    Ah, just that they were effectively gifts for me, but under the guise of being for the whole family. Stuff like Brainlord, Ogre Battle, SimCity (our PC was... not capable, at the time) etc. that my siblings and parents obviously weren't into. To clarify, the gifts that were labeled for me were...

    I want to say FF3(6) and Chrono Trigger were both like 80 dollars back in the 90s. I remember because my dad had like a mental number of around $200 for the total price of the "family" things he would purchase around Christmas. The years those came out we only got like 3 SNES games, while...

    Chrono Odyssey

    Honestly it looks (especially that crafting UI/inventory screen) a lot like New World mixed with like Vindictus, but with much edgier/better graphics. Very Elden Ring-ish vibe. Looks good; lots of FFXIV FATE/Warhammer Public quest vibes (I guess technically Rift as well) and the fact it's...

    2024-2025 NBA Season - In Bronny We Trust

    A ton of chicks who are tat'd up have those shitty chest pieces. Like birds or hearts and stuff. They look absolutely terrible, almost completely across the board, but it has nothing to do with them having tits. Griner's tattoos are the least damning thing about them.

    Retard Dumping Ground

    Why did Mist get Rickshawed? I was away for a couple of years so didn't know this had happened. Did they admit to killing their mother or something?

    2024-2025 NBA Season - In Bronny We Trust

    If she's an actual biological female, she's the least woman to ever woman. If she's not just a dude pretending, she's probably one of those internal testes types who is at least definitely not a biological woman by definition.

    Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles

    FF9 was kind of largely my last "favorite" Final Fantasy that isn't an mmo. The characters were goofy but colorful and interesting, and the story was kind of cool right up until the literal final battle (Necron is still the most wtf boss I have come across) and I really liked the ATB system and...

    Final Fantasy 16

    Honestly, it's a good game. It's just not as final fantasy as I would like my final fantasies to be. Had a lot of cool features and I really liked the Eidolon fights, but all things being equal I want a return to turn-based combat. DQ11 is still the best JRPG of the last decade for me; I like...

    No no, I'm not saying that people buy games because they are sad for the developers. I'm saying the narrative is "be sad for the developers." That's all.

    I'd prefer it otherwise, but there's no stopping the price increase now. The market is primed for it. We have this sob story about developers being let go and nobody cares about devs and .... insert whatever you want here. And then there's audience capture. Some Nintendo people are akin to...

    He passed before I was into my mid/late 20s, and my family was very traditional in that you don't ask questions of your elders, ever. It was one of those marriages (both Austrian, emigrated here quite literally during the height of WW2) where the woman basically just did whatever she was told...

    Yeah; Cory is good but Merab is just physically more impressive. I can't see that fight going much different than how O'Malley did, except with a bit more defense/scramble during the inevitable takedowns. I can feel the UFC brass blood pressure rising with O'Malley being outclassed so badly...

    Persona 4 Revival

    P4 is one of my favorite in the series (P5 is mechanically superior but I liked the small town setting a lot more in P4) However, I've already beaten the game six ways from Sunday. Will likely check it out if it's day 1 Gamepass freemium, otherwise likely pass.

    Ahsoka

    My friend Darryl and I saw Alexander opening night not knowing what we were in for. As we got out we saw people leaving the spongebob movie and we both said "Should have seen the fucking spongebob movie instead" (paraphrasing) at almost the same time. God that movie still pisses me off.

    Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles

    I remember playing Vagrant Story around when it released and not quite grasping the weapon system right away. Like I could match the timing and keep chains going to infinity, but the weapon would start doing 1 damage after like the third hit. I got distracted by something else almost...

    Boy, Sean O'Malley certainly lost a lot of his marketability this weekend. Just completely outclassed by Merab. Kayla looking to bring in extra tickets for certain though. Good grab by the UFC.

    Ahsoka

    I definitely first noticed her because she was nude and stalking towards the camera in Alexander. Kind of grabs your attention. Shortly after I saw Sin City and was like "yeah she's hot." I think she's generally fine as an actor, but yeah Star Wars writing hasn't been great in the last...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I remember DAOC release; we had a few raiders (notably our rogues and rangers. Of course.) that basically vanished for a few weeks. They came back saying the game was good/etc but they wanted to be in more constructed/complicated encounters. PVP is mad gay. It's just dudes slapping their...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Curious what that means in relation to the game itself. Does fully funded mean that if there are setbacks/whatever, that everyone still gets paid until it overcomes the hurdle? Do they have a specific release date in mind? Or is this like an investor who is just going to continue dumping...

    Dune Awakening

    I think like was mentioned previously is that there are constant iterations going on so the shader stuff is likely dependent upon how often you log in during a given day. Anybody still using a HDD for anything other than storing porn or movies streaming companies delisted in 2025 is doing it...

    You could basically completely mitigate that problem by going into the harvesting tree if I remember correctly. it's been a couple of years since I've played, but Star Metal+ stuff was like you described, basically a wash or worse if you didn't have any points into the harvesting crap. You...

    Both AOC and Enshrouded have that heavy frontload of shaders. Usually it's just the first startup after a new build, but I think Enshrouded does it every time. Seems DA is doing that as well.

    I mean, aside from the story of Fallout 4, they have several good games worth of material to work with. The Last of Us had a good game/story and then a mediocre game/fucking horrible story. They are working with very different baselines. Also holy shit I didn't realize that Goggins had Keith...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    It's honestly a lot of things and not a simple situation like laid out. The people in the flooring store are lazy, because they are likely just kind of watching the building while they get 3-4 customers a day. There just isn't enough business for the most part to really justify a brick and...

    It's been a long time since I did the 24 mans in Stormblood, but I distinctly remember going "Oh they're just using the names" as I worked through them. Zero connection to FFT aside from name and some absolutely minor flavor. The Nier stuff was a bit more relevant and related, but yeah the...

    Dune Awakening

    It's almost like the developers have never actually played a "competitive" winks game before. I wonder if those same types of structures show up in a game where your endgame isn't based around PVP and who effectively monopolizes certain resources the fastest. Who knows! /s I played on a...

    I get what you're saying, and I largely agree. But this is a fantasy world with her coming up against things that would realistically be blocking her hits, at full speed, occasionally.

    Ah does the auction house require people to get the resources from the Deep Desert to auction or is the auction house some kind of npc thing where you have to bid against other players or something to get the resources? You know, good ole buyer vs. other buyer that definitely isn't pvp *winks*

    Dune Awakening

    I think it comes down to if the early experience is the only experience or not. There's zero chance this game doesn't have some major price drops before real game altering/adding DLC comes out. It's Funcom. Whenever the first DLC in the season (jfc I wish companies would stop releasing shit...

    it's about the attempt at dishonesty. If you're a dude and you're pretending to be a girl, it's pretty shitty of you to try and lead people on as if you were a girl. Wasn't cool in vidya games; isn't cool in youtube videos. It's definitely not about simping; it's about the concept that...

    Oh I wasn't saying run locally. I mean like how they have AOC servers setup in g-portal. Currently they let you have "private servers" that are basically default with a couple of toggles but you still have a shared always on PVP deep desert with other "private servers." Which isn't a private...
