The game is very divisive. It did poorly in Japan I believe and got very mixed reviews over here. Some people love it for its narm and charm, some love it for its genuinely good writing and fascinating characters and some hate it for its spotty production values and dated controls.
Its a pretty budget game and has really bad graphics for something released in 2010. Theres a reason it was released with a $20 price tag.
Personally I love it. York is fantastic and all the characters are great. Though it goes a bit too far into crazyville sometimes. The second and last boss fights are kind of REALLY FVCKING dumb.
Well, I was somewhat interested in the game.But seeing as how I can't play it, all interest has been lost.
Watch the LP of it. Its what I did, isn't that right Zach?

‎"Hi, Mommy.
I'm your baby. You don't know me yet, I'm only a few weeks old. You're going to find out about me soon, though, I promise. Let me tell you some things about me. My name is John, and I've got beautiful brown eyes and black hair. Well, I don't have it yet, but I will when I'm born. I'm going to be your only child, and you'll call me your one and only. I'm going to grow up without a daddy mostly, but we have each other. We'll help each other, and love each other. I want to be a doctor when I grow up."
"Actually, a three-week-old, thumbnail-sized lump of embryonic tissue does not have the ability to have hopes, dreams, thoughts, or feelings. It can not predict its future name, know its future hair color, or identify colors at all until it has been out of the womb for 2-4 years. However, the many unprepared and low-income women who find themselves pregnant DO have hopes and dreams for themselves as well as for any child that they would bring into the world. Maybe we should be less concerned with protecting lumps of cells (see picture) and more concerned with protecting women's reproductive choices."
I lol'd.
Went to the doctor today for an ear infection I've had for a longass time. For context, I almost never, ever get sick, and my ear has been leaking pus and blood.
He looks inside with that scope thingy they use on your ears for one second and drops all doctor pretense, saying.
"Yeah, man. That's bad." I'm practically deaf in that ear now, but that made me chuckle.

I'm pretty sure I told your dumbass to see a doctor for one of your ears months ago.
And see what happens when you don't listen to me? Now you will never fully enjoy metal again.
Your sorrow sustains me.
Quick question on the specifics of Rule 14 on game mechanics.
How do we resolve attacks, techniques, or otherwise that rely on a meter being filled? To give an example, say you need to block attacks to fill a meter, and once it's full can use a special attack. Or, you fill a meter by killing enemies, and once it's full you can use a special move. Another example, in Space Marine, Titus has a Fury meter that charges up as he kills enemies, and when it fills up he can activate Fury mode, which makes melee attacks stronger and heals him.
What I want to know is, how often can something like this be used? The meter is clearly a game mechanic, but the ability exists, and it is obviously intended to be limited as a "special" ability that isn't used constantly. I ask because Legacy of Kain features a similar mechanic, where Kain must kill enemies to fill up a meter (the in-game reason being that the Reaver absorbs blood and gets powers,) and then he's able to use things like a quick multi-hit teleport slash. Burning Thought seems to think that Kain can use this whenever he wants, but I'm of the opinion that Kain should at least kill a few people before he can do it.
What does everyone think? Opinions, agree, disagree?
To give an example, say you need to block attacks to fill a meter, and once it's full can use a special attack.
If there's a legit, need-be reason for the meter to be filled up then it's canon to that ability. However if its an obvious game'mech that has nothing to do with the ability, eg ''You can use the Hyper-Slash after filling up the 'Awesome!' meter, fill the meter by hitting enemies!", then it does not count as none of this has to with the ability. It is what it is until something can prove otherwise.
