Nintendo always dominated the handheld market despite the usually inferior specs for one simple reason. Nintendo is the only company that actually undersands handhelds as a concept.

The Switch does this with some games too. I remember wondering how the heck I had 94 hours on a Cadence of Hyrule file before realizing it must have still been counting time while in sleep mode.

To answer the off-handed question from the picture, the Garlean third eye gives them enhanced spacial awareness and depth perception. It’s why pure-blood Garleans are naturally good at things like piloting mechs and airships and shooting guns, and such.

I think it’s not that SB is somehow worse than HW, but that SB is a lot less... focused. The Doman and Ala Mhigan stories were almost entirely separate, even in the post-patches, and that split meant that neither got the love and attention they deserved. As much as I LOVE the Doma stuff I think the SB story would have…

Personally my favorite part of the story was seeing Fordola again. She has been criminally under utilized by the MSQ to date. It’s nice to know they haven’t completely forgotten about the long neglected side characters (see also, Unukalhai in 5.4.)

That picture doesn’t do it justice. It’s actually a giant spiky ponytail that makes your head looks like a pineapple.

This has got to be the worst use of a slideshow I’ve ever seen.

For the life of me I will never understand why everyone loves this game so much. Even in 2007 it was one of the most generic and uninteresting JRPGs I’d ever seen. It wasn’t bad, per se, but it also did nothing good. “It exists” is about all you can really say about it.

You had me worried there for a minute with the title.

The article’s title is a bit misleading. This only affect time cards. Regular subscriptions and time gained from WoW tokens still come in 30 day increments.

The reason everyone else mostly failed is that historically Nintendo is the only one that understood handhelds as a concept. Everyone else, from the Game Gear to the Vita tried making portable consoles, not understanding that while on the go people don’t want portable consoles. They want handhelds. Games designed…

Yeah. There’s a good chance he actually didn’t know what it mean. It’s not exactly a common term right now.

Every time I see things like this I think back to Sonic 3D Blast on the Genesis. You could get to the secret level select screen by inputting a cheat code, OR you could get there by physically whacking the console to glitch the game.

The Alphinaud love is a matter of time and perspective. Everyone who loves him now (and he does learn from his experience and become a much better character in Heavensward and beyond) probably forgot about how terrible he was back in ARR.

I’m torn on this issue because no amount of trans rights legislation will change the fact that there are real and measurable differences between men’s and women’s athletics. It’s why most sports are separated by gender in the first place. It may not matter in casual settings but when talking about competitions where…

To be fair, Warburton died defending his daughter from said rampaging goobbue. It wasn’t just some random bit of bad luck.

Dark knight is BY FAR the best job quest

To be fair, they learned a lot from ARR and did a lot of things better in Heavensward and beyond. You won’t see story heavy, cutscene filled dungeons like Castrum and Praetorium again.

Pretty much. This is why I always laugh at things like classic WoW servers and old-style games. Do you actually want to play vanilla WoW, or do you want a to turn the clock back 15 years and be a clueless, starstruck, teenage newbie again? No remake or rerelease will give you the latter.
