Acacia Sgt Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Okay, I think that's it for the weekend. I'll continue doing sidequests next time. Hmm, I wonder if I'll reach the point where I may need to level grind in order to finish quests. I already have a couple where I'm still underleveled. Spoiler Like Melancholy Tyrea But ah well, I'll soon see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armagon Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 No way the SoL cute girl game is touching on "why bandits exist" before Fire Emblem lol. But still, this is like, really wild. It's just so interesting to see how Atelier went from a relatively grounded medieval fantasy to full on SoL cute girls doing cute things series. Even the more serious ones of Dusk and Secret don't really go in this direction. The most you get of the latter in particular is "history has shown again and again how nature points out the folly of man". Of course i say relatively grounded because there's still Anyways You are not immune to hot lady knight. Now, unique to Salburg seemingly Minigames! Given that alchemy in modern Atelier itself can be a minigame, i guess they had these to compensate. 8 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: I was just thinking of Rune Factory 5. With Celceta done, I realized I'm running low PC games that I've yet to play and that's one I've been leaving unfinished. That led me to find out that buried in the game's data are character ages. Probably not literal, more like "designed to look like X age", a loose guideline.: Replying to this now since it slipped my mind earlier 8 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Misasagi: 24 Hina: 10 8 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: The bachelorettes could all use two years slapped on them Yeah i just assume their all 18.

I think something that's fascinating in that same boat is horses. Horses originated in North America. They crossed over to Eurasia. The ones that remained in North America died out. Millenia pass. The Europeans bring them back. If Alaska was just deleted like the video suggests, the mere fact of horses not existing would have singlehandedly changed the course of human history.

What I remember from my history class on the matter was that colonists didn't recognize native fields, as European use of animal powered plows on their fields having lines of identical crops, whereas Americans would plant clusters of different crops that had synergistic effects on the soil, similar to the practice of crop rotation in Europe. 30 minutes ago, Armagon said: No way the SoL cute girl game is touching on "why bandits exist" before Fire Emblem lol.

Acacia Sgt Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Hmm, yeah, I've decided. If I do dabble in writing Xenoblade fanfics, my first idea would be something in the likes of writing about Spoiler a High Entia family dealing with the aftermath of the... well, you know, the Ether overflow. But well, whenever that gets done... who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me a woman in a real, practical, full suit of armor, then we'll talk. ...Sorry, I know everyone hates when I comment on anime designs, but it just jumped out to me that three out of four women wear recolored variants of the same "shoulders covered, titties out, free belly" attire. Like, would it have killed them to at least put the lady knight in an actually good-looking suit of armor? wait iS THAT MOULDER BEHIND THE BAR THERE-- 4 minutes ago, Shrimpy -Limited Edition- said: A jp artists who was doing wholesome Omori fanart got harassed over the most stupid shit.

Interdimensional Observer Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 I think I'll try Endless Space 2 no relation to Infinite Space today. Picked up the game on sale for like $8 during the Steam Summer sale. I tried the tutorial last night, my head.😵 But then, it doesn't seem really all that different from Civilization, I can get used to it. The UI feels a bit lacking though, I think that's a problem. On the positive side, despite being on a cosmic scale, the game isn't filling me with the darkness of the void of space and triggering any melancholy. It was cheaper than Stellaris, so that's why I opted to try this for sci-fi 4X first. If my brain needs a break after a while, I seriously need to dust off the Switch, that'd provide a nice break. 6 hours ago, Armagon said: No way the SoL cute girl game is touching on "why bandits exist" before Fire Emblem lol.

The most you get of the latter in particular is "history has shown again and again how nature points out the folly of man". I don't recall any conversation this kind of down-to-earth seriousness in the stuff I went through. I mean, some "typical serious popular anime" stuff (e.g. alchemy being sealed away b/c devastatingly dangerous in Iris 2), but a discussion along the lines of like this? Either I'm forgetting (very possible), or I'm not properly categorizing seriousness, or it didn't exist. And as one trained in history, I don't mind seeing someone else have fun with their own little trip back in time.🤓 Witnessing the past can alter your perspective on where things could go, can redefine that which was already known. How old "tradition" really is being one of your lessons here. 6 hours ago, Armagon said: The puni looks real good here, HD-claymation quality better than Marie actually.
