The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.

The [chat] where we exert ourselves to talk about things we actually like

Like Dragon Warrior 3, for instance.

Its predecessor was cute and had a good-natured presentation, but was kind of lacking in the gameplay department.

This game, however, seems to be the stuff, 10 or so hours in. You can create your entire party, choose their classes and genders, and name them after your friends and/or girls you liked in grade school, as per ancient law

The graphics continue to be a wild improvement over the previous installment, the music is excellent, and the combat is more interesting and more rewarding. We'll see how this holds up. Maybe the game is great until you need to grind for 200 hours.

We'll find out.

ANYWAY: it gets really fucking fatiguing logging into chat to watch people continually fail to engage either with each other or with themselves. Experiment with forthrightly discussing your real feelings about things, and accept the possibility that if you don't have real feelings about a thing, it's okay, and in fact encouraged, to say nothing.

Those are my two cents for the evening. Proceed.

    That's cannon, not the forbidden word. The forbidden word is forbidden because Kosh hates Simonwolf's thesis on Madoka or, more likely, to get rid of stupid Star Wars discussions.

    Okay Jacob but my real feelings tonight are that I’ve been lying in bed for 2 hrs and been unable to fall asleep
    This is unfortunate and annoying

    I think also I accidentally took too much Metamucil so my tummy is bloated and weird

    And also now it’s 36 degrees out and humid which means that my shitty overheated old ass apartment building is warm even when I’m blowing in cold air from outside

    It’s probably like 70 degrees in here and dry even with my radiator off

    I slept great for a week cuz it was 20 degrees out at night

    Why is it warm again

    Come back to me cold

    Come back to me sleep

    @simonwolf

    the western fan preference for official endorsement of a narrative runs counter to the seemingly asian ecumenical embrace of competing character concepts innit

    obviously this can be rationalised, cf comic multiverses, but the desire to crown an official narrative seems perennial and persistent

    is it a business model thing - relative kinds of revenue as shaped by tax, corporate, and IP laws - or is it a cultural thing

    I have Dragon Quest 3 for the Gameboy Color. Back in the day, at around lvl 30, I visited the casino/board game mini game and encountered a wonderful glitch that gave my main character infinite XP. As a lvl 99 god running around the first city, Slimes and Bunicorns exploded with a glance.

    I feel like Nikki Minaj should probably put more effort into her music because every cameo I’ve heard have felt uninspired and lukewarm even when accounting for internal rhyming which is a thing I never knew existed.

    Also the saga I went through to get a refill on my anti-depressants was a darkly humorous clusterfuck of (well sir the doctor wants to see you before you get more refills, but you’re out of town so go to an urgent care, but your insurance won’t cover any prescriptions not from your primary doctor, also the soonest opening for an appointment is March 27th, oh fuck it fine have some medicine after two weeks of nothing.)

    It was like life was targeting me specifically. But of course that’s not true.

    Here's something I like: Skyrim on Switch.

    I've been genuinely experimenting with different ways to get past problems that aren't just "get a powerful weapon and bash the shit out of things"

    Part of the charm is the leveling system and the way enemies also get tougher as you progress. Sometimes this can lead to problems though, like last night when I did an early Companions quest and was getting consistently wrecked by a half dozen Silver Hand dudes with lots of heavy armor.

    In the past I would have just reloaded a save and got the eff out of dodge but I decided to try and beat them. I used conjuration. I used fire. I used swords. I used arrows. I used dungeon traps. I used status effect shouts that I'd picked up but never ever used in my previous hundreds of hours of Skyrim.

    And when the last of them lay dead at my feet I felt something.

    Accomplishment.
