loufghyslaufey: In this day & age of our "2026"?
 PharaohBender27: And also clickwheel is so much better than a touchscreen
 PharaohBender27: But then I'm a certified touchscreen hater
 ErynTzun: Sony still makes Walkman media players
Metric_Furlong: @PharaohBender27 you're not alone, comrade

  Juliamon: Mercator is factually inaccurate on nearly every relevant level
loufghyslaufey: Is it cuz I'm not staying tuned to E:33, from the very beginning?
 ErynTzun: There is no perfect 2D map
Metric_Furlong: now, the important question is the fourth France going to be 'France 4' or 'Fr4nce'?
loufghyslaufey: Eh?
SaxPython:   
loufghyslaufey: Your what now?
adept_nekomancer: Apologies if this has already been asked, but is there any plan to return to Unbeatable at some point?
  Juliamon: adept_nekomancer I don't see why not
loufghyslaufey: Oh, hey! I didn't know the Mayor of New York was in this game!    
 accountmadeforants: Oh I was about to ask about Unbeatable, too 
adept_nekomancer: Good to know -- I was really enjoying watching the playthrough of that one!
 accountmadeforants: Unbeatable is an all-out banger

 PharaohBender27: Preach, Ian!
loufghyslaufey: Has Ian played the Ghost series from Sucker Punch at one point?
Metric_Furlong: but Ian, single player is harder to continously monetize 
 ContingentCat: being an edge case is fun, it's great when something is for you
 Dog_of_Myth: Ooof
 goombalax: it WOT
SaxPython:   
 accountmadeforants: I mean, the other two of those are singleplayer (with optional co-op). The multiplayer gamers do deserve some crumbs

Bruceski: I enjoy the number of comments on that animation saying "I thought this was a joke, THEY JUST USED THE AUDIO LOG?!"
FlynnSmirk: 12 days is just exhausting

 ErynTzun: There's a door knocker on each apartment door here, the phone to be let in if it worked is on the outside of the building.
 accountmadeforants: Now I'm picturing a door knocker with a camera in it, to keep things modern 
reptile___ subscribed with Prime. They've subscribed for 63 months!
 reptile___: oh hey you're back to E33!  This game has a happy ending, right?
  LRRbot:  Thanks for subscribing, reptile___! (Today's storm count: 5)
 accountmadeforants: Oh yeah it has to be an animal head
 SquareDotCube: The Young Frankenstein kind 
Laserbeaks_Fury: Leave it to LRR to admire peoples knockers and it's not what you think
 ErynTzun: We're not supposed to have cameras on our doors, but someone on another floor has a Ring camera. I avoid going near them because of that and also they smoke - this is a non-smoking building.
 RockPusher: A replica of one of the Labyrinth knockers
 Orestes290: Sonic head would match the ring
 accountmadeforants: Skulls are also good (still falls under the animal head thing, but different style), gotta make them think just for a second that a lich might be living there.
Laserbeaks_Fury: You want a knocker that looks like any moment it's going to cry out "EBENEZER SCROOGE!"
 SquareDotCube: Or Garfield
Laserbeaks_Fury: "I got a knock...."
 accountmadeforants: A mold of your own face, and when you answer the door you also have a ring in your mouth.
 ButButTheJesus: door knocker with the "cornhole in the hornhole" face
 ButButTheJesus: https://youtu.be/06b8KgYm2qs?t=31
 SquareDotCube: @accountmadeforants Or nose ring!
 ErynTzun: The other Hooty  tube shaped
 Dog_of_Myth: Ian, after a quick search, I did find a Goofy door knocker
 Dog_of_Myth: Someone had them on Etsy
  Juliamon: I would be lying if I said I haven't given thought to getting my septum pierced purely so I could get a really elaborate clicker for it

Laserbeaks_Fury: Renoir took off his training skin
 RockPusher:  
 Dog_of_Myth: 
 SFSMaus: 
Laserbeaks_Fury: If you do all the side stuff, by the time you get here you can blow through this fight so hard, it skips all the story beats
 UtilityPunk: Renoir fights for hope against despair. The magical girl theory seems to hold 
SaxPython: I can not figure out how to dodge these. This is sick.
 SFSMaus: The music absolutely rocks.
SaxPython:  
SaxPython: half time
 UtilityPunk: Axon time
