    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I think that's being extremely optimistic. Probably more like 20 TBH all of this just makes me less and less interested in this whole thing. Like he says, the theme of the original game is loss and dealing with it. This new version is just like "lol nobody has to have loss because random...

    Dragon Quest: The Definitive Thread

    CORRECTION, 7 is NOT easily available on phones. Some Mandela Effect thing is going on here, but I am 99% sure I saw it available on the Play Store when I went on there to get DQ4-6 a couple months ago. Apparently it's Japan-only, so 7 is only available on PS1 and 3DS here. Laaaaame. I need...

    Dragon Quest: The Definitive Thread

    I hope we get DQ10 single-player and HD console ports of DQ8 and 9 at some point. And DQ12 of course. If they announced all of those things as definitely on the way for US players, I'd be so happy. I've played the first six (and 11) to death and 7 is easily available on phones.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I'd pay $60 for that at the absolute most. And even that's too much. It's a pretty gorgeous statue. $180 though? That's just taking advantage of a rabid weeb fanbase.

    Gladiator 2

    It amazes me how geographically well-defended Italy is. A huge mountain barrier to the north, water on all other sides. They should have been one of the eminent powers in Europe for ages, and I guess they almost were.

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    Coinbase wallet / Uniswap does that for me, it always shows the amount I have as something wildly off. Last time I checked my TrueBit, it looked like the value had doubled, but it was just another error. If it goes up, it WILDLY goes up, and if it goes down, it'll report it as some way too low...

    What is frothy? Blue chip is good. ETH vs BTC seems to be the big debate right now. I still kind of want to get out of my alts, but I'd like to see a significant gain first, especially considering my now extremely-low buy-ins. Made some good plays and cashing them out would be premature...

    A GM could work as a face foil to a heel. Imagine GM Stone Cold having to deal with a heel CM Punk as champion and completely flouting his rules. A reverse of Austin/McMahon where Austin is now the authority and the rebel is the antagonist.

    How much land would $1000 buy? I'm not as confident in owning land as other people here. Within 20 years I expect activist politicians to start re-appropriating property based on race, and within 30 years I expect China to be running the show here. Also expect some SHTF somewhere, either the...

    Got some extra funds for the first time in a bit, and perfect timing with the lull. Do I get BTC, Eth, or add more to help my struggling alts (VET mainly)? I'm generally inclined to say Eth, but it's at this weird mid-ground where it seems like simultaneously a terrible time to buy and a...

    I'm going to be at Gamestop when they open and see if anyone cancelled their preorders of the Collector's Edition. Also will "100%" according to them be able to get a Switch OLED that day if I want one because they've definitely had a few of those preorders cancelled. $50 from Wal-mart is nice...

    Dark Souls

    I'm getting the impression that Code Vein and then Nioh 1 are the easier ones on the list. That works for me, I was kind of hoping for something like that. I can finally finish Nioh.

    I don't know who's left as far as big returning stars go. In the span of a month, AEW acquired NXT's top star, possibly main roster WWE's top guy, and the #1 WWE wrestler people have wanted to see return for 7 years. Charlotte, Cena, Brock, or Roman might make some waves if they jumped, but it's...

    Can I get some opinions on the difficulty scale of my remaining Soulsborne games? AKA rank them from easiest to hardest? I want to play more of these for Halloween but I want to start with whatever's easiest because I haven't played much of anything difficult in months. DS1 is the only one of...

    Yeah, in Ogre Battle I just used my main hero group to kill everything. All of my strongest characters got funneled into that group. Had a secondary group with my other decent characters as backup to help finish off stragglers or run interference, while the primary group beelined right for the...

    Soul Blazer was a prequel to Illusion of Gaia and (Japan-only) Terranigma. I could see all 3 of them getting an HD trilogy release at some point, they were big enough to justify it. Anyone ever play Skyblazer? Now that game was bad-ass. Hardly anyone knew about it, it seemed like.

    Finished DQ5. MAN that game is good. If you never played the Japan-only (for a long time) DQ games, definitely check out the phone or DS port of DQ5. I'm on DQ6 now and I was pretty excited going in because DQ5 left me on such a high. Unfortunately DQ6 has been a big letdown so far. The story...

    So basically, no reason to play on Performance? I recently wondered a similar thing about Ghost of Tsushima, because the framerate looked the same on both settings while the resolution was much better on one.

    At this point I'm really wishing I'd sold those alts I was debating selling so that I'd have more money to buy the Ethereum dip with, however low it gets. Not gonna sell the alts now at a 10-15% loss though, obviously.

    It looks like the Reuters Fake News from April is actually true this time. Problem with pushing fake news is that when something real finally happens, it has less of an impact because people think it already happened. Looks like alts dipped today, but barely. It's a drop in the bucket compared...

    This looks really good, super high-effort remaster. They added some new postgame-type content too, it appears. Had no idea this was even a thing in development, I'll definitely put it on the list and go through it eventually.

    Same. I'm tired of bothering with the PS4-to-PS5 transitions and having two versions of games downloaded on my system. I'll just buy the PS5 version. I sell games when I'm done with them and make back 50-90% of what I paid for them anyway.

    Thanks, I think that makes sense. My third TV (now in storage) once stopped working after a power outage. Then a couple days after that, it miraculously started working again and didn't have a problem since, until the day that I put it away a couple months ago because I'd bought a C1. I don't...

    Need to get two decent surge protectors and don't want to spend an arm and a leg. One for living room, one for office room. That's where my two TVs are and they're the main things I want to protect. One TV has the PS5 next to it, one has my computers next to it, so I can include those. Don't...

    I said a few pages back that we'd probably have a big dip before the customary end of the year surge, then that happened. Also said Solana seemed like a good bet, then it went on a huge run. I'm on a roll That said we'll see if that roll continues because I'm not too sure about my next move...

    Might have mentioned it already, but those guys made an off-air appearance after Grand Slam and got a massive pop for calling Mayor DeBlasio a bitch.

    MJF's contract is up in early 2024. He was signed to one of the longest-term contracts of anybody in the company, maybe THE longest. Even the EVPs generally have 3-4 year contracts.

    MJF, Ricky Starks, and Ethan Page are incidentally who I consider the future of AEW. Like if the company isn't built around them in five years I'll eat my hat. At least, on the heel side. Hangman, Sammy, and Wardlow are who I see the company being built around on the face side (all due respect...

    I was hoping for 1.5m viewers (or whatever is needed to break the AEW record) and was fairly certain they'd handily beat RAW's .49 demo rather than essentially tie. The fact that this didn't get 1.5m is disappointing to me personally because there was zero reason for this to not break their...

    I'd love to see the level 70 expansion idea, with one difference: If you're keeping 3 month cycles for level raises, then have DoN/DoD/PoR all release simultaneously (give OoW its own moment, cause with epics it's fine). That gives said expansion launch AAs and plenty of stuff to last 3 months...

    RAW went all out this week, and gained almost 10% in viewership. They also set the demo rating at a lofty 0.49 IIRC. AEW Grand Slam has a high bar set for it if they want to beat RAW in the demo for the third straight week. I'm sure they will, but it's funny to see WWE trying to stave them off...
