Internet Historian Appreciation Thread - The best thing to come out of Austrailia since Mad Max (The original, obviously)

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
In fact, & this is a rumor so take it with a bit of salt, but I heard that the game's 3D models that you can find online were ripped from a pirated version cause no one wanted to buy the game.
I have 0 trouble believing that tbh. If you check the game's "Sales" section on wikipedia this is literally the entire section:
1717258381809.png
The 15th best selling retail game in its first week in japan with 4.5k copies.

This is such a hillariously far reach to try and make it look good its legitimately borderline parodic, honestly just don't include a sales section at this point, its less embarassing than this.
 
This is beyond retarded. Legit retard level writing. Is there any adult who doesn't know stolen evidence don't count towards anything and can sink the entire case?

Of course whitey did it and the big secret was that.... people working in a dangerous field with a lot of snap decisions died. It's not even on the level of national news, and there is no reason to the megacorp to even cover it up. It's people who never have responsibility lashing out on imaginary case of people who do need to.

The entire explosion the plot is based around apperantly didn't do shit and you can literally walk to the grave site on foot. Why didn't Alex just lead people to the rock pile?

Alex's father died in the blast because we need the plot to connect to the heroine for some reason...?

The final confrontation basically had the heroine win because she really wanted to. It's like it tries to be the worse aspects of female writing.

The town is also doomed without the corpo providing jobs like 99% of those worker towns, but apperantly traffic from feral urbanites will provide new income revenues.

At least the music from Trails is really good.
I’m pretty sure most American mines from the 60’s through now have pretty damn good insurance policies after those coal miners in West Virginia got bombed. There’s no point in covering it up, it’s kind of an accepted risk. They likely already had life insurance policies for the guys who died because the US has on the books laws about this shit. Whoever was in charge, Jed, would probably have faced like three years in prison unless it was malicious.

Unless everyone hired was off the books then it’s retarded further because then you could probably just abandon the site while you have the rights and just cause a cave in of the shaft rather than causing landslides to close it off.

Alex is just retarded. The 4th quarter empathy absorption is retarded unless she’s gonna be filled with that emotion. She was like X-Men Rogue where she couldn’t get close in fear of being influenced by them, but now she can just eat the emotion forever? Why didn’t she just make the retarded mutt fearless then? She could do that for the cop, but not the mutt child?

They had two concepts of her powers that conflict. If she can turn someone’s off or she’s forced to feel them why the fuck wouldn’t she just defensively make people robots? Why not just be someone who makes people only able to be able to fear or love you?
 
Also, I don't know dick about the game, but I expect Jed to be the villain (cause he's a white hero and we can't have those) and the LARP was supposed to be foreshadowing.
Well look at how much of a clever cookie I am!

Anywho, you lot have already covered it for the most part. Why the hell do you cover up some dude that fucked up in a mine instead of using your insurance and chuking him under the bus? How did nobody notice 7 people vanishing, specially when they likely did normal life in town, so even if Chen was a walking failure that abandoned his little happas, the people in town would know that he works in the mine and I don't expect all the other miners to be losers without any life or family connections. And Jesus fucking Christ the "noooo, my papa was one of the dead! now it affects ME directly!" twist if it can even be called that comes so out of left field and is so bloody irrelevant it's not even funny.

As for the emotion powers, though I find it funny it turned the nigger into a vegetable and that the cop seems like he'll have an early grave since he seems way too fearless for his own good, didn't amount to much outside of that.

And though I "get" what the final scene wants to do, that it lacks the BALLS to have everything go south and have Alex end up in jail for data theft and being a stupid hipster if you fail to get enough people to like her (yes, I know, tall order) ruins it. If you at least needed to cover a minimal threshold of "social links" to not end up in the slammer would have actually added some replay value of sorts, 3 simple endings, go to jail and rot like the stupid bitch you are, you barely get enough people believing you to oust everything but you are effectively still exiled from town and super happy cotton candy where they all fucking love you, lynch Jed and the corpo lady and open 5 more record stores in town.

Game would improve a lot with that Duckie DLC though.

In every playthrough I see of the game I'm left wondering, did the mutt's mom commit suicide or not? It seemed like they were setting up a suicide (what with the ominous lake speech) that never happened, or at least it didn't happen in either null's or IH's playthrough.

I feel like it would have been a good way to show alex that her actions have consequences.
 
I'm preying to every God I know of that now that this shit pile of a game is done we'll get that MGS2 Story Mode. Or, for extra lulz, just skipping to Snake Eater.
 
He should just start joking about it and refer to himself as a plagiarist a couple times. Nobody with a functioning brain gives a shit about this """""controversy""""" and it'd drive the faggots who do care up the wall.
He's taking a piss about it here and there.

> *the man kisses another man*
> "he went on to commit many, many more crimes."


On an ad read... how does he keep getting away with it?

The sponsors must know people actually keep watching his ads instead of skipping them, so they're fine with it. Its better advertising than anything officially made.

He has always been taking a piss about these things even before the HBG non-troversy when the Youtube Drama subreddit was bitching about him.

Honestly, there's a great troll opportunity out of this, where he should invite HBomberGuy to his show & do a topic on Plagiarism. Just imagine the opening:
Internet Historian said:
"PLAGIARISM! What IS plagiarism??

Is reading an article out loud on the internet plagiarism?

What if, I animate it with pictures "borrowed" from Google Images?

*police sirens*

What! No! No officer, I didn't steal any pictures!

*squints close into the camera*

I copyright infringed them.

*running from stock art police*

Oh no it's the playgee po-po, save me Nordman!!!"
The only issue is that this will give that faggot HBG some exposure, that he doesn't deserve.
 
I'm happy people share my opinion why the Everest is overrated.
Do niggers like Berserk?
Is there an anime nigger don't like? They usually have the normie taste in shows. The kill count of Naruto vs. Bleach is probably in the thousands.
That h3lp M3 joke sent my sides into orbit.
They basically made every spooky internet story trope over the span of five minutes.
