The Price of Reason

Translator of most Ys games, Trails in the Sky FC, Senran Kagura Burst & Samurai Shodown RPG.

SNK fanatic & historian.

Hard left pragmatist. I suffer neither fools nor bigots. Trans people are safe with me. Expect nonsense.
I manage okay, but it still kind of appalls me that we're looking at $90 for the new Resident Evil. I sometimes struggle to justify $70 for even great games. Easy to just wait and get them for much cheaper and usually much better/more complete versions as a result.

Both, of course. Ideally in public without warning.

You should sound like Terry Jones of Monty Python when he was in drag.

But it's good for customized porn, so... profit?

That sums up everything, really. It's not devoid of value, but it's not the end-all-be-all answer to everything like corpos are pushing. And their desperation to present it as such really makes it hard to acknowledge its actual legitimate uses.

I'm not as rabidly anti-AI as many. I see use cases where it actually can do things that can't be done otherwise, or where it can expedite tasks in a truly useful way. But I have learned quickly never to simply trust its output as reliable without external verification.

Is this your work? It's beautiful!

Fancy autocomplete, no matter the output. Which is why I find it difficult to take the "plagiarism machine" allegations seriously. It's just producing output that it "thinks" looks like what you ask it for.

Purportedly after forgoing the chance to work with Capcom. What might the universe be if that collab had happened?
November 25, 2025 at 11:20 PM
I get you. But let's have a bit of transparency: though we interact only occasionally, I think you're a good dude and I'm always happy to see you in my replies or feed. PUT THAT IN YOUR PIPE AND SMOKE IT
November 25, 2025 at 11:18 PM
I mean, I'm not NOT saying that...
November 25, 2025 at 5:45 PM
Sure, but it wasn't a disappointing follow-up to a more or less universally popular predecessor.
November 25, 2025 at 5:10 PM
Yeah, but that means Switch was their DMC3.

Which means Switch 2 is their DMC4, so the metaphor holds up!

I enjoyed it, but it doesn't hold up all that well to repeat viewings. It has all the hallmarks of a film heavily reworked in reshoots and edits. But the third act remains an unimpeachable chunk of cinema.

Honestly, the dub soundtrack works better. And that Intermix track. That's a deep fucking cut, right alongside Smokin' Suckaz Wit Logic.
