The Political Thread

All about that Yeezy life. Maybe it's time to break out some College Dropout just because.

Just sit back and chill my brothers and sisters.

The Political Thread

This shit is out of hand.

I wish Jay didn't apologize to these brainless idiots replying to this tweet. Political correctness is a disease.

The Book Club

None of these will be picked in any specific order when it comes to listing a top five!

1. What is the book you recommend to about everyone?

Sword of Destiny by Andrzej Sapkowski. It's a book of short stories revolving around the witcher Geralt of Rivia. Beautiful stories, and perhaps my favorite fantasy book of all time at this current moment.

2. What are your top 5 favorite books you've read?

- The Tower of Swallows by Andrzej Sapkowski - Fourth Installment in the Witcher Series
- Deadhouse Gates by Steven Erikson - Second in the Malazan Book of the Fallen. Have not finished this series yet. It's quite long!
- All The Pretty Horses by Cormac McCarthy - My time with Cormac has been limited, but I have many more of his books waiting on my shelf to be read. With that said, I have read this and The Road and the two are enough to make him one of my favorite authors. I adored this book.
- The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway - *sigh*
- Before They Are Hanged by Joe Abercrombie - I just really enjoyed the hell out of this whole book. Adventure. Grit. Banter. Old and dead civilization far larger and superior to new civilization. It was full of all the things I enjoy in fantasy.

I expect this list to transform like crazy once I actually have time to get back to that reading lyfe.

3. Top 5 authors?

- Ernest Hemingway
- Cormac McCarthy
- Andrzej Sapkowski
- Steven Erikson
- Mark Twain

4. Worst book you've ever read?

A Journal of the Plague Year by Daniel Defoe

It's a classic. It's taught in high school. I hated this book with every fiber of my being. I did not finish it. I willingly failed a test on this subject matter because I could not endure this text. The experience was the equivalent of having sandpaper roughly ground into my eyeballs. Perhaps, one day, when I'm feeling especially masochistic I will subject myself to reading this one more time.

5. What book seemed really popular but you didn’t like?

Hunger Games - It's meh.

6. What five books have you always wanted to read but haven’t got round to?

- Suttree - Cormac McCarthy
- Blade Runner - Philip K. Dick
- The Black Company - Glen Cook
- War and Peace - Leo Tolstoy
- KJV Bible

And goddamn, let me tell you. You beat Lu Bu and think, fuck yeah, I've beaten the motherfucker of all motherfuckers in this game. Buuuttt then you get to He Fei on the Wu Campaign and you remember Zhang Liao being not so hard to beat but sometimes a little annoying.

But nooooooo, in He Fei he's the friggin' second coming of Lu Bu the destroyer of controllers. Gives you that +10 Attack when you kill him too.

Need I also point out the HORRIFYING nature of ARROWS in DW2? Ah, what a game. What a game.

<Snipped quote by Gwynbleidd>
I think I spent the most time with either Dynasty Warriors 3, 4, and 5. A lot of good memories, atrocious voice acting (which steadily improved) or not. Honestly, I think my favorite Dynasty Warriors title is probably Dynasty Warriors 5: Empires over all of them and that's a side title.

@Inkarnate

5 I didn't like so much for whatever reason, except for Ma Chao because Ma Chao was a goddamn tank of tanks. Never played 3, I almost rented it once but at the time I was a very focused kid who had a very focused desire... that was Dynasty Warriors 2. Lmao, I don't even know why. 4 is the one I probably played most tho. I wouldn't mind a 4 remake with awesome graphics simply because there were more battles. Still. DW2 speaks to me... probably because of that vibrant coloring for uniforms. BRIGHT BLUE. BRIGHT RED. BRIGHT GREEN. God I love it. *goes to play DW2, yes I do have it laying around here*

Hm... What else needs to be said here. Ah, yes...

WHO ELSE SEEKS DEATH?!

Underrated and Overrated Video Games

I just want a remake of Dynasty Warriors 2 with strong graphics. I don't want the DW7 crazy musou effects and shit where Lu Bu basically is doing a fucking kamehameha.

I've got a lot of nostalgia for DW2, and I can replay that at any time and be perfectly happy mashing buttons mindlessly. Also, that Lu Bu is a MOTHERFUCKER.

+200

*gets Lu Bu to an inch of life, knocks him on his ass*

*FULL LIFE*

I'm just surprised that I SUBSCRIBED to this thing and nobody has managed to make me regret it yet. Guess I gotta wait for all the others to wake up because they have, like, reasonable sleep patterns. Fucking losers.
