    Final Fantasy: Record Keeper - Mobile Gaming Cash Grab

    I just got up through unlocking my 1st Chocobo. I pulled multiple Prime Numbers from the 1st two 10 pulls, a Marasume, and then also basically a 5* weapon for everyone. Just kind of clicking through screens at this point and trying to unlock features to see what is what. A couple of people from...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    What? lol I need to look some of this up. Been slowly playing through at night with newborn on my lap. The long term plan is to expose him to this early on so that by the time he’s 13 and the world has fallen apart he’ll be a savant mech warrior. Like Robot Jox.

    One Piece

    I’ve suffered through most of the 1st season of the anime and, not having the luxury of watching the animated first, it feels like they did a good job editing down the live action to the necessary. There was a ton of ground to cover and the drops / changes aren’t too bad from my point of view...

    Dungeons & Dragons (2022)

    We watched it last night during dinner and really enjoyed it. My wife kept asking questions about D&D and I had to explain to her that yes, I am a nerd but wasn’t a D&D nerd. Then she gave me the ole “oh I just figured it was all the same nerd stuff.” Thanks babe!

    Not really? You can farm money to buy all the components and have whatever setup you want (not that you need it since you can sell right back). Components are still locked behind progress so you can’t buy everything up front. OST Chips are locked behind arena which unlock over the course game...

    One Piece

    After finishing the 1st season it does seem as if there’s way too much scope here for them to cover. My interest makes me want to know more about the world but it’ll never be addressed in live action because the thing will get canceled inevitably.

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    It really only took me about 15 minutes yesterday when I called. $20/m isn't $0 but if it gets my wife HGTV, Food Network, Magnolia, and whatever else that is fine. If we find a free alternative we'll take it. But yeah, it really wasn't that bad at all and I was dreading it also. Drop stuff off...

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    Update from yesterday: The Comcast rep was pretty helpful and walked me through a few different scenarios and I ended up dropping down to the Xfinity Now service (NOW TV – Stream Live TV and On Demand Channels) just to retain a few channels that wife watches and that I do sometimes put on in...

    One Piece

    I have no familiarity with the anime or anything cartoon related, but from an outsider perspective this is.... not the worst? It is leagues above and beyond the Cowboy Bebop live action. If that was a -10 this is at least a 5. The first episode seemed like a mess, especially with no idea who...

    Ahsoka

    Watched first 3 last night and it seems Bette than most stuff Disney has put out recently, but it isn’t great. It wants to be great and seems like it could be close but doesn’t make it past mediocre. There were times where it was amazing just how bored I was even with stuff happening. The chase...

    I like my HVLP for some finishing on wood/small furniture but yeah, I was shocked at the volume needed to consistently run it. My pancake Dewalt compressor lasted about 30 seconds. Looking to upgrade to something larger, maybe just grab a 30 gallon Fortress from Harbor Freight to have around...

    I think the only D+ show that our 5 year old cares about is Spidey and Friends and Lionguard, and we basically refuse to watch Lionguard because it is so annoying, even as background filler. Is Bluey D+? Can’t remember, wife watches that more than kiddo. Anyways, we’ll be fine because that...

    We've been tossing it around for so long, with the new baby here and everything else happening I think we just said screw it go ahead. It'll be nice having the little bit of money back. Next step will be just trimming down the streaming services. Looking at the current bill it should be about...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    I’m sure that is fair. From’s success with the Souls games and Elden Ring puts them front and center for hype on any new release and broadens their reach. People may expect something Souls-like or may be interested in seeing what else the company has to offer. Armored Core has always been more...

    I do not know the immediate answer to your question, but after killing the BAWS on the Transport Helicopter mission (like the 4th selectable or something) my log updated with this. So I am x1 out of I don't know how many needed in that 3rd category. So possibly not a 1-for-1 kill to unlock system.

    Not understanding the difficulty with the tutorial boss. He killed me 1st time bc I had no idea what he does and it was 5 minutes in to learning the game.

    Warhammer 40,000 Novels

    I think for me, by about book 8? I got more comfortable with the shifts in writing. The POVs shift so much and the atmosphere of the Legions and the missions change so much that the difference in style didn’t hit as hard. If it were all continuous the whole way through it likely would have been...

    I’ll play it on Gamepass and then come here and post about how I don’t “get” these games but understand that some people love them. Then delete it and visit this thread three times a year wondering if I should give it another shot but ultimately deciding it isn’t worth it. Got a plan, at least.

    I just grabbed it today and during calls spent an hour fishing, walked out with a ton of money and unlocked a bunch of stuff. I'm with you though, initially avoided it b/c no interest in the weeb stuff but after putting some time in tonight it is actually really fun.
