The Flash
So I binged The Flash on Hulu over the last week and just finished it last night. Just wanted to get my thoughts on it in order.
First of all- It was, in general, a fun show and enjoyable to watch. If it wasn't I wouldn't have finished it in a week, if at all.
That being said it was also horrid.
First of all: The crossover stuff. While I fully understand that this orginally spinned off of another series, and thus need for there to be fanservice for people who came into this from it, I can't help but feel that it could have been handled better. Especially considering how Arrow isn't fucking on Hulu you idiots. And even if it were, what, are you supposed to watch both shows concurrently and jump between them at the appropriate episodes? That's fucking stupid. That aside, some explanation, maybe, I don't know, a minute of exposition? Of who the crossover characters are would have been nice. "Previous on The Flash: Some scenes WHICH WEREN'T IN THE FUCKING SHOW" wasn't nice at all.
And then there's Iris. Holy shit, Iris. She ruins all suspension of disbelief in the show because people love her even though she's in every single possible way absolutely unloveable. She's a straight up horrible person, and literally everything she does serves to make the viewer hate her more, and this isn't even hyperbole. Barry and Eddie were decent enough characters but the stuff related to her dragged them down a notch (despite being equally involved with her Joe somehow managed to get out fine but that's because he's a great character).
The last episodes were a complete mess. There's a huge setup for the showdown with the mastermind behind all of the machinations of fifteen fucking years, who also served as a mentor and father figure to several main characters, who has the same powers as the protagonist only better, whom the protagonist has never been able to best. The setup was fantastic, and was looking forward to how Barry would finally defeat him. So fuck the bullshit with them pulling Green Arrow and Firestorm out of fucking nowhere to gang up on him. Some people may say "why didn't Superman just show up and save the day in Dark Knight Rises" or "why didn't the Avengers just beat the shit out of the Green Goblin", but you know what, those people are fucking idiots and this shit just ruins the show you brainless fucks. Also, and this is pretty common with stuff handling time travel, the time travel stuff makes no fucking sense and is riddled with plot holes. If they erased him from fucking history, shouldn't that have undone everything from the past 15 years as well? And then there was the asspull of a cliffhanger. Fuck this bullshit.
The pacing was also terrible, and the attempts to connect newer episodes to older ones through minor characters kept falling flat on their faces (the ones with the Reverse Flash were decent); The show was at its best when it was being a villain-of-the-week thing. Also: What is up with how like 80% of the people getting killed or needing saving were Asian? It seemed pretty unbalanced considering how there were zero named important characters who were Asian. That and captain Singh felt a bit like ham-handed pandering to minorities, though Singh was for the most part handled well enough (aside from the one scene where he's hospitalised and they go out of the way to have a scene where they chide a nurse for not knowing that he was gay and the guy trying to see him was his fiance, which while probably not something uncommon in real life, did feel unnatural and out of place in the narrative; This felt particularly uninspired because the scene where he first indicates that he's gay with the burger in his office was comparatively well done). Now watch as people call me a privileged rich upper middle class white boy
So yeah: Fun show, but in a junk food kind of way, with emphasis on "junk".

You are shrewd, inner-directed and can be perceived as indirect.

You are motivated to seek out experiences that provide a strong feeling of discovery.
You consider independence to guide a large part of what you do: you like to set your own goals to decide how to best achieve them. You are relatively unconcerned with tradition: you care more about making your own path than following what others have done.

Jurassic World
So I watched Jurassic World.
Let me first talk about what I didn't like about it.
It was a Hollywood movie.
What, that wasn't enough? Alright, let me elaborate: It was filled with people doing typical Hollywood dumbass things (though the kids weren't as bad as the ones in previous films), main characters so astoundingly bland it was hard to give the slightest shit about them, yet another shitty out-of-place romance subplot that goes nowhere and achieves nothing, the Indominus Rex's being way too implausible at points, and everything involving the velociraptors and the last bits were fumbled around clumsily (Spoiler for climax, highlight to read: Also, the T-rex felt like it was channeling fucking Godzilla over there when it turn around to give the humans one last look before stomping off. You could seriously have played the fucking Godzilla theme there).
That being said it wasn't as bad as it could've been. It wasn't 3.
As a movie it's pretty bad. It barely stands on its own, and when it does manage to rise to its feet with knees shuddering like they're about to buckle anytime it does so with the help of its massive special effects budget.
That's as a movie though. As a piece of fanservice for someone who loved the first movie- Well, it's pretty fucking good. Not great. Not fantastic. Just good. But good enough. The gates, the visitor center, the callback near to the end to the end of the first film, the nerd with the Jurassic Park T-shirt and dinosaur figures on his desk (yes he's a shameless insert for all the nerds who grew up with the first film, but they manage to balance his screentime so that he's an actual character but not obnoxious)- All of this is for us. It's also for the children. The rides and gadgets, the park functioning as an actual theme park, the raptors, the climax with you-know-who working together (which works both for the kids and for the older fans, though I think it was fumbled a bit too hard for the latter to really enjoy it)- It's almost as if they went back in time and asked all the children watching the first movie what they'd liked to have seen, and then put all the answers they got right in. I also liked the ambiguously foreign CEO with his just-right balance of hopeless idealism and scruple-free business brain, and thought it a pity that he didn't get more scenes.
Unfortunately, I was ultimately let down by how it showed signs of potential and then just totally dropped the ball there, though. Corporations sponsoring new dinosaur hybrids, dinosaurs that aren't at all authentic because they're not made to look like real dinosaurs but to look like what people want dinosaurs to look like, the nerd sarcastically suggesting that they just let the corporations name the new dinosaurs whatever they want ("pepsisaurus"!) . It would've been great if they'd tossed in a mention of how contemporary research says most dinosaurs had feathers, and that the ones in Jurassic World don't because people don't like them. Talk about focus groups. Talk about greed. Just fucking TALK. But no, aside from two or three lines early on all of this is thrown out of the window for more chase scenes. The Indominus Rex was kind of a letdown too since it had too little screentime and didn't really put its abilities to much good use (it uses its camouflage thing, what, once?) and I can't help but feel like I'd seen it before in one of the bad Jurassic Park ripoff horror flicks we got back in the day.
But yeah. Jurassic World was fun. And I guess I liked it.
I want a T-rex action figure now. A big one, not something tiny like the silly Revoltech one which looks more cute than cool.
The thing about Jurassic World, though, is that it's a summer blockbuster, and nothing more. Nothing less, but nothing more. Jurassic Park, on the other hand, wasn't just a blockbuster; It was a Spielberg film.
Nothing in here comes anywhere close the Jurassic Park's greatest moments, which is a pity.

というわけでジュラシックワールドを観てきた。この手の映画にありがちだが人間がアホすぎて笑うしかない（もっとも、今回の子供はシリーズの中で一番マシだったが）、かつラブロマンスが場違いで蛇足。ただ、音楽に初代のテーマ曲が使われたり、例の門が再現されたり、司令室のオタが初代のロゴのTシャツを着てたり、初代のビジターセンターが出てきたり
と、初代のファンならサービスが多いので結構楽しめるかと思う。少なくとも３ほどの駄作ではないし、２とは同程度くらいの出来かな。あと最後のTレックスだが、新しく登場した怪獣が暴れるに暴れたらゴジラが出てきて新怪獣をぶっ殺して一度振り返って人間を見てから帰っていくという構図
にしか見えなかった。てか完全にゴジラ。しかも本編では言わなかったが公式によるとこのTレックスは初代にも登場した同一の固体らしい。一本の映画としてみるとかなり微妙で割りと甘い出来だったと思う。企業が新種をスポンサーしてるとか、顧客のニーズに合わせて恐竜を遺伝子改造してるとか
そういった面白い話が少しだけ出たが結局そのまま放置されたからね。もう少しそこら辺を掘り下げたらメッセージ性のある深い映画になれただろうに。
余談かつ毎回のことだが、日本語字幕が相変わらず酷すぎる。細かいワーディングは覚えてないが、「シャツが臭い、恐竜は匂いに敏感だぞ」と叔母さんがおっさんに
言ったが、恐竜を「they」と表現したからか、何故か恐竜がシャツになってた。シャツが匂いに敏感ってなんだよ！意味不明だろ！

This is interesting
So IBM has their supercomputer doing personality analyses. Gave it a go by running the stuff I've written on this blog through it, got this:
Seems pretty accurate, aside from the stuff about art and creative stuff which I'm actually pretty open to (even if I might not always understand it when it comes to some modern/contemporary stuff).
Edit: That's with informal text from the blog, I tried running some formal stuff I've written through it and got this instead:
Edit: Tried running through a much larger text sample of 6000 words each of formal and informal writing, got this:
You are a bit compulsive, somewhat critical and skeptical.
You are intermittent: you have a hard time sticking with difficult tasks for a long period of time. You are content: you are content with your level of accomplishment and do not feel the need to set ambitious goals. And you are unconcerned with art: you are less concerned with artistic or creative activities than most people who participated in our surveys.
Your choices are driven by a desire for discovery.
You are relatively unconcerned with tradition: you care more about making your own path than following what others have done. You consider independence to guide a large part of what you do: you like to set your own goals to decide how to best achieve them.

Godzilla 2014: Thoughts
Mutos were ridiculously weak but eh that was part of the setting, they're parasites and Godzilla's a god. Hopefully there's better stuff in the inevitable sequel (after all, if that shitfest that was Pacific Rim got one...)
The music was absolute shit. Not a single tune stood out to me. Would it have been to much to license Godzilla's theme?
And the fucking sound, ugh, those fucking inception horns, fuck those inception horns. Why the fuck do giant monsters make inception horn and Transformers noises?
I liked how they never once actually said Godzilla and stuck with Gojira all the way
LOL WUT JANJIRA JAPAN
Joe filled the role of the original Serizawa so Watanabe's character was totally fucking pointless. They should've named him something else.
Why the fuck is Godzilla's atomic breath now fucking FIRE? Where's the lightning? The Patlabor Godzilla parody I watched last week had the underwater lightning. THAT'S Godzilla, all those sparks and shit going off underwater, and lightning on his fins when he's charging. WHY IS HE BREATHING FUCKING FIRE?
I loved the roar though.
The finisher- WHAT IS THIS MORTAL KOMBAT BULLSHIT? Just breathing down its mouth would have been enough. Godzilla did that to Biollante and that thing in 2000. But the head was just way too much. It's fucking comical and out of place.
ALL THAT BEING SAID THOUGH.
All in all? Too much stupid yank stumbling around like an idiot, but otherwise a great movie. In fact despite all this it's still one of the better Godzilla movies (Mostly because most Godzilla movies are honestly pretty shitty, but still.)
Also the film was more Heisei Gamera than Godzilla. They just basically replaced Gamera and Gyaos with Godzilla and Mutos and called it a day. The movie was seriously the exact same thing only with additional annoying melodrama and with a yank stumbling around like an idiot. And you know what? I loved it. In fact this was what I was actually asking for. I've been going "why can't they just make a Godzilla movie like the Heisei Gamera ones" and then BAM, this.
It's magnificent.

ペルソナＱ主題歌 Maze of Life
歌詞を耳コピしてみたけど100％正解じゃない。てか発音がアレ過ぎて何言ってるのか分からない箇所が多い。とりあえず(???)は聞き取れなかった単語で、（）に入っている単語には自信がない（発音がアレか、もしくは聞き取れるけど英語として成立していないため断言できない）。気が向いたらあとで和訳してみるかも。

PERSONA Q SOUND OF THE LABYRINTH
Ain't it great, how we met each other
On this wild and tragic carousel ride
Ain't it cool, how it changed the path of our lives
Set us off on a new adventure
This carousel takes us round and round
This labyrinth of life
You can't tell up from down
Having so much fun,
We forgot to check where this crossroad's takin' us
But hey, here we come
This carousel
Spins us round so much
Sometimes you don't know, should you stay on or get off?
It's only just begun
Welcome to this wild maze of life
Ain't it fun, how this life is (???)

It's our choice, let us try to make them better
While a maze have laid in our dreams
This carousel spins us (sidewise)
This labyrinth of life
You can't tell wrong from right
Having so much fun
We didn't see the cliff
Past the help we found in our road
But hey, here we come

The force of gravity, your real (???) alibi
But in your heart
Welcome to this wild maze of life
Think you've got us (???) (???)
Think you've got a (webs oh-ho?)
It's all worse now but (???)
Spinning round and round/can't tell up from down)
Spinning inside your mind/can't tell wrong from right)
Up in a (double?) (air?) (it?)
Go enjoy the fun

Fan "translations"
You know, sometimes when I point out how shitty fan translations are, people (typically the translators or, inexplicably, their fans; That's right, pathetic fucks who are fans of fan translators) get offended and go "you do it then" and call me "elitist". For saying that only people who actually understand a language should claim they understand it. I'm such a stuck-up dick! HOW DARE I SUGGEST THAT ONLY PEOPLE WHO UNDERSTAND A LANGUAGE CAN UNDERSTAND IT, I MUST BE A NAZI.
But yeah. Is it really so difficult to, I don't know, NOT try and "translate" stuff in languages you don't understand?
Language isn't some sort of fucking puzzle where your shitty online dictionary acts as a magic spy decoder. Knowing what individual words mean amounts to fuck-all if you can't even tell how they join together. And saying "btw muh japanese sucks(/is not perfect/I'm not fluent) so this might not be accurate lol" is a fucking cop-out; People who don't understand the language tend to be stupid enough to take "translations" by people who have no clue what they're doing at face value.
So what I'm trying to say is: If you're going to add a disclaimer make it "I've never studied Japanese and made up this pile of steaming bullshit while consulting my online dictionary and did not consider context and syntax", because that's what it actually is. You worthless piece of shit.

My PS3 died
.jpg)
So yeah I'm going to go get a new one tomorrow, I guess. Supposedly it's possible to temporarily fix a blinking red light PS3 long enough to save your data so maybe I'll try that. I've never really tinkered with hardware before though so chances are that I'll mess it up, but then again I doubt I could mess it up any worse than it already is.
Edit: Youtube videos are telling me that removing the hard drive is a lot easier than I thought, I might actually be able to do this!
Need to go buy a fucking hairdryer first though.
Edit:
Edit: So I got a new PS3. I tried to salvage the contents of my old one's hard drive but nothing worked. Fuck.
Edit: But eh like I said on twitter (in Japanese though)- It's not like losing saves is anything new to me. It happened plenty of times in the 16 and 32 bit eras (I never lost anything on the PS2 though) and then there was the time some motherfucker stole my PSP along with a metric fuckton worth of saves (including my S ranks for everyone in Idolmaster SP, thinking of that still makes me wish for the fucker who took it to die slowly and painfully).
But anyway yeah. No matter how many times it happens... it still hurts.
Bah.
Edit: Tried starting the old PS3 up again, it worked for about five minutes before dying. I'm going to try the hair dryer thing again.
Edit: I never did manage to get it working long enough to transfer anything.
Bah.

The next generation of console gaming: My thoughts.
So yeah PS4 and Xbox One had shit announced at E3. My thoughts, compiled from Twitter and IRC:
First reaction to the Xbox One's announcements, on Twitter:
Reference: Microsoft defends the Xbox One’s licensing, used game policies:
Reference: Microsoft defends Xbox One: 'Digital is better'
Reference: Microsoft: PS4 won’t make us ‘change anything we’ve done with Xbox One’
Reference: Miyamoto: Nintendo's game ownership policy should operate "like a toy company"
Update: Xbox 180 happened.
"BEFORE: Microsoft: PS4 won't make us 'change anything we've done with Xbox One'"
First reaction to the Xbox One's announcements, on Twitter:
"PEOPLE IN YOUR HOUSE CAN PLAY THE GAMES IN YOUR HOUSE! YOU CAN PLAY YOUR OWN GAMES OUTSIDE TOO! FUCKING REVOLUTION"Further thoughts:
"I mean yeah you remember me raging over the PS4's retarded cloud shit abandon all your PS3/PSP/Vita downloads lololol no backwards compatibility bullshit. But it wasn't THIS bad. Basically Microsoft is making a game console that runs on Steam. Where you can buy discs as activation codes. And there are no sales. THE ONLY FUCKING REASON I USE STEAM IS BECAUSE THE RIDICULOUS SALES OFFSET THE DOWNLOAD STUFF AND BECAUSE I ALREADY HAVE A PC. There's no fucking reason for you to buy a new console just to fucking use Steam now is there. Plus Steam works fine offline. So uh yeah, Microsoft is fucking retarded."And then Monday came.
"The way I see it the only way the 360 did well at all is because they threw money at developers and got cod and haloes. Maybe they figured it's that crowd that matters the most to them. So fuck all the real video game players, the One's going to cater only to the teenage FPS player crowd? I'm fine with that because it means I won't need it."
"Seriously though the big One announcement yesterday. Basically what they were saying is YOU CAN DO ALL THIS SHIT YOU COULD EASILY DO BEFORE ONLY THIS TIME YOU NEED INTERNET AND OUR PERMISSION AND TO PAY FEES SO EXCITING AND REVOLUTOINARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Oh right Simcity, that was a thing wasn't it. People keep going on about THEIR connections. But you know sometimes it's the fucktards running the servers. You can have broadband and your console's still going to be useless if the servers are down."
"What I want in a console is: Once it's dead, ten years after it's dead, I can take it out and plug it in and pop a game in and still use it. Granted though that's kind of difficult with the current generation already because of patches and updates and shit."
Welp, looks like the One is stillborn. http://t.co/bjqUZciNFD
— wotn (@Weisskaiser) June 11, 2013
"Nobody wants a console that only licenses you your games. #dealwithit"
"Yeesh looking at comments on stuff and shit, some guy says he's on his third 360 and second PS3. How the fuck do people break their consoles so easily? The last console that broke down on me was the Saturn and that was just because I left it alone for too long and the battery thing leaked."
(In reference to a video of the Sony press conference):
"tl;dr HEY GUYS YOU CAN PLAY GAMES ON THE PS4 JUST LIKE YOU CAN ON EVERY OTHER CONSOLE EVER RELEASED (Cheering)"
"For some reason Microsoft fucked up SO HARD I kind of want a PS4 now. And I didn't really want a PS4 because of the no PSN games no backwards compatibility bullshit."
"https://twitter.com/Weisskaiser/status/344329707472445440/photo/1 hurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr THE FUTURE IS DISKLESS DEAL WITH IT SONY IS SHIT REMEMBER DUH TIME DEY GOT HACKED! So uh what happens if Microsoft gets hacked and you can't do the sign in once every 24 hours thing. Bam. But hey, if you get an Xbox One YOU CAN USE IT TO WATCH TV!"
Not me: "tv tv tv tv tv tv tv tv tv tv sports sports sports sports sports sports sports sports sports sports DOG DOG DOG "
Me: "You forgot HALO TV"
"Also some people going on about the One keep going on about the TV shit. That shit only works in America doesn't it? And seriously there's video rental and shit on PSN too isn't there. And fuck PSN I have video rental/streaming shit BUILT INTO MY TV. Why the fuck do you need an Xbox for that?"
Reference: Microsoft defends the Xbox One’s licensing, used game policies:
(About "a diversity of business models"):
"ALL GAMES ARE FREE YOU JUST HAVE TO PAY FOR THE ITEMS or YOU HAVE TO PAY $60 FOR THE GAME AND PAY MORE FOR THE ITEMS ANYWAY! DIVERSITY"
(About "Mehdi noted that purely digital game marketplaces like the iOS App Store have thrived despite having absolutely no physical media."):
"iPhone games don't cost $60-100"
(About "While the Internet is decidedly up in arms about the way the Xbox One handles game ownership and online check-ins, Mehdi said it was "hard to say" what the larger reaction from the less attentive mainstream consumers would be. "):
"tl;dr LOL NO LIFE INTERNET LOSERS GET A LIFE WE'RE NOT SELLIN THE XBOX TO YOU WE SELLIN IT TO DUH REAL PEOPLE OFFLINES"
(About: "Things like live TV support and exclusive NFL and Skype partnerships will also help show consumers the Xbox One's "tremendous value.""):
Me: "TV TV TV TV TV TV TV SPORTS SPORTS TV TV TV TV SPORTS SPORTS TV SPORTS TV HALO TV SERIES TV SPORTS DOG"
Not me: "durr hurr hurr"
"See what they're doing with games on the One, it's not too bad IF IT WERE ON THE PC. Because you know PCs can be used for other things as well. Who the fuck wants to spend half of a thousand fucking dollars on a video game console that doesn't let you own your fucking video games? Besides retards."
"And seriously, TV, NFL, Skype? That's supposed to give the thing tremendous fucking value? I don't think I even need to fucking explain why no that's not fucking value at all you fucking moron. Also 'We're trying to do something pretty big in terms of moving the industry forward for console gaming into the digital world.' COMPUTER GAMES ISN'T DIGITAL DRM IS THE REAL DIGITALS!!!!!!!!"
"Seriously though this boils down to 'people on the internet are stupid no life losers we're going to sell plenty of Xboxes for real'. Really now?"
Me: "Whoa am I seeing things right or is the PS4 only like twice the size of the tiny model PS2"
Not me: "...it looks like two of them stacked together."
Me: "I like it. Better than the PS3 and 360 at least. PS2's still better. And the PS1's design was iconic"
"MAN that PS4 controller is UGLY"
"Nothing new but yeah the PS4 controller is an ugly piece of shit. And don't get me started on the glowing parts, God."
Not me: "http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2013-06-13-right-now-oddworld-new-n-tasty-isnt-coming-to-xbox-one-or-xbox-360 Way to fuck up. But seriously, Microsoft is fucking stupid."
Me: "Yeah they're applying that policy to indies too and had the cheek to say "Nobody has been more committed to indies than Microsoft". INDIES YOU AINT REAL GAME COMPANIES GO FIND YOURSELF A PIMP OR FUCK OFF"
Reference: Microsoft defends Xbox One: 'Digital is better'
"So uh, DRM is digital and nothing else is? See if you really thought digital better you'd provide free digital downloads alongside games with no DRM, that don't require the disc to play. What you're doing isn't promoting "digital" you stupid fucks, it's just treating your users like fucking criminals on parole who have to check in every 24 hours to show that they're not pirating like a bunch of untrustworthy scumbags."
Reference: Microsoft: PS4 won’t make us ‘change anything we’ve done with Xbox One’
"Last nail in the coffin"
(In reference to "When you look at games like TitanFall,… have you gone through Titanfall yet? Enough said. Conversation over. "):
"Yep. Conversation over. Conclusion is that you're a fucking moron."
(In reference to "uh,… it’s safe to say that we’re confident where we’re going. We’re also confident that gamers are going to love our vision of the future and what we’re going to offer for gaming”)
"A BLIND one."
"Your vision of the future isn't too bad, but the future isn't now and you're doing it wrong. Dumbass."
"Dumbfuck of the day https://twitter.com/Weisskaiser/status/346155150462820353/photo/1 STEAM CAN WORK SO XBONE CAN TOO! No it can't dumbfuck. Did you spend $500 on a new machine just to run Steam? That can ONLY RUN STEAM? "I being an INTELLIGENT gamer know that MS is doing things right also I have a JOB and MONEY so I will buy BOTH consoles" hurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Sseriously this retard comes off as being one of those MS spokesmen. XBONE GAMES ARE DIGITAL. Unlike all them other analog vidyas right? Even EA, FUCKING EA, saw that nobody wanted DRM bullshit and got rid of their online pass bullshit. How blind do you have to be?"
"This isn't about fanboys trashtalking each other. This is about the direction of the industry. And Microsoft is trying to lead it the wrong way."
Reference: Miyamoto: Nintendo's game ownership policy should operate "like a toy company"
"Miyamoto has the best idea of what games should be like. Pity Nintendo isn't following up with their locked-to-console download bullshit."
@dohertymark If your account is banned, you also forfeit the licenses to any games that have licenses tied to it as listed in the ToU. ^AC
— Xbox Support (@XboxSupport1) June 14, 2013
Update: Xbox 180 happened.
"BEFORE: Microsoft: PS4 won't make us 'change anything we've done with Xbox One'"
"AFTER: As a result of feedback from the Xbox community, we have changed certain policies for Xbox One"
"Family sharing and cloud library gone? What happened to THE DIGITAL FUTURE?"
"Irrelevant now that MS is backpedalling, but still worth a read. >Unwelcome Innovation Earns Gamers’ Jeers"
"Said this on IRC but WHY ARE (well, were) XBOX ONE DOWNLOADS STILL AT FULL PRICE? Going digital cuts a LOT of costs. The One as it was might have worked if games were like, say, $30. When you figure in the costs cut and used game sales eliminated they might've made even more than what they are with disc-based games. Instead, no, we still have cunts insisting on charging $70 for fucking downloads. Fuck you. This applies not just to MS of course. I can get Masoukishin for like 2000 yen new but it's 7000 yen on PSN? Fuck you."
"Taking away the family sharing and cloud library though, why? It's not like they can't coexist with discs. Make it so that they only work for DLs or something. Personally, removing the features reeks to me of WAHHHHHH I'M NOT LETTIN YOU PLAY WITH MUH TOYS ANYMORE"
"Related: Where does my money go?"
"What worries me about the Xbone is how they can just undo all that DRM shit with a single patch. Suggests that the inverse is possible too."

English fandom annoys me, what else is new
Quoting myself from somewhere:
But yeah, a lot of English wiki pages (of both Wikipedia and the extra shitty topic-specific varity) on Japanese-related topics are filled with bullshit written by ignorant cunts who write articles on Japanese books (or games or whatever) even though they 1) haven't read said books (or played the games or whatever) 2) DON'T EVEN FUCKING UNDERSTAND JAPANESE. They get all their bullshit from retarded fansubbers spouting rubbish on forums or wherever the fuck and add in more stupid bullshit they made up to fill up the gaps and call it "theories". And then when someone who actually knows fucking anything at all comes and removes their shit they go all HURRRR VANDALISM WHERE'S YOUR PROOF. And when you actually give them proof they go "Japanese sources don't count because I don't understand Japanese!" even though the article's about something that is only fucking available in Japanese.
Am I seriously the only fucking person in the world who sees how fucking stupid these idiots are?
Oh and once there was an article so fucking stupid it got articles in the Japanese news. I linked the news article to that article's talk page and the people writing it said that they knew better than the Japanese, because what would the Japanese know about Japanese stuff.
Seriously.
Anyway yeah long story short any English wiki article on any Japanese media is full of shit and written by ignorant pieces of shit and I'm grumpy and get mad just thinking about things that happened years ago.
Seriously though fuck those cunts on the megaten wiki. And on wikipedia.
Edit: Mentioned this on IRC: http://world-manga.at.webry.info/201204/article_25.html
Yeah. Just look at these cunts (no I'm not in there nor would I ever consider joining in).
Edit: Oh and I just want to point out how these stupid fuckers kept insisting that the mastermind behind P4U was Nyarlathotep and GUESS WHAT NYARLATHOTEP HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT YOU STUPID FUCKS.
Okay I've been seeing this mentioned on pretty much all the English-speaking forums I've been to and it's been bothering the shit out of me and this is the only place I actually bothered to register on with a Megaten thread so I'm just going to let it off my chest here.
WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP SAYING THAT YHVH FROM 2 IS 3'S LUCIFER'S BIG NEMESIS?
Lucifer constantly says that his enemy is the "great will" (大いなる意思). Kagutsuchi says he was created by the Great Will. YHVH SAYS HIMSELF THAT HE TOO WAS CREATED BY THE GREAT WILL. The Great Will is clearly a separate entity. Lucifer explains the Amara universe as being created and controlled not by YHVH or the yuiitsushin or whatever but by, yes, the Great Will. Maybe a botched rubbish translation in one or more games caused people to get this wrong, I've only played the games in Japanese and it's pretty clearly stated.
Kagutsuchi:
「…大いなる意思は、かつて世界に自由を与えた。」
Blah blah the Great Will gave the world freedom
Lucifer's aide explaining the Amara universe:
「あなたの知らない何処かで、また幾万、幾億という世界が生まれ変わっている事でしょう｡
それが…大いなる意思の元にさだめられたアマラの摂理なのです｡」
Blah blah that is the rule of Amara determined by the Great Will
After you join Lucifer:
「あなたこそが、長い連環を打ち破り、暗黒の天使とともに、大いなる存在をも打ち破ってくれるだろう、と期待してもはや引き返す事はできません」
Blah everyone thinks it's you who will help the dark angel to defeat the Great Existence blah
YHVH himself:
「宇宙の大いなる意志は何度でも我を生み出すであろう……」
The Great Will of the universe will recreate me as many times as necessary as long as blah blah
Furthermore IIRC the explanation of the Amara universe in 3 says something that can be interpreted as each world having its own Kagutsuchi-like being in charge of it which probably refers to stuff like Babel and Polaris and Brahman and yes, YHVH.
So like yeah anyway YHVH isn't the Great Will.
Edit: Also people never seem to mention the Buddhism spin on things introduced in 3 even though it uses all those Indian terms from it and you know is about reincarnation and stuff. Lucifer's desire to break the cycle of reincarnation pretty much makes him Buddha.
Just saying.
Edit: And I just randomly googled some of this stuff in English to see what people are saying about it and hoooooly shit the Megami Tensei wiki contains stuff that openly contradicts what is clearly stated in the game. "It is strongly implied that stuff we made up that says the exact opposite of what the actual game says is true YHVH IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONCEPTION AND HE IS THE MULTIDIMENSIONAL KAGUTSUCHIS GREAT WILL WITH POWER LEVEL OVER 9000". Wow.
And whenever I complain about English wikis someone tells me to go edit it myself but the last time I tried doing something like that the territorial dicks who had been "working" (i.e. making up shit) on the article before me reverted all my edits, asked for evidence, claimed that anything in Japanese doesn't count even though the article was on a game that wasn't out in English yet because they didn't understand the language, and then called in some of their admin friends to threaten to ban me for vandalising the page.
