The weaboo in me…
The weaboo in me…shouldn’t have access to the internet. Japan why do you do these things to us mere mortals?
I already talked about manga, about anime, VNs…So what is it now?
Writing mood.
So it seems in the last week I’ve been in a bit of a writing mood, as proven by the six posts since the 4th of July (would be eight, but I’m not counting the one I already had written and just hadn’t typed and obviously this one)
It’s quite a rare occurrence, even more rare is that they actually have a bit of structure and a tiny bit of an actual point.
More manga!
This was actually written on the 16th of April of this year (2014), I just completely forgot about it on the notepad and didn’t type it on the computer. Later today I’ll post my rant about “Paca Plus”.
As I had said, I decided to check Kengo Hanazawa’s other works.
So after finishing reading the already translated chapters of “I am a hero”, I started reading “Ressentiment“, and…
Good manga…
New theme!
After years using what was pretty much the default theme from a wordpress theme generator, I finally changed the theme!
To another nearly default theme from a wordpress theme generator.
But it’s a change. (for worse or better is still an open question, but a change nonetheless)
Should be better as this theme is based on “twenty ten” and I was having some trouble with some add-ons due to that.
I call it DarkMind, take that, I’m edgy as fuck. (I better be, thought hard about “What name would I give this theme if I was a pretentious web-designer emo.”)
Last post I said I would be ranting a bit more about eroges/VNs in the future.
Yes, I will.
A taste of my “To Do” List of VNs (adult oriented or not):
Paca Plus (just for the sheer WTF feeling of it):
Yandere:
There are more, I just don’t feel like listing them. And the two I listed are quite striking, any other game would pale compared to them.
Cross†Channel (18+)
Yeah, felt like playing an eroge, chose Cross†Channel as by the descriptions it seemed to be about crazy people who couldn’t fit in society.
The description might have been a bit exaggerated as I find the chars to be somewhat normal…or maybe I’m a crazy person who doesn’t fit in society.
Sure they aren’t exactly the pinnacle of mental stability, but who is? With the exception of the main char (henceforth MC) everyone is kinda normal.
I’ma gonna spoila youre shite! (read that with a Super Mario voice and accent, thank you.)
And yes, anything beyond the “Read More” tag is a spoiler, proceed at your own risk.
Also I may post more eroge rants in the next days, I’m in that mood. (it isn’t a good mood)
God dang youtube…
So, as usual when I have more free time than useful things to do, I went on youtube and looked at the “Recommended” videos list, which in my case is (normally) comprised of all kinds of DIY videos, some bushcraft videos, some political videos and some other topics.
Not today my son, not today.
Today it was all Mr. Bean, ALL OF IT!!
“Damn, you must have watched a fscking marathon of Mr. Bean in the last days, no?”
Nope, two videos, TWO.
Get out of here S.T.A.L.K.E.R….
Yeah, I’ve been replaying S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl. (I blame /k/)
And it’s as insipid as I remember.
Which given the overall theme/world the game takes place in is actually a good thing.
Moments of complete boredom splashed with silent desperation and lack of hope.
Areas like Lab X-18, where it is 90% anticipation of doom, 10% some actual threat.
And of course the drab Soviet building style that everyone, everywhere in the world is actually familiar with (at least some distant ‘cousin’ of it), they just don’t admit it and call it “soviet style”, that inherently inspires feelings of hopelessness.
And when I finish playing this, I will (finally!) play the next two games (Clear Sky and Call of Pripyat) which I actually never even touched. (despite really liking SoC)
And this is all, I just felt like writing something.
So I want to be a writer…
(no, I don’t)
But as I probably already alluded to somewhere in the blog/site/webthingie, I like to imagine stuff, hence most of my (now very dead) video game projects had quite a ratio of “plan pages” vs “work done”.
What am I up to now?
Nothing that will ever see the light of day, because:
- Writing in my native language (in which I astonishingly have a less intricate vocabulary than in English, and my english is by no means an example to anyone)
- I’m doing it just for fun
So what is it?
So I’ve been re-watching Metalocalypse
Had only watched the first two seasons, the third season felt kind of boring at the time.
So, now a couple of years later, I’m re-watching the whole thing.
And I’m right now laughing my ass off at the “Sexual harassment seminar” on the 6th episode of the third season.
Because that IS how sexual harassment works nowadays.
Male: “Is that a new belt?”
Female: “Yes, it is.”
Male: “It looks very good.”
*zaaaapp* that’s sexual harassment
And so on and so forth, just watch the video.
Well, that’s all for now, will probably post a thing or two about video games (you know, one of my Ranty Rants™©®) in a couple of days.
Will post something else that no one really cares about in a couple of hours, probably.
Another day…is today it seems
Last post I mentioned a motherboard that died an interesting death, it wasn’t that interesting, just kinda funny.
But first the Radeon 9200 did not start working just by changing the capacitor. I had it on a box for over a year, so I didn’t quite remember the problem it had, it was the good old garbled output that normally means something on the ram/gpu went apeshit. Pity.
The story on the motherboard goes like this (bullet point list edition):
- Watching some asian (either Japanese or South Korean, don’t remember) horror film using the 2nd PC.
- Suddenly a high pitched noise enters my brain, one of those high pitch noises that are high pitched enough to take quite a few seconds to get the direction.
- As I finally get it’s coming from the 2nd pc, I approach it and…
- As I’m pressing the power button to turn it off, it turns off by itself.
Aaaannnnddddd….it’s dead. (read that with the voice of the South Park bank guy)
