​Miiverse has boatloads of salt for every character though.

​Apparently this is made by one mad as hell Krystalfag.

Which is about the one fanbase that really, really deserves to get laughed at for their delusions all the time. I am very glad that they got fuckall in this game. Normally I can get a bit why people are disappointed with their Ballot Pick or favorite character not getting in, but Krystalfags deserve none of that.

​I sometimes wonder if completely fucked-up nightmares happen because our brains just glitch out all over the place, or that our subconscious is apparently totally fucked.

Got some really fucked up nightmares over the last few months. Not constantly, but it is varying degrees of horrifying and pure WTF stuff. Gonna tell them later here. 

​Here goes in order of Smash Direct footage:

- They start with introducing Corrin, the Fire Emblem: Fates Main Character. It's a Dragon Swordsman, yes the Dragon bit seems cool, but still, 6 Fire Emblem representatives. And they all use swords. And they all have Counter. Have fun with that. Corrin has some pretty neat moves though, but still, I wager that most FE fans would rather have seen the likes of Hector, Ephraim or Lyn. That is not even starting about the people who are quite justifiably fed up with Anime Swordsmen with Counter making up half the roster at this point.

-Cloud gets shown off after that. Another JRPG Swordsman, but has a loadable Limit Break meter which doubles as a Critical Meter. Instead of yet another Counter. The real show is the Midgar Stage, which has a Summon gimmick which honestly do look very neat

-Mii Costume bit. Tens of Thousands of fanboy hearts over the entire world get absolutely shattered by relegating Geno, Ashley, Takaharu, Tails and Knuckles to Mii Customes. Especially the Geno and Ashley bits are going to cause some salt, I wager.

-Final Announcement: The Smash Ballot Winner. It turns out to be Bayonetta. Almost everyone watching the Direct gets a funny feeling in their pants. Turns out Bayonetta was especially the favorite over in Europa, with a Top 5 in America and Japan, to first one overall (at least, first which was feasible, as Sakurai notes.) Moveset is based on her games down to the special effects, which means crazy combo time. Yet another Counter, which doubles as a Time Stop. She can do some absolutely crazy combos though. Pretty much made the Final Smash Direct for many. Oh, and a new stage too on top of that.

Release schedule:

- Cloud, Midgar Stage, Mii Costumes: December 2015

- Corrin, Bayonetta, Falling Umbra Tower Stage: February 2016

Welp, Japan Time in a few minutes now:

Feels strange that it might very well be the final Japan Time.

Yeah, I would be up for it too. Even if the closest thing I've played with squad-related multiplayer was Red Orchestra 2/Rising Storm.

So I bought FAST Racing NEO.

In all seriousness, It is a fucking good game. Good enough to satisfy my F-Zero fix. And the AI reminds me of GX's Story Mode in that I am not sure if they are really that insanely good or that they are cheating. But in all, a very impressive racing game for the WiiU. The visuals are great in that buttery-smooth 60fps motion, although you will spot the rather low resolution the game has at the start of the race. It is also already pretty damn fast on the slowest/normal mode. The middle mode is already crazy fast, and I wonder how the fastest/hardest mode will top that.

Boy, am I glad that I never bothered with social media to begin with.

​Practically, CS:GO became Revolver Ocelot: The Game for a few days.

​My driving instructor was a pretty nice guy. He was also quite big, which would probably have looked kinda comical to see such a huge guy in what was a pretty small hatchback.

Anyway, that was before he got wrapped up in a fraud scandal concerning the local football club.

But still, I got my driving licence when I was 19, after more than a full year of lessons, both theory and practical. Both exams took  two attempts, first time theory had one mistake too many (6 mistakes out of 50 with 5 allowed) and first time practical was a failure due to me completely spilling spaghetti with what should have been a simple reserve U-turn.

​Yeah, when he somehow ran out of money while having around eight times the initial funding goal. For half a game.

The man is a bigger economical disaster than Concempt and Keiji Inafune, and that really says something.

​I am still surprised that people still throw money at that utter hack, given his track record with wasting all of his backer´s money on shit not even related to the game, such as hiring DJ Phil Fish for a fucking huge party for the SF Indie Clique, before laying off a dozen staff members not even a week later, stating having a lack of funds. Why people still think that he will deliver a good game ever again is beyond me.

At least Running With Scissors had a few well-deserved towards Schaffer in Paradise Lost for that.

I don't get what the hype about Indivisble is honestly. It really looks like a poor man's knockoff of Valkyrie Profile, and the artstyle seems to be over the entire place, and at this point, I bet that people are more interested in the cameo cast than the original cast. I get the feeling they are trying to be a mix of many things while not excelling in even one of those things.

Not to mention, I wouldn't get my hopes up too much for it even if it gets funded. Indie Dev teams from San Francisco seem to have a habit for not being able to handle funds worth a damn or getting their projects stuck in development hell. 

Oh boy I wonder what they are talking about in TIAM now, let's see-

I

On the other hand, it makes me realize even more how relatively normal my uni classes are.

Still bullshit though, what if I don't want to put Steam on my phone?

To use in the event of OWG threads on /sp/. Yeah, this one probably requires some context.

​Apparently the jet was in Turkish airspace for less than 20 seconds.

Unless the Turkish are able to verbalize airspace warnings within two seconds, I think that they are not really telling the truth when they said that they warned the jet at least ten times.

​In other news, Guts finally got off the boat.

Now only Half-Life 3 needs to be announced to truly know that the end of times is near.

Still not giving them a cent. Then again, I never put money into a single Kickstarter anyways.

Also, it does not bode well for the game when every cameo character looks more interesting than the characters Lab Zero themselves made.

In other news, KF2 is getting microtransactions and crates and might end up like Payday 2 at this rate The game isn't even halfway done yet and they are already doing this shit.  Not amused by that at all.

Repeat: The game isn't even halfway done yet and they are already doing this shit.

​I wouldn't have touched the game in more than a year, if I didn't half-asleep clicked on the TF2 shortcut on my desktop instead of Awesomenauts a few days ago.

​Keep in mind though, that this is about the third major series of terrorist attacks to happen on French soil this year alone, with another batch of smaller terrorist attacks throughout the land. That Thalys shooting would have been a massive bloodbath too had the perpetrator in that case not been subdued in time.

I won't be surprised if France is going to crack down hard on every form of muslim extremism in the following months. They about completely fucking had it with their shit, and rightfully so.

I bet if we would jail everyone in favor of the backwards-as-fuck shariah law in Europa, that the terrorist threat is instantly lessened by a huge margin. The religion isn't the biggest factor. The rampant extremism within the religion is.

​Daily reminder that Sony All-Star Fighters couldn't get Snake and Cloud as playable characters while Smash Bros did.

How does Sakurai do this?

Have yet another ''Welcome back'' post!
