    Yeah, same thing happened to me early in the video when he was showing PC games from the 1970's like Moria. I recognized some of the footage from when I was VERY small, and unlocked a distant memory of playing Moria (or at least looking at it) on a school library computer at like 4 years old...

    Not sure I believe anything that random guy is saying about being experimented on, but if grey aliens are real, it wouldn't surprise me at all if they could cross-breed with humans. Have always gotten the vibe that they either made us, or ARE us from further up the evolutionary ladder (i.e...

    I definitely regret missing out on getting a lifelong sub for $200 or whatever it was during the super-limited time it was for sale. Found out about it, was gonna get it, then poof no longer available.

    That was another thing, they made Shinra responsible for the reactor explosion being so intense rather than letting Avalanche actually be a morally questionable shade of grey, "ends justify the means" faction. Good luck running OG PS1 FF7 on the Switch, I'm not sure if the hardware can keep up...

    Did he? My bad. I don't remember seeing any corpses of regular people on the ground, just lots of Shinra troopers. Maybe I'm wrong. I might be wrong about Dyne's victims, but I listed a ton of other things that I thought were unnecessary changes and I don't think I was wrong about the lion's...

    Just thought of something else. Everyone Dyne kills in the Gold Saucer is a Shinra trooper. In the original he killed a bunch of innocent people, which illustrated how far gone he was. This time they sanitized that by basically having him kill a bunch of the bad guys. Which makes the reactions...

    Personally I have more disdain for Japanese anime-style games with low camera angles and schoolgirl panty shots than I do for anything from Sweet Baby Inc. (Don't get me wrong, they're both lame as hell)

    What are you playing?

    Funny because I used that very strat to steamroll Ogre Battle back in the day, and was asking on here if it was feasible in UO. Sounds like it totally is. The game should be pretty much a cakewalk then.

    Oh shit, THAT is the "BFG 9000" from back in the day. Never knew what it was actually called. I think you could do all kinds of 'sploiting with it.

    This means your level 5 Origin-bots could also be bound in other places and used as a death-shortcut to get around. Basically doubling your available town-warps. Run the DE down to Oggok and bind there and you can skip the Ogre bot. Basically you can create your own super-ghetto version of PoK.

    What is a Breezeboot's Frigid Gnasher? 500,000 man-years have been spent playing this game, longer than all of known human history and pre-history. Warrior being the most-played class kinda explains a lot. Like why so many people left for WoW.

    In that case my 200k rat ear collection is probably obsolete now since they're buyable from a merchant again due to the passage of eras. So basically have to sub for a month to get the potion claim. No big deal. Goblet of Adventure II isn't the best though, 25% over 8 hours. Aren't 50% pots...

    Who was it in FF16 who offed herself? Was it the evil queen? I'm drawing a blank on FF16 in general but I vaguely remember this.

    That's a real image right there. I think it's pretty likely that "the meek will inherit the Earth" and not know what to do with it.

    'Nother persona question: Is there anything stopping you from switching personas to a caster, going to a place and binding yourself there (like the Seb bubble), origining, switching back to your non-caster main, and gate potioning back to the new bind point?

    How do these anniversary EXP potions work? Just log in on any character and it'll give you a /claim for it? I assume you only need to log in once per account. I should probably get that done.

    Words to live by, but social media gave everyone a voice, dictated that they take a side and have an opinion, etc. Now all of those tendencies have bled over into the real world and nobody knows how to shut the fuck up anymore.

    Yeah, wood elf covers that too. So how many of these persona do you have by default, 3? Only need to buy 2 slots, or 1 if your main is one of the five races Xevy mentioned. Obviously dru/wiz have to do less. If you do all of those I don't think bard is really all that useful after all for runs...

    At some point (Miragul server I think) I tried doing a heroic 85 necromancer to go do some soloing and whatnot. Was getting beaten down by DB mobs in New Feerott just trying to get the J5 merc tasks done, while I tried to figure out all the AAs and everything for 60-85 that I wasn't familiar...

    Alright, so -Level 5 Bard persona with a drum for running somewhere out-of-the-way, preferably with a centralized Origin like Freeport (though even this is sounding situationally useful at best since you can just do an Origin persona) -Level 5 Iksar persona (if not Iksar) for switching over...

    Persona 3 Reload

    P3 doesn't really go insane until like the last 10% IIRC. For the most part I found the main story to be on the slow side since I wasn't into the sim aspects as much as the dungeons/combat and spent most of my time doing Tartarus for that reason.

    Yeah I'm pretty sure the 200k rat ears I hoarded are on Mischief, because I did it right before they made merchants stop selling them. It was a great leveling route at the time. Mischief was well after Phinny and they still gave good exp when they were removed from merchants. You might be...

    So basically just...PoK and Nexus? Where do you persona-change in Classic-Velious? At least in DoN+ you can do this in the Guildhall and then port to where you're going. Sounds like they drained much the usefulness out of the concept and basically just made it a way to share flags and nodrop...

    TBH I'd be happy with people like that just being completely irrelevant, like they used to be. Nobody pays attention to them, nobody cares, let them do whatever it is that they do in their little corner of society. Though her attitude got so pervasive that it's no longer irrelevant, it should be.

    It was a while ago, I don't remember anything that happened in those games except that I think Superman went evil at some point and eye-beamed people. Fighting game stories aren't generally the most engaging, though the modern MK/Injustice types have elevated fighting game stories quite a bit.

    As in, any town zone? Too bad you can't switch anywhere, but any town zone is workable. Still say a level 5+ Bard with a drum is a very good idea to Persona. Pre-mounts it'll help a lot with getting from town to town. Be kind of funny to have to duck into Neriak on the way to Sol A/B just to...

    I'm guessing buffs (SoW) aren't shared, given the level reset and all. Might be smart to Persona a Bard and get them to level 5 (or higher) with a drum for travel purposes, then switch back once you reach the zone you're running to.

    Yeah I'm not sure if people know how BAD berserkers actually are early-era. Most get them to 65 quick once they're available, PL, twink up, whatever the case may be. Zerker starting at level 1 from scratch, until about level 60, is terrible. The flimsiness of a rogue and the low DPS of a...

    That's a pretty easy mistake to make since the cooldown refreshes before the ability fires, plus I think it's the only "delayed fire" ability. I imagine a lot of people do that without knowing it, thinking it's just a basic DD. But yeah, Bellow damage is really low until later expansions anyway...

    If we're talking about a group and not a box situation, 3 rogues could work (maybe). Ping pong the aggro around, 2 out of 3 backstabbing at any given time. Warrior DPS is so abysmally bad in classic/kunark that if we're looking at those eras I think that would be the worse of the two. Take ages...

    There's been some talk about what the best 3-box combinations are. What's the WORST 3-box combination? Like absolute worst? I'm gonna say 2 rogues and a wizard. Wizard ends up tanking everything while the rogues backstab, no heals. Then again even this group could probably win fights without...

    I mean, SKs need to be able to tank as backup regardless of era. Also anyone who is multiboxing better have their tank be their raid character unless they want to get stomped by group content. Knew a guy who mained a Bard and had a box Warrior he wanted to eventually be his main, but all his...

    Didn't see any mushrooms near those areas, but yeah, that's probably the answer. Just got tired of running around and continued the MQ. Anyone know the answer to this? Mainly wondering if you can go back and do everything in Chapter 13 via chapter select.
