I only got up to the (boss name spoiler incoming) Psycho Mantis fight. Tried that a few times, but since Grey Fox had already given me hell, I ended up dropping the game- I am disastrously bad at stealth. Incidentally, I've been trying and failing to get a PS1 emulator on my Vita to work for the last few hours.

So, I just got the MGS HD Collection for my Vita, which means I now have MGS2 and MGS3. I'm pirating the Graphic Novel for PSP as we speak, in case the original game is as difficult for me as I remember. Also got Catherine, but that'll have to wait (in great part because I don't want to let my parents to see that game's cover lmao)

I still don't know if you're throwing a curveball with the whole quitting thing bur play The House In Fata Morgana first, it might be the VN that rekindles your love. It was, for me.

HYPE IS NOT A HUNTER UNBEKNOWNST TO ITS PREY

1984 also begins on the 4th of April

Welcome to our humble abode! Ever17's English copies are VERY rare and go for hundreds of dollars, and Remember11 was never officially localized (you'd need to import and patch a Japanese version). That said, both are more than worth experiencing. Here, have an OST:

Go on, twist the blade harder ;_;

The issue is one of representation. When was the last time you watched a Hollywood movie with a protagonist that was not European or a white American? Just look at action flicks, superhero movies, average trailers or romance, etc.: The protagonists are overall overwhelmingly white guys. And that's a problem- If not an ethical one, at least on an artistic level: If the characters of a movie are of a known race (such as in the adaptations of Ghost In The Shell, or Mulan), casting white actors (instead of Japanese or Chinese ones respectively) is disrespectful to the source material at best. It also benefits everyone who likes movies to have a diverse array of protagonists and characters in the industry. That's the artistic argument, and it's basically the less controversial aspect of the issue. It's also a general issue that minorities/LGBT people etc. are not represented sufficiently in Hollywood, and when they do, they're often stereotyped greatly- there's a lot of stuff out there about how many Middle Eastern actors could only get cast in supporting roles and usually villains/terrorists at that. So there's some racial profiling and whatnot going on in Hollywood as well (remember last year's "#OscarsSoWhite" controversy?), and people who aren't white and people who aren't male and people who aren't straight are all looking for more representation. Whitewashing is an explicit denial of that representation, it sends a message: "Even though I should be hiring actors of another race to faithfully represent it, I'll go out of my way to cast white actors in those roles." This is the controversial aspect of the issue: Some people feel that all movies need to be as diverse as possible to offset the stereotyping and copy-and-paste casts that brought us to this point, some argue that these worries are completely pointless thanks to creative liberty, and some think that the whole controversy is a waste of time and that we should all just shut up and watch movies. No one else has the budget and outreach that Hollywood has in the movie industry, so Hollywood is held to higher standards than just "adapting other works into American culture"- Hollywood at this point has become a global organization and so it is beyond being something solely American at this point. As it is beyond being simply American, it doesn't have the "We found no suitable actors of that race!" excuse. This is why complaining about studios in other places hiring actors of the local race is frowned upon: No other studio out there has Hollywood's outreach and budget so it's more understandable that they'd be casting actors easier to find.

Might end up buying if it breaks street date in The Netherlands...

I CAN'T PLAY UNTIL SUMMER, FUCK

Does one of your exams involve scholarly analysis of Orwell's works, by any chance?

Always nice to see more companies taking note of the western market

edit: everything is memes. play fata morgana. PEACE

They're actually 20+ minutes each, but they DO feel like two minutes. Jesus fuck, y'all have to watch the first two episodes to get what I mean.

1.25 years later, and here we are.

Read like two minutes of Higanbana. This thing so far is the perfect antithesis to people who hate the original versions of Ryukishi07 works- the music drew me in from the first second, and the 4:3 photo CGs perfectly complemented the barren setting. The main menu is incredibly chilling for something so simple, holy shit.

There's a mirror up on a very popular website, and if you want to buy it and don't have cable, it's only a couple bucks on Amazon, per episode.

Guys, is anyone else watching the Samurai Jack season? It's on Amazon and Toonami. Holy hell. This is iincredible in every sense.

After trying to balance At The Mountains of Madness (by Lovecraft) and The New York Trilogy (by Paul Auster), I ended up having to stall both of them since I have to turn in an overdue term project by Sunday, which is concerned with Thomas More's Utopia. Reading it currently and it's a stunningly boring read.
