I don't hate elves but Zevran is a horrid little beast. It would almost have been better for DA:O to have no gay male options at all.

Calling people's private sexual fantasies "sick" is a step down a road we do not want to travel.

Vents.

You're not forced to use her for a fucking plot mission.

Wow, you can afford one of these pods in just one week!

I think Yumi Kawamura is only the vocalist for the P3 version; the P4 version sounds to me like it's sung by Shihoko Hirata (who replaced Kawamura for P4).

If your references are called more than a couple of times during your job search, either they're good enough that you're getting multiple offers to choose from, or something's wrong with one of them. References are not normally called until an employer is close to making an offer.

Fantastic game, but the inability to change the text speed makes the lengthy introduction s o s l o w. On a par with Xenogears (except in this one the second half of the game is actually worth playing).

Man your comments and some of the replies to it are really depressing. You people have totally given in to this way of life. As a developer myself I have to wonder why you feel it is okay to be treated this way.

We can work with Hoboken because it's only three syllables and ends with a schwa; with Honolulu you're just not going to get Americans to fully voice four consecutive vowels. At least we drop both long o's so the assonance across the first two syllables is preserved.

Revealing that he can summon a persona basically gives the whole game away. No innocent NPCs in P4 (other than the Velvet Room inhabitants) have any knowledge of or connection to the TV world.

If "every job you've ever had" amounts to ten years of employment history, sure, list them all. For most of us past a certain age, that advice would take us to a time in our lives we aren't particularly proud of anymore and employers would find less than interesting.

Why should a hiring manager care what your objective is? If it's anything other than the trite "to get this job," it's a point against you. Assuming the job is congruent with your career goals, the place to explain that is the cover letter.

You pretty much have to swear to mention homosexuality in a good light in at least every third sentence you speak, lest you be a foaming-mouthed gay-hater.

My family used to own a bar that served food, and we did that with a few simple things—also coleslaw and potato salad, I think. The time saved on labor more than paid for the difference over the raw ingredients, and I doubt they would have been that much better made from scratch given the time and budget limitations.

I agree, but S2 plays in many respects more like a remake than a sequel—a straight-up upgrade of the original. In that respect it would be a better choice. (Though I would probably recommend starting somewhere else if you were completely new to JRPGs.)

Most FF games have their good qualities, but I don't think any are as completely pleasurable as FF9. Straightforward and satisfying game mechanics, exciting and emotional story, gorgeous art and music. It's like a distillation of the best parts of 1-6, but done at the twilight of the PSX lifespan. This might be the…

Not at all hard if you know what to do, but you're basically guaranteed not to get it if you don't know going in.

Also three different story branches—play as the remnants of the Kingdom, infiltrate the Empire, or take the nutso Ruin branch. Five utterly different endings.

That's for hardcore players only. Rewarding on some levels but extremely long and slow-moving. And the execution of the second disc (abbreviated in production when the budget was cut to expand the next Final Fantasy) is an utter disaster.
