    JRPGs

    Alright, I put it on the list. There are only a few things I want that I don't have (this, Timespinner, Crisis Core) so it's pretty high on the list.

    JRPGs

    I'm probably wrong, but Chained Echoes kinda looks/sounds like those OG Lunar games. Those tended to have a few major difficulty spikes too. I remember a bunch of RPGs from the mid to late 90's that had one or several battles in them that were much harder than anything else in the game and...

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    That's a big part of communism: Force an agenda pretty much everywhere to create the illusion of consensus. 5% of the population believes something, but if it is pushed often and loudly enough, eventually the perception becomes that 50% of the population believes that (or more). Then it's on us...

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    ^Not saying there was anything wrong with Harley Quinn outfits there, worded it kind of wrong. What I'm saying is that HQ is clearly a role model for some reason. Yes, the comparison falls flat. Dwayne is supposed to be a much bigger deal now than Chris Evans was in 2011. He's comparing his...

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    A Harley Quinn / Poison Ivy movie could be really good. They had some good rapport in the Animated Series, and anything that draws more elements from that series is fine by me. That show was a great thing to grow up with. The only downside is that after such a movie drops, men aren't gonna be...

    Witcher 3

    I normally play everything on 60 FPS performance mode on PS5 because 30 now looks weird and retro to me. However for this one I'm wondering if I'm missing out by not going for higher quality and ray tracing. This game has great light effects. I dunno, I wish it wasn't even a choice. I went 60...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    All four White Wizards at level 31 with all spells, all that's left is the TOF. Defeated Kary with Fear spam, defeated Kraken by using INV2 four times so all his big attacks missed. Tried using Bane on Tiamat but it never worked, ended up just blasting him with Holy since I had it by then. Very...

    At this point, the 3 ROH PPV matches between FTR and the Briscoes are probably my 3 favorite matches of the year. Been a rough year for AEW and a lot of that was ROH dragging it down, but man does ROH deliver on its rare 2022 PPVs. Looking forward to the two entities being more separate in 2023...

    That kid sneaking on stage is...something alright. The From guys probably assumed he was part of the event and the event guys probably assumed he was the kid of one of the From guys (despite being an entirely different ethnicity). Reminds me of situations where groups would have a big meetup at...

    The Callisto Protocol (Survival Horror)

    So wait, what's the story here with this coming out so close to Dead Space Remake? At first I thought this was an independent studio copying the Dead Space formula and competing with them, but now I find out the guy who made this is the same guy who made the original Dead Space. So does he have...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Yeah, Sabin's scenario is hilariously long compared to the other two. Man, that part of the game made such an impression on me as a kid. I was just fascinated by the environments and music and everything else, especially Narshe. First time I played the game, I got completely stuck at the Narshe...

    Come on, the girl power is fine. She's a lot easier on the eyes than that Zagreus dude. I think it's still an automatic purchase and will probably be just as good as the first.

    So far we have one of six! And it sounded like Miyazaki wanted to announce an Elden Ring expansion while he was on stage, saying that they weren't done with it yet. But he also said he wants to move on to new projects, so I'm wondering if that means no Bloodborne 2. I'd also accept a Bloodborne...

    Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon (FromSoftware)

    I played the first one on PS1 a LOT, the soundtrack was incredible. But then when I replayed it on PS3 there was hardly any music in it. I think the stage music wasn't being recognized or something. I listened to the soundtracks of AC2 and AC3, IIRC AC3's was all sad and emotional like the game...

    "Fix What You Broke" I can smell the Marxism dripping off of this one. I mean Bioshock Infinite was already flirting with seizing the means of production and whatnot. Ah whatever, I'm out of it right now. I hope it's as good as Bioshock.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Yeah, it's massively (NPI) unimportant. I don't even know why I posted that video except that it had a really hot thumbnail. I don't care what her boobs look like in one scene and I don't really think it's an agenda so much as just "that's how it looks" I don't think FF7 Presents: FF7 Crisis...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Well, that's why I posted the picture. She was busty as a tween or a kid in the flashbacks and they changed it. It's not like this is the first time we're seeing her as a 16 year old and we're complaining that she doesn't have a big rack. In any case, in the grand scheme of things, this is...

    Linked for the thumbnail Looks like Tifa's boobs have been vastly downgraded for Crisis Core. Well, she IS supposed to be a lot younger there, like 16. IDK though, her character model looks pretty terrible from the neck down regardless, even aside from that. Edit - Looks like they were way...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    Yuffie also has some good fanservice and references for Dirge of Cerberus fans. ........well, Dirge of Cerberus players. So I expect DoC to get mixed in with the FF7R canon going forward and for Wutai to be a lot more fleshed-out. Good video, I watched all couple hours of it. Guy totally...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    I'm doing it, I'm playing Four White Mages finally. On NES of course. Marsh Cave and Astos were the parts I was most worried about. Got the unlucky roll of four Piscodemons. I basically spam Ruse on everyone until they've all got two layers of it, then just spam attack for a few minutes and...

    Retro Multiplayer Gaming Night - Gauging Interest for 2023.

    I should probably do stuff like this... dammit I'm in! I don't have any of those old PC games though. I've got like, Warcraft 3 and Elder Scrolls on PC and the rest of what I have is Switch or PS5. So if there are console game days I'll jump in. Feel like Elden Ring might be a good one for that...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I think this arena update is technically a DLC, yes. However it isn't a "DLC expansion" in the way people usually think of them when you say DLC, ala Ashes of Ariandel and The Ringed City. So that's probably why the difference of opinions. This is a nice DLC update but we're still waiting for...

    Yeah, I agree. I like Fire Emblem 3 through 8, but 8 is a notable step down. I think they reached their apex with 6 and 7, maybe. I didn't play too much of 4 though and I hear that one is another high point.

    How do you deal with someone's suicide?

    A new spin on this, turns out the guy she was with now was really toxic and verbally abusive to her and went out of his way to make her feel miniscule. So now I want to put him in the hospital. But I only have one side of it and for all I know she was toxic to him too. Now knowing that her last...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Anyone doing stuff with the new DLC? I dunno when I'll get around to it because the timing is bad. Hoping that the arena stuff has a lot to it, maybe the 3 arenas all have different things to do or something like that. I heard there might be other new things snuck into the game as well.

    I didn't like Fire Emblem: Three Houses either. I like the old FEs. Like, the first ten, the remakes of 1 and 2 (Shadow Dragon and Echoes: Shadows of Valentia) and that's about it. So the last FE game I actually liked was about 12 years ago. The SNES and GBA ones (3 through 8) were the pinnacle...

    How do you deal with someone's suicide?

    I was right about the grief hitting me harder the next day, it's been a rough one. Trying to figure out if I should message some of her old friends on Facebook and let them know, since she was so out of touch with people and there's nothing on there letting anyone know. Course I'll leave out the...

    The Callisto Protocol (Survival Horror)

    I was considering giving this a whirl since it's short and linear (pluses for me, just want to get through the game). However inventory space being severely limited is such a turn-off for me. The reason it took me ages to get through some of the Resident Evils, got so tired of trying to organize...

    How do you deal with someone's suicide?

    I know we've got people on here who have had to deal with this. My long-time best friend (and ex-GF, almost married her back in 2016) killed herself. I'd been out of touch for most of the past year and now I feel terrible like I should have been more present for her. I had no idea what a tough...

    Yeah, pretty much. Only devs I'd keep around are Fromsoft, Square-Enix, Nintendo and their subsidiaries for Mario/Metroid/Zelda, and Sega for the Yakuza series. Isshin is going to be really good.

    I want to see Fromsoft do one of those Marvel-like "here's everything we're releasing for the next 3 years" announcements. They're about the only company I care about seeing something like that from (besides Square-Enix). I'd also like to see FS wrap up their existing games that don't have...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I hear that. I don't know how people can stand grouping in WoW either. When I play EQ, pretty much every random group I join can be expected to show basic competency, maybe even some impressive skill. If I join a terrible group that doesn't know their ass from a hole in the ground, it's a rare...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Kingsglaive was pretty awesome. Saw it before the game came out and I was beyond stoked. Looked like FF15 was going to be almost like a retelling of FF6, with the Empire and its bigwigs falling into the same categories (Iedolas = Gestahl, Ardyn = Kefka, Ravus = Leo, Aranea = Celes, Verstael =...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Well I never got around to buying DF and sorta lost all my motivation to play. At least I got the Shadowlands raids done right under the wire. No particular reason, WoW just isn't that interesting at this point. I'll try again later. One issue with the subscription system is that you kinda feel...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    Necron is a pain, so is Ozma. Now that I think about it, FF9 probably does have FF5 beat on difficulty because FF9 doesn't have classes you can optimize like you can with Neo Exdeath and Shinryu/Omega. One particularly rough fight that comes to mind is Yiazmat in FF12. I think that fight took...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    FF5 might be the best on gameplay out of the entire first 9 (not that 10 is better, but I tend to group 1-9 for comparison and consider 10+ to be a completely different era). FF6 is the best in most other areas and probably surpasses it overall. As a kid I once loaded up all my save files and...

    Final Fantasy 16

    I assume this is from Spain or Mexico? "anos" means years, so each of those numbers is indicating how old someone needs to be to see that particular thing. Kinda interesting that sexual intercourse is "14 and up" considering it's very 18+ here. Not surprising though because Latin societies...

    Wow, pretty much every map shown in that video isn't in the final game. Raises even more questions. I'm guessing the fortress in the screenshot isn't even a real area in the game, but a test arena they designed for showing off. Some of those maps look bigger than what's in the actual game...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Do you actually get stronger as Sekiro goes on? I remember it not having level-gains (outside of some mask you get in the lategame that lets you incrementally increase attack power). I could skip Lady Butterfly and go back later, except I'd just run into a wall with whatever other next boss I...
