    Final Fantasy: Record Keeper - Mobile Gaming Cash Grab

    Finished all of the Elites. This round wasn't too bad. None really gave me issues. I wasn't super thrilled when I got Zidane's Butterfly Sword during SSB Celebration but after playing around a bit I love it. Zidane is a Thief and is capable of some crazy damage for those of us without a...

    NFL 2016 Offseason Thread - Fins' Quest to Defend Their Crown

    I won't disagree that Cleveland is a shithole but, to be fair, Manziel had a drinking problem before coming here. I see Cleveland going two routes with the Draft. Go QB and take Paxton Lynch or Jared Goff. If you go that route, personally, I'd still start Josh McCown next year and have him...

    Yunalesca took me a few S/Ls to get. 3 times in a row she Counter-Silenced Yuna in the first 5 attacks. I had one attempt where she was at 10% but was in her super haste mode, had drained all of my abilities with Osmose and hit me with that AOE attack that can confuse your characters. 3 of...

    Johnny Football's days in Cleveland are numbered. Reports coming out of the Browns HQ is that they've had enough of him. It sounds like he wants to go to Dallas and Dallas thinks he'd work out for them.

    Yep. Browns are done. New coach and a new GM incoming with the #2 draft pick as incentive to try and salvage this travesty of a team. Now just need the Jets to win so Pittsburgh doesn't get into the playoffs.

    Final Fantasy: Record Keeper - Mobile Gaming Cash Grab

    All of the free 5 star weapons are not true 5 stars. They're like 4.5 stars with the downside of not being able to combine them (maybe we'll get another next year but that's a very long term investment). Some are better than others but they're designed to fill in holes and not replace existing...

    Finally got around to my Beginners Draw. Got a Betrayal Sword from the draw. It's not great but it's my best VIII synergy physical weapon so I'll take it. Ended up taking Valkyrie just as planned.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    We saw it again earlier today. I liked it better the second time. I was able to sit back and enjoy the movie without geeking out every five minutes and I was really able to pay attention. My Rey theory is that she is Han and Leia's daughter. Han doesn't know because he skipped town when...

    The worst part of all of the events and bonuses we've gotten is going to be the low that sinks in when we go months without. People have gotten used to Mythril and other rewards being thrown at us every day and that's going to dry up. I'd expect a small Valentine's Day bonus of some sort but...

    The iOS ports for III, IV, V, and VI weren't that bad. They were very playable on a Tablet. The controls took some getting used to but weren't that bad. VII though is another story. They tried to recreate a full PSX controller on screen and it's clunky and distracting. I'm hoping they...

    The Big Short: Pitt, Bale, Carrell do the subprime crisis

    We saw this today instead of Concussion (thankfully). It was really good. Steve Carell was awesome in it. I was working in the banking sector at the time of the crash and those not fun times. I never did figure out how to get in on the big banker bonuses that they were, apparently, handing...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    On one hand I think it was a dick move by Disney to not include George Lucas's name anywhere. A simple Star Wars: Created by George Lucas would have been the right thing to do. On the other hand, Lucas is being a colossal douche about being SELLING the franchise and being butt hurt about not...

    Saw this earlier today: Final Fantasy IX is coming to PC and mobile | The Verge Final Fantasy IX coming to iOS, Android and PC. I'm really hoping the iOS port is better than VII. I just really didn't like the control overlay compared to earlier iOS versions.

    Omega is only 1 stamina. The Badge for beating him is really nice. It took me two Stops being honed but it worked. It was a very RNG fight but that Badge is really good and worth trying to get.

    Exdeath was a very fun and well designed fight. But it's showing just how critical having certain relics is becoming. I would not have wanted to try it without my own Wall and it sucks how important those two relics are (SG and Thyrus). But I really enjoyed it. I S/Led twice. First time I...

    I'm just bored with the game. I just don't enjoy it the way I used to. It's not the meta or anything specific and there are no hard feelings or anything. But I've been playing since Closed Beta (late 2013 I think). I used to make sure I do my daily quests every day but there are times I let...

    Good choices. You will pretty much always be able to fit Cloud into a group and Rinoa's a great choice for the second. With Valkyrie and the ability to get to Level 80 she is going to be one of the best BLMs for a long time. If you manage to get a third I'd recommend Tidus because his 3rd...

    Were you able to unlock Rinoa's MC2? If so she will last you a VERY long time with Valkyrie. A Universal BLM Rod is better than Valkyrie but since I wasn't able to get one I'm taking it just to make that hole smaller.

    Dropped everything I had on Banner 3. It was the banner where all the character specific relics were really good for me. In the end I pulled three 5 stars. Two non-soulbreak swords (SOLDIER Sword from VII and a Zantetsuken from VI which I was able to combine up to a 7 star). The only...

    I think I could have phrased that better. I'm just your average overweight gaming nerd with a desk job and want to get more healthy. I knew I was overweight but the last time I went to the doctor's office I really didn't like what I saw when I stepped on the scale. But I'll never be the guy...

    Depending on where you are at on the Daily Login there are, roughly, 29 Mythril between. Ow and the last day of Banner 5. This includes 10 from Orbfest 4 and 5 and another 10 from the FF V event next week. That puts me at 99 Mythril on the last day of Banner 5 unless we get some bonus Mythril...

    For someone like me this is the worst Brawl ever. If there is an RNG component I will always be on the wrong side of it. Watching my opponent play back to back Legendaries 4 turns in a row is crippling. Or my opponent who played two Rhonins and followed up with Antonidas when my response was...

    It's always a consolation prize getting something like that but the Red Armlet isn't terrible. Gloves, wrists and bracelets (all the same category) are pretty solid. They give a good increase to ATK, MAG and MND so they're not as sexy as Organics or Cardinal but I dare say you will get more...

    Of the remaining two I'd say that the VIII Behemoth is an easier fight but he does hurt. Especially when he starts to chain cast Meteor. But if you can get him Blinded early on and get Magic Break(down) and mitigation up than you have a strong chance of beating him. It just might be RNG...

    I still think the Sand Worm is the easiest of the 4. This would be my generic strategy: Take Wall as your Roaming Warrior. Sentinel Grimoire or Stoneskin II (Tyro or Y'shtola). Cast the first right away to buy yourself time to get the rest of your mitigation up. Recast Wall when he hits...

    If you don't have Wall of your own (Sentinel Grimoire or Thyrus) than you should strongly consider pulling on the current banner and/or tonight's banner. With that said chasing a single Relic is a good way to be disappointed. I've had way too many 11x pulls with no five stars myself so I know...

    Got my Omega Badge. Not doing that fight again. I used the Stop Lock strategy and it was still close. On my victory run I had 4 Stops miss in a row. He was really close to dead so I kept going and luckily killed him but I hate RNG fights like this one.

    Priest is, by far, the most infuriating to play against. It's not fun at all. They don't just kill your stuff but they steal it all and get all the benefits of it. I don't feel safe playing anything against them and then they Thoughtsteal my good stuff. And so many Priest decks aren't...

    The 110 isn't too bad if you have some Synergy and hones. The bosses don't have a ton of health but they do put some damage out. The big Worm from X is probably the easiest. It has two vulnerabilities (Ice and Water) and it's damage isn't too bad. Just get a Wall Roaming Warrior and hit it...
