I have a 144 MHZ monitor. My work computer has to be 60 HZ at best. Yet both seem to show Minecraft about the same, beyond the choppiness from the weaker computer. Old school titles are especially notable due to FPS caps, I think Quake is limited to 30 FPS. So that is one change I didn't see much of a difference for, I gained more from the increase in resolution and having a better color output. See, this is the thing about me constantly upgrading my stuff, I can tell first hand what improvements there are.

I am a complicated individual who can be best explained as being asexual. I can look at a naked girl and feel one of two reactions. Either I will feel sickened because I think about all the biological functions and fluids, or I just will see it as I would anything else. You could say I am a big proponent for the lack of censorship, so I rather have a bit of adult content included if it can improve the gameplay, but it isn't sexual excitement. As contradictory as it may sound, I have tried various adult games out of curiosity. Due to the content, it was a sort of escape from my OCD, since they weren't seen as serious alongside true titles. So yes, I have touched adult content, but it is pretty much as close to "watching porn for the story" as you get. Which I have tried, only to find it boring as they never seem to wrap up plotlines after the sex (which I ironically have to fast-forward through as it gets too repetitive and lacking in developments). Another useful instance I have found, rape can be a useful trope as some form of the unpredictable, a sort of punishment that one can recover from unlike death while still holding its own form of consequences. The linear build up of a hero, where they get too powerful, can result in unbalancing. Through the use of destruction and weakening, capture and other elements, you in turn get a sliding scale closer to reality.

If the above doesn't prove I am insane, nothing does. While it is stigmatized due to its implications, I see it as I would gore or any other element. In the right circumstances, it can prove useful for game balance (note, most of these games are really terrible since they are intended to be played on one hand, but there have been exceptions such as painful roguelikes), since there is little else I can think of to fit that same role. So if I watched porn, it would be like watching movies to me. But I don't really like watching movies, so therefore I don't find much purpose to porn.

With that explanation, you pretty much could get more out of porn than I could. To me, it is just another form of media, one that can have quality or lack it, but is not really something that arouses me. And yes, I have thought those thoughts as well. If a cuckhold is someone rather letting someone else have sex over themselves, isn't that pretty much what a voyeur who watches porn is? You don't know these people, nor will you ever get a chance with them, so it seems strange to obsess over them any more than any other form of media.

That is probably the best way of describing what I like. I like rarity, finding that hard to acquire item and attempting to work for it. I enjoy the hunt. Items hidden in predesignated locations aren't a hunt due to them lacking replay value, resulting in the game essentially killing a bit of it and lacking that hunt factor. This is why Minecraft seems to work the best here, total randomization and a handful of rare things to hunt for. I need to look more into mods, find one that gives me some harder stuff to hunt for without being the complete impossible.

Remember, Les Miserables had plenty of symbolism about bread! One thing I always failed to understand was how there had to be symbolism in every object in classic novels. It always felt like stretching, like we were trying to find deeper meaning. Sometimes a piece of bread is a piece of bread, it isn't a symbolism for poverty and isolation. We could do the same for porn, you know. "That man's ejaculation represents the rejection of life, since he shot it on the nice lady instead of having it in her, thus in turn killing lives that had the potential to exist. This is similar in concept to God's near rejection of us until Jesus showed him the light. Perhaps the nice lady will give birth to our savior, or Jesus will knock up the nice lady, as a way of gifting her the life she was denied.". Never let people get freedom to write essays on anything, since porn is always a promising untapped potential that offers more originality than our repetitive essays on classical works. Yes, I have just compared The Great Gatsby to The Big Breasted Women From Jupiter in the midst of my insane ramblings. Aren't you happy you brought up porn?

And with porn on the mind, that sentence about sausages does not sound any better.

Oh, that pretty much sums up a lot of my experiences. It is a lot of pain, a lot of endurance. But, I always get the memories, and get the ability to look back with more favor than I know I would have if I was still touching it. I can remember the amusing experiences from Daggerfall, even knowing how hellish that game could be. I would be glad to try to do something. As for lag, I have updated my computer, including having more cores in my computer now. It should ideally be a lot more powerful than it was.

Precisely the plan, I would rather tackle one and actually devote time to it, ideally one we had started and stopped before. As for choices... hmm... you are my audience remember, so your opinion matters as well. I think I would like to try tackling X-Wing again, it would be nice to figure out that control you tried explaining that I couldn't find. I swear I hit every key, so we can have the fun of trying once more.

Mixer seems like the way to go, I don't think any new services have come along to really compete, and the lag is indeed as minimal as possible. The first stream we could test some things out, the increased technology means I can probably get a bit more quality to the stream than I did before, plus I have fixed up some settings from those days.

Also, don't forget about the Quake server, it would be nice to do that as well eventually :P
