174) Give Her Some Credit

If only it were so easy for the rest of us

So, Leslie and I got Poker Night 2, even after I had previously expressed my doubts regarding the roster choice. But hey, it was five bucks, even a couple of poor saps like us could throw that away for what might be a good time. And y'know, it really has been. I'm fucking terrible at poker and lose all the time, but the experience isn't as unbearable as I thought it'd be. Claptrap is still quite clearly the weakest character in the group and Ash is a little TOO relient on the fact that he's, y'know, Ash (Boomsticks and Deadites, am I right? Guys?) but there's still some really great moments. I think maybe I'm just becoming a little TOO cynical when it comes to games, and now every little flaw I see, I just blow it up in my mind to the point where any new game is unplayable. So I think it was worth trying out, at least.

Still wish the animations were smoother and the conversations would repeat less, though.

In other news, Leslie's got a flat tire and I have some El Fudge cookies, so things are going great for one of us! We're also super thrilled with the sheer amount of comments the last page got. A lot of people are still divided, a few of you are actually getting really emotional about it, gaaawd it's so COOL. Any time something bums Leslie and I out, we just remind ourselves, "Yo, remember those comments we got?" And everything's brighter. For real, I hope you guys will like how this chapter ends!

But that's enough for now, I'mma let Leslie play some Poker Night. See you Wednesday!
