One of my favorite things about the best friends is that they're all huge babies when it comes to horror games
Just like me
Horror games don't seem to affect Matt very much. He'll scream at jump scares, but doesn't really become scared
Liam's the biggest baby of the group, running away from innocuous doors and breaking objects in terror.
Pat's gets almost as scared as Liam, but it doesn't really affect his play. He just sounds like he might start crying.
Yeah, because Pat's survival-strategery is to freeze or play dead. Liam's is to jump the gun harder.

I thought the Kenny hate running wild was dumb... up until you meet a certain character in Episode 5 and he does the most irrational sadistic bullshit to him. There's a point where it renders Pat speechless, it's so bad.

Thinking that Arvo is harmless and innocent is pretty oblivious, though.

I think one leads to the other
like you point to him shooting Clem and say "see, he was evil all along!" but if Kenny hadn't been mercilessly beating the shit outta him for days you might have been able to talk to him and explain what happened with his sister.
Obviously he's not harmless, and by all means keep him restrained, but the beatings were just inhuman.

Yeah, I doubt antagonising him made things any better since it didn't even break his triggerfinger, but he seemed pretty set on causing trouble before that, too.

Finished off episode 3 of TWD S2.
Good so far but it's really lacking the emotional dynamic S1 had with Lee and Clem.
Clem being a supporting cast member/your surrogate daughter is what made Lee's decisions so powerful, here Clem feels like she's just walking from one situation to the next and I'm not really feeling particularly torn or driven by anything or anyone.
They do the best job they can with making an eleven year old the main character but Clem just can't carry the story like someone like Lee could. It feels like they kind of missed what made Clem work so well and it wasn't that she was a cool or interesting character, it was that she was your family.

Yeah, the way people generally talk to Clem in season two seems kind of off sometimes.
I know she's tough but with the way they go on about their life stories and complex pleas for assistance, you would think she was a battle hardened zombie apocalypse Rambo with a minigun/guidance counselor. instead of an eleven year old.
"Clem, we're thinking of making some adjustments to the base, adding a second floor to the fort and new irrigation system, we need your input."
I've generally enjoyed everything the zaibatsu have put out on their channel, but the Walking Dead S2 LP is a real black mark - for me, anyway. It was genuinely unpleasant to watch/listen to.
After that, though, was Prison Break, so ... Maybe Pat's suffering should be accepted as penance.

PT is wonderfully disturbing. Gives me hope that the series is finally ready to evolve move into some sort of new direction.
Have they said whether the final product will be first person aswell? After this, I'm going to be kind of bummed if its just another traditional third person Silent Hill.
Please just make a PC port swery, don't make me buy an entire xbox one solely for your stupid game
I'm in the same dilemma. There is literally nothing else now or on the horizon that I would need an Xbox One for, but if I have to buy one just for this game, I don't know how long I can restrain myself from doing so.

Funny (those clem intro/ending pics are killing me) but do they actually shut up about Kenny at some point or is it just going to get worse?
The Ju-on shitstorm solo video is a great show of Matt's baby status. He'll get scared, but screaming pretty quickly turns into laughing.

they do not stop, and it gets worse (if you like kenny)

I was abit worried about making Clem the protag but she's doing a bang up job of being super badass.
Out of the entire zaibatsu I think Pat's incoherent noises are the best incoherent noises

Plenty of those in the Shitstorm Finale this year.
Let's also not forget his latest three catchphrases, "Know what I mean?", "Drop your shield", and "Perfect". Someone needs to put that on a shirt.

Woof.

Indeed.
Any game can make your attack flash. Golden Sun is where I go if I want my critical hits to summon a death god to rip out a monster's beating heart.

Although that's not really a crit. The ones in Fire Emblem actually feel pretty good, though.
you're not wrong

"..I like ponies?"
I've started using this one in my day-to-day speech. Not on purpose, mind you. I just hear it so often that my brain accepts it as a thing people say.

Am yet to see if "see what I mean becomes part of my regular vocabulary"
e: Oh god I didn't even notice D4 is up. I just made some very unmanly noises.
Now, do I watch every part as it comes out, or do I save it up?
