Gamefaqs - An old gaming website that still exists somehow

Maybe it's just because I got banned pre-gamergate, but I never saw LL as terribly political beyond being vaguely libertarian-leaning. That it went full on universal reality-denial with the trans shit still fucks me up.

What about Kotaku's Jason Schreier (he went by Prism and then Fox1370 iirc)?
he's not an active user not sure about ban status or anything but I was just reading today on there the thread where someone shared his article about how the suicide squad game failed. I remember him posting still a few years ago but I haven't seen him actually on the boards in a long time, I think he just left. and dude it's entirely political slop now. literally every post has people complaining about anyone they think is a right winger. it's a shame to see. it's just devolved into the same thing every other website has which is leftist echo chamber bullshit and constantly holding up the glory of trans people. Lynx left the boards for good over him basically saying he doesn't like how he's supposed to just support trans shit blindly like all the americans do because he's from macedonia and it's not as widely accepted there and he shouldn't have to have american values shoved up his ass. which was a rare show of balls from a complete idiot but he was right and they banned him for basically saying trans activists are annoying.

Wooow.

There was such good, funny shit on LL back in the day. It's so sad to see it was all sacrificed on the altar of girlcock-uber-alles.

Lynx the Dark's autisticly detailed habit of masturbating to pictures of happy families (and that time he showed his WIP "Dolly Parton-inspired RPG" and all the art had subliminal dicks in it he swore were unintentional; and his ongoing bit about working at a place that skins stray cats to make mittens for the poor), chuckyhacks being chuckyhacks, cb_32 referring to being held back a grade as taking a "victory lap", that guy (I think from Louisiana) who's mom would always burst in on him out of nowhere shouting "DUSSIN', IS YOU MASSABATIN' AGIN?" (I think he also got into body building and had a meltdown about people suggesting he was working out his glutes to better squeeze gay dicks).

There was real character there, and tranny politics destroyed it. I understand why Josh is all blackpilled lately. I haven't thought about this stuff in years, but there's nowhere on the internet like old LL. Even here, people are too (probably rightly!) scared of trannies trying to ruin our lives to do anything but the most incidental or furtive activities. There are no KF-affiliated gaming clans, no cool silly projects like the LUE-F.O.,

I don't know how to turn it around. I just want to be a regular person - who just so happens to believe that a man cannot be a woman just because he thinks he feels like one - and that one fact has led to a great deal of both IRL and digital isolation.

Wait, wait, wait, so Schreier was Fox1370 and not Fox1337, the *rubs noses* furfag guy? I could've sworn there was some association between Fox1337 and Schreier and wondered why it never became more public that he was a furry, but it was so long ago I couldn't remember exactly all the details.

Yeah, Schreier originally went by Prism, where he said what, at the time, was some pretty horrendous things about Palestinian kids but today is kinda standard Jewish-American talking-points. He eventually changed it to Fox1370 I think, I'm not 100% on the specific number, but I remember that it was "Fox[some number that is similar to but is not 1337]". He definitely wasn't the *rubs nose* guy, just a similar name.

Gotcha. It suddenly all makes so much more sense why I had conflated those for the last 10+ years.

the sad part is, there will never be a websight like that again really. it's what happens when you give teenagers unrestricted access to the internet, from a time where shit was just different online. what do they do? they start sharing porn and pirated movies and games and stuff, and are too stupid to not use any discretion privacy wise, and over share everything, call each other niggers and faggots, spam dick pictures everywhere. it was almost like a weird social experiment. I'm just sad all the legendary topics are gone forever. I was like 10 when I started using it. it was probably the funniest environment to grow up in online.

there was such a hilarious collection of fucking weirdos. and so much shit that is so funny but I could never explain it properly to someone, and now all that shit is gone so I can't even pull it up and be like look at this retarded thing from 2010 on what was probably the worst kept top secret website in history populated entirely by idiots who would literally tell you every excruciating detail you didn't ask for about them jerking off or something. even down to little stuff like the couple of dudes who larped as being black but weren't at all. shit like that cracks me up to this day. the one good thing from the last few years is when the previous site shut down in the goodbye topic before anyone knew there would be a replacement site, the final comment in the final topic was some guy who just posted 'i'm gay'. it was dead before that anyway but with that guys final cry of he's gay and his dad fucks him, it was over.

I said a lot of amazingly retarded and embarrassing stuff and wasn't especially cautious about maintaining anonymity, so there's a little relief knowing it's all gone forever.
 
Could just be because of my age and nostalgia, but I'm a ZSNES fan because it allowed translation patches and the like. The only game it ever seemed to have a problem with was Star Ocean 1.

SMW Central claims ZSNES has security flaws.

Anyone remember VeghEsther?


A very autistic, probably disabled but definitely has OCD gamer who likes to brute force his way through JRPGs. So instead of completing a JRPG normally in 20 hours like a normal person would, he probably gets to level 50 before the first boss so that he can power his way through the rest of the game in 30 hours. Many accuse him of being a troll but that's just cope. He's not a troll, just very autistic. But his posts and replies look very AI generated, even though AI is only a recent invention.

He does other shit like gets Squall's best weapon in disc 1 in Final Fantasy 8, uses Grand Dragons in Final Fantasy 9 to overlevel in the early part of the game and his usual Final Fantasy 7 boss advice is "use Knights of the Round" (an overpowered late game summon)

I don't have a link but he is still on YouTube on random old JRPG game in the comments section, still giving worthless JRPG game advice. I wonder how old he is now.

lol, I searched "Star Ocean Bloody Armor" on YouTube and I found his account on the related videos.

This guy is obsessed, he is on most of the bloody armor related videos. It's like bloody armor is his identity the same way people make being fat or being mentally ill their identity. I haven't checked but he's probably on the comments section of the FF7 Knights of the Round and FF8 Lionheart videos too.

He is a literal broken record. The small sample of months old posts you see above are exactly the same messages he posted on GameFaqs 15 years ago.

It will never not make me smile to know that every guy I called a faggot for playing as women in video games on Gamefaqs (and they would always claim that it was cause they liked looking at female asses) ended up becoming a troon.
One of my friends back in my old WoW days did the same thing with all of his characters and he also used the same exact excuse that "looking at a girl's ass was better than looking at a guy's" and he was the only dude in my guild who did that so of course we always teased him for it, and to this day I sometimes wonder if he trooned out by now.

I also had a different friend who always played girl characters in every game he played and he later trooned out, but that was totally expected of him since he always acted like a massive faggot, just like every AGP does.

That's almost creepy for some reason, but interesting.

I usually decide to play as a girl in video games if their design is better or I prefer their playstyle/story, or even just as a way to shake up a second playthrough of a game.

That's a little different than always picking the female option by default, but I do see merit in choosing a female character sometimes.
 
I don't know. I never had a problem emulating SNES games by 2001/2002. I remember at the time people saying that it couldn't emulate transparent water effects but I never had a problem in my Mega Man X games.

The only GBA game that I ever hit an anti piracy measure with was some Sonic game, and I remember Gamefaqs getting all pissed about it when I mentioned it on their forum back then too lol.

Edit: Now I'm wondering if I have some sort of love from God since apparently I had a shitty e-machine that could emulate any SNES and GBA game I threw at it in the same way I now seemingly have a mid-range PC that runs Cyberpunk and Starfield on high without any major issues while everyone I know with 1000+ computers allegedly can't run them worth a shit.
I was always a Snes9x Chad, and I have heard that there were translated ROMs that had code for ZSNES (the pleb's emulator) that it wouldn't work and you'd need Snes9x instead.

20+ years ago it was hard to run SNES on any given PC. However recently some turbo autists recommended bsnes (lol) and that shit lags really hard for some games. Turns out it was built to emulate the original hardware bit for bit
In 2004, with the exception of Super FX games you could run almost every major SNES game flawlessly or near-flawlessly on anything made from 1999 on with Snes9x. I say "major SNES game" because SNES 9x and ZSNES used hacks to make some games like Super Mario RPG run properly.

Vegh is the type of person I kindve expected to have a thread here. He was a turbo autist but he was completely harmless. A rather wholesome lolcow who always gave me a solid laugh. I always hated that they banned him, he was entertaining.

Why is the reply on your post white instead of a clickable green.

Vegh is an immense gameplay autist who lacks self-awareness but it ends there. He's very annoying and very autistic but he never spergs on anyone or talks about anything non-game related or political. He's not much of a lolcow but his autism might unintentionally cause drama (hence the wiki link).
