    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    The game has gotten progressively easier with every remaster. In the original SNES release many characters were missing their best ability, ATB gauge charged slower, xp rewards were lower, most of the bound spell items were removed (hermes sandals for example), and there was no sprint function.

    I stand by that but I concede that there's a very good chance this DA's office thing may be the tipping point that makes WME and Disney shift course away from the 'lay low and then test the waters after Loki 2 airs' plan.

    How'd he get past the diamond coated carbon fiber chastity belt? I wouldn't want her having sex at 16 regardless of who the partner was. You're talking about an age difference that didn't even raise eyebrows barely 40 years ago. The shotgun would be loaded with buckshot, I'd run his name...

    You aren't wrong. I stick to comedies, shonen, and the occasional slice of life because even the heaviest emotional stuff in them slides right off like water off a ducks feathers. Oshi latched on to a subconscious fear to slip through my usual indifference/detachment and shank me emotionally...

    Oshi is exactly the kind of shit I avoid like the plague. Slept like shit last night because I can't shake this feeling that I've witnessed a profound cosmic injustice that needs to be righted.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    My new alternate theory (which can probably be immediately discarded on the grounds that it requires the guy not be retarded) is that it's just an elaborate plot to permanently embed himself into the LotR mythos, like the urban legend about some chick getting a large settlement from the...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    I also have questions about how he was able to publish it in the first place. I assume there is some sort of automated submission system for e-books but does it not get subjected to scans for profanity/obscenity/plagiarism? The book has been purchasable for over 6 months and didn't flag any kind...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    That kind of plagiarism would be technically legal but would still be highly unethical and scandalous behavior. But considering the e-publishing date, it's far more likely that he rewrote his shitty fanfic to match the already released episodes than they stumbled across his "masterpiece" and...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    He actually released his fanfic without permission which raises this above the level of typical frivolous plagiarism lawsuits. Except looking at the dates, 4 episodes of RoP aired before he e-published his fanfic...

    Why was there ever any serious doubt about his being cleared to play again once there was a consensus that the cardiac arrest was due to commotio cordis? You could stand him on a field and have him take a thousand tackles straight to the chest without it happening again. Maybe people overreacted...

    Who cares what they intended? When 99% of gold/plat matches are Geth (the only enemy without a sync kill), it speaks loudly as to how hated sync kills are. Fuck they could have at least made Krogan immune to sync kills, considering their other restrictions. Yes a quick rocket could stop a sync...

    No? For fucks sake in that SAME goddamn article Disney and WME are gonna hunker down and hope it blows over. Loki S2 is already wrapped and Majors undoubtedly features prominently in it, which means reshoots would be extensive and costly. My guess is they're gonna keep him in limbo until Loki...

    It was a poorly balanced shitshow and was somehow incredibly fun in spite of that. Why those fuckheads refused to ever address the #1 player complaint (and instead pretty much taunted us about their refusal to address it) is beyond me.

    He's one of the best things about the game and it was such a slimeball decision to cut him out to package as dlc.

    So was Zaeed. I think you're conflating 'DLC that is ready to go at launch' with 'DLC that was obviously chopped out of the full game to be sold separately'

    It's sounded fine in FF14 for years. I will grant that it was only the Garleans (bad guys) who call them Eikons and everyone else calls them Primals but you spend so much time talking to Garleans that you hear the term constantly and it doesn't sound out of place.
