    Not only that, Charlotte was heavily-advertised as the star attraction of the house show in her home town. So she bailed on a show she was the main draw for. With her husband #AllElite and her father about to be, I'd say there's a big risk of her jumping except for one thing: WWE has plans for...

    Update. Turns out that Thief in FF1 Pixel Remaster isn't bad at all. At the beginning it's about as strong as Fighter was in the original (while Black Belt is stronger and Fighter is way stronger). So I grinded to level 5 or so flying through enemies with ease before I stopped. It was waaaaay...

    Yeah, I'll post a picture of my new salt collection some time soon. At least I won't need to buy salt again until 2025.

    What are the benefits of a salt lamp? I found one, missing the base. Was thinking of getting a base for it so it's actually usable as, ya know, a lamp. It looks kind of cool I guess. I'm equally likely to just give it away though. Edit: In other salt news, I spent $30 on salt in the last two...

    Yeah, how'd you know? Fleur de Sel is the other French one, not the one that smells vaguely like feet. Fleur de Sel is alright, not much different from Himalayan. Seems like the main difference between all of these is the texture, as was pointed out by someone earlier. Only one left to try is...

    I tried some more of the truffle salt from France. It...has a weirdly foot-like taste that I've noticed. It's slight, and almost unnoticeable. I've licked enough women's feet to know that taste though. Not sure if this is normal. Maybe the salt was mined by barefoot, sweaty French people. The...

    Just looking at a few posts from 2015. I feel like the original plan for 2014 in general was to have Batista win the Rumble, win the title from Orton at Wrestlemania, and fight Brock in an epic struggle at Summerslam. Bryan was a total afterthought. Once the audience rejected Batista, they added...

    GTA4 is the one I haven't played much of. Took a few whacks at it earlier this year and it's definitely a solid game, just hard to go back to PS3 visuals now. Also the lack of checkpoints in missions was already getting irritating just a couple hours in. Dying mid-mission and having to start the...

    Yeah, Brit is a fucking goddess now. I think a lot of it is her "give no fucks" attitude and smarmy heel-ness, which usually makes women hotter (see Trish Stratus) Also I'm starting to wonder if TNA has something on Tony Khan because I feel like AEW has done a lot more to help TNA than...

    Anyone watching AEW Rampage tonight? I really like the match graphics that they're using, clearly Street Fighter inspired. Sidenote, anyone know how to download a video thumbnail? Cause the thumbnail of this video is one of the best AEW shots I've seen lately and I'd send it to a few people...

    Looks like the channel Jay Myers Documentaries has poofed from Youtube. Just zero results for it. I don't think I have any direct links to a video to try. That was one of the more interesting channels out there about Illuminati and MKUltra connections to Hollywood etc and he used a lot of strong...

    Thanks for all the input. I got Celtic salt and Truffle salt (France, mined). They seem different enough from one another. The store had another French salt with a weird name that was more coarse, might go back and try that, just wasn't sure if it was too similar to Celtic salt that it'd be...

    In retrospect, I would have also thought it was wacky to play OG Souls2 again just for a plat. Not gonna lie, once I got it rolling and saw how bad the framerate was, I definitely had second thoughts on wasting time on it. Worked out, though.

    What part don't you believe? Whichever part it is, I could probably furnish proof via screenshots or something. I don't make shit up, bruh.

    No wonder my mom bought me like one game every 6 months when I was growing up. They were like $70 or $80! I remember Breath of Fire 2 in particular being one she just said no to because they priced it so high. Adjusted for inflation it's even worse. That's been striking me a lot the last few...

    So wait, is this how pet pulling works? I've always wondered about pet pulling, have only seen it in action a few times and it looked like it was just a pet attack, then pet bring the mob back situation, which didn't work when I tried it myself. Is the Taunt the thing that makes the pull work...

    I've always liked EQ's looseness (read: bugginess and exploitability), even things as simple as being able to levitate onto the Qeynos or (old) Freeport zone walls and look off into a big space of nothingness. One of the reasons I never got that into WoW is that it felt so restrictive in...

    This series is better if you like Akira Toriyama art designs and old-school RPG mechanics. If you weren't into XI I'm not sure if you'll like the others. VIII is probably the best one to give a shot to, though. I was like that too, not being able to control your character was just weird to me...

    What's the best salt I can get for meat? I don't mind spending some money if it's really good. I've gotten in the habit of cooking ribeyes lately, and every time is better than the previous time because I keep refining my technique. Of course, I don't need any sauce, just salt and sometimes...

    EQ TLP - Mischief (Free Trade / Random Loot)

    I never noticed the DoDH bump, probably because I never played a new character during those eras, just AA'd at 70. I do remember DoDH zones themselves being really good AA exp compared to previous expansions and chalked that up to the zones themselves having higher modifers. Never noticed the...

    I stand corrected, maybe Dragon Quest V wouldn't have been as much of a license to print money as I thought. It looks like RPGs didn't start becoming a successful genre in the U.S. until 1994 or 1995, and even then it was mainly Squaresoft that had said successes. Americans gave DW a try, but...

    I try to just get them from people I know. Though normally I have way way more than I need, I made the mistake of selling my entire stock, lul. I was going to take a break from the game a few weeks ago and then decided to make a monk instead. Right after the exp bonus ended. A real comedy of...

    IIRC GoD and TSS both have huge exp bumps. There are other smaller bumps elsewhere, apparently. However those two are the big ones. I joined Phinny right after GoD came out and the leveling was pretty fast compared to what it is on every server pre-GoD. 1-55 flew by. Then TSS bumps it to live...

    The sad thing is, these companies could have absolutely printed money in the mid-1990's by bringing over things like Final Fantasy 5, Dragon Quest 5, Star Ocean, etc.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    So you have to get another class to 50 and then you can class-change into RDM? I like what I've heard about how FF14 lets you level up multiple classes on one character. I've always wanted an MMO like that. I'll probably run Black Mage to 50 then switch.

    @Stifle This. You can use /melody to twist songs automatically and then you just have to worry about attacking mobs and/or pulling. Not sure if /melody is in from the start, pretty sure it is. Bard can also drop aggro better than any other class and run faster. In the later expansions bards can...

    Are the guides in the first post up to date, or are they circa 2012? One part references later expansions, but I want to be sure. The class guide in particular. Never played this, definitely want to later. Maybe when End Walker is out so I can run through the story.

    I did play through all of DQ7. It took me six years, as mentioned above, and I found it to be excruciatingly slow, though there were elements I liked (the music, the stories).

    Did my own personal tier-list which won't be controversial at all. Basing this off of the original versions of the games, not the remakes. @Szlia Timewyrm and a few of the postgame super-bosses in DQ11S were insane. There was one in particular that was like, two bosses at once. I think it was...

    Yeah, DQXI is its own self-contained story. They might connect XII to it, we'll see. 1-3 is a trilogy (3-1-2), 4 through 6 are supposed to be a trilogy but have a lot less connection to each other than 1-3, and after that they're pretty much all self-contained. YMMV with the older ones, a lot...

    Dragon Quest VII - The one game in the series that I actively don't like and have only played through once. There are people who swear by this game, though. By far the longest game in the series, and the slowest as well. Carries over DQ6's class system, though there's a lot of class bloat at...

    For some reason there isn't one of these already, so here's a thread for all things Dragon Quest. IMO this is debatably the best series of JRPGs available on consoles, right up there with Final Fantasy. They're #1A and #1B for me. It's hard to say which one is a better series, since FF usually...
