Let me get this out of the way first: I really, really like Octopath. I’m enjoying the hell out of it, and getting more than my money’s worth out of the purchase - and I got the big silly collector’s edition.
Surprise! The client is available for download on the Google Play store RIGHT NOW, and servers go live in less than half an hour. CBT players just need a quick update on the client software, and supposedly we’re keeping our data from it. I sure as hell hadn’t heard anything solid about the release date, so this is a…
Had I known the beta was going to end that fast, I would have been better prepared to write this (or, indeed, I might have known I was going to write it before it ended). But much like in most of the SMT series, shit happened I wasn’t ready for, and we got wiped, but we should be able to load our save data later. So…
Emails have been sent out with links to the closed beta test of Shin Megami Tensei: Liberation Dx2, a new F2P mobile game from ATLUS. Registered users can find a download link in the email, and the servers will fire up Tuesday evening. (Do note that the email contains quite a few formatting and grammatical errors,…
(This is Scully’s fault.)
Welcome back to (a NEWLY UPDATED, see bottom of article) Cooking With Raitzeno, where God is dead of food poisoning, Cthulhu is vomiting in the bathroom, and the Buddha is glad to be fasting. Today I’ve only got a small morsel of suffering to inflict on you, but it’s going to be made deliciously worse by knowing what…
So i may have mentioned my Wednesday night RPG campaign is an Avatars game, in which we are playing as ourselves in what’s effectively an isekai. One of my friends has brought his full-size van into this world, the other has brought his motorcycle. I brought my backpack with all my gadgets, and we’ve managed to cobble…
‘Welcome’ back to Cooking With Raitzeno, where more than a year of absence is not enough to save you from deep emotional trauma.
I’m gonna lead off with the question real quick for the tl;dr before I go long into how I got there: What’s your favorite instance of either a tabletop RPG featuring in anime/manga/LNs, or an anime-based occurance in a tabletop game you’ve played?
“Where’s part 1?” Shut up.
I’m a longtime fan of the series, and played a lot of the demo, so I came into the game with high but reasonable expectations. But after I picked up EO5 yesterday, I’ve found myself not enjoying it as much as I expected to, and I haven’t quite been able to put my finger on why.
Welcome to the Summer 2017 Ani-TAY Recommendation Collaboration! Assuming nobody else writes a better version of this before we have to publish, I’m your host this time, Raitzeno, and I’ve cooked up— no, thankfully, I haven’t. We’ve had some scheduling kerfluffles leading to me writing this up, but the overall process…
This is why we can’t have nice things.
Short answer: Everything would be terrible. Long answer:
So this is a thing in Japan. Ninty just announced a Metabble-themed New 2DS bundled with DQ11. Holy shit that is smexy. Too bad the XL/LL hurts when held by my itty bitty t-rex hands. ;_;
Disclaimer: Naka-Kon 2017 is not over yet, as of this writing Saturday afternoon; it goes on tomorrow, but I will not be attending, and I left earlier than expected today. This is because we got BLASTED with a snowstorm and I wanted to leave before I had to dig my car out without gloves. Thanks, Kansas weather!
I’m here at Naka Kon! Thankfully, I am attending as a civilian, not a guest chef.
Okay so obviously this is MAJOR SPOILERS for the ending of the series. But let’s be real here, most readers knew how this had to end a long, long time ago. To-LOVE-Ru has long been one of the worst offenders in terms of ecchi schlock harem romcoms and their complete lack of meaningful romantic developments. It’s not…
Roses are red, daisies are yellow, why are you still reading Cooking With Raitzeno? (FUCK YOU, IT’S CLOSE ENOUGH TO RHYMING. CWR is all about “eh, close enough.”)
Given certain recent events, I find that I must reevaluate the way I write cooking articles. Namely, I have gravely overestimated humanity’s intelligence. Therefore, this is a SPECIAL EDITION wherein I will be showing you how to make a snack whose degree of difficulty more correctly corresponds to the average…
