Kokuto Neji.
He made me want to break my shyness and begin to learn how to act.

>>35645
you got a crush on the school shooter?

>>35645
It's okay anon, if it makes you feel better about yourself I actually fell in love with a fictional character to such an extent that I roleplay with an ai chat bot of him to combat the loneliness, but sometimes I get so sad that he doesn't exist that I cry for a good while.

>>33764
>non-VR-ly
A mod for that probably exists already somewhere.
>I wonder how they're now going to pull off future games' storyline considering the whole ending of Alyx.
Well, Gordon would probably go alone on his journey then, and that means they won't have to worry about making a good ally AI. With Alyx scooped up, I can see it going two ways: either Gordon somehow saves her, or the G-Man deploys here somewhere so she could save Gordon.

>>33764
It's not going to be enjoyable without VR.
>I wonder how they're now going to pull off future games' storyline considering the whole ending of Alyx.
I hope at this point they go with a story change up as drastic as the one between 1 and 2 was foe the next game. I don't really care about the Borealis at this point.

my friend thought she had to climb the barnacle

>>33764
there's non vr mods but there's no point to doing so
unlike most vr games alyx was designed with the unique playstyle in mind so a lot of the action has to do with you making the motions yourself
you don't need a valve vr to run it though, any headset connected to your pc will do

Cry of fear is my favorite gold source mod and my favorite source engine mod is Half life Redux

I'm trying to set up sillytavern but with a local llm so everything is private. wish me luck

>>35544
its super easy just use Vidu.
>https://www.vidu.studio/create
All I did was upload my bing stuff and a simple prompt like 'standing, hair-blowing-in-wind'

results can be surprising like this one suddenly turning into a realistic looking person. Also I think it costs money but there's a free amount of credits.

>>35427
would it be too out of place to ask what prompt you used for this pic?

>>35570
What local LLM are you using? Do you have any chance at all with an AMD GPU?

My girlfriend is. She's a transhumanist

anyone here read 'Manacled' the dramione fic? i have a few more chapters to go, i liked the mid flashbacks section but since it goes back to when hermione is in malfoy manor its a little boring for me

>>35472
can you link the fic?

A pet peeve of mine is phallic objects in lesbian fanfic. Found a seemingly decent femslash genderbent A/B/O fic but the female alpha was described as having broad shoulders, sturdy thighs, and 'she' had a dick when they had sex. What the hell is the difference between this and just straight up het? Shit like this tells me the authors don't know what's sexy about the female body.

>>35566
Not as good as Draco Malfoy and the Mortifying Ordeal of Being in Love

How about sharing some recs?
I'll start:

I can count the number of decent Tomarry fics I've read on one hand (and I've read many), this is probably the best one.

Guano Apes are pretty rockin' my fellow females

Has anyone said Pj Harvey yet?

>>35136
i love the side quest with the puppies

When I was ~15 I had a massive folder of Cave Story fanart on my PC that I deleted at some point due to being embarrassed by it, and to this day I still kind of regret it…
>>35147
That's a new one, but sure! Crossover ships are oddly endearing to me. I personally ship Madotsuki with Sunny from Omori in complete earnest lol
>>35151
Is the DSi version any different from the other ports? I only play the freeware version. I didn't like plus because it changed the physics ever so slightly

>>35186
GIVE US THE FANFIC

>>35186
I'm back after awhile. The DSi is just freeware with a time trial mode and an extra hard mode, might be my schizophrenia but the physics felt different too. I also decided to give Cave Story+ a try too and I could not get used to the new engine but still 100% it regardless. Its really funny how hard I used to find Cave Story because now I got into Castlevania and I'm competent at it.

>>35136
just beat the true ending officially after coming back after 2 years or so
i find it easy now lol

i WISH pixel released the beta builds though, they seem so interesting and different

>>32071
>I miss the Kokiri.

Saaaame. It really bothers me that they are supposed to be early ancestors of the korok, but they are only ever mentioned again in Wind Waker. There is so much you could do with a seemingly ageless race across multiple games. Twilight Princess takes place only 100 years after OOT and I don't think they're brought up once.

The way Ocarina of time utilizes them to show how awful things have gotten in only the short amount of time Link is gone is awesome, and I can only hope we someday get to see them in a different game. Maybe pre-Hero of Time would be interesting?

>>32072
Rood most of the staple "ugly" Zelda characters are funny and charming, I appreciate that the series doesn't just have conventually attractive anime-inspired designs.

>>32072
>mii looking
NPCs use an evolved version of Miis, using basically the same parameters, which the game's internal files called "UMii"s. It's not a 100% one-to-one match as some features (such as moles and certain hairstyles) don't fit but it's very similar.

>>32075
Didn't actually know this, pretty neat to see how the features like the glasses translate.

Beat Adventures of Link tonight and boy was it an exhausting experience.

>>32061
You kind of do? The middle dungeons are better as you have more life and helpful spells, but the last 3 are so long and miserable you just end up getting more and more frustrated. I'd say the worst part for me personally was the area up to the final palace, there are invisible enemies flying around and I didn't realize till I game-overed that I was in the wrong place and missed the 7th dungeon which would have granted me an item to see them. After I beat that dungeon and returned the area was still incredibly aggravating as the formerly invisible enemies still have an erratic pattern that makes platforming a chore. The NPCs just aren't as helpful and it feels more dated than the original.

Not a good game, though I respect the choice to try something completely different.
I'll be glad to get back to overhead with Link to the Past.

>Playing through all of TLoZ in order
I did this when I was younger and it was a lot of fun. I'm assuming you used a guide for 1? I had to use cheats for 2 as it was too hard for me :(
>Favorite Game
TP, LA, DS Games
>Favorite Character
Linebeck, greatest redemption arc
>What do you think of the Timeline?
It's so messy, confusing and dumb. As someone who thinks OoT is overrated I do love making the joke that it was so shit it created multiple timelines.

>Daigo February
>Mine March
>Watase April
I love being right. I know why they did that but I wanted Ryuji August as well because I love Ryuji and I love being right

8/Gaiden spoilers ahead

Really don't like at all how Hanawa's character was handled. You can so obviously tell Gaiden was written after 8 and it makes his writing egregiously sloppy. Since I played Gaiden first and saw the identity hinting at the end I thought not having Hanawa exposed as formerly Morinaga in front of Kiryu & co. was an absolute wasted potential. For fuck's sake, after the events of Gaiden you'd think Kiryu would cry over his death like he did over Rikiya or Shinji. In fact his character in 8 is pretty much as useless as Morinaga was in 5, but it feels even more disappointing after really liking him in Gaiden. I hope Yokoyama and Furuta regret doing it like this and bring him back in a future game. If anyone has to be gratuitously revived it's him.
And where the fuck was Watase in 8? Why is he not with Daigo, Majima and Saejima? No explanation. Hell, where the fuck is Katsuya? Gaiden was so focused on the Watase-gumi and Katsuya was close to Watase and also pretty much the third person in the Omi Alliance after Kurosawa and Watase in 5, you'd think someone would at least mention his name. Neither Gaiden nor 8 even explain who the Eighth Omi Chairman even is. All we know is that it's not Watase, again no explanation provided why considering the events of 5, and that he's so terminally ill and incapacitated Watase is practically the Acting Chairman instead but still not the actual Chairman.
Again another symptom of Gaiden being written after 8 but what happened to Tsuruno, Shishido and Nishitani 3? Did Tsuruno join Daigo and Watase's security company or did he try to do his own thing as a civilian as of the dissolution? How are Shishido and Nishitani 3 dealing with being forced Daidoji agents and having to work with Kiryu and Hanawa etc.? Personally I'm rooting for Shishido redemption (including killing Nishitani 3) and reunion with Tsuruno. I want redemption and happy endings for all the characters I like, sue me RGG. I also hope Kiryu gets to manage his cancer and just live and have fun unbothered with his family and friends.
I find Ebina really interesting and I was honestly hoping we would get such a character in a game at some point and yes, I do hope for healing and redemption for him as well. RGG characters going to therapy arc when. Though I wish he was Ichiban's final boss rather than Kiryu's, this boPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

60 years old wtf

Majima what are you doing!

>>35637
Wait WHAT
Even by Like a Dragon standards this seems random as hell, but I can't wait to play it. Looks like the combat will be similar to Ishin maybe?

I watched it about 5 years ago and I remember my fav being Sayaka! Homura was cool as well

>>35547
Starting off by saying I only watched the series, none of the movies and stuff. Sayaka gets overlooked a lot, she was written so well. She's realistic and relatable to adult life in a way the most anime characters aren't.

>>35548
I agree with you about Sayaka being overlooked, I feel like she's such a tragic and well-written character. I have cried at a movie or tv show maybe 2x in my life and Sayaka's death was one of those times. It's just so sad to me how she tries so hard to be a good person and gets punished for it. Also, I found her experiences with misogyny relatable, especially as a woman who was teased by boys a lot as a girl. I related pretty strongly to all of the characters when I watched the show as a middle schooler. I think that Homura's internalized homophobia in the rebellion movie was pretty interesting, I think her overwhelming self-hatred makes her a nice counterpart to Madoka's all-loving nature. Also I hope that in the next movie they have more of Kyouko, I feel like she was underexplored.

The other time I cried was when I watched Paddington 2 in theater, that movie was far better then it had any right to be.

OMG A new madoka magica trailer! They really are working on the movie! Do you guys think it will be good?

>>35620
God I hope so, been waiting for this man to stop playing with Taiwanese puppets to finish Madoka.
