Yeah, but that’s not selectively gutting it. That predated the Disney acquisition and they wiped literally everything but the Clone Wars cartoon out of continuity.

Secondary pro tip from someone who also got their PS5 via Best Buy:

I recently started a replay of HZD on mine. I had an original model PS4, so the difference between that and the PS5 is astounding, to say the least. I keep stopping to admire the views.

Seconded on this. Most 4 man dungeons are really easy to tank with only a few killer mechanics in a handful of dungeons to work out. As long as you’re vocal that you’re new to the mechanics, people tend to be understanding.

Really, really good game if you dig Star Wars.

It is 100% canon. They even made a comic around Cere Junda.

Nothing until my new hard drive shows up and then nothing until I get it set up. Snagged myself a 1TB 3500/3000 pcie 3 and it’s supposed to show up today. Upgrading from a 500/500 SATA drive in my laptop and I’ve got my backups ready and raring to go.

And that’s over a year old. Since then...

I’ve been going strong a year and change so far over the Blizzchung fiasco and they’ve only continued to pull bullshit since, so I think I’ve got this.

Uh, what? How exactly does one punish the execs beyond not buying their products?

*Sigh* I want this so, so badly. Diablo 2 is probably one of my top 5 games all time. I literally had just reinstalled it like three days before the announcement (Trying my hand at modding, which I have yet to get working right).

See, all this talk of packratting and I’m now worried my mother is going to be accused of regicide. Way to go.

And also the whole “I.” Significant improvements to the story aside, there was a lot in that section that I’d contend was infuriating because of the way it railroaded you into bad decisions.

That was one of the parts I hated. It was probably the biggest idiot ball moment of the entire game. I’m looking at this vial on the ground thinking “This is definitely poison and I am 100% going to be implicated in something because of this. Can I just... not pick it up and call the Immortal Flames? I’m kind of hot…

Alphie’s got some strong, strong stuff in ShB too (Alisae’s arc has more pathos, but Alphie’s is just kind of hilarious).

I... disagree strongly? Yeah, the regicide got retconned, but there’ve been a whole lot of losses to this point. Shit, you lose two major NPCs in HW alone. Then we lost (Kind of) two scions during Stormblood.

Having gone to 80 on a WHM, I’m more or less over padjals at large.

Honestly, my biggest issue with 1.55 is that... (Spoilers)

I’d echo this with a caveat: read a quick summary of 1.0 first. Everything in Coil is, more or less, built as an ode to what came before but isn’t in the game anymore. Final Coil, in particular, would make absolutely no sense without that step.

Playing through it, I never really held Alphinaud’s attitude against him. He’s like 16 during ARR and I lay the blame for his fuckups at the feet of the adults he was surrounded with that never bothered to try to pump the brakes on him. Like, I’ve got a 15 year old and he sure has a shit ton of bad ideas because he’s…
