“Grey Gardens” Documentary now had me interested to find out what they were parodying and it just held my attention from start to finish. The crew is just there to observe, very little influence by them. Not that they needed to, the duo was entertaining on their own. You get to see what happens to these people who were once basically royalty what mental health and isolation does to someone. Yet, they maintain a level of optimism and a sense of living life the best they can. It’s a beautiful combination of sad and hopeful.

What do you know of the current methods. Where did this information come from? I’d really like to see it. You spoke with such knowledge, you must have the data to make it up, right?

Demos were not used that way

No? I’ve been gaming for thirty years and no I don’t remember demos being used for that.

I'm not really sure what this conversation is. I just thought saying you would rather an Yakuza protagonist was just an obvious better choice since the way they are written. I wasn't trying to start a conversation about "criminals" in real life.

Yakuza is fiction. The characters are not realistic. No I don’t think criminals are constant evil or some other binary view of a human being. Though unlike the games I don’t know each of them individually like I do the yakuza protagonists.

It’s just an odd one to mention because, obviously.

Were they really though? Like outside out the quick joke people make about mafia vs government were they really that competent? I feel like people have romanticized the mafia a little bit, like historically that doesn’t seem accurate.

I mean, yah? They are written as criminals with hearts of gold.
