Dayni Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 I managed to clear both steel ball runs in HoD, which honestly, impressive, me. Also, Maxim clearly had Lydie put on a maid outfit when she was put away in the castle. The fuck did I just play? 2 minutes ago, Armagon said: Tears of the Kingdom at $70. Echoes of Wisdom at $50.

Interdimensional Observer Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 4 minutes ago, Armagon said: Wat? Isn't Atlus notorious for sales or was I being gaslit the whole time? The "Atlus Tax" was their notorious pricing thing. That and the "wait for the enhanced version bro!" planned obsolescence scam. Routine and frequent sales were a big thing of their's on the 3DS, and this has continued into the Switch era. Being bought by Sega might've temporarily slowed or halted this, but I'm pretty sure the sales are back in full force. -And doesn't everyone big except Nintendo do fire sales sooner than later nowadays?🤔 The cutthroat nature of the glutted gaming market which some might say hurts the value of games and smaller developers, but then capitalism won't raise wages fast enough. 2 minutes ago, Dayni said: I managed to clear both steel ball runs in HoD, which honestly, impressive, me.

Dayni Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 HoD is growing on me a little, but I can still note it's issues. It is a shame most of the bosses kinda suck, the music's eh and in terms of movement options, I feel like others did it better. because have context moments where you make enemies interact with the environment is fun. 2 minutes ago, Armagon said: JoJo I am literally describing what is going on in game, but everything is a Jojo reference these days Hell HoD came out before SBR started, it's the real steel ball run /s 2 minutes ago, Armagon said: Totk was 70 on the eShop too.

Interdimensional Observer Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 A medieval copyist's error might be why it wasn't until 2017 that archaeologists discovered the once-great Temple of Artemis Amarynthia (not to be confused Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World). -I tried to shift my 😄 mind into 🤓 to turn down the volume.

BrightBow Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 What is it with the Succubuses in Portrait of Ruin flirting with Jonathan but insulting Charlotte? What self-respecting evil incarnation of illicit sex isn't bisexual? Most uptight Succubuses ever. And here I thought Jonathan and Charlotte were the ones with the church.

Venger_06 Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 TIL that the CK3 AGOT mod received a dragon update. A shame my laptop probably won't run it.

I heard meteorologists ignore the solstices and equinoxes and sort the seasons into Dec-Jan-Feb, Mar-Apr-May, Jun-Jul-Aug, Sep-Oct-Nov, anyhow. None of that "2 full months and half of two others" astronomical nonsense. Yep, thankfully winter is almost over here, just one more month until spring. The best season. 4 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Don't complain them into using machine/AI translation to cut corners, that couldn't possibly end well.

Comedy! PoR's strongest suit. The timeless comedy of a 16 year old girl getting murdered by her mind controlled best friend. And I mean, if Jonathan gets hit, that's going to happen. Jonathan is a player character, which means he has virtually no windup on his moves and no movement AI besides heading straight for Charlotte. So she has no breathing room. And Charlotte needs a moment to actually cast anything. Even if Charlotte could get any spells off, Astarte resists just about anything other than weapon damage. Only way Charlotte would survive that scenario is if the player has a specific strategy in mind to style on the boss and lets Jonathan gets hit on purpose to show off. But anyone who tackles this the first time, will see the Game Over screen because that move has insane speed and homing. But once you know what the move actually does, circumventing it is effortless. It's just a dumb cheap shot. Idk, maybe this concept could have worked if losing Jonathan was temporary or you could regain control of him somehow. Or maybe make it so that fighting Jonathan is a phase of the boss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luminous Arc 3 wasn't quite as vibrant compared to its two predecessors due to the machine vs. professional difference, but the b-grade anime-flavored characterization wasn't totally lost. -And machine translation isn't exactly zero effort in the case of fan translations. When you consider that patching in the text and making sure you don't break the game, is half the battle in that case. 26 minutes ago, Venger_06 said: It's probably because a succubus counterpart is an incubus.

Nocturne bosses actually have MP stats which they need for their spells, and Daisoujou's MP is low enough that I actually had my Incubus use Energy Drain on him until he ran out. The mummified monk got screwed. Also, I'm told the first Persona Q gets broken by Impure Reach, and Incubus is like the first Sub-Persona to have it.

I mean, you do realize there are different factions within the GOP, right? Some Republican voters are religious. Others, dare I'd say a majority, very much are not or at most are casually observant. A decade ago, the standard bearer for the party was Reagan, a worldly movie star whose wife consulted an astrologer during his time in office (fascinating story there if you care to look it up). The heyday of the party's religious wing was 10, 20, 30 years ago. Since then, it's been on the hard downturn, evidenced by the fact of Trump curbstomping a slew of Christian candidates during the 2016 GOP primaries.

It's people who think having kids at all is unethical. And having kids is something that unites even the most apolitical conservative. For there to be an anti-natalist Trump supporter is.....wild. Never mind the fact that anti-natalists are basically depressed edgelords woth extra steps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
