Anybody willing to recommend some girl streamers they watch?
I don't watch many, but I regularly watch PeachSaliva. She plays whatever. I adore her cat Elmo and his quest to overtake her streams lol

Most girl streamers I've found that aren't titty streams are usually doing something I find boring like watching them hatch 1000 pokemon eggs or something :P

Thanks for the cardigan recommendations and commiserations. I wish it were like sweaters, where sometimes I can buy men's stuff. I just don't like men's cardigans...

I wish I could say Zero Escape is my favorite, but the third game was terrible... I was so disappointed in it. 999 is my favorite DS game, though.

If people like Ace Attorney, know that although Danganronpa is sort of similar it's also a lot more anime. Both in good and bad ways. I find AA harder. Danganronpa will have a few points during the trials that stump me every game, but sometimes AA, especially in the older games, is just totally inscrutable.

I avoided any mention of Danganronpa v3 because I was wary of spoilers, and I'm glad I did. I didn't know so many people disliked it, and it's now my favorite game in the series. It might've been anyway (because I have some specific things I love, and it did a bunch of them), but sometimes reading other people's negative impressions preps me to notice the bad things if that makes sense.

Story of my life right there. :U

Most of my friends I know in person who are gamers are guys, although I'm one of the only ones in my group that follows gaming news religiously lol. There's a cool group here that follows gamging so you've come to the right place. What system do you primarily play on?

+1 for Peach. I found her through the SBFP channel but I've grown to love her standalone streams. Did she ever upload them to youtube? There's a lot of her Bloodborne/Souls runs I missed. :<

PC. I also play tons of old console games with emulators. And I have a PS4 as well, but I only play the exclusives on it.

Everyone pointing fingers at somebody else hoping she will make an OT for womens fashion.

sabrina I love the banners you made for the makeup thread. Would you be willing to do some for here?

But male members don't get warned for posting here. Like, we have Beef and Owl and Studge and they're fine. They get warned for SHITposting here. XD There's a whole forum to do that in you see.

Also we had an argument about FF6's validity as a game but that seems to have fizzled out. What's your favorite RPG series? (Do you even play that genre lol)

Sure. I don't have any ideas at the moment but if you point me in a direction or give me some time to think about it then I'd love to.
Using Laiza's logo that is now in the OP, and sticking with that color scheme, with crowns and other royalty inspired stuff and maybe sparkles. And someone has to host it.

Lighting the signal...

Men are objectified too anyway. This is just recreational outrage.

*sigh* that thread is so disappointing. I'm honestly getting sick of discussing gender issues on this site. Too many double standards, and dudes will defend their waifu designs to the death. A lot of them simply don't see this as a problem and make false equivalencies to prove their point. I don't really see how limiting women to a specific design quota is ever a good thing. I do get that it's Persona, but it's still limiting (and stupid) nonetheless.

Yeah, ST makes a lot of mistakes that I'm sure get chalked up to setting/time/homage. I have a lot of complicated feelings about the series overall. I like it... but mostly just due to the charm of all the younger actors. The minute I dig deep into anything, it starts to fall apart.

Yeah, pretty much feel the same way. I enjoy it, but then I think about stuff like this and get bummed. :(

I think I'm more traumatised by that thong than any of the pillow-boobs. Mostly because I keep imagining the discomfort. Ow.

Though I suppose I appreciate it when anime puts its fanservice that up-front so I can just avoid it, rather than ambushing me with it six episodes in.
Exactly.

Nice. I'm a bit more of the opposite ( Ps4/Switch > PC ) but every now and then I'll play Overwatch on PC or a Steam game here or there. Been really thinking of taking a dive and jumping back into WoW though despite my better judgement... >.>

If you're talking about modern day WoW... better listen to your judgment :D
If it's an older version of WoW on a private server... go for it! Been playing WotLK (my fav expansion) on and off, past few years.

I didn't know you could do that private server thing! Wow. I went back and played WoW for a bit before the last expansion just so I could play something with my partner. That was fun, but god, the chat and the people... it's such a cesspit.

I just started playing WoW again following the expansion announcement! I was really trying to cut down on MMOs and focus on the rest of my gaming backlog... it was going so well... now, between that and the new Diablo 3 season and my SO wanting to play Heroes of the Storm, Blizzard owns my soul again. But I am having fun with it, despite my own better judgement. Though I'm really just levelling characters I'll want to have ready for BfA. I might end up wandering off again when it actually comes to endgame.

I knew it was coming but I still wasn't prepared.

My chocobo is my best friend and I just can't use any other mount, as much as I love some of them (especially Midgardsormr).

(Also dressing up chocobo is the best)
unicorn mount was my bff for a long time but it doesn't fly womp

at least I have purple bird to be my friend now- alternate between purple pony and purple bird!

Does anyone have a recommendation for somewhere I can get good winter cardigans? I want thick, warm cardigans that cut off at the hip line. When I look it always feels like a choice between thick cardigans that are mid-thigh length (and I'm short, so it's longer on me...) or flimsy things that should not be sold during the winter dammit!!

Ok, I know people are probably going to say this is an old lady brand, but I really like the Lands End Supima Cardigans. They are good quality, wash and wear well, and I think they are thick enough. They aren't flimsy like the cheap crap you get at H&M/Kohl's, etc. When I want them longer I just buy the same size in "Tall". I linked the current solid colors but they have lots of patterns, and always a bunch in clearance. And that brand is always running coupons or deals so I don't ever pay anywhere near full price for them.

I have a few cardigans from Lands End that are ten years old now that are still nice enough to wear to the office, so they hold up.

If I had, say, the minority opinion that DR1 is better than DR2, is DR3 worth buying?

(But DR2 had a top-notch Ghost in the Shell/Appleseed reference, which was appreciated.)

If you think I'm going to make fun of you for finding a good cardigan, you're mistaken! I literally just want some plain cardigans, so I'll check these out. Thanks!

Just finished watching Stranger Things 2 and this article (spoilers obviously) really got into something that I had hoped this season would fix: Stranger Things 2 keeps its "strong female characters" apart from one another, like every Hollywood genre property.

Thoughts?

I think this is very fair. This actually helps clarify some of my annoyance with this season (which I overall loved & thought was better than season 1), which was that every single female character is in a relationship. Usually I'm such a sap that I wouldn't be bothered by that, but I found myself really noticing.

And I think having all the women isolated from each other within their own little group of male characters made it feel like they were being viewed as romantic prospects rather than as women who happen to have romance in their lives. Max was the worst for this imo. She has her own separate problems going on, but the romance (I feel weird calling it 'romance' when it's a cute preteen crush, but yeah) involving her is almost completely from the boys' perspective. At some point she's just kind of in to it? And it was cute, but I had a definite feeling of "this is a male perspective".

Edit: And now that I'm thinking about it more, they're all in the middle of love triangles too... So there's focus on which guy will "win." Eeugh... Or in ElevenxMikexMax's case of course you've got tension between the only two girls in the group.

Stranger Things improved on a lot of its criticisms from season 1, though, and I'll applaud them for that. Hopefully they keep listening and do even better next season!

This article actually reminds me of a scene in Battlestar Galactica that seemed off to me when I was watching it. It was a really tense scene involving, like, politics or military strategy (I can't remember) and there were three female characters facing off. No men present. And I realized it seemed "off" to me, because I'm not sure I'd ever seen that before on TV or in a movie. Love that show.

If I had, say, the minority opinion that DR1 is better than DR2, is DR3 worth buying?

It depends. What did you like more about DR1? Did you not like DR2? I saw a few people who preferred DR1 who loved DRv3, but I'm not sure it meant anything bigger.

Yes. V3 even has more weird anime references. And a few Trump ones, which are amazing because he sucks.

DR3 was messy and UDG had some of the most offensive shit I've ever seen in a game. But yeah, v3 brought it all back around. It's good again!

I didn't end up getting exactly what you suggested, but I bought three sweaters from the clearance section.

These links are dangerous. I should cut up my credit cards haha.
