Okay I actually just read the Pokemon leaked stories rather than just hearsay about them, I think they're actually pretty neat. Honestly it was more interesting than shocking, the people going crazy about it really oversold the horniness. It's more like somewhat serious attempts at Pokemon folk tales or something. And I think the more interesting thing is all the previously unseen art and random development tools being found.
But still, sex with Rapidash
@beardalaxy I don't even think all of it is super farfetched for the Pokemon world, if you think about it like a dork, it kind of all fits in with the setting. I think it is a bit different than employees blowing off steam, it looks like person who wrote all these was really super artistically into their duty of crafting the setting. Also since a lot of the sex stuff looks like it was probably written around Gen 2 and 3, definitely was an exploratory phase for where the series was going. I can totally envision a timeline, especially with Colosseum and XD (even though they were different devs IIRC), where Pokemon was a bit edgier. I'm kind of more surprised that these fanfic-tier documents were still in existence at all since they looked like so much more of an afterthought, you'd think they would've just been left on a super old workstation in the documents folder rather than on the modern computer of the GF employee that was phished.
@beardalaxy I realized I spent all my high school and 20's acting overly "mature" and am making up for lost time ;_;
@LukeAlmighty Oh, well what is it?
@LukeAlmighty Yeah, imagine competing with slot machines against three other people and they stop your slot machine and kick your dick whenever they win $1
They didn't have Amorphis/Dark Tranquility combo tour shirts left because the show I went to was one of the last on the tour
It was a fun show though...!
@beardalaxy @tomie Yeah I thought this was already a settled thing, like wasn't there a Mario ripoff that Nintendo sued for and the courts said you can't copyright gameplay mechanics, therefore anyone can make a platformer? I guess the patent is just another level deeper and Nintendo is feeling like it's time to try again...
@beardalaxy I've been playing Minecraft the past few days and this been infecting my brain
@LukeAlmighty Well it does look very nice but cozy armchairs can't be beat
@xianc78 Been thinking about that too, a lot of people I know my age are now just settled in to doing nothing and sitting in front of the computer and getting high. They seem like they're really in a terrible place but that's what they want to do. And for some reason the suggestion to something fun outside of their home is abhorrent to them and elicits a bitter response. Like "I don't want to meet anyone, everyone's a scumbag, everyone sucks" whatever. And money definitely isn't an issue for them. When these people hit middle age it will hit them hard, because they'll realize they spent 20 adult years of freedom not doing anything interesting. And it sucks, lately I feel like I have to cut them out of my life or else I'll be sucked into that too.
