  • He’s a fantastic video game streamer. Very charismatic, genuine, and funny. I think one of the things that makes him special is he’ll do ridiculous things for a joke. If he thinks of a funny idea on the fly, sometimes he’ll basically stop playing whatever game he was supposed to be streaming, and just do something else stupid instead.

    For example, one time he performed a “magic trick” by unplugging his modem and then plugging it back in, using the time in between when the stream was frozen to run out of the room, making it look like he “disappeared”. He would do insane, hilarious stuff like that regularly, it wasn’t like he had special streams where he did things like that, he did them all the time.

    Of course he ALSO did special streams where he went even further, such as the “doll house” stream where he had a whole set made up like a fake house and basically became a Sims character with needs bars and everything. He’s a really special guy, and you could spend all day listing all of his amazing feats. He perfectly walks the line between being actually stupid in a funny way, and playing it up as a character, it’s convincing enough that it all just becomes “Jerma”, but he is also a genuinely good guy.


  • I’m glad that you enjoyed this game! Some of your reactions to the characters’ fates took me back to when I played the series on Vita haha. It was also nice to see you mention the extra stuff like Distrust.

    I will warn you now, if you are playing the trilogy through on the Switch’s Decadence Collection… V3 is poorly optimized during certain class trial sections and I actually struggled to complete some of the mini games because of how laggy it was (when it ran perfectly on the Vita). It’s possible they patched it since I played it after the first or second patch, but keep it in mind.

    It is still doable, but it’s a bit of a shame because I love this series. I hope you enjoy Goodbye Despair and V3 provided you complete them as well!


  • Persona 3/4/5 (not all tracks are instrumentals, but most of them are and they are straight bangers)

    Katana Zero Danganronpa 1, 2, V3 Silent Hill 1, 2, 3 (all I can vouch for, but I hear the later games still have banging soundtracks) Crosscode Kingdom Hearts 1/2 Nier Automata Minecraft Donkey Kong Country 1/2 VA-11 HALL-A Catherine Full Body Deadbolt Risk of Rain 1/2

    Some of these you’d have to sift through, like Silent Hill is one part industrial creepy noise, and one part absolutely incredible hip hop and rock



  • I respect that you posted the original context. It’s a sad fact that there are people who don’t understand others, and react with hatred or skepticism.

    Do your best to be patient and forgiving, being snarky or outwardly rude does damage to their opinion of you and the topics you want them to be educated on. They will not want to learn or be accepting if you give the venom back.

    And that may not even work either, but if you care you have to try, and don’t sink to someone’s level.





  • Some single player games I’ve replayed often that aren’t roguelikes would be…

    Dishonored Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1 and 2 Prey 2017 Hitman, but specifically the World of Assassination games Bethesda RPGs Grand Theft Auto/Rockstar, specifically for me 5 or Red Dead Redemption Dark Souls (I replay it on offline mode predominantly anyway) Dying Light Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor/War Halo MCC campaigns Mount & Blade series Katana ZERO Vanquish/other platinum games



  • It’s definitively manipulative, but people on the internet like to take something like that and then sprint to the conclusion that the person exhibiting the behavior is entirely knowledgeable about what they’re doing and is nefariously doing it on purpose in order to control the person and keep them locked in a position of weakness.

    A lot of people exhibit behavior like this because they feel scared or upset and don’t know how to healthily express or resolve it, or were taught by unhealthy homelife that the behavior is normal, even if it’s not. I think people in the comments immediately rushing to leave her and anyone like her behind will either find it hard to maintain a relationship, or should count their lucky stars if they’re with someone that is completely healthy and knowledgeable about negative human behaviors and willing (and able) to fix it.
