Troper Updates II, Part II

Go To

In which we get updates from the lives of tropers. Kinda like Twitter with more than 140 characters, but less than a blog or LJ.

Please refrain from excess venting in this thread. Talking about negative emotions is fine but it's best not to dwell on them for too long. TV Tropes is not suited to deal with mental health situations.

Been staring at my tablet for the last five minutes. Think my inspiration's run dry for today.

That was just one of numerous way the world of Drakengard fucks itself over. This LP has all the rest of them, in all their glorious insanity.

The story is kind of disturbing in the game.

Speaking of games. W H40k Space Marine Comes out soon :3

Does Space Marine look like it'll be good, Tuefel?

Also, I know I'm 38 pages late, but...

Driving in heavy fog?

Why did this remind me of this one suggestion on Whose Line Is It Anyway (UK version) that was quite simply "THE FOG." in a heavy Irish (?) brogue?

Flanker: Actually it does. It is a hack and slash with what looks like a nice blend of melee/ranged action. There are some vids up on gamespot.com

Hell damn, DRAKENGAAAARD!!!!
(I have just watched the continuation of the giant flying babies event. I totally agree with one of the youtube comments: "Drakengard: Making the End of Evangelion look like a pleasant summer's stroll since 2003!")

@Tuefel:

Huh, that does sound good. I'm tentative since previous GW games have been... mediocre.

@Adannor:

Well, I'm now reading that Drakengard LP. When do things get balls to the wall insane?

Well... Mostly after the first ending, in the new game plus and various endings and bonus chapters. Though the stuff beforehand is pretty interesting to read too, it just doesn't cut it as "batshit insane" after all the later stuff. Manah, for example, remains damn creepy throughout.

The weapon stories are also Grimdark all the way.

I'll keep that in mind.

I think I'll go through all of the updates starting from the beginning. That way, I'll savour the insanity that little bit more. tongue

Yes, that's the way to go. You'll also get familiar with the cheerful and upbeat cast.

I've finished building my first EDH deck.

I feel like it sucks, though. I'll test it later.

Currently stuck on an absolutely wonderful site, mostly deticated to experimenting the logical consistency of your philosophical beliefs. Did a few tests, and I'm still consistent in all of my answers.

Juan: Ooooh, cool. I'd be willing to give you a match with one of my suckier EDH decks later. Or the new one, maybe.

@Adannor:

Well, I noticed right from the start that Caim's default expression seems to be "pissed off". I wonder if that's how he approaches everything?

"Congratulations, Caim, you saved the world!"

"FUCKING HELL, I HATE YOU GUYS! NOW BUGGER OFF BEFORE I KILL YOU ALL!"

^Yes, he does [lol]

Meanwhile, Giant Flying Babies Of Doom ending gets more and more Evangelionesque with each cutscene.

And that's not even the last!

Back.

Not too bad, really. UST on the way home, but that's not surprising, and rather irritating...

Obviously, I'm psychic. Now, I wonder if I should use my powers for good or evil...? tongue

The "Giant Flying Babies of Doom" ending is starting to intrigue me in a rather morbid manner. It must be really loopy.
