I play in a JP server (followed friends there from FF11). Since I’m on bizzaro time there, I have no problems.

There were a lot of games patched this week. I’m going to guess it has to do more with Windows 11 and Denovo licensing or incompatibility than anything else

McNoChin? Is that some weird way of making fun of Bitch O’Donald?

I’m still buying physical for some games but I’m a reluctant digital convertee. It’s mainly because of patches (which is the big one) and DLC. Gone are the days where the game is shipped as is and day 1 patches are the norm, not the exception. Not getting a working game out of the box makes me less inclined to go to a…

Hopefully they also use this chance to fix the apps. Crunchyroll has a dated app and Funimation’s hasn’t worked properly in a long time.

As someone that worked inside the industry for a brief time (hated the work atmosphere which was toxic as hell), most of these gamer chairs come form about 3 factories. A “brand” can customize a bit to offer better features and prices but they are modular and boxed in very few places.

I like motion controls and the more forgiving motion controls of Twilight Princess were better than Skyward Sword because they were more forgiving and linear in execution. I wanted to like Skyward Sword but I could not. The more precise nature just failed in execution. I played Skyward Sword after I played with Sony’s…

Further to add, this is the first time we can buy DLC for the “premium sound version” for an english release. I am very excited for this release even though it doesn’t have all the big series. The “premium sound version” is basically an add on so that the BGM is completely the full Japanese language (read singers) of…

I miss cheats and cheat devices. How the heck am I supposed to get through backlog without them?

I’d use [D]e[L]i[C]ut. I hope he sees this because it is soo Kojima.

I don’t know why he’s getting stars. False equivalency is fucked

As an 80’s kid, I was used to it being the other way around too. This is because of Nintendo (in terms of ergonomic placement). In terms of labelling, it’s not really a Japanese thing. It’s a gameshow thing. Consuming US gameshows as a kid, X was always “too bad” and O was always “all right”.

You mean like some bosses from FFXIV? Then you should be at least somewhat excited that it’s Yoshi-P

I’m fine with tropy anime as long as the characters feel “real” for the world they inhabit but I’m always down for a good melancholy story. Those are my favorite (feels good to sip whisky while I take it in). I’ll check it out for sure!

Funny enough, my mom enjoyed the original and hated brotherhood. Even the early parts were better (compare the ole Nina Tucker episodes and you realize the punch just isn’t the same). I liked both but as you said, the bittersweetness of the original is probably better for the non anime fan. Brotherhood is definitely…

Depends on the world. I hated Xenosaga’s art direction. It looked like playing dolls in a real world setting. In other words, some people like myself likes a consistent art direction in both character models and world. When you mishmash inconsistent art directions, it can detract from the overall feel. Anime Textured…

Flawed concept. The experiment was about measuring fear. People are not afraid more than they are probably bored.

IOt’s 1/2 of the love button (XO).

Umm wha? One of the themes was Rei 1 is not Rei 2, is not Rei 3. Each Rei is her own character despite being clones of Shinji’s dead mom. Heck, the theme carries over to the various Super Robot Wars. In timelines where you can’t save Rei 2, Rei 3 becomes an enemy. In timelines where you can save Rei 2, she stays an…

Wario and Luigi joy con colours?
