>Ocelot just wants so badly to be cool.
Is AZ the best gaming comic that is regularly updating?
Yes. It has been since Penny Arcade turned to shit.
>you will never take place in a devil's threesome with Katie and Ronnie
I have the sad
I kinda like how she makes a few random comics about whatever she's currently playing, even if it's an older game.
>>78654626
>Cute
>Funny
>Rocket scientist
Katie is my waifu.
>>78654636
The world needs more Metal Gear comics.
>>78654559
Honestly only gaming comic i check up on and its worth it every time
>>78654682
Indeed. Quality has been great for years.
>>78654670
I met Katie at a con two years ago. She's really nice. She signed the print I bought for free.
>>78654678
>>78654559
>A joke that hasn't been made before
Extra 10 points
>>78654678
Her MGS3 comics recently have all been gold.
>>78654710
The funny hting about her comics is that they become double funny if you've actually played the game, a rarity among gaming webcomics. They usually rely on non-game humor like "lol mario drugs".
I can't ever see revolver ocelot without thinking of this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYJARyE4QZE
>>78654769
That's definitely true.
>>78654761
I love Ocelot's face in panel 4. He is such a dorky little brother around his older sibling's cool friends.
>>78654804You mean his mother's cool friends.
awkward zombie and oglaf are the only good webcomics
There is another gaming comic that updates regularly called Life in Aggro, but it is very hit and miss. Very miss with their earlier stuff but getting better.
>>78654830
hello author of life is aggro
>>78654559
Comic is ok, artist is garbage and a Valve shill.
The comic during the whole paid mod fiasco was embarrassing
>>78654752
I just started playing that game recently and the conversations with Para-medic are funny as hell. Snake reminds me of Lyos from Dungeon Menshi.
>every Metal Gear comic ever
>something that happens in the game
>LOL NOW IT'S WACKY
>repeat
>>78654881
Have you gotten the one about James Bond yet?
>>78654899
No, I don't think so. Last one was about the Creature from the Black Lagoon.
>>78654881
Almost all of the conversations were great. I loved the one with Sigint about he mask

which one? The paid mods fiasco was in april but I'm not seeing any comics from around then that have anything to do with it.
>>78654843

Nope sorry. But I would probably think that too if I saw someone say what I said

Seriously. Metal Gear is one of the most ridiculous and cartoony series ever created.

>How's that?
>Because the internal feed mechanism is shaped like an infinity symbol

Whops my bad, confusing with someone else.
>>78654935

That game is pretty fun, though.
Still waiting for another entry to this series.
>>78655091
care to point me to any better gaming webcomics then?
>>78655097
I am truly embarrassed at how long it took me to get the joke.
>>78655106
I don't know why people didn't like the post-apocalyptic Advance Wars. Shit was cash.
Most of this boils down to "what if we apply gaming logic to real life". Incredibly easy.
>>78655085
>She's actually a rocket scientist.
What does that have to do with this? At least it explains why the comics tend to be so formulaic.
>>78655121
There are none because gaming webcomics were never good.
>>78655106
this is her best comic
>>78655127
Personally, I liked it just fine. That's why I'm still holding a torch for the series.
I'm Norrin in this comic.
>>78655094
Also, rocket science, despite the idiom, isn't the most complicated of sciences.
>>78655094
the change of country and localization actually makes the game better and the setting more unique tho
>>78655147
>>78655018
>>78655048
Nevermind, just looked it up and I'd forgotten that he does.
For some reason it just doesn't happen until well after he presumably died.
>>78655170
I don't disagree but it's still super weird. Even Little Tokyo in LA is nothing like in the game.
>>78655170
It's gradually become more of a problem and makes localizing odd. See: that game completely set in feudal japan, and chapter 2 of DD.
There's some big, infamous explanation for making it California though if you google for it.
>>78655165
At least she isn't a biologist.
>>78655194
>>78655170It's an alternative reality where the Axis won the war.That's why LA is completely Japanese.That's why German prosecutors have absolute authority in the American court systems.It's why the court systems in general are nightmarishly fascistic.

Does anyone have that ALL OF THEM one? The Wow one with her Tank character?
The site needs a "random comic" button.
>>78654559
God the art is so bad, can you believe it's still going on? I can't. Why can't it be better?
>>78655033
Subtle.
>>78655240
It really does.
>>78654886
I don't know what's funnier about this one. Snake awkwardly spasming in pain in the last panel or the very concept of playing MP3s on a gun.
>>78655233
I miss her wow comics, they were funny
>>78655265
The funniest part is imagining someone actually taking a shot like that in a Metal Gear game.
>>78655282
Yeah, even though I don't play anymore, some of them are my favorites. A lot of the TF2 ones are great too.
>>78655233
her archive page lists what game each comic is about just fyi
>>78655231
I love New Vegas but god damn that game has some issues with the amount of time spent on looting and inventory management.

You find it in Dremutij Swamp, or whatever it's called. Which is after the fight against the Ocelot Unit, but before the showdown at the ravine.

>>78654747
Didn't hiimdaisy make that mancrush/crush joke as well?
>>78656387
It's not a joke, it's explicitly spelled out in-game.
The fresh joke is Ocelot adopting the animal hat.
>>78656387
ocelot having a crush on big boss is just canon, not a joke that needs to be made
in this instance the joke is animal hats
>>78655438
Look at that retard wearing a school shooter coat and a hat indoors and then joking about being self-concious.
>>78656111
>>78656173
M'kay, so? I couldn't give a flying fuck what an artists political views are so long as they don't use their work as a blatant soap box. Shunning someone because they said something on another medium you disagree with is the kind of petty bullshit SJW's do. I'm above that, and so should you.

> I was mocking the fact so many screamed "KATIE MY WAIFU" while she'd consider their behavior toxic and steer clear from them in a heartbeat.
Why though?
Katie lives in my city and my city is sorta small so I get to read her twitter and watch her explore this dumb little college town and I want so badly to be like "stop by my pizza place and I'll give you a slice no charge" but that would be creepy.
>>78656615
It's a coping mechanism I think. There's a lot of pressure to perform well in a specialized mental arena and there's not much room for "grass is greener" type thinking.

Well the thing about AZ in general is you can tell it's just her doing it out of love when she's not busy doing rocket science.
so there's no soap boxing, no pushing this. It's just a girl who likes games and wants to say HEY GAMES ARE FUN.
She treats it with the proper level of seriousness unlike all those other faggots who think that video games need to be their whole universe

Fun fact. 99% of the game comic ideas Katie has are from a single AZ forumite name Omnithea who LIVES in the comic suggestion thread. She doesn't even write her own material unless it's about her life. Also one time Norrin wrote a bloody Jarate comic and tried to take credit for the idea.

Awkward Zombie as a comic is mediocre at best. I used to wonder why it was one of the few comics people don't flame to shit even though it's hardly ever funny.
Then I realized people only like it because Katie is one of those rare people who isn't a complete shit and actually likes video games.
>>78658710
I disagree with you on mediocre, but yeah, it helps when the author is a normal pleasant human being.
>>78658815
Always thought that one was pretty weak. Especially with Fox ham fistedly having to say "gun" for the pun to work, when someone would probably just ask "how does it work?"

New Vegas was Obsidian.
>>78658978
not him but the inventory system is still the same from Fallout 3, by Bethesda. Obsidian essentially built giant maps, new equipment assests, rendered a few new monster models, and tweaked some of the existing features while adding a bit more. They were essentially a super mod team

>>78656338

So someone explain to me how the Penny Arcade guys can't make comics about video games anymore because they have kids, but Katie can become a nuclear engineer and still put out funny comics about games?
>>78659814
Kids like shit games and take a lot of time, while Katie has become a stronger nerd.
>>78659814
because the money's in conventions not comics
>>78659814
Perhaps once Norrin puts a bun in her oven she'll also become a nofunallowed parent?
>>78659516
That's usually a running concept in the comic, no one ever picks the trainer that matches their gender.
>>78659837
I assume being a nuclear engineer takes a lot of time too.
>>78655144
I have played and completed every Pokemon game since yellow during release, I never used guides or the internet because I personally believe its one of the few series that should be enjoyed without them.
I only just found out about existence of shinys 2 months ago.
I can relate to that one.
>>78659666
Bethesda bluntly forced them to use FO3 assets to make the game.
>>78659951
Nigger what where you thinking when you found that red Gyarados then
>>78660070
Just figured it was just a red Pokemon .
>>78655127
It's not a Days of Ruin joke. The joke is just that the COs in the first two games are upbeat when there's a war going on.
>>78659951
oh man, the only time I ever found out about them was finding a shiny Natu in Gold out of the blue. Either I accidentally switched it off before saving or I let it get away, I forget which, but I spent hours subsequently in that tiny patch of grass in ruins of Alph trying to find that same Natu. Never found another shiny in my life as far as I'm aware.
>>78660087
Me too, thought it was just a one of a kind, a fixed part of the game story.
>>78657157
Muh nigga
>>78659483
thats because she coloured it the actual colour of rosalina's dress, rather than the team coloured bright blue the writer of that comic envisioned
>>78660156
I know, but >>78655106 said he was waiting for another Advance Wars game, and Days of Ruin was the last game of the series and there might not be another since it was a failure.
>>78660279
My apologies. Every time that comic gets posted, there's about a 50% chance of someone replying with a comment about Days of Ruin's tone shift.
>>78654761
Not even memeing but the
third row of panels is entirely unneccessary and ruins the joke.
>>78660324
it's an abridged version of a discussion that does occur in game so I feel it works well enough
>>78656425
Yeah, look at that retard wearing... wait, that is a drawing, there is no one in there wearing actual clothing. It could be drawn wearing clown clothes and it wouldn't mean absolutely anything. You're just a faggot.

And with the advent of 'weak' AIs vs the Deus sort, you can have an AI PC or NPC in your gun. And due to simsense and VR you can meet up with and have a 'physical' relationship. And with the world beginning to react to the CFD outbreak, AI in some locations are being given rights which probably includes marriage.
You can literally waifu an AI who lives in your gun in some municipalities of the UCAS and NAN.

Have you seen the suggestions she gets? All of the ones I've seen were pretty far removed from the final product, so Katie obviously doesn't just take ideas from other people and uses them verbatim.
Also, assuming that all of the comics that she gets from suggestions say so in the description (which I think is a safe assumption) the percentage is probably closer to 10% than 99%.
>>78658263
He should have been in the field at some point, or at least done more with the torture. When he had Huey and the syringe in his hand, I thought he was gonna fuck shit up. But he just talked in the same tone and poked him.

It better just not be the same shit but with sparkles coming off it

its rare
people want them cuz theyre different and rare
>>78669490
They where garbage. I know you nintendo fags where hard up for RPGs at the time because PS1 got all the good ones but Golden Sun was a piss easy, nonsensical pile of garbage.
>>78669597
It's a differently colored pokemon.
Basically just super rare with no changes to anything else and anyone who actually hunts for them is retarded.
Finding one always feels great... until you find 30 of them or literally everyone else has one, like it is currently.

Actually, Shiny pokemon develop IVs and EVs faster then normal pokemon and have slightly above average stats.
A level 50 pokemon leveled correctly vs a level 40 shiny pokemon of the same species, type, and disposition, would be evenly matched!
>>78671172
>shiny pokemon have different stats than any other random pokemon of that typeunless they suddenly changed this for Omega and Alpha
Also, you can't develop IVs.

>>78672692
>>78672357
find someone with similar aesthetics and personality traits to Katie, I imagine it's much easier than pining for the impossible.
>>78672749
Archers in fire emblem don't have a melee attack. So you can just surround them with your dudes at melee range and they won't be able to retaliate, or move at all.
Apparently Katie did this to then have a low level character kill the higher level archer risk-free for easy EXP.
>>78672749
In most games archers can only attack 2 squares away on the grid
So you can just have four guys hug one and he'll be completely stuck (since units can only pass through their allies)
>>78672749
Archers have a range of 2 and cannot pass friendly units. The red archer has been put in a position where he cannot move or attack.
>>78672749
Dude is an archer built for long range combat, everyone has positioned themselves one tile away from him. In the next turn dude will be horribly slaughtered with no way to fight back in close quarters. (I've never played fire emblem either)
>>78672749
Archers in most FE games (with Gaiden, Path of Radiance, Radiant Dawn, and Fates being the exceptions) are infamous in their disadvantage for bows only having 2 square tile range, therefore leaving them unable to attack or attack back enemies at adjacent square tiles.
Here Katie demonstrates trapping an enemy archer in one square who's unable to do anything.
>>78672846
I'm a sucker for comics that make fun of game mechanics.
Space Pirates are morons.
>>78655170
It just becomes increasingly hard to deal with as the games go on and become progressively more Japanese. Like, in Dual Destinies, that whole thing with the demon and the yokai thing holy shit. You could almost see the translators wanting to strangle whoever decided that these games had to be set in America and trying to twist the pretzel around it.

That's sorta-kinda true in gen 2, where Shiny Pokemon would always have an IV spread of 11 in every stat (out of 16, IIRC), so Shiny Pokemon were above average. It isn't true in any other generation.

I wish there were more jokes about how Metroid is relatively gritty for Nintendo fare.

That was the moment when I stopped over-thinking metal gear. Though I started with 3.
>>78673912
Isn't Fox's dad still alive?
>>78673787
Yeah, but none of them really seem to have anything to say about the world around them. It's not like when Arcade would give his thoughts about how to distribute the solar power through the Mojave.
>>78673912
It's weird Fox doesn't mention that.
Also, pardon my power level, but Ridley technically killed Samus' parents twice. He killed her adoptive chozo parents too. He's a bit of bastard.
>>78674010
no. only a spiritual ghost of ambiguity
>>78673787
Valentine and Hancock are pretty much the only ones worth a damn. Piper and Cait are the most wasted potential

It's a good starting place. Three is still the best of the series. And that's partly because Kojima didn't even try to give a fuck.

>>78677569
According to a quick google it's correct. By a long shot.
>>78677621
Yeah, but it's being compared only to published works. So, we really can't say for sure.
>>78677569
It's terrifying because it's STILL being written. That crazy bastard has neither abandoned nor finished it yet.
>>78677457
except fox cut off his legs so he wouldnt black out while escaping orbit in his r-wing
I kind of wish Rare was still Nintendo just so I could see AZ do something with perfect dark and banjo kazooie
Practically the only non Nintendo series AZ does stuff with is MGS and even then Snake was in Smash so that probably helped i dunno
>>78677087
This is funnier if you realize they made Samus have Ridley-killed-my-parents panic attacks in a game that takes place between panels 4 and 5.

>>78677798
We didn't even get a professional translation of 2.
>>78677801
I'm too scared to start it in case it is, but judging on the fact it's about a Pokemon Trainer and his Lucario exploring the Nintendo World, I'd guess it's probably mediocre.
>>78677842
Not present because the artist fucked up.
>>78654886
Pretty sure that was Johnny
>>78677911
I'm aware. It was still a damn good plot.

>First one I've ever played was Awakening. Archers can attack in melee range in that one
no they can't

I thought it was about Smash.
>>78677973
You gotta be kidding me
>>78655344
Lost it at Konami
>>78677911
The fan translation was spectacular, outside of a few voices and refusing to make the songs rhyme.
>>78677722
That...would not work.
>>78667555
It did. All of that because of one fucking puzzle early in the first game.
>>78654935
/vg/ fucking hates this comic because it shames their lolicon fetish
>>78678122
The other anon is right that amputee airpilots are slightly better at handling G-forces, but I don't think the difference is significant enough that anyone has ever done so willingly.
>>78678262
That's what makes Team Starfox the best.
>>78678122
It's a real thing explained stupidly. Vertical g-forces cause you to black out because blood rushes away from your head and to your feet. Pilots can partially mitigate this by having very tight boots.
SNES Star Fox box art shows fox with metallic, apparently amputated legs. Combine these two facts and you get what anon was talking about. It's not really canon, considering he's been shown with full legs though.
>>78678262
I dont see how. It's not like you have the same amount of blood in a smaller body. Your body just makes less blood.
>>78677457
fox doesnt have legs. Is the answer to Samus' question
>>78678359
It's a circulation thing Einstein.
>>78677722
not canon
>>78677722
You're one of those people who post Game Theory things and treat them all as 100% true/canon, huh?
I hate people like you.
>>78677722
Pretty sure popular opinion is that, if it was ever entirely canon in the first place (wasn't it only brought up in an American Nintendo Power comic for the original Star Fox or something?), 64 retconned that via the addition of the G-Diffusers in the Arwings.
>>78667555
In the Japanese version, the very first puzzle of the game involves a guy getting killed with a statue of liberty clock. It's mentioned that the victim just got back from an overseas trip. In order to solve the case, you need to put 2 and 2 together and recognize that the Statue of Liberty clock was a souvenir from that trip, so the time displayed was still set for America time (one of the witnesses claimed to have seen the time on the clock during the murder, so you need to figure out that fact in order to disprove his testimony).
In the US, they were afraid people wouldn't realize the game didn't take place in America and it would render that whole puzzle more obtuse than it was meant to be. They ended up changing the setting to America and changing the clock to the Tower of Pisa to imply that it was a souvenir from France. Then the French version had to change it to a Japanese landmark because the Tower of Pisa caused the same problem there.
It was like a puzzle designed specifically to fuck with localization.
>>78669721
>>78676778
its alright but it doesnt quite hold to the same standard as AZ... a little too much touchy feely stuff for my liking...
>>78678632
Or, you know, you could have had the game take place in California and only needed to change the time slightly instead of making a whole new model.
>>78677457
Samus and Fox are such cute friends
>>78678632
>They ended up changing the setting to America and changing the clock to the Tower of Pisa to imply that it was a souvenir from France.
The statue is The Thinker. Are you pulling this out of your ass? Or do you make the mistake of taking /v/ seriously?
>>78678724
I think it was almost made that they exist in the same universe. Hell, F-Zero is sort of canon to SF too.
>>78678791
I got the French landmark wrong, but that doesn't change anything.
>>78678822
>F-Zero
That's another game that needs a sequel.
>>78678822
But remember, the guy who looks like Fox's dad and has the same name as Fox's dad IS NOT Fox's dad.
>>78676778
It capitulated to 'trying to tell a story with dramatic tension' syndrome that is the bane of most humour comics.
>>78678884
Too bad that James isn't Fox's dad. It'd be funny that a hovercar racer went to a planet of animal and got a vixen pregnant.
>>78662705
This is like a Dobson comic if Dobson weren't a smug, defensive douche.
>>78678916
Dramatic tension? The story arcs are always a low point, but I've never thought of any of them as trying to be dramatic.
>>78654710
>that's how you spell the french laugh onomatopoeia
huh
>>78678102
The script felt stiff and translationese-y even in the early episodes and characters like Edgeworth, Gumshoe, and Kay lacked a distinctive voice in their dialogue. Although imo I think Alexander O' Smith is the only translator for the series who really knows how to that off.
>>78674020
He did? I thought the chozo just fucked off this mortal coil and acceded to do super bird genius shit.
>>78678848
It was The Thinker in the Japanese version too you mongrel. The only major graphical change was the colour of the passport.
>>78672820
Stupid dogs.

can some anon tell me what artwork the mask is referencing? all i can see right now is trevor goodchild from aeon flux, but i'm sure it's referring to some well known painting or something. maybe one of van gogh's portraits of his doctors...?
>>78659951
I started playing pokemon with Emerald. I caught my first wild shiny in White.
Since that time, I have replayed every game I own at least once: each time I replay a game, I fond between 1 and 3 shinies. I have no fucking idea why. My current play through of HG has a Shiny Machop, which I've turned into a shiny Machamp, and a shiny mareep, who is on his way to becoming a shiny ampharos.
All I can say for certain is: on subsequent play throughs, particularly if you grind a lot of levels, you have improved odds of finding a shiny.
>>78679942
Nothing specific, just French Impressionist painters in general. Impressionist-style painting. Yes, like Van Gogh, but nothing from Van Gogh or anyone else specifically.
>>78679942
Actual painting is "uncanny valley" with TF2's universe, and is a terrible disguise?
Spy is too good at painting that his disguises are bad, again because it's "uncanny valley" in TF2 land?
something along those lines?
>>78679984
I've only ever found two shinies. The first was a magikarp, which made me feel happy for about half a minute before sinking into THAT realisation. The second was a Feebas (in emeral, too), though, and that made up for it.
>>78680067
It's a reference to the woman who tried to "fix" a painting in a church.
>>78680229
Feebas is an awesome shiny.
My favorite is a shiny Arcaeops, which I had to breed.
Lots of time I spent on a stationary bike, peddling not in game and out of game, hatching all those eggs.
>>78680271
No it's not. It looks nothing like that.
>>78680320
god all those time wasted on that damn route

I wonder what Samus would have to say about all this.
>raised by hyper advanced aliens
>has personally killed arguably god-like entities
>>78683108
>Pikachu
>>78683253
Probably the same as Fox.
>>78683319
Fox did kill a god/andross in adventures
>>78683352
Andross was just typical mad science gone horribly right.
ah yes, being exposed to characters pre-import. So many wrong assumptions
>>78683319

in pokemon you can catch god, the first pokemon, space, time, embodiments of nature itself, etc in a little ball has a child

It's funny because Samus can turn into a ball.
>>78683108
I like to imagine that she does that on purpose whenever a discussion about religion shows up.
>>78682871
I would do that. In a heartbeat.
>>78683395
Let's be honest, that's how any animu character gets written in a Nintendo franchise. Or maybe just localized.
>>78678015
Lucario is in Smash Bros Brawl. Also, such a long fanfic has to have a tenuous relationship to the source material.Except Dungeon Keeper Ami, which still seems pretty faithful to Sailor Moon as far as I can tell.
>>78677863
Me too, brother.
>>78655143
The choice of Venus seems weird at first then you get into greek/roman mythology and it makes more sense.
>>78655143
I know it's mythology, but...
>Planet previously believed to be devoid of water- Fire
Okay, sure.
>Gas giant known for perpetual titanic hurricane- Wind
Perfect
>A near-earth planet whose only misfortune is having a terrible atmosphere- Earth
Eh, close enough.
>Scorched planet that's the closest to the sun...
>Water
Why is Mercury associated with water anyway? Like, even in mythology.... Neptune is a planet too.
>>78673422
I love Minish Cap
>>78683977
maybe it's because mercury is runny at room temperature and because it's the one that moves the fastest around the sun and across the sky (quicksilver)
>Eat your hamburgers, Apollo
>>78684134
So, that's mostly alchemy then.
>>78684205
Well, yeah. Golden Sun is entirely about alchemy.
>>78684225
I did not know that was the game being referenced.
I know almost nothing about Golden Sun anyway.

>changing the clock to the Tower of Pisa to imply that it was a souvenir from France.
>French version had to change it
>because the Tower of Pisa caused the same problem there.
what?
What?
Are you feeling ok?

Neptune wasn't discovered until 1846. A society without advanced telescopes wouldn't know it exists.

I mean France and Italy are in the same time zone, so it still wouldn't work, but yeah anon was retarded.

I'm a pedantic fuck but in Zelda there are more than just 3 godesses, it's just that it's the Three Godesses who made Hyrule and created the Triforce

none of what you said is accurate
In both the Japanese and English versions the trip is to Paris, and the statue is of The Thinker. The only change to the puzzle during localization was just the stated timezone difference, to adjust it from Japanese time to US pacific.
The statue/clock isn't even a souvenir from the trip, it was a handmade gift from her boyfriend. She took it with her on the trip to Paris and set it for the local time while there, but died before she could change it back when she got home.
This is an important fact because the statue doesn't look like a clock at first glance, but the killer identifies it as one in his testimony. He claims he knew because it's a common novelty item he had seen before, but it's actually 1 of a kind.

Most Chozo did. But the little remaining village that raised Samus was kinda betrayed by Mother Brain, who brought in the Space Pirates, who murdered everyon. In the games it isn't said explicitly, just that the Space Pirates fucked up everyone in Zebes. In the old manga though, it's Ridley who murders her other Chozo dad personally, and most people tend to keep that detail because it makes sense and because Ridley is a turbo asshole.

I love how they get goofiness and 4th wall breaking without lessening the serious plot. Also MG3 Paramedic is my waifu. I loved to liste to her talk about stuff and would totally take her to the movies them to the diner and hear her talk about movies all day.

I actually would have a conversation similar to The ones Snake have with her.
So para-medic, I found some red berries growing in a kind of pine tree.
>That's a tree from the genus taxus, all parts of the plant are deadly toxic with the exception of the berry but the seeds are toxic too.
Yeah, it tastes pretty meh.
>You already are some don't you?
No, I just tried some
>are you serious? you can't just put things you don't know in your mouth!
I already told you that I didn't eat it, I just tried it

She's a girl. Girls don't wear school shooter coats: they wear double breasted pea coats.

Noooo! My waifu denial powers tells me that she retired and spent the rest of her life watching movies in Japan while someone one else assumed the Clark identity and did the evil things! My waifu is a pure goofy maiden that likes to watch movies and give you health advises.

That's why you keep a puppy mill. Put about 6 dogs in a pen, make babies, get a replacement Gary every time you go exploring.

Alchemy is the dumbest addition, since there is no fucking way any living human would figure it out without an online walkthrough composed by people who looked at the source code.
The new Shields are a close second for dumbest fucking thing ever though. Especially since the skeleton AI update.
>>78656425
Are you okay Mr. Memer? It's clearly a drawing not real life.
>>78687380
I haven't been keeping up with it. What about the shields and Skeleton AI? There are shields now?

Shields go in the left hand (you can carry two items at once now!) And they prevent all damage (if they block it by right clicking). Problem is that they cover a good chunk of the screen even when not in use.
Skeleton AI now is way more aggressive, and moves in a weaving, unpredictable pattern of strafing while shooting. This means you *will* get shot at, and hiding behind an obstacle won't protect you for very long. Also their aggro radius is larger and their pursuit time is increased, meaning you can be wandering around at night just to have a distant skeleton start shooting at you, and then have that skeleton pursue you across the entire biome, shooting constantly.
Another complaint about shields: there is only one type, and while they can be decorated, they cannot be repaired.
Zombies also have a chance of spawning another zombie every time you hit them, which makes fights with wood or stone weapons a colossally bad idea. Don't even look sideways at the dark until you have diamonds, basically.

Why would people still need to amputate their legs to be better pilots if the future technology allowed them to create lasers and spaceships? You're telling me they invented all that bullshit without coming up with a more convenient solution?

I want to see one of those Video Games: IN REAL LIFE comics and videos put Phoenix Wright and everyone in a real, boring courtroom.
