Man, I really did have the best lines this episode. It's amazing how much mileage you can get out of a basic concept~

*Iced makes a note to steal UKs lines.

The question is of course are the random add ons demons, just normal monsters, or our former directors actual human goons?

They're Roukan's goons.

He's set up the entire studio as a popularity stunt!

In short, I was afraid of straw feminism. But instead they actually seemed to really believe that avoiding obvious, overplayed gender tropes was a good thing, and I was really impressed by that.

Oh, I see.

Looking forward to what else comes of these adventures, btw :>

It's the sword.  It's eating my mind.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

(We should probably do something about these monsters though...)

I hope this season ends with me squarehouse kicking Amra in the face >=[. Stealing all the good lines. THOSE WERE MINE

Damn it Amra!  Because of your actions we'll be first against the wall when the pigeon uprising happens!  Curse my enabling ways!

I'm just waiting for the episode where I SQUAREHOUSE KICK AMRA IN THE FACE. He's so mean to pick on my terrible pigeon costume friend like that :(.

In-game kickstarter rewards really shouldn't be a thing, they're so jarringly random.

Anyway, Rou, stop being competent, if it gets too easy I don't need to do any healing and then I'll get bored :[

oh hey, good thing you got the ironing man episode

There was actually an update a few days ago that changed the game in a couple ways.  The big things first off were the significant nerfing to audience gains and increasing money costs (those fan club skills are actually really useful now as opposed to completely unnecessary), and that a couple episodes have been temporarily removed - the blackouts episode in season 2, and the ironing man episode.  Mostly because apparently they're causing hell to some newer players and they want to rebalance them.

Oh well.  Need to play this and get significantly ahead of you again!

I'm actually on Season 5 right now - I've got a lot of backlog stored. I hit Season 5 just before the big drop, so even though my fans/cash have fallen through the floor I'm still so crazy rich that it doesn't even matter. :V

And personally I wonder about that whole pacing issue. Given that the two episodes that got removed were ones that took obvious pot shots at Saban and Marvel...

It could be possible it's that, too.  Can't tell with this game, it's in legal murk everywhere @_@

But as an aside, if you're at Season 5, I assume that means there'll be no vote about
Spoiler:
which route we end up on?

I'm planning to do all three, but yes, I have an order set out for it. And a save file backed up so I don't have to replay the game twice over. :V

You have NO idea how disappointed I am that I didn't get to kick Amra in the face. I /guess/ destroying the voodoo brain control device was ok though...

Kinda surprised the true evil isn't our former director.  (At least so far.)

Cleave Time is pretty great, but so's Trample.  The thing the game doesn't list on a lot of actions is which ones are 'free' (EG don't consume your turn), and Trample's one of them.  You can move five spaces in a straight line (barring terrain), damaging every enemy in your way, for free.  And every other turn.  I found this a lot more useful simply because half my turns were Squarehouse kicks anyway.  (But they're both really solid abilities)

And yeah Biinon's is so stupid OP it's hilarious.

"Did anyone kill a blue ranger on the way here?  No?  Then we still I have a problem."

Wonder if this episode was revenge for Season 3.

"Remembering this guy as 'the guy who dropped the camera' actually gets you fewer fans than saying you don't remember him at all. It's a bad reputation he wants to put behind him, apparently."

Then why would he have it as his email account...?
