I just think there are a lot of better reasons to nominate me, that's all. For example, I just finished Last of Us 2 and enjoyed it.

I haven't edited it since right after I first posted it. There's no continuous editing going on. Not sure why "GF" and "girlfriends" have been in quotes, is it that hard to believe such things exist? I've had plenty of feuds in my day, but I think this thing that's going on in here is easily...

Bouncing around during The Vid. WoW Shadowlands: Reached level 54, basically doing the short tour of the expansion, really not finding it that interesting. I'm giving it til the end of Dec, then quitting for another 5 years most likely. Ori and the Blind Forest: Really gorgeous-looking game...

Should tell my (D) friends and family that, they barely even want to talk to me nowayears because I no longer have anything good to say about their dogshit party.

I think FF3 2D is much better than the 3D version in general. Same goes for FF4. The 3D remakes just felt so...meh. The last couple areas of FF3 are so tough, and ended a lot of playthroughs. I think they're awesome if one isn't in a rush to get to the end. Gotta have a lot of HP to survive the...

I'm trying to defeat Hoss. She hadn't seen T1. I think we did indeed watch that one before T2, which is probably why she thought Robert Patrick was the good guy, he seemed like another Kyle Reese type character. ...................We did not watch T3

Yeah I might just reroll until I get four 40/70 characters and then stick with those. Would get to Geomancer way faster. If I grinded out an Orator to adjust people's stats down, that'd probably add like 2 hours to my setup time. Not sure if it'd be worth it to get people at, say, 10 Faith...

Just because women playing games with you is a foreign concept doesn't mean it is for everyone else. I mean it kind of is for me too, my whole point was how rare it is to play games with girls, that I don't really bother because they usually aren't into it, but that I at least give it a shot...

Them putting a no-return save point right before that fight is the problem, as has been said...one of the stupidest design blunders in an otherwise-great game that I've ever seen. No-return save points are probably the single biggest design misstep in a lot of otherwise-great RPGs, especially...

Yeah, I've tried at some point to see if every GF I've had was interested in games. It's often just the one time though. Start dating someone new, find out what they're into. If it is games, then cool because I play those. If not games, then fire up one she might like and see if she wants to...

Thinking about FFT again, I think FFT is to Tactics Ogre as Chrono Trigger is to Final Fantasy VI. FF Tactics and CT are streamlined, prettier, and simplified. They seem superior. Then TO and FF6, while earlier and less streamlined, turn out to be way deeper and more engrossing, just a little...

I think you mostly nailed the psych profile here actually. I've regressed a bit into the "teenage loner persona" that I graduated OUT of 15-20 years ago, mainly using COVID as the excuse because I needed some time to myself. I'm trying to drift away from the political radicalization but it's...

A) Wrong, during those rare occasions the chix had fun. Esp if it was Pokemon or some shit. They got bored and broke up with me because I couldn't commit and didn't want to have kids. B) Wrong, I've only lost like 25% of my extra money on the stock market. Which is still fucking horrendous, but...

Not sure, I remember a few of those... Monk + Shaman was like the most OP duo. I 'member that duo killing low-tier raid mobs and stuff in-era once Torpor existed. I think only SK+Shaman is better. I made Zerker+Shaman work for a while too. Yeah I noticed that too. Politics brings out all our...

Sounds interesting for my next time through. 5x Squire - This would be easy to gimp, just run around Shouting and Tailwinding. Not much appeal 5x Chemist - Guns + Auto-Potion is pretty OP and I could see these fights being on the redundant side. 5x Monk - Here's where it gets interesting...

Yeah, I like doing "all one class" runs in FF1. I've beaten the game with everything except 4x White Mage so far. 4x Thief was insanely rough for the first half. Like "do 1 damage all the time unless critical" rough. I can't imagine single-character runs in FFT go well. I'm guessing you mean 5...

I think this has the potential to be really good. That works, cause I got Witcher 3 Complete Edition digitally for $19 on a sale years ago. Getting the whole thing PS5-upgraded might inspire me to start the game over and give it a real go.

Been seeing a lot of FTX in the news, so it's gonna go up from all the publicity. I think it's the newest graphics card. Putting $10k on FTX stock as we speak Alright I guess I have to do the rest of them as per Lurkingdirk adding New Rules like he's Bill Maher or something: Soygen vs...

Whoa there. I seek out being alone because I have other shit to do! I could be, but I'd be depressed as fuck, and can't fix anything anyway, so I have to keep hope alive. Foler vs. Gavinmad Lithose vs. BrutulTM - Lithose is probably my "most missed poster" on here. Masakari vs. BoozeCube...

Yeah, I read it, but it was a bit ago. Don't remember seeing a map, so I'm following the story...yeah, good chance I'll outlevel everything and just be questing to unlock more places. It's a weird way to do an expansion, trying to just "see it" much less spending any kind of real effort on it...

Cool, when does flying unlock? Did a relatively brief session and flew through 51-54 in like an hour in Bastion. Want to check out Ardenweald next but I don't know how to get there, hopefully it isn't locked behind the Bastion questlines because I think I'll hit 60 before I finish any of...

Pretty much. In other news, Witcher 3 current-gen upgrade on December 14 and it's FREE to people who have the old version (not sure if that means digital only, or if it means regular game or Complete Edition or both). So I don't feel bad about waiting so long to get back to it now, or buying it...

Shadowlands so far: SO MUCH TALKING. Also I hate these microscopic new icons (lower right corner). Who thought it was a good idea to make the icons (that you click on the most) tiny and blend together? Looks like after today's patch, the levels will fly by, so I'll probably have to do most of...

It's not THAT bad. I'm going to guess it's around 30k Scoville at the most. Quite hot for fast food, shouldn't ruin your day though. Last time I was in NYC I got the Reaper Taco from Gringo's Tacos, found it inedible, and had a stomachache for like an entire day from the little bit of it that I...

Finally got around to this one. Well, Diablo roast beef, not chicken. Much hotter than the "Ghost Pepper" Whopper or the Hot Ones burger from Shake Shack. Like this one actually has legit heat. Nothing compared to some of the sauces I have at home, but well beyond what I expect from fast food...

Yeah, I did that on one playthrough too. Have to do it on the Wiegraf fight sometimes. Just run away from him Shouting until you can one-punch him, with Auto Potion offsetting the Lightning Sword attack when he catches up. Blows my mind that they put that super-punishing fight right after a...

Far as I'm concerned there should be two different tiers for game awards: Elden Ring, and Everything Else.

Yeah, FFT's lategame balance is off quite a bit because of Orlandu (and to a lesser extent Meliadoul). If you use him/them, the game is easymode. If you don't use him/them, the game is way hard. A couple years ago I replayed FFT with an "FF4 party". Paladin (Knight with White Magic), Dragoon...

I thought I was the only one who didn't get much out of Witcher 3. I liked Witcher 2 fine, then when I played Witcher 3...I dunno, it never clicked. Think I spent like 15 hours on it before I totally lost interest. Have heard ever since that it's incredible and I should give it another chance...

Probably. Just happened to play into everything the US government was already planning to do, and they memory-holed Building 7 instead of explaining it. Start pulling that thread and the whole thing has a ton of question marks.

I was at an old computer game store and picked up Warcraft 3 (Battle Chest version) with the expansion and the guidebook and everything. It's all a little beat up, but it was a steal at $15. Never played any of the original WC games but I'll certainly play this and Frozen Throne.

I think that: -UFOs are a thing that have been buzzing us for a long time. -Earth is a more interesting than average planet, by far. Most planets don't have life on them, much less complex life, much less the sheer diversity of biomes that we do. -UFO buzz-bys ramped up a lot in the late...

What's with the WoW logo these days? It's been pretty colorless for 3 straight expansions (which coincides with the game's decline in quality, IMO) Look how much more colorful and vibrant the original logo is in comparison.

Nope. The GBA one got remastered on PSP, so if you want to play a nice-looking version of that, grab FF2 on PSP. That was my favorite version of FF2. I still think the postgame content was better than the main game, and only the GBA/PSP versions have it. Pixel Remaster just goes back to the...

Pretty much gave up on Bayonetta 3. I got about a third of the way through the game but I just wasn't finding it interesting compared to other games in the series, probably because of the washed-out Switch graphics. Got to one level where I had to unlock a gate and wandered around lost for like...

I've said it before, anyone who has that "lol it's a 20 year old game lol" attitude is someone I immediately write off. ...apparently it's 30 now according to this guy. Well, in ten years there'll still be people on the message boards pretending they don't care about stuff or are "above" it all...

Another cool thing about TO is that the battles are much bigger-scale. FFT's five-character limit is a drag, especially when enemy groups start having 8+ enemies later on. TO it's more even.

Playing Bayonetta 3 right now. Still not crazy about it, but I'm about a third of the way through the main story so at least it won't take a super long time. Definitely should have gotten Tactics instead but hey.
