Hey. The first game had a plot. *brick'd*
Wow. That looks amazing. YOU BETTER BELIEVE I'M GONNA PLAY THE CORGI STORY PATH NONSTOP. <3 And maybe some hippo too. A hippo could totally kick a cheetah's ass.
...I just had a thought. What do you think are the chances of Sol Badguy getting in? Guilty Gear has always been a part of Sony history. A lot of those big crossover "group photo" drawings centering around the Playstation show some GG love. I don't believe any confirmed characters are from overseas, but do you think it'll happen? Have they mentioned it in any press releases or interviews?
...I did not know that. God damn it I need to stop reading plot synopses on Wikipedia and start actually getting some comics I guess the Under the Red Hood movie doesn't count since that's animated. JENSEN ACKLES NEIL PATRICK HARRIS JOHN DIMAGGIO TOP-TIER CASTING OP OP BANME. Yo I love Jason Todd. Especially as played by Jensen Ackles. "Ok, well. Nice night for a run!" Yeah I'm pretty sure that honor belongs to Damian Wayne. The least favorite honor, not the dick-sucking honor. ...I mean, you could probably find something like that on rule34-*brick'd* There's a funny rumor behind that. Allegedly one dude hated him so much as to rig a bunch of devices to send in death votes by the dozens. The final tally is close enough that a guy with enough tech and enough hate could have tipped the scale. And like Jeff said, the backlash was such that he was eventually brought back, courtesy of Ra's al Ghul. (I like how the Batverse actually has a known, established method of cheating death. Y'know, just in case.)
Ugh fell asleep WAY before it started due to painkillers and I didn't leave the TV on, either. Really wanted to boost the ratings. Also the only reason to watch Casshern is for Dio. JERRY JEWELL SOSTRNG.
Yeah, I'm extremely new-school when it comes to these things. The slowness of the old videos is just not as funny anymore. Plus, they also do less work with video/audio effects, and that gets stale. The ones I posted are frenetic, but they're also the natural result of people whose styles and jokes have evolved over several years. Many of the references are to videos several years old by now. Compare Imaperson's new work to things like this (Mind those ear-rapes), and you start to see how far he's come. My personal preference is for the break-neck stuttered distortion madness, but there are other solid poopers (lol) who don't throw quite as much at you all the time. (As always, naughty language warning.) Ooooh. Baby gurl, we gotta get you some new favorites. Here, try these out: Yamas03 - Bloomin' Octagon arghivebeenshot - RED Team wants to battle! omgtsn - Let's play! Jetdaisuke! 50MB - Knut Is Tetris Mowtendoo - basically everything he's ever done (seriously the guy's phenomenal) Eh... He's all right. Very 2008, though. Can you take care of that out-of-thread? Not to be rude, but even if you're trying to help, the post is kinda spammy. And that's not quite correct, as if I'm not mistaken the intent is to discuss the hobby in general as well as our personal contributions to it. I believe it would be better suited to Movies & Media, although I doubt it's going to get moved back now.
When I was in college, I was far from home. There was a lot of stuff I didn't know how to do that I had to do daily; simple things that I didn't think I needed to be taught. My friends were small comfort when I always felt guilty for spending time with them. I knew where my passion lay, but none of the schools I went to had the curricula to suit me, so I ended up taking generalized classes, and my motivation always plummeted. The work would pile up, I'd get farther and farther off my sleep schedule, and eventually I'd be running on zero energy, depressed all the time, just kind of wishing it would all go away. So I made it go away. I left. I still think it was the right choice. I already have a two-year degree; any higher probably wouldn't have helped, at least not enough to make it worth the trouble. Jury's still out on the job situation, but right now I'm facing the prospect of possibly netting a super-cushy job for good pay if I'm willing to move a long way from home. I've had time to examine myself and my priorities, work on improving some of the factors that led to my failures in college. I'm coasting along, and some days I feel like giant chunks of my best years are going to waste, but I'm coming to terms with that. I'm starting to see the value in just getting up and doing something small every day, keeping the wheel turning. I feel good. I feel like doing something because it felt right, not because somebody recommended it, really paid off for me. Now, that's my story so far. Yours may not turn out that way. A degree may be a bigger deal for an electrical engineer. But you might also be able to get better work than I could. There are always small discrepancies to keep in mind. My point in telling you this story is to address what I think is a huge contributor to your anxiety: You feel trapped. You feel like this isn't going to work, and you're out of options if it doesn't. Forget what anyone says. Don't sweat it. Do your best in your current semester, and just reflect on your work and your feelings about it, and do what you think will work out for the best. If you think you can tough it out long enough to get your Bachelor's or Master's or seek an internship or whatever you're going for, maybe that'll be the boost you need. You can get real experience in your field. If you really feel like you're ramming your head against a brick wall, maybe it's time to withdraw. You know yourself, you can trust yourself, and if you'll be wasting whatever money goes into your schooling, you can make that call. Head home and try to get a job, a crummy one if you have to. It might be a grind, but you can save up, maybe get a small place with some friends, and ease into your independence. Take things one step at a time. You can always go back to school, possibly take classes one at a time from a local college. You might find that what was really killing you was the pace. Who knows? Whatever your options, and whatever you decide, just try not to let that feeling of entrapment overcome you. The withdrawal option is being utilized more and more. Without going into my loathing for the school system, the scramble for a degree has become superfluously competitive; yes, potential employers will look at whether you have one, but you will find work if you look hard enough, look in enough places, and don't give up, and the merits of getting a full four-year are being seriously blown out of proportion, if you ask me. Plus, if you're really set on your career path, there are other things you can do. Networking is a powerful tool; get to know the people you want to work alongside, whether they're professors right now or active workers in the field later. Ask them how they think you should proceed. Be persistent, attack from all angles. Someone is going to have an answer that clicks with you, and if they don't, well, don't be afraid to make your own way. Most of the focus of this has been on the "If you decide to withdraw from college" route, but that's only because most people are not going to seriously examine that. They'll pretend that withdrawing is a sin, or an immediate and permanent failure. They equate it immediately to "dropping out," which conjures images of jobless, boozed-out basement-dwellers with no skills, no life, no hope. That's horrifying, especially when you're in a position like you are now, and that fear somehow makes it more inevitable. But that is a lie, a scare-'em-straight farce unwittingly propagated by an older generation that doesn't recognize what the school system has become, and a younger generation that wouldn't have known any better to begin with. The truth is that some people just aren't cut out for college. The truth is that intelligent, upright, hard-working people do not emerge exclusively from the halls of an esteemed university. The truth is that either way works. Try your best the way things are now, but don't be afraid to admit if it's not working. It's not the end of the world. Better to let the battle go if it means you can still win the war. Either way, I hope things go well for you. Remember, doesn't matter what path you wanna take; you can only go places if you get up and walk.
When it comes to discussions or personal opinions, it's rarely as simple as "I prefer this over that." In that case, the strategy of dividing the one big decision into many smaller ones may be effective. Instead of shying away from a topic or saying you don't know, state what you do know and decline to comment on things you don't think you can speak intelligently about. I tend to dance my way through discussions sometimes. Or I make a point of trying to learn more, by asking the other person what they have to say about it. I do that a lot with politics; most of my knowledge in that arena is second-hand, or potentially third. When it comes to day-to-day decisions... just do it. Really, there aren't many life-ruining mistakes you can make when it comes to things like "What do I eat today." I mean, unless you eat McDonald's for every meal or something. Don't wait too long for the perfect 100% holy-crap-I-have-to-do-this moment, or else you might just lose motivation. I say that because I do that all the time. Impulsiveness can get you in trouble, but in small doses it also serves as a way to keep you active. It takes practice to get yourself to just make decisions, but it's always better than indecision. Making a pleasing choice feels good, and making a displeasing one teaches you which choices to avoid in the future. Sometimes what bothers people about the "I don't mind" response is that it sounds like you're not invested in what's going on. You're inattentive. Maybe you're coming off as lazy. In other cases, people just want you to make the decision. Just try saying something, even if you're not totally jazzed about it. See if you get a response. Or try it, if there are no objections. If people allow you to take charge and they don't like the result, they have only themselves to blame. Even small instances of indecision can reflect a core issue. That said, it's natural, and not at all unheard of. Just work on it little by little; nobody can expect more of you. Makaze's questions will help. Try to identify yourself, and work towards the goals you want. If you like to see people happy, learn (through trial and error if you must) what makes them happy and when. Direct your energy where you want it to go. And if you've never thought about where you want it to go, hey, no better place to start than there. Just remember, you won't change overnight. It's a habit you have to build. Kind of like a wheel that's sitting still; takes some effort to get it rolling, but then it almost does the job itself. Just gotta keep pushing.

I really don't get these sims. Like, is it just supposed to show you what you can ge-OH GOD CASTLE CRASHERS MUSIC KDJFHSDKJHGS WHY IS IT SO LOUD.
No no, ees joke. You missed the bit where we went from rational progressions relevant to the game, like >"I wouldn't want to be rude." >DROWN...
Headphones, but I haven't been on in years. Literally years, lol. And I didn't make any friends there.
Yeah, pretty sure it's JSRF-exclusive. I'd rather they stick to the classic JSR tracks, get the full original experience. But then, I can play JSRF any time. Even so, crossing my fingers they port that next!
Seconding everything that has already been said because you guys have great ideas (some of which came from me) and also: Hammiest Member Best Engrish Speaker KH-V Punmaster Member Most Likely to Drown Jay-*brick'd*
Welp, guess what I heard was wishful thinking. Good thing I have it on PS3, all I have to do is get the DLC~
