  TXC2: Hello Cori
 Zaghrog: Damn, now I'm tempted to go buy myself a drink
  TXC2: I'd always trust Cameron over a phone
 Xed_Regulus: I would send you our chilliness if I could
 TheAwkes: Why hasn't the game, at some point, allowed you to send out other folks to gather ingredients automatically?

  TXC2: wow Doc Strange aint seen the start of the Iron man animated show then 
richy9999999: is this game good or do is it socks
justajester: Storm might be very very good - although i havent tested too much. She really unlocks at friendship level 4
richy9999999: ive been looking into buying this game because i like strategy games like xcom but the whole long conversations /relationships part kinda turns me off .
  TXC2: richy9999999  oh that's a big part of the game
richy9999999: thats unfortunate
richy9999999: for me at least
justajester: @richy9999999 it's a good game with an excelllent core game play loop - but the other systems may put you off
 UncannyJimjams: Good timezone to you Cori and chat! How goes vampire hunting today?
  TXC2: hello UncannyJimjams  welcome
justajester: it's not really comparable to X-Com
richy9999999: so what game is it more comparable to @justajester
richy9999999: the sims ?
 LordZarano: The writing is good, from what we've seen so far
  TXC2: I swear the venom suit halves our waist 
 Xed_Regulus: Her hair makes her head look too big for her body
justajester: it's a marvel card puzzle game with 2 or 3 systems tacked on that feed back into the card aspect
richy9999999: ah
Volus_dude: not a drop to drink gang would be proud. facing dracula with buddies 
justajester: but especially the abby exploration is just not done that well
  TXC2: Volus_dude  maybe we'll also just drop a rock on him 
 TheMerricat: Burn down the church with Dracula inside?
  TXC2: it 10000% made you clear the enemies after
 TheMerricat: Oh no! This means we lost T-Pose man!
justajester: the writing does do alot of heavy lifting in the relationship IF you know and like Marvel
justajester: sim*
justajester: but the core part Cory is curently doing is just plain fun
 coachNelly: Good old ‘close to murder’
  TXC2: hello coachNelly  welcome
 LordZarano: I don't even know marvel much, but the writing does a good job of characterising the characters
 dankmemeter: Storm hacker voice: I'm in!
 coachNelly: Just chillin.
 coachNelly: These super heroes seem a lot stronger than these random monsters
  TXC2: well none of them are T-posing like they did yesterday 
 LordZarano: @coachNelly vampyres, with a y
 Angnor33: Does your mother take her skin with her?
  TXC2: Angnor33  Gods we can only hope so
justajester: one great piece of game design they did is that higher difficulty - aside from the challenge - only gives you more currency for cosmetics
 coachNelly: Oh this is the false confidence fight. Got it 🫡
 UncannyJimjams: This mission feels brutal
 TheMerricat: So if you discard one of hte 'tainted' cards do you get bleed still? Or does it only trigger if you play it?
Neddy471: Oh shoot, now I have to go back and grind MS, because she's farther than I am.
justajester: @TheMerricat only play triggers
Neddy471: Don't have Storm yet.  
 pn55:   
 UncannyJimjams: Holy cats that's was wild

 tsp397: Step 1 Say you need to talk?

 kaffeetrinken89: How does one see a halfvampire?
 A_Dub888: #BookClubBuddies
 Bugberry: @kaffeetrinken89 probably less vampy than full ones.
 TheMerricat: I left all my treasure in... ONE PIECE!
  TXC2: the sliver suit is the real true colours for storm
  TXC2: purpler?
 BrowneePoints: So when did Cori decide we're goin full edge? Last I saw we were goin balanced
  TXC2: BrowneePoints  we've been going full dark the whole time
 BrowneePoints: well I am just an idiot then lol
 TheMerricat: We are balanced in the concept that we look ridiculous AND edgy. 
 ShaneLeeAtk: !bus

Hype_Maan: Oh I remember this one
Hype_Maan: Hahaha yea sure
 BusTed: That's some coordination.
 Bugberry: reading is hard
Lysander_salamander: vroom
  TXC2: HULK NO LIKE READING!
Lysander_salamander: cute
 jessieimproved: okay okay I'm game
 jessieimproved: So far I am pretty impressed with the writing on this game.  Seems to be just the right dusting of superhero silly on top of the plot.
  TXC2: !box
  LRRbot: In the box is: a mysterious pizza
 dumbo3k: environmental dog decoration
 dumbo3k: I believe in you!
  TXC2: you do it Cori!
 dumbo3k: woo!
 Bugberry: rare pro book burning
  TXC2: could...could he have done that at any time?
  TXC2:   
  TXC2: "BEHOLD: my fan fic!"
 Hangedman: these rocks definitely did the trick, time to leave and not think about it
 dumbo3k: Reditus? it's all reddit's fault!
Lysander_salamander: neat
 LordZarano: We did it reditus!
 ScrapyardGhostTrain: This is what happens when you fail to apply the Hicks Protocol.
  TXC2: Gods social media was a mistake
 Bugberry: endgame already happened though
 TehAmelie: Deadpool wearing a tank top, that's hard to believe
 Bugberry: Hopefully no one says "Fs in chat" around Hunter
  TXC2: Deadpool is always in pain
 beowuuf: no! take it back! quick!
 SplittingImage77: Deadpool sounds like a budget Mike Wazowski
 BrowneePoints: It's Nolan North. He usually does Deadpool but in this instance he was REALLY Nolan North-y @SplittingImage77
  TXC2: yes that's right Sara, hit on protégé  of your dead wife
 beowuuf: look, it's less tasteless than if the wife was still alive 
 dumbo3k: people being nice to each other? definitely #apocalypsewow

 TheMerricat: I've completely forgotten can anyone else see Agatha?
 BusTed: awkward
 SplittingImage77: Hunter’s heart grew two sizes that day
 SplittingImage77: Crossed arm battle
 TehAmelie: everyone in this game loves crossing their arms
 BusTed: 
 BusTed: That is one of the more fantastical elements of the game.
 Hangedman: i would love to see a mod of this that reduces the character random bark frequency by like... 2/3
 BusTed: Take that, strange
 ScrapyardGhostTrain: @Hangedman "Shut up, Central," you mean? Clearly they didn't learn.
 BusTed: doing a little peek
 dumbo3k: I think the outfit you have designed as equipped doesn't show up in the forge
Lysander_salamander: wow
 Bugberry: horns, hair, now hair horns
 TehAmelie: hood hair is a real problem i have noticed with my hair long
  TXC2: kinda works honestly
 BusTed: I'm trying to picture the hair poking out as part of the mustache now.
  TXC2: always reject the binary
 TehAmelie: i wonder if they planned it so the heroes make that slow motion walk because the game slows down when it has to load a level
KeytarCat: @TehAmelie If it's going to be a problem, might as well disguise it as a feature
 Hangedman: love a good modern disguised load
 TehAmelie: quite
 dumbo3k: spidey is just gonna take a little spidey nap
KeytarCat: Do a little floor inspection
 TehAmelie: Spidey has been known to take a power nap whilst getting kicked around by henchmen
 TehAmelie: true comic book story
Asimech: @TehAmelie "If you snooze, you don't lose!" -Spidey-mons' motto.
  TXC2:   
 TehAmelie: aaa a ghost
 TehAmelie: 
 dumbo3k: gotta mediate the ghostly discussion
 dumbo3k: I'm sure nothing can go wrong with tossing caretakers room to find a memento of agatha
KeytarCat: "Fascinating discovery, I wish it didn't"
