Okay I finished drv3. I want to do a collective post on my thoughts of it, but this is just gonna be me bitching about the ending and how awful it was and I’ll leave my collective thoughts for another post. Anyhoo spoilers below.
I have a lot of mixed feelings for drv3′s ending, but honestly, most of them aren’t good. That being said, it wasn’t all that awful. The whole “dr/sdr2 is a work of fiction!” and “this is just a reality show!” had an interesting premise, and the whole poking fun at fans, fourth wall breaking, and generally questioning why people find entertainment out of games that hurt fictional characters did deliver. It was a creative spin and I applaud the author for taking such a daring route.
However, the moment they pulled the “all your identities and personalities are fiction!” is when it started to go downhill. I mean I understand where they were going with the whole “even if everything is a lie, our feelings aren’t lies!” but it just. Didn’t fucking work. They pretty much threw EVERYTHING they established about these characters out the window and went “in reality these characters are a bunch of normies who signed up for the killing game of their own free will because they have a massive danganronpa kink”. If you’re trying to tell me that everything about these characters, from their personalities, to their identities, to their backstories, are a load of horse shit then why am I even supposed to care about these characters.
Like. They didn’t even give us a reason why these characters volunteered anyway. If they were a bunch of normies who were duped into joining, or they had a desperate reason to join cuz there was no other option for them, then fine. But as far as I’m concerned, these dumbasses just joined cuz they liked the thrill and because they have a danganronpa kink. The whole “our identities may be fiction, but our feelings aren’t!” just Did Not Deliver because why am I supposed to feel empathy to these idiots who joined because “why the fuck not!” Like ffs I love dr too but you aren’t gonna see me develop some kink for murder and sign up for death games.
Like honestly sdr2 just handled the whole “massive plot twist about the entire cast” and the “memories make a person!” theme sooooo much better. The entire cast being manipulated into joining a cult by Ultimate Bitch because they had their insecurities and weaknesses preyed on, and how their memories shaped who they were as people worked and it felt believable. It did not work in drv3, nor did it feel believable and I wish they just never went down that route.
Moving on the idea that they’re all talentless bimbos just doesn’t make sense. Someone with a danganronpa kink can’t make bombs that disable electronics just because she “remembered” she was an inventor. Someone with a danganronpa kink can’t be agile, quick, physically strong and have fighting capabilities that you’d only have with years of torturous training just because she “remembered” she was an assassin.
This leads to the implication that Shirogane was perhaps just fucking with them and that they didn’t join of their own free will. While it’s cool how it’s left open ended for interpretation, even if Shirogane was lying the entire time, where does that lead? Does that mean everything WAS real and that Shirogane just kidnapped a bunch of kids and orchestrated an entire killing game for the lols simply because instead of the gang having a danganronpa kink, she just has a junko kink??
The world building was just so. bad. You have all this cool build up with the meteorites and the golfer project only to retcon it in the last trial and pretty much just say the entire storyline build up up to this point was bullshit. Now the whole thing with the apocalypse and being shipped out into space seemed like a massive rip off of virtue’s last reward but the other storyline of it being all a killing game reality show is just a rip off of hunger games so either way, it’s not like either plotline wins the award of originality.
I’m all for open endings and having stuff left up to interpretation but for drv3 it just felt like they threw two completely different storylines into our faces then went “pick your fancy” because they obviously don’t care enough to ground their story a lil bit more. Love me some good fourth wall breaking and kinkshaming of fans, but if your writing suffers in your attempt to kink shame fans then we have a problem.
That being said, there are some things I liked about it. I did like how they gave the whole “hope versus despair” theme the middle finger... even though “truth versus lies” or “reality versus fiction” isn’t a really more creative. But the whole truth/lie thing did work since it tied really nicely with say, Ouma’s character. Ouma always talked about how lies aren’t as nasty as people make it look like and he was shot down everytime, but this ending shows that his words actually had weight and perhaps he was right. 
It also tied really well into Shirogane, the Ultimate Cosplayer, being the mastermind. I know the general consensus was that Shirogane was an awful villain but I actually liked her quite a bit. I will say that I wasn’t really fond of her whole wallflower act. While I do understand the intent of having the girl with the “useless cosplay talent that can’t help us in anyway”, end up being the mastermind because she’s a cosplayer, her being a total wallflower really made me have a hard time growing attached to her or even caring about her prior the mastermind reveal. 
Even so, I loved how the mastermind role tied with her talent so nicely. A cosplayer allows you to bring fiction to life after all, and Shirogane embodied that ideology to a T. It was quite ironic for Shirogane to insist that Saihara and crew have no significance because they’re “just fictional”, yet Shirogane lives her life constantly bordering between reality and fiction. Shirogane should understand better than anyone how powerful fiction can be because she’s a cosplayer, and in a way she does, yet she also doesn’t, and that ends up being her downfall. So yeah, I hate the whole “it’s all fiction!” plotline to the depths of my bones but it fit really nicely into Shirogane’s character. While Shirogane obviously lacks development from being a wallflower for 5/6s of the game, I didn’t find her to be as awful of a villain as people thought and she’s one of the only things I liked about the whole “reality versus fiction” plot.
Anyway wow this is long but yeah. Overall the ending gets a big fat thumbs down LMAO. It could have been worse but it just felt like a massive waste of potential.

Having difficulty cancelling auto insurance with allstate?

I called their 24 hour customer service and spoke with someone who said they'd put in the request to cancel the policy again. I log into my bank today and they WITHDREW my March payment! So I called them again and they said the policy was still active. The lady I spoke with tonight said they will need to see proof that I'm with Geico now. Why didn't anyone tell me that the first two times? What do I need to do to get my policy to be cancelled?

How to insure a used car off of the lot with no previous insurance?

This is so ridiculous to me, to pay for insurance twice?! I just want to know the legal & affordable & practical way of insuring this vehicle. Is it not possible to be at the dealership, buy the car, get insurance over the phone while still on the lot, and then drive it home? Because I realize that the dealer will not let you drive it off of the lot if you don't have insurance. Also, how will they know I have the insurance? Since I currently do not have any, I won't have an insurance card or anything material to provide as proof... will they accept an over-the-phone affirmation by the insurance company as proof?""

Does a ticket for not having insurance increase your insurance rate?
I'm a professional driver of a honda civic for a major company in California. My corporation has a policy that says if you have 3 or more dings on your record in 5 years (dings classified as anything that would increase their cost for your insurance policy) that you lose your job. 3 years ago I got a ticket for going 5 miles through a stop sign, that was #1, 8 months ago I got a speeding ticket for 78 in a 65, that was #2. Tonight I went through a DUI checkpoint, I had everything except my insurance policy was 8 days past due. The officer and myself figured I just had an outdated card and all I needed was proof of insurance. It turns out, for some stupid reason, gieco didn't auto-renew my insurance policy, and I simply didn't have insurance for 8 days.

How long will it take for your auto insurance premiums to go down after and accident and a speeding ticket?
I got into a car accident 3 years ago. Due to my car lost control during raining weather. There was no one involved but myself and the police cited me for reckless driving. That was almost 3 years ago. Recently, in October I had gotten a speeding ticket of going over 15-20. I took it upon myself to go to traffic school both times to wipeout some of the points off my driving record, but some how my insurance still upped my premiums yet again. My question is how long will it take for my premiums to go down or have the accident removed from my record? Does any one know of a good insurance company that I can transfer to due to my insurance premiums are way too high. I know of other people who have worse records but their insurance isnt at much as mine. Also I've had my license for 13 years and have in all that time just have been in 1 accident and 2 speeding tickets. Any help would be appreciated.""

Question about newborn insurance coverage under the mother's plan?
With the birth of my first two children, any claims that were submitted to the insurance company for the first 30 days were paid under my plan. After that, I could elect to add them to my policy or not. I had a baby 30 days ago and they're denying his claims. I've called Humana (a new insurance for me since the birth of my first children) and they assured me that the claims for him would be paid, and that they would NOT add him to my policy (he has separate insurance). I was just at Humana's website searching for a provider (for myself) and it appears they've added him and made my deductible of $2,000 go up to $4,000 (family coverage). Is this correct?

Car insurance company discriminate against me because I was not born in the UK?
I had a quote for car insurance through a well-known national company. They were aware I had a UK licence for 5 years and had no convictions, claims etc. I rang and spoke to a representative and she confirmed the quote. The following day I decided to accept and called them. We went through my information and the agent said, so you were born in the UK? I said no, I am a UK citizen but I was born abroad. The quote then went up by 200 !!!! I took issue and spoke to a manger who said this was legitimate when I told him I was certain it was illegal since the only information that had changed was my place of birth, he eventually said he would honour the original quote. I then bought the policy with a one-off payment. Insurance is a racket and I don't think they should be alllowed to get by with this.

The USWNT has a lot of questions to answer after finishing last in the SheBelieves Cup
Is a three-woman defense a wild experiment, or does Jill Ellis have a plan? What should Carli Lloyd and Alex Morgan’s roles be? Plus a lot more.
The United States women’s national team entered the SheBelieves Cup expecting to win the tournament on home soil, and turn in three solid performances at the very least. Instead, they finished dead last, following up a win against Germany with shutout losses to England and France. It was the first time the USWNT had lost back-to-back home games since 2000.
Two bad losses aren’t something to be concerned about in and of themselves. The USWNT is making drastic changes in tactics and personnel, and they’re doing so at a time that makes sense — the next major tournament is more than two years away. There were plenty of positives to come out of the tournament, and even more problems that conceivably have workable short-term solutions.
But some aspects of the USWNT’s play and tactics just look bad. So let’s talk about everything: the good, the fixable, and the downright worrying.
The back three is a work in progress
Last September, USWNT head coach Jill Ellis debuted a new 3-4-1-2 formation out of nowhere, in a friendly against the Netherlands. It turned out to be more than just a a one-off experiment in a throwaway game — Ellis has continued to use a back three, and did in all three SheBelieves Cup games. The team appears to have improved in their understanding of the system, but they’re very far from expert level.
France’s goals in the final game of the tournament illustrate the USWNT’s problem with positional understanding perfectly. On Les Bleus’ second, Allie Long failed to anticipate a long ball over the top to Eugenie Le Sommer, while Becky Sauerbrunn made a poor decision in her attempt to help, and goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher’s positioning left something to be desired.
Eugénie Le Sommer = really fast. #USWNT in trouble early in the final match of the #SheBelievesCup https://t.co/hxISesDHH7
— FOX Soccer (@FOXSoccer) March 8, 2017
France’s third showed off an even bigger problem with the team’s lack of mastery of their roles in this formation. Left center back Casey Short and left wingback Tobin Heath both stepped up to close down the ball during the move, leaving Eve Perisset free to run in behind the defense.
GUYS. #USAvFRA http://pic.twitter.com/PqiMlutOn0
— thrace (@thrace) March 8, 2017
Once Perisset broke free down the right, Long, Sauerbrunn and Naeher had to scramble to attempt to recover, and it would be unfair to blame them for failing to cut out the resulting cross or stop Camile Abily from scoring.
The American defense looked competent in the Germany game, but was a bit shaky with Julie Johnston and Ali Krieger rotated in against England. Long and Short returned to face France, and weren’t nearly as sharp as they were in the opener. Ellis still has to find the right three players to use in defense, then make sure they have a good understanding of their roles in the system. Right now, it doesn’t look like anyone has a good understanding of how to defend in this shape.
Does Ellis understand the system’s deficiencies? Well, it’s hard to say.
Given the timing, these SheBelieves Cup games were exhibitions that were slightly more competitive than normal friendlies, which the USWNT used to try out a new system and some new players as well. Still, the USWNT was taking these games seriously. They wanted to win. And, uh...
Ellis said USWNT was surprised how direct France played. 'It was as direct as I've ever seen them play.'
— Andrew Das (@AndrewDasNYT) March 8, 2017
That’s not great, especially since it was obvious to France’s coach and players exactly how they should be attacking the USWNT.
Eugénie Le Sommer said that with the USWNT's 3-5-2 they knew they could put three up top and also exploit the US on the flanks
— Caitlin Buckley (@caitlinbuckley2) March 8, 2017
Back three systems are inherently susceptible to being overloaded on the flanks against teams that play variations of 4-3-3, but there are ways to mitigate those problems. The USWNT didn’t do anything to prevent themselves from getting roasted out wide — they played true wingers, not wingbacks in the wingback slots — and even weirder, it didn’t occur to them that France might use this strategy.
It’s true that the USWNT was more concerned with getting better at playing in a back three than they were at stifling France, but it’s not clear that Ellis has a sound idea in place here. We should remember that this is the coach who called attacking midfielders Carli Lloyd and Lauren Holiday “two No. 6s” during the World Cup group stage, and only accidentally stumbled into a better lineup because Holiday’s suspension forced her to give Morgan Brian a chance.
Off-the-ball movement is a problem
Because a 3-4-1-2 formation features wide players starting from deeper positions than formations the USWNT has used previously, it’s very important for the strikers to move off the ball — perhaps wide, if there’s space wide — to give defensive midfielders and defenders the same number of positive passing options that they’d have if the team was playing a variation of 4-4-2 or 4-3-3. The forwards weren’t doing a great job of that all tournament, and especially in the second half against France.
Live #USWNT observation: Lack of dynamic runs off ball is killing attack. Very few good options as backs bring ball up field. #USAvFRA
— Sebastian Salazar (@SebiSalazarFUT) March 8, 2017
There was one particularly bad moment late in the France match. Lindsey Horan did an excellent job to win the ball in midfield, surge forward into space and draw defenders’ attention towards her. She had her head up, looking for an early pass. And she had no one to pass to, because the forwards were all standing still.
Is 3-4-1-2 the best fit?
The concept of the USWNT’s new formation makes sense. They’re best with two strikers, but two-time FIFA World Player of the Year and captain Carli Lloyd is pretty much a pure attacking midfielder. She’s a bit slow to play as a pure striker and a liability defensively in a midfield two, but world class at scoring from the No. 10 position. A 4-3-1-2 or 4-4-2 diamond formation isn’t a great idea because the USWNT’s wide players are too good to keep on the bench. So Ellis came up with the solution of using those great wide players as wingbacks, and making up for their defensive liabilities by playing three center backs.
But this really doesn’t feel like the best use of available talent. Casey Short and Ali Krieger, who played as outside center backs at SheBelieves, are much better as balanced fullbacks in a back four. Allie Long plays as a box-to-box central midfielder fro the Portland Thorns, and looks a bit out of place at center back. Julie Johnston and Becky Sauerbrunn formed the best two-woman center back partnership in the world before this formation change. And there’s something criminal about forcing players like Crystal Dunn and Tobin Heath into roles where they have large defensive responsibilities and shouldn’t take too many risks going forward.
The best use of the USWNT’s top players is probably a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 formation that allows Lloyd or a similar attacking midfielder to get forward with defensive cover, while the wide players take risks and the fullbacks play support roles. This would demand a lot of smart movement or hold-up play from Alex Morgan or Christen Press — both of whom are probably better with a strike partner — but if either can learn the role, it would benefit the rest of the team immensely.
Heath and Dunn are simply too good to be wasted as wingbacks, and getting the USWNT’s defensive personnel up to speed in a back three looks like it’s going to take a ton of work.
Rose Lavelle is the real deal
The biggest bright spot at SheBelieves was Lavelle, a 21-year-old University of Wisconsin product who was selected by the Boston Breakers with the first pick at the 2017 NWSL College Draft. She started at left wingback against England — a role she’s never played before — and was the best player on the pitch in her USWNT debut.
Look at how she turns out of pressure, nutmegs a defender and makes a perfect pass to Mallory Pugh, turning defense into attack by herself in five seconds.
Lavelle is probably the most technically adept player to join the USWNT since Heath and Holiday started making appearances a decade ago. Ellis has regularly alluded to transforming the USWNT into a possession-oriented team — as did her predecessor, Tom Sermanni — and Lavelle will be a huge part of those plans going forward.
Ellis and Lloyd aren’t saying the right things
Worrying quote No. 1, from Ellis, on Lavelle
“What's her best role? I mean she's still kind of new with us so I think tonight in a game where I thought she did very well wide — and she's a natural lefty so we like her out there ... I think she did great. So we'll see in terms of where she ends up." (via Stephanie Yang)
First, “she’s a lefty so we played her on the left” is not great logic. Second, Ellis proceeded to play Lavelle on the right against France. It’s tough to figure out what she’s thinking.
This isn’t to say that Lavelle should play in her preferred position, as a No. 10. A lot of players prefer to play in that role, and most of them can’t, for the good of the team. But Ellis saying this, then swapping her to the right wing is very odd.
Worrying quote No. 2, from Ellis, on Short
Ellis says both Short and Naeher took steps forward tonight. #USAvFRA
— Chelsey Bush (@ChelseyWrites) March 8, 2017
A manager defending their players is a good thing. Managers should defend their players against criticism and direct the heat towards themselves. Short and Naeher are also good players who should get more chances with the national team, and not be judged on one game. But it’s ridiculous to say that they “took steps forward” against France. They both played poorly. Let’s hope Ellis was just defending them, not stating a genuinely held belief.
Worrying quote No. 3, from Lloyd
"Nobody likes losing 2 in a row. But this is what it's all about, to be tested by some of the best teams in the world. We have a lot of young players out there, a lot of players who haven't been a part of this team. The real focus is 2019, and if life were easy and we were winning all the time, it wouldn't taste that much sweeter to make it to the top. We've just got to keep focused on what we want to do, stick to the gameplan and all learn from this. It's just a learning tool." (FS1 interview with Jenny Taft)
The captain of the team should not be using young and new players as an excuse for a loss. Especially when they didn’t play well themselves, and were rightfully substituted for playing poorly.
We need to talk about The Undroppables
Only two players started every match for the USWNT at the SheBelieves cup, co-captains Lloyd and Sauerbrunn. As a result of their undroppable status, there was no time to get minutes for Jessica McDonald, the leading scorer in NWSL over the last three seasons, or Emily Sonnett, a 23-year-old defender widely considered to be an important part of the team’s future.
As Lloyd said, “the real focus is 2019.” If this is true, shouldn’t Ellis have picked a game to rest each of them and get a look at more players?
And at the same time, Lloyd’s form has been extremely up and down over the last year. She struggled at the Olympics, recovered to have an excellent fall, then played poorly in all three SheBelieves matches. Lloyd hasn’t been consistently great outside of major tournament knockout games either, at any point in her career. If she’s in poor form, someone else should get a shot.
Though it seems like Morgan is no longer part of their ranks
Once a member of the Undroppables Club, Alex Morgan appears to have fallen into a rotation, and will need to compete to get back to a place where her starting status is set in stone.
Kyle Terada-USA TODAY Sports
It looks like her competition is stiff, too. While none of the strikers were great at SheBelieves, Christen Press and Lynn Williams turned in the closest thing to a good performance, in the opener against England. Both were much better than Morgan in NWSL last season. And Morgan has studded to establish herself at the top of the forward pecking order on a loaded Olympique Lyonnais side, though partially due to injury issues.
There’s no question that Morgan is one of the most talented forwards in the world. Her 2012 is arguably the best individual year in USWNT history, and she showed flashes of her former greatness in 2016. But it’s been five years since Morgan was truly at the top of her game, and her grace period has ended. If she’s going to start big games, it’ll be because she earned it with her play for Lyon and Orlando Pride, as well as off the bench or in lower-level games for the USWNT.
Get ready for a lot of chemistry vs. form arguments
When any national team loses games they’re expected to win, fans get talking about the team selection. And with the USWNT, that argument usually boils down to one thing — do you pick the players in the best form, or try to build team chemistry?
Most of the USWNT’s big successes in their history have been during periods when they had a defined formation and the majority of their starters set in stone. A handful of players rotate in and out due to fitness or tactical adjustments, but historically, seven or eight starters have been known before lineups were released.
However, loyalty to players in the face of all evidence that change is needed has also been the USWNT’s downfall on several occasions. And, as noted earlier, their 2015 World Cup win came as the result of a dramatic change. They didn’t start playing their best soccer until they figured out that they needed to move Lloyd up the pitch and bench one of their out of form strikers for Brian.
Is the best way forward for the USWNT to decide on a core and stick with them, or to err on the side of picking the players who are in the best form? That might be the toughest question that a national team coach has to answer.
What’s next?
The USWNT has two scheduled friendlies against Russia in April, then a match away to Norway in June. It’s possible they could add another away match during that European trip. There should be games against Brazil and Japan at some point, but no details have been given on those.
