    Over the next five days, 3ds completes its ascent to jrpg godhood with DQ7 tomorrow and SMT Apocalypse Tuesday. And I'm stuck near the beginning of P4G. One of the best games ever, but I've played it before, so ...ugh.

    Nah, but it seems like quite a deal. Walmart had one with UC4 for 300 bucks. Gonna be pretty funny if it outsells the pro

    I've heard good things about the 3ds version of Abyss, and can't really think of a reason that it wouldn't be. Except for people that hate handhelds Edit: good things as in the port is successful on a technical level. I don't think they added or enhanced anything.

    I'm hoping for the best, but honestly Abyss is the only game in the series that I'd consider uniformly excellent (haven't played Vesperia or Hearts R, which to be fair are reputed to be among the best). Zestiria was easily the worst of the ones I've pkayed, but it probably had the best music imo.

    I'm definitely getting DQ7. It was so fucking late into PS1's cycle iirc that not only had the PS2 already released, so had Scars of Velious, so I was mired in unrepentant EQ addiction. Won't be able to play it at release, though, as I started P4G not long ago.

    Final Fantasy XV (PS4 / XB1 / PC)

    I'd wager Kojima was allowed to do whatever the hell he wanted, until he wasn't. Authorizing a Kojima mining trip isn't really the same thing as authorizing an FFXV mining trip, and for a number of reasons. He's always struck me as the embodiment of the attributes that artsy people invariably...

    Final Fantasy XV (PS4 / XB1 / PC)

    I don't really think it's a recent development. Atlus caught up mid-to-late PS2 era and overtook them covertly and permanently sometime soon thereafter - I just don't think anybody really realized it at the time, because Shin Megami was (and to a real extent still is) a lesser-known, more niche...

    Final Fantasy XV (PS4 / XB1 / PC)

    Yeah on one hand I kinda admire them for wanting to deliver a unique experience with each new entry; on the other, they're dirty cuntbags. Wish they'd just work on perfecting a formula that already exists instead of...whatever the hell those trailers represent.

    9/11/2001 - Where were you when Bush knocked down the towers?

    I'm a year older than you and can definitely relate to parts of this. I certainly give a shit now, but for a while it was definitely an event more defined by adults' reaction to it.

    Heading to class in 10th grade. Pretty much watched the news all day, in every class, which is completely surreal in highschool. In college there's always days where professors cancel class, or where time is spent just chatting about whatever, but my highschool was one of those expensive...

    Final Fantasy XV (PS4 / XB1 / PC)

    I've found that as I age I care less and less about cutting-edge graphics and custom servers and mods and the like, so consoles have been my platform of choice for the last half-decade. But ask me to fork over 400 bucks every THREE years for an underpowered device, and I'll just build a new pc.

    SoaSE had a criminally underrated sountrack. This one, in particular, gives me chills at ~1:52. At one point I had it looping repeatedly when studying infinite series convergence tests for calc 2. It somehow fit.

    Since I've actually started working on raiding (even have a Beorg, now!), who're the premier single target nukers? Nyami seems to do by far the most damage of any nuker I have, but she's a fragile breaker.

    Yeah, she's the second best unit in game atm imo (behind Ark), but goddamn she fucks with squad comp. Haven't had a squad I'd consider elegant since I OE'd her.

    Persona 5

    Famitsu apparently just gave the game a 39/40, which means a few things. 1). The 9/10er needs to...disappear. 2). Famitsu considers it a worthy rival to FFXIII, FF Type Zero, Resident Evil 6 and Tales of Xillia, but inferior to Nintendogs and FFXIII-2 3). It follows that Famitsu can no longer...

    Final Fantasy XV (PS4 / XB1 / PC)

    I didn't really mind the draw system so much as the corollary thereof. Getting 99 of a spell really wasn't that time consuming. What was annoying as fuck, though, was the knowledge that if you wanted to CAST a spell - say, ultima - you were weaking your character, which thereby forbid you from...

    Needed to do it anyway. Having another omni mitigator is nice. Lucky enough to have Ensa, and was able to complete it with her leading and a Miku friend (I don't have an omni female status cleanse, so a lead null was nice). Got 2.1 mil or so, but almost wiped like 3 times.

    I'd most like to replace poor Felice, who has to be the most humiliated broad in the annals of Brave Frontier. Shiny new, awesome Omni with the best bb fill in the business. Then Elza, dark bitch that she is, encroaches on part of her niche, Bloodborne-wannabe Adriesta encroaches on another...

    Only noteworthy pulls for me over the past few weeks are Kalon and...Azurai!!!! Wasn't wasn't even a rateup with him in it, but I stopped aummoning right there. I know not to push my luck. Kalon I really want to like, but he just doesn't seem very good. Gonna try hard to use him, though...

    Zekt will indeed be an amazing KM lead. I pulled mine right afterwards, ofc. He's really good, too - he appears to me to completely outclass Rize, at least until Omni.

    I don't know for sure, but it'd make the most sense if they were just deactivated in Summoner Arc in a way analogous to spheres in Challenge Arena. Ditto on the RL (and hence my continued silence). RL keeping me busy this week.

    Yeah, definitely hoping to pick up a few more spark and stat elgifs. Btw guys, Felice and Deer's spheres are fucked atm for the noble purpose of FH experimentation.

    I'm of two minds regarding the event. On one hand, your logic is sound - it is a decent gem investment, at least compared to blowing 50 gems for a unit. On the other, I wanna be ready for the next round of limited exclusive bullshit. Never know what we'll get - another Zeruiah or another Iori...

    Haven't even been able to read up on the event, and I don't even know what sphere you're talking about :P Slept for 15 hours, went to work and felt like a zombie all day. I guess that's what sleep deprivation and resultant oversleep does, and it's interfered with my progress.

    I don't remember much about that encounter, but I think I used two blow shit up leads (ensa and sirius friend i think). Ensa's bb can easily inflict the necessary ailments, but I brought along hadaron as well and UBBed with him for infliction if ensa failed. I can put Avani's sphere on Ensa if...

    I'd do something like Sirius lead Elza Lara Krantz Allanon. Not sure about last slot. Hell, have some fun with ET's 50 hit BB (this is a single target fight) and Elza's SBB and spark away. They don't seem to clash too badly. Elza really seems built for this trial, come to think of it.
