theblackstrawberry asked: Lyra bo-byra tell me everything about your trip.
Nah. Boscov covered it pretty well.
Anonymous asked: I was talking about Pony Revolution so you were right. I should've been specific. You offered quite a few tips, the only part I remember is you mentioned wanting the Icarus for the second city, but that's it. I didn't find that glitch, by the sounds of it I don't think I even found the mission and probably missed it, I'm out in the what I think is the second city. As for games, I meant what you're playing currently, but I will agree that Disgaea tons of fun. No space for a question. Next time!
Oh yeah. Icarus is really helpful once you get to Hengsha, and EMP Shielding is really useful in the second boss battle. I’d advise having it by the time you reach the basement of Picus Communication for that fight.
Also, if you’re doing a non-lethal run, gas grenades are non-lethal. Having a few, and an EMP grenade, will make your life much easier when you get back to Hengsha the second time.
Anonymous asked: What does Boscov see in you?
That’s really more of something to ask him.
Why me I’ll never understand.
Anonymous asked: So why did you choose an interspecies lifestyle? Was it because you wanted attention? Do you believe most colts are trash? Are you a self-loathing pony?
I didn’t. I just gave it a chance.
No.
No.
How is that relevant?
By the way, I would have given this post more of my time, but all four of those questions have been asked in one way or another more than once. I get the feeling you care less about the answer I give for them and more about justifying the conclusion you’ve already drawn out for yourself.
Anonymous asked: Hi Lyra! A little random, but thanks for recommending Deus Ex so much so many months ago. Finally got time to play it and it is so much fun! Shame I can't remember all the little tips and tricks you wrote all that time ago. Anyways, onto my actual question: When you've actually gotten time to play anything, if at all, what have you spending most of your time on?
I’m glad you’re enjoying it!
Not sure how many tips I offered. I do remember one glitch I encountered. When you get back to base after the first real mission, don’t go into any apartment buildings until you get a side mission to non-lethally capture a specific gang member. If you run into his guards before hand, one of them might glitch and get teleported to an area you can’t reach once you get the mission. It’s the only glitch I ever ran across in all three of my playthroughs, which is a shame because it happened so early off that it really lowers the precieved quality of the game.
Talk to people. Side missions aren’t specially marked and you don’t want to miss out on any. Plus you can hear some useful or immersive dialog.
If you’re having trouble with a boss fight, know that the first two can be won with only the equipment found in the battle room. If it comes down to it, try to avoid the boss and look around the room for weapons or environmental objects to use. There’s a few weapons lying around in the third boss room, but if you can win with just that, I have no idea how. Anything that can damage you, can and will damage a boss. The only exception is that you can’t do a melee attack against them, but they can against you.
You mean like, most time spend on a single game ever? If MMOs are included, City of Ponies by far. If we’re only talking about regular games, Disgaea. The game isn’t all that long, I just liked playing around and having fun with it.
I also enjoyed Disgaea 2, and would have played 3 and 4, but I don’t have a Playstable 3.
Edit: Huh, just realized you might have meant the first Deus Ex. Let me know if that’s what you meant.
Anonymous asked: Oh, I thought your argument was that there are no real heroes.
I suppose in hindsight that depends more on your definition of “real hero.”
theblackstrawberry asked: It's Strawberry!! Open up!
It’s been a while, but I don’t think that’s how knock knock jokes work.
theblackstrawberry asked: *knock knock*
Who’s there?
theblackstrawberry asked: I heard you were back?
Nope.
There was a freak tornado that picked up the train and tossed it all the way back to the train station in Manehatten. No one was harmed and nothing was damaged, but it’ll take a whole ‘nother day to-
Yes, we’re back!
Anonymous asked: Do you have moble format disabled?
Yes.
I’ve answered this before, but it disables the links I have in my sidebar, which makes navigation through my own page more difficult on my Manedroid.
Anonymous asked: Okay, so you didn't 'have' to, but did you do so anyway?
Unless you’re trying to live vicariously through me, does it matter?
And if you are, quit it. That’s kinda creepy.

Anonymous asked: That's how it works already. People choose a point where they don't compromise anymore and that is the point where things are considered black.
Even when somepony thinks they don’t compromise anymore, they still do.
Anonymous asked: Nah, everything is black and white, you just have to choose an arbitrary point in the grayscale where everything is considered black.
What a well-formulated and well-documented argument you present.
I’m convinced!
1) I didn’t have to, no.
2) I think you need some new material. We’ve done this bit before.
3) What?! I never said that! I was just trying to explain my position that the world isn’t made up of blacks and whites. What you believe to be one hundred percent right, beyond-the-shadow-of-a-doubt, is at best only the majority opinion. I only meant to justify my jaded life-stance, not belittle anypony! Twilight and her friends saved us!
4) Nah; I’m pretty straight forward.
5) From what I’ve heard, the entire gang culture across the entire country has been on the decline for quite a while now. I could try to explain it in more detail, if anypony cares.
6) Everypony loves a celebrity. If Morgan Freemane ever trotted past me, I’d turn into a slack-jawed idiot myself.
7) Not me, no. Evidently I sound like a guy. Somepony’s mentioned that about Bon-Bon before. I’d recommend sending her a message if you want a response from her. That’s the only way you’re going to get any kind of real answer from her.
Just, you know, be patient.
8) If you say so.
I’m back, by the way!
