Jerry: "A sabre is a sword, George."
G: "You gotta use the right nomenclature, Jerry!"
Kramer: "He's right, you know. Knew a guy who thought he was talking about a regular sword, turned out to be a zweihander. Lopped his hand *schhkt* clean off!"
G: "See!"
J: "Did that really happen?"
K: "Yeah!"

Seen plenty of fursonas with swords but none with swords in this pose.

just because white people couldn't do it doesn't mean it was aliens

I know of that I have spent days giggling about my own toot on awoo what am i meant to be able to unsee this note

GUNZ was kinda interesting to play even after release though because at least if you purchased something it was permanent iirc. The wall running and stuff was great fun and they never patched the sword-flying thing, which was so much fun to abuse to just fly around the map - didn't even require a hack. ^^ You could just do it right on the offset as soon as you got even the basic katana.

I've probably mentioned that back in the day I got heavily into the betas of both GUNZ online and S4 League.

Both of which when they came out were fundamentally awful Pay2Win games filled with hackers where if you couldn't or wouldn't purchase in game currency for items you were basically never winning any games ever.

S4 League was especially galling because there were no permanent items ever, even ones you purchased, unless you paid exorbitant amounts.

Amazing visual style tho.

hi backpain, you coming back for christmas? aight coo.
Time to zap the back I guess

jftr

you know that "call your cat a nandos because they're full of purry purry sauce" toot I did?

i do that

i do that now i call my kitties "nandos" sometimes.
Especially Kami.

oh dang my back feels great now after all the usage of the TENS machine, fuck.

@Nine imo, there's a tradeoff in compactness and repairability.

I'm def. not advocating for companies here but even if we could safely assume that everything was done w/o malice and the intent of making money, we'd still see certain things people complain about today.

Lotsa people want the smallest and most efficient things possible (and BOY do tech nerds get horny over numbers) and at some point, you gotta switch to stuff like soldered components if you wanna shave that last mm off

old tech has a great aesthetic

but wwwwwooooowwwwww new tech is def. superior.

except in terms of repairability I suppose.

Like really, a lot of newer tech is basically "haha fuck you buy a new one if something breaks".

With odler tech at least you could repair it or fix it most of the time, or get a replacement part pretty easily and cheaply. Heck these days with 3d printing tech you'd think you'd be able to MAKE replacement bits, but nope. sealed units and system-on-chip bullshit.
