    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Quite a few years ago I bought a USB adapter that let me use my favorite controller (PS1, no analog sticks, dpad is four individual buttons, fight me) and with that I don't have any problems using the computer for old games.

    I don't know anything about swinging a weapon I just like this picture. It does sum up some of the early sentiment.

    I'd like to see what the gem looks like at 20 and beyond. The cooldown per charge is going to need to really come down for it to feel good but it probably does.

    If we're just making wishes than sign me up for some immediate AA auto grant action. Vaniki got me hooked on that.

    The writing was on the wall when they started cutting deals with Walmart, Target, Amazon, etc. for product at deals better than your LGS could get.

    Path of Exile

    I get why they didn't do that. We just did that with the Lake. You interact with the map mechanic, it takes a tiny bit of time to take your two or three moves and away you go. You pick later when you do your completed Lakes. If this was setup in a similar fashion as presented you'd basically...

    The very first thing I thought during the trailer was it was the Hall of Grandmasters league but fortunately that was not the case.

    With all the Tiktok shit and popularity of prank videos it's the right move to not participate in anything that doesn't pass the smell test.

    EQ TLP - Next Server Ideas

    I've wanted Path of Exile style challenges/achievements plus rewards for years and I hope that doesn't die with Vaniki. They've already got everything they need to implement seasonal rewards. They just need to do it.

    What did you just read?

    An aging revolutionary is arrested, imprisoned and put on trial by the machine he worked his entire life to bring to power. It was really good. Despite it being fiction it makes an interesting little companion piece to the Gulag Archipelago. You know how in 1984 and Brave New World we get...

    Indiana Jones 5 (2020)

    From right after Ford got injured on set Anna could be Helena's nickname making it all still fit! Thinking about it more I want Indy to also shit himself right before dying, something similar to the death of Chef in South Park.

    Fits with how extensive the ad campaign has been. You don't blow a giant sack of pushing the thing with the tiny print run.

    Indiana Jones 5 (2020)

    You'd have to watch the previous episode that spawned that one. The gist of it is that they kill off Indy and Strong Woman takes the mantle for a new franchise. One version of the script had time travel with Old Indy and Young Indy meeting each other and dying and getting replaced. It's all...

    Rick and Morty

    It's hard to serious it up when Rick comedically executed two villains a few minutes earlier. I liked half of the episode which is the baseline for me with the show these days.

    I picked the wrong league to poison minions I guess. A fucking mountain of my damage is tied to curses and it mostly evaporates on ubers.

    Chameleon Robe, that's the ticket. I knew there was an item you could have at that point in the game that made him use Monk techniques instead.

    When I popped in to his stream one of the "so and so is the first to whatever" was for maps. That's eight hours for someone who really knows what they're doing. It looks like the meta is to use a combination of skills that have some kind of lasting effect/duration or traps? Minion pile, cold...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    Mischief was kind of experimental and it was a wild success. Vaniki was experimental and it wasn't. I have to hope that the success of Mischief far outweighs Vaniki's underperformance and they continue to try new things.

    Path of Exile

    Essences were bananas, Scourge/Beyond mobs fucked ass, Chaos resist was important more/sooner, different mods or mod combinations could fuck your shit up requiring you to be strong enough to overcome big resistances or near immunities, that kind of shit. It was just rougher all around. I had so...

    I've complained about this before but I'm 40/40 now for Lake of Kalandra so I'm going to complain about it again. This league put an unreasonable amount of pressure on characters to get their shit together. I got fucking railed by showing up with a "I'll figure it out as I go" attitude regarding...

    So Dan Harmon wanted to talk about writing and used an episode of a cartoon show as the medium with which to do so? I liked it more than the train episode and in general it had more bits I liked than I didn't like but I'm just never sure what we're doing with these.

    What game(s) had a final area/boss that ruined the game for you?

    My only completed run of that game I was using most of the no leveling setup (where you junction no random encounters during your first hour) and it was still a pain. Even without doing random fights that game is grindy as hell. Related to that - This year I was trying to finish up my first...
