I don’t mind people who don’t read... I rarely read myself. But I do find it worrying when I meet someone who is proud of the fact that they don’t read (I don’t need someone to be ashamed of it... if you don’t read books just because you don’t like it, that’s fine), and especially if they assume anyone who does read…

Trump is basically doing the same grandstanding bullshit you get from the Kims in North Korea, except that level of fakery has been practiced in NK for decades and has dedicated staff to photoshop processions, stage soccer matches, or report lies from official news stations. Trump is just going with a watered down…
The thing about both Cloud and Squall, who kind of exemplified that archetype in the FF series, is that they were both just acting stoic for different reasons. Cloud had literal brain damage and thought he was a different person, so his stoic, matter-of-fact attitude was just because he was trying to be someone he’s…
They’re not anymore, but in the days of the NES Nintendo was known for being very draconian in their policies for games. They had quality and ethical standards that all games had to adhere to, and they only allowed publishers to release 3 games per year for the system. It was all to combat what had led to the…
Didn’t Reagan refer to his wife as “Mother” a few times?
I remember my wife was planning to put up a gag photo on her second playthrough (she rushed through the game once to avoid spoilers, and actually spent more time exploring on her second time), but when she got to that scene Gentiana actually photobombed that big group shot, and it ended up being such a perfect moment…
Maaan... dudes in fighting games sure do love fighting 10 feet away from active volcanoes.
I kind of feel like the attempts to insult Trump supporters for supporting someone like Trump were inspired by Trump himself... clearly the people respond positively to having an opponent mocked and ridiculed. I think liberals just couldn’t figure out how to aim that ridicule so that it felt empowering, rather than…
Isn’t it kind of sad that our President is such an embarrassment that we’re all honestly hoping that he just does something monumentally illegal just so he can get impeached?
I do wonder... is Trump the Most Hated Man in America right now? Like... I know that some presidents are described that way, but I’ve never seen this much open disgust with a President before. Even Bush, who I saw constantly mocked and ridiculed, still garnered at least some respect. As well, in Bush’s time there was…
I agree that it makes sense for the plot in that way, but really... it just lasts too long before you’re given the sword. Once you have your father’s sword the whole thing becomes at least tolerable, if not ideal. I feel like after the first hallway of dealing with an MT soldier without your full equipment you pretty…
Uh... I think you might have replied to the wrong thread, because this one wasn’t really talking about the details the FE games.
The King family has been courted very extensively by conservatives ever since it became immoral in America to criticize King and the Civil Rights movement. They’re basically the Right Wing’s “black best friend” that can be used to absolve their actions of accusations of racism. You see the same thing with celebrities…
Um... yes? I’m not sure what you’re arguing for or against with this statement.
I think it would be pretty cool to see game development move sort of “laterally”, with a focus on new systems adding new features like mobility over simple growth in power. But it’s also tricky to get these new ideas in the hands of gamers without essentially forcing it on them.
I think we’ll have to wait until March of next year to really know for sure... I’d bet they’ll give the 3DS at least another year of decent support before potentially leaving it behind (depending on how successful the Switch ends up being)
That’s what I was thinking too. The Switch is simply too large to be a full portable system... it’s the same reason you don’t see people casually pulling out tablets in line at the grocery store... they’ll pull out their phones, since they actually fit in their pockets. They could always bank on some nostalgia and…
I think it’s really going to depend on whether the user base moves to the switch. If they start to see sales of 3DS software flagging in proportion to the Switch’s growth, it could be seen as a sign of 3DS players abandoning the old system in favor of the new one. I’m sure they’re still going to give some token…
There are definitely a lot of games that didn’t use the second screen for integral features, but it would be pretty ridiculous to sell an add-on for their new system to play the older games, only to have the caveat that 80% of the library isn’t compatible. Even if a game only uses it for one feature (like, if the game…
