Tales of Kenzera: ZAU is a good game… but not a good Metroidvania – Cannot be Tamed

Melons out. Choker. She’s going all out today. She really wants that 100,000 subscribers.

2:15 – I don’t even know what she’s saying. I’ve already tuned out. It’s some game about African tribal characters and…they’re dealing with death and..their feelings…and capitalising on the woke movement.

Not for me, Pamela.

3:15 – She says “bin” as in “garbage” or “trash”. Is this what people say in Canada? Or is this a British term that only seeped into the broader Anglophone lexicon due to the internet.

“Recycle bin” on your computer. It’s called the same thing in the US, right? It used to be called “trash”. Then they wanted to make it more politically correct so they changed it to “recycle bin”.

Was the icon called “trash” in the UK too? I have to assume so. They’re not renaming it to “rubbish” for the UK market, surely.

Oh, my god, they did rename it. At least for MacOS (whatever that is).

With macOS Mojave, the Trash was renamed “Bin” in the Australian English localisation, and with macOS Catalina, “Bin” also appeared in the UK localisation

Windows 95 was the change from “trash” to “recycle bin”. That sounds about right.

4:45 – I’m losing the will to live and I’m only halfway through this. She’s a total bore.

6:30 – “The game’s soundtrack is incredible: a mix of African traditional music, synths, and electronics. It’s one I would listen to in or outside of the game.”

Uh huh. What’s your favourite African traditional song, Pam?

She ends the video by telling you to go to her Patreon. No thanks, Pam.

Well, actually, let’s check it out. Now I’m intrigued.

275 members. £197/month. How does that work? People are giving less than £1 a month?

Yeah, I guess so. There are only two tiers. One is £1, the other is £4.50. In the US and Canada, it’s presumably $1 and $5. As per usual, prices get jacked up in the UK.

She offers nothing extra for the higher tier. And there’s basically nothing in the lower tier. You can vote on polls. Whoopdeedoo. I mean, I like polls and all but I’m not paying £1/month for that.

African tribal music. Come on. Who’s rocking out to that shit?

My lady friend seems to know a lot about music but it’s not something that we talk about much. But you can mention a singer or band or song or something and she’ll know it.

Even old shit. There’s some corny as fuck shit that they play on New Years Eve on the BBC. They get some old time singers to sing their biggest hits. It’s to appeal to the elderly, who are sitting at home and watching this shit. I’m listening to this shit and saying, “Who would possibly know any of these people” but she knows the names of the songs and who these people are.

Another time, we were watching some game show, I don’t remember, Pointless or something. And one of the answers was Rosa Parks. There was something about Rosa Parks. And I thought, “That’s a ridiculously easy question.” But she didn’t know it. Instead, she knew some stupid question about S Club 7 or something.

So I start mocking her lack of knowledge about civil rights in relation to her wealth of knowledge about shitty pop music. I’m telling her that she should be embarrassed that she knows S Club 7’s obscure releases but not Rosa Parks. She says, “I knew but Rosa Parks is an American thing. She’s not so well-known here.”

It’s much like Erin. She’s a total fucking dope. Well, I’m not saying that my ladyfriend is a total dope but this is how a lot of people are. They’re interested in stupid trivial bullshit like Britney Spears and Weezer at the expense of of more substantial things.

We were in Pizza Hut and every song being played was from a black band. So I said this is completely bizarre. Everybody in here is white, the city is overwhelmingly white, why is this the playlist? She said, “This isn’t a black band this is (whatever).” She gave the name of the band, I don’t remember, but one of the members is black and the rest are white. So I said, “Okay, whatever, but this seems a very peculiar playlist to me given the clientele.” She said, “Good music is good music.”

Another time, many years ago, I was telling her about a co-worker of mine who was a fat white woman. And whenever this woman talked about music, it would be hip hop or the like. So I said that it’s obvious that this woman is taking advantage of the black guys who like fat white women situation. She made a face and this is when I was still trying to impress her so I backtracked and said, “Maybe she just likes the music, I guess.” She said, “Yeah, just because she likes that type of music doesn’t mean that she likes that type of man.” But of course I was right.

Where was I going with this? Oh yeah, Pam and her bondage gear and tits and whatnot. I don’t know. How is she going to get that 100,000 subscribers? I think that my nude reviews on OnlyFans idea was a bad one. Because that fat hillbilly who pimps out MintSalad stole this idea from me and it doesn’t seem to be working for him.

Oh, I see that she’s watching Star Trek now and other nerd shows. Like that Galifrey Girls that I…eugh…have attempted to watch a few times.

It’s so insulting. These women are obviously not interested in Star Trek and this nerd shit but they’re intentionally choosing to make videos about it to pull in horny nerds. Can it possibly work? They’re nerds, not retards. They can see when something isn’t genuine.

I enjoyed Star Trek and science fiction and nerd shit in my adolescence. I can not imagine finding any erotic inspiration from some woman pretending to like that shit. It’s totally beyond my comprehension. Does this exist? Are there men out there stupid enough to find this erotic?

According to Mint Salad’s views numbers, no. Not really.

  1. “The game’s soundtrack is incredible: a mix of African traditional music, synths, and electronics. It’s one I would listen to in or outside of the game.”

    I am all for starting a go-fund me campaign to stuff pam on a plane on a one-way ticket to somalia. then she will have hands-on experience with all the african music she wants. plus, she’s bound to become a much more humble human being
