Conversation

Get this guy a good pr label rn |
|
can MMIs, carded AIs, and posibrains also get the emote? So we can make the obvious joke when the AI gets put into a intelitater |
|
The best PR. Maybe ever? |
|
Oh yeah, IPC's should also probably get this emote. |
|
Why only for silicons? |
|
IPCs can slowclap now. Went ahead and made it so MMIs can use all silicon emotes too |

Weird way to word it. Why would borgs have a slow clap processor? Why would a MMI have a slow clap processor? Maybe a synthetizer. But then again, kinda silly emote worded this way. Ideally emotes should be able to be understanded without sound, and the way its currently worded is a little confusing. Also, in my opinion something like "plays a slow clapping sound" is a much more dry and sarcastic statement.

I just updated my original review with a more extensive opinion while you were responding if you want to read it. I did not remember that Portal phrase, but even though its a funny nod to a beloved franchise I still think it does not translate well into the game worded this way

I guess I can agree about why a borg would have a slow clap processor in the first place, but if you used that logic elsewhere half the game would be removed + this isn't a HRP server. As for the wording of the emote, I disagree. I think how it is now is funnier and the only problem I see with it because of it's length it doesn't fully display in runechat (you can see this in the testing evidence). Thanks for the feedback though!
