Alright, confess odd things.

For example, I'm jealous to my big brother becuase he discovered The Smiths first. Dammit, now I can't have a crush for Morrisey without feeling weird about it.

On the issue of female appearances being exploited in fantasy games, I'd much rather male appearances be equally exploited then have everyone have heavy body armor.

Amen!

I find a lot of male video game characters attractiveness is supposed to be their "charm or wit or humour" but quite frankly, bring on the sixpacks and hotpants!

I need a Nathan Drake and/or Chris Redfield pin up STAT!

Yeah, it bugs me that quite frequently in games the same gear is all-covering for male characters and skimpy for female characters. Everyone should be able to dress their character the way they want to.

I feel that character customization in general just feels dead these days, it's usually very tacked on and not very diverse. If you go back to the early to mid 2000's you'll find most character creators had sense of depth beyond face, hair and body type. Now a game is considered to have a good CC engine if it let's you pick from more then 3 body types. -sigh-

The games I played did. Star Wars Galaxies, and Tony Hawks Underground are the two biggest examples I can think of.

Speaking of games, if I'm playing a city/kingdom/whatever simulation of some kind, my city/kingdom/whatever will be named Gallifrey.

I sort of like Cracked, for some reason.

Especially that video Series they have, After Hours.

I loved cracked but I consider most their videos un-watchable. Most of their articles are gold to me though, especially articles by John Cheese even when I disagree with the points made. I forget his name though but their is one guy I don't like he's prone to wishful thinking, and Fan Wank.

Sounds like Dan I think. Or Michael Swaine.

But yeah, I prefer the articles, but I've been finding myself watching their videos more.

I once ran a grand simulation in the Sims 3 with Homestuck characters, then freaked when I forgot to turn Story Progression off and it started shipping everyone.

The story was some bullshit like it was a spacetime fuck up and they needed to secure the area before Jack Noir destroyed the town or something.

Possibly due wholly to my username of preference, I cannot help but envision the phrase "bear in mind" fairly literally whenever I read it.

The music video for Sting's "Fields of Gold" makes me cry, because I've lost a very important place to me just like Sting's character in the video seems to.

I feel a bit of panic every time I see a Private Message notification cause I worry it's an angry mod or angry poster or something.

Of course aside from an alert that a post has been thumped, the only angry PM I've ever gotten was a random weirdo who had it in his head that I've been going around insulting Amy Winehouse (when I've done nothing of the sort and had a great respect for her as an artist).

But still, anyone else get a "uh oh, am I in trouble?" feeling for no reason?
