Wulff

What's up guys, it's your boy Tobias coming straight at you with three broken fingers from the obstacle course today with more autistic anime opinions! You motherfuckers better appreciate this shit because it's going to take me like an hour to write this with 1½ hands while drugged to shit on pain meds... Actually nevermind, you don't have to appreciate this at all, considering I am doing this mostly for my own entertainment and this is the only place I can get an audience to sate my burning desire for attention.
 
So over the past ~3 days following the release of Overwatch I've completely isolated myself from all my friends and watched anime on my own in the evenings instead of socializing and being a real person. I am a spiteful asshole and when I can't play Overwatch myself, I definitely don't want to be around people who can/are playing it and are constantly talking about it. You know when you're with your friends and they've all seen this cool new movie that you haven't seen and they won't shut the fuck up about it for five minutes and you start wondering why you even bothered coming to hang out with them? That's what I'm talking about. Check your privilege please.
 
Now that we've gotten past the not-so-subtle jabs at my friends and a healthy dose of self-deprecation, I'd like to take a moment to thank my good friend Alex for asking me if I wanted to hang out and watch some anime today. That was nice. Thanks man.
 
Anyway, here's what I will be talking about today:
 

 
Three short OVA that I think are pretty known among more serious anime fans and probably very unknown to your average fan.
 
Pale Cocoon
 
Is a single 22 minute episode OVA. I'll tell you right now that if you hate open endings, you should stay away from this one as the ending is very much a message that is up for interpretation rather than any sort of conclusion. Pale Cocoon is set in the far future and follows two young individuals who can be best described as futuristic archeologists. In this world it is clear that something has happened to the Earth, causing humanity to retreat into this massive underground construction for survival. Here Ura and Riko work for the "Archive Excavation Department", digging up old files of pictures, video and sound from the old world and trying to reclaim lost knowledge. It's a story about the different outlooks on life that people carry and the decisions we all make that end up defining us.
 
I very highly recommend it, as it is very well animated and carries a somber atmosphere not commonly found in anime.
 
Denpa Teki na Kanojo
 
With two episodes á la 40 minutes, Denpa Teki na Kanojo is much longer than Pale Cocoon and also very different overall. This OVA feels very much like your regular anime, at least to begin with. Juu Juuzawa is a high school student with delinquent tendencies who unwillingly gets wrapped up in the hunt for a local serial killer. Things escalate from there and the truth of the matter is that Denpa Teki na Kanojo starts out as pretty standard fare but ultimately evolves into something very, very dark. I interpreted this OVA as a look into human psychology on a surface level (AKA It's not really a "DEEP" anime, but it's very interesting regardless) and uses common anime tropes to give the viewer a sense of familiarity, only to have something gruesome happen shortly after. Is it a mind-boggling genre-breaker that should be viewed by all? No, definitely not. It is however suspenseful, well animated, disturbing and comes with a pretty good cast of characters. Honestly I would recommend this OVA to most people. It also has a lot of cute girls... Just saying.
 
Read or Die
 
Read or Die is spread over three 30 minute episodes and is honestly the kind of anime I would love to own a physical copy of. It's just so... Fun. I feel like I cannot talk in length about this OVA, because it would spoil a lot of the joy that comes with having this interesting world unravel before you as you watch it the first time. It has a great mixture of action, violence, comfyness and that spice of oddness that tends to come with Japanese animation. Honestly, Read or Die is just cool. Not much else to say about it. Many anime try to live by "the rule of cool" but very few manage it without coming across as super obnoxious and overly random (READ: Blood Blockade Battlefront). Read or Die nails it.

My dreams are starting to get more and more realistic and it's honestly becoming a problem.
 
I dreamt tonight that I was part of some kind of invasion force and I was walking about this fucking massive staging area, tons of soldiers, vehicles and equipment all over the place, everyone was running or marching off somewhere. I was looking for my group and was getting really worried that I couldn't find anyone. Then suddenly I heard someone call out "Dritte Kompanie!" which was weird because people weren't speaking German in general, it was just this guy yelling in German so far. Whatever, I had found where I needed to be, because I was third company and so I started marching towards the guy and there are a bunch of other guys who start moving in his direction as well. Eventually a large group had gathered around this guy and he yelled at us to form six even ranks. I formed up in the back rank but everyone started pushing me forward, I don't know what the fuck was happening. So I got pushed all the way to the front rank, no big deal. Then suddenly the lieutenant pointed at one of the guys in the formation and said "How do you say "Austria" in German?" The soldier he singled out didn't know and he was then told to get the fuck out of there. He then asked the question again but to everyone in the formation, rather than one guy specifically. I immediately piped up and responded "Österreich, sir!" and he was about to commend me on my answer when we suddenly noticed two guys had broken formation and were doing those really exaggerated movement patrols that royal guards and shit do. You know those really stiff and elongated movements? Yeah they were doing that right next to the formation square. At this point the lieutenant was done with our shit and just ordered us to move up, and we did.
 
So turns out that we were already in a combat zone because as we moved further away from the main staging area, sound of artillery and general fighting could be heard. We weren't being shot at directly or anything, we could just hear it in the distance. Third company had been ordered to use a tunnel that intelligence had discovered under a farmhouse in order to get behind the enemy's fortification. They believed it was a tunnel that had been dug by partisans before the area had been lost to them. So we get to the farmhouse and the lieutenant appoints two people as sappers because apparently parts of the tunnel had collapsed and needed to be cleared with explosive charges and those two guys ran on ahead to work on the tunnel. The rest of us eventually got to the farmhouse and made halt just outside of it. After some time, the two guys appointed as sappers came back out and said that they had failed to clear the tunnel, because no one had actually brought any explosives. The lieutenant then ordered us to get in there because we would just have to dig our way through with the shovels we had. For some reason, the door to the farmhouse was partially destroyed and was being blocked by something on the other side, so everyone started doing the whole "Call of Duty vaulting over waist-high obstacles" thing to get through the partially destroyed door. Now if there's one thing I've learned in Basic is that you need to make shit as fucking simple as possible because otherwise some retards will eventually hurt themselves, so when I jumped that broken door, I immediately got some guys to help me move the shit that was on the other side so that we could actually open it.
 
So we get the door open and the company starts pouring into the farmhouse. The lieutenant then orders us to fix bayonets because we were going into close quarters down the tunnel and we needed to be prepared for anything. Everyone immediately started fumbling with their bayonets and I remember being really puzzled at how loose and rattly my bayonet felt, even though I had attached it properly. I was getting one of the other guys to look at it when we suddenly heard someone yelling and screaming in panic down by the entrance to the tunnel. One of the other soldiers had cut his finger on his bayonet when he was trying to attach it and was now in a state of panic, insisting that we were all going to die in this war and that we should run as far away as we could right now. I turned to the lieutenant for orders on what to do with that man, but I think we had broken the lieutenant at that point, he was sobbing into his hands. 
 
That's where my dream ended.

Its possible that these arent dreams.

That's where my dream ended.

One of the technicians on base is a massive computer enthusiast, his personal space is packed with old computer parts and floppy disks. Outside of tinkering with computers in general, one of his favourite pastimes is obtaining and running infamous computer viruses using virtual machines and disposable (in the name of science) old physical computers. He willingly runs these viruses in a controlled environment and records pretty much everything that happens, both on video and with notes.
 
He showed me some of this yesterday and I must admit, even though I am a technological illiterate, seeing some of those things in action was very interesting. He showed me the "Living Death" DOS virus, the "Melting Screen" worm and the "HATE" DOS virus. Watching him navigate through the PC with command prompts and explain all the carnage these things were wrecking was very eye-opening for me. The Melting Screen one was quite cool and he got rid of it with relative ease, the Living Death virus complete trashed one of his old computers though, which was pretty scary.

I've been thinking a lot about it recently, because I can't put my finger on just what makes me not enjoy the game as much anymore. It's a combination of loads of the changes they're made over the years but I think the main one is the way in which challenges are presented, which I think is because of how many difficulty levels there are now. Having LFR, Normal, Heroic and Mythic is just ridiculous in my opinion.
 
When someone completes Normal mode, what real incentive do they have to progress onto Heroic? They get better stats, gear which looks the same as they already have (but is a slightly different colour) and which will inevitably be transmogged, and just the challange of completing something on a harder difficulty. The only thing that changes is that bosses get a few more mechanics, and more health. At the end of the day you're just seeing something you've already done, and there's no excitement in that.
 
I genuinely think that if Blizzard want to stop the decline of raiders that's been happening for a few years, then they need to really re-work how progression works in raids throughout the expansion.
 
Looking at WoD at the moment, what  reason is there to go to Highmaul or Blackrock Foundry? None. Better gear can be obtained elsewhere, and quicker too. Those are two (very good) raids that are now gone to waste, and now only exist for people to either A: Get legendary quest items from (for now) and B: To be farmed for transmog. It's ridiculous that content they make just become irrelevant less than a year after they release it. I know this isn't going to happen in Legion, but the best solution to a content drought would be making it so that the best way to get into the most recent raid would be by going through the previous tiers. It makes no sense to just have things like Tanaan Jungle to boost people past content which is perfectly fine. Plus if old raids weren't rendered moot when a new one was released you could keep the actual difficulties of raids the same, but only have LFR, Normal and Heroic (where Normal and Heroic are equal to Heroic and Mythic respectively on the live servers) and have the Heroic version of the previous tier act as the transition point to the next tier. It's not a perfect system, it would make raids harder in general, but there would be so much content to go through before getting to the final tier of the expansion that if a player made it that far then they would certainly have the skill to beat it, they just may need to get a bit of extra gear. Alternatively you could keep the item upgrade system (something which I really like) and use it as a pseudo-catchup mechanic where you could use it on gear from the previous tiers raid, once a new tier has been released (so Highmaul Gear could be upgraded once BRF was released, to give players a little extra help to progress into BRF, then let BRF gear be upgraded once HFC was out)

Found a screenshot of my old raiding Priest on Ragnaros. I was super excited to finally have THE Spriest trinket drop from MgT HC.
 
Memories of better times ;_;
 

Quite a confusing title. It had me wondering if this is a remake of Battlefield 1 or if its a WW1 Battlefield.
 
Nice to see that at least one FPS wont go full Halo, I'll bet that after CoD Infinite Warframe flops, Activision will run back to old war games. Or make their developers shit yet another futuristic Advanced Black Ghost Cops Warfare 7.

That looks like a modified Tuk Tuk vehicle, which I can tell you right now is not a standard piece of driving equipment in RDA. The LMG in the picture is also not loaded and there seems to be a civilian scooter parked in the background together with other vehicles spread around haphazardly. My immediate guess would be that this isn't actually the army and rather some people goofing off privately.
 
That being said, the image of someone leading the charge from that thing is great.
 
EDIT: I think I may have found the vehicle pictured. It's from a 2013 military show.

what is this and why is this wulff

His name is Karsten Leifman, so idk you tell me.

I wanted to believe ;~;

I spent only 7 bucks extra but Tobias and Thomas will be meming on my behalf

tonight is pizza night
