    But that would actually be a really damn cool puzzle if it had been done competently. However the devs for some reason removed the puzzle element by not making you able to touch the wrong tile (7:50) and had bothered to actually make the lasers lasers instead of just red bars stopping in the middle of the room (10:20)
     
    Insert grumbling about how the grumps could've caught up on that if they had been paying attention instead of making gay jokes but that's not really my point
