AND GAY MEN

wish i only knew passive aggressive nerds who like to fight all the time, but everyone I see is norm with apt social skills

did you know he died? it was very tragic

>It's that time of the month again
Tewi's already in heat?

Anonymous is a time traveller!?

Don't forget!

Woke up once and remembered then had a dream where I remembered and woke up again to remember to say "Rabbit Rabbit" for a third time! I'm gonna be super lucky this month.

I completely forgot until I saw this thread again. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

stabbing in that game doesn't work the way you'd think it would, you have to make a wide swing instead of fast swing. it also gets easier to stab and remove the knives from their head as you make better ones, so that "disconnect" was their way of handling knife tiers.

>>21399
BONEWORKS is amazing and is just short of being my favorite VR game ever, but if you had a problem with disconnect in walking dead then I have a feeling you're gonna struggle with it, since your whole body in that game is a physics object that moves around somewhat independently of you. also make sure you read the graffiti in the opening level, that's where 90% of the story is and everyone who ran through it complained about nothing making sense later.

it's amazing how you played so many games and only two of them are the ones I myself have played.

>>21397
You get the spice and wolf experience firsthand? Dang, hadn't even heard of this game and now I wish I had VR to play it... Well, that goes for most of these games as well, hopefully the price of VR drops sometime in the near future. I guess you haven't finished it yet, but is it just a take on what the anime's covered or does it go further into the LN?

was looking up pirated h-games and they're not too uncommon now that those developers are using Unity and it's integrated toolset for adding VR peripherals. Also some autotranslation mods for UI and stuff.

Would get one but it's not like a I have a spare $500 to spend right now dot dot dot

>>21407
all I can say to that is wait and save your money if you really do want one, all the cheap ones are garbage. the samsung odyssey+ used to be the most affordable good option and it was still almost $300. the pandemic nonsense absolutely destroyed the pricing on that, though. if you buy a cheaper one you'll probably just regret it and turn into another person saying VR is a gimmick and you hate it.

>>21403
Oh, thanks for the tips. I'll be sure to try doing a wide swing instead. I was actually doing exactly what you said and doing a fast swing thinking that'd make more sense for stabbing.

Also thanks for the tip on BONEWORKS. Normally I like messing with and looking at everything, but if it's just some graffiti (maybe like the mole man in Portal?), that sounds like something I probably would have missed too. The full body physics thing seems like a cool idea. I'm slightly anticipating some unnerving physics interactions after hearing people getting their guns stuck in narrow hallways or their crowbar stuck around their neck, but that sort of stuff seems a little rare compared to the over all great things people have to say about it. I'm just a little bit worried about how intense the movement is. I think I saw there's one section where you climb onto a sort of overhead conveyer. For one, I'm pretty afraid of heights, so I'll see how that works out, but the whole movement you can't control seems pretty disorienting as well. I suppose that disorientation is just one of those things you eventually learn to overcome in VR, but it's a little hard for me still.

>>21405
Maybe I didn't phrase what I meant exactly correct. From what I understand the game takes place in just one location and then there are a number of scenes between Lawrence and Horo as you stay there to avoid the rain one day. The explanation for just staying in one place is that you're technically a ghost that lives in this place and you're just inhabiting Lawrence's body to see from his perspective while they stay there. The second game looks to be a bit more interactive and they're proudly showing off their daughter, Myuri. I'll probably say more about both when I play through them. I must say, though, a full Spice & Wolf VR game that covered actual scenes from the anime or LN seems like it would be pretty amazing.

There was a site that catalogued native anime resolutions (anibin.blogspot.com), but it hasn't updated in a while. Up until 2019 or so, it was an almost even mix of 720p, 810p, 900p and 1080p, and whether those 810p or 900p shows had noticeable extra detail in 1080p rips depended a lot on the art style. I think most productions have finally switched to native 1080p over the course of 2020.

>>21331
CR and Funi 720p encodes still have a lower bitrate per number of pixels than 1080p. It's mostly noticeable in shows with high contrast/saturation and lots of action scenes, so that's the main criterium I now use for seasonals.

i stream my 'nime at 480p

I have a backdoor trojan and have a little window where I watch this guy's screen when he's streaming >>21356

I think most anime today is drawn somewhere between 720p and 1080p. But I think streaming sites only get a 1080p version that has already been upscaled if drawn at something below that. So the 720p streaming version is actually a downscale of an upscale. For this reason it's best to download the 1080p if you're getting a stream rip unless space is an issue.

This blog used to list the resolution of every show that aired every season but it looks like it hasn't been updated in a while.

Huh, that's an odd size.

drag more!

I have seen many MMD videos that use this as a premise

Oh, that reminds me that I forgot to mention somewhere that the artist's computer is out of order. He made a comment on his most recent pixiv upload about it.
I still don't know what to call him because I've seen different translations and such, but I put the folder name as Annyui because Ennui seems rude if it wasn't his intentional name.

i know i have some good art saved of this type of thing but i cant remember what tag it has or if it even has a tag

>>21266

For the specific OP example I'd wager it was definitely a nod to Slime or possibly to an Isekai trope that probably exists in a lot of that genre's stories.

However, I agree with the other posters that the idea probably didn't originate with Slime.

You're all being pretty thick-skulled... It's an MMO thing! Bosses and important characters always have names, whereas lower level mobs are just named whatever their race or species is.

>>21297
That actually makes a lot of sense now that you mention it

>>21297

I think there are two different concepts here.

#1 is regarding the act of giving something a name that in turn increases its power

#2 is the trope that things that have discrete names indicate that they have more power

I've only ever seen concept #1 occur in Slime.

I agree with you that it is probable that concept #1 was derived from concept #2, and that MMOs specifically are a huge influence on recent anime. However, concept #2 is a trope that exists outside of MMOs also, which is why the OP referenced DnD.

While pondering this, I became curious on where OP's 'popularized' question is coming from.

Which anime, other than Slime and TsukiMichi, have there been references to giving something a name which causes it to become more powerful?

Oh, thanks for bumping this thread because I completely forgot about something.
I did a search for demons and names and found this article which is a very informative and interesting thing about names in regards to demons and gods and so on: https://digitalcommons.brockport.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1044&context=los

'Bright' as illuminated

Last Origin again, huh. These characters keep showing up and I swear I'm not making the threads.
As for the question... never. I don't see any brightness in a cyberpunk world and isn't that the setting itself? People struggling to survive in an essentially fallen civilization with weakened bodies supplanted with tech and corporate kings fighting over dwindling resources. What's bright about that?

>>21351
>What's bright about that?
The glitter of neon lights, LED billboards, and holographic advertisements filling the air around you.

>>21352
Oh, that part is true. I think the OP is definitely a more optimistic setting, that's for sure. I'm not sure if you can call it cyberpunk if all the lights are happy and colorful like that. It's like uhh... I think someone once made a word that was the opposite of grimdark but I don't remember what it was.
Although, if it's the Last Origin setting then things are about to get extremely grimdark in that image's near future.

post-cyberpunk is what you're going for, i believe (another gem from the ministry of naming).
