It kinda feels like valve doesn’t know where to go from here.

At times the art style looks awesome and at times it’s a mess. The sprites are all really good though.

Your account and all of your purchases are kept track of through your account (not eloquently said, but hopefully makes sense). You can have multiple accounts on the same PS4 with all the games and saves, but there are some restrictions if the PS4 isn’t considered that account’s “main” console.

Acting like chain is absolute dog poop that you would never eat is snobbery. If you didn't do that, I'm not referring to you.

lol no. I never made any claim stating Dominoes or any chain was better than top of the line pizza. I said food snobbery rubs me the wrong way.

There’s a show called ugly delicious or something like that with David Chang, and in the pizza episode he gets into a little bit about pizza pretentiousness. He makes a snob eat some dominoes (which Chang genuinely loves). Food snobbery really rubs me the wrong way for some reason.

Abso - fucking - lutely

Be nice if they put one in the Switch.

I'm getting there. It's hard to imagine that eventually I can just pocket all that money instead of making these payments.

Yeah I’m enjoying Octopath a lot, and I almost prefer their little separate boring stories as opposed to a straight up bad big story, but they should bring in some outside talent to write something good for a game like octo.

Right now we just have our 401k’s maxed and are putting everything extra for the most part into my student loans. It really is criminal the rates and amount of money the government inflicts on young adults, and it makes me angry to think about. But we should have those paid off within a year, about 5-6 years ahead of schedule, then we will look into investing.

You probably aren’t in the monority. It’s probably more unique to me. Something about it makes any conversation feel so disingenuous to me. I just turned the voices off, so I’m good now.

I have to say the trend of JRPGs where on the lines where there isn’t VA so they just have the character say 1-2 words that sort of convey the tone of what they are actually saying is one of the most annoying things in video games for me at this time. It just grates on me so much.

this is nostalgic of the old console war games for me. But yes they do make a few games in third person.

Fuck it, I'm gonna buy it.

If it's slightly off, do not notice, do not care. If it's a lot off, might notice, given on my mood might think something judgmental about them or not care. Probably one of the farthest things from my mind, but TBH I do not really pay attention to other people in public all that much.

I’m not a very picky eater at all. I’ll eat almost any kind of pizza and love it. I would say I am not big on anchovies. And I like a simpler pizza rather than a mountain of toppings. Favorite is probably straight up pepperoni or pepperoni mushroom or jalapeños. I also love love cream cheese on a pizza, or give me weird sauces like mustard for a cheeseburger pizza or really whatever - I’m in.

Yeah this has been announced for a long time, but nice to have a release date.

Ohhhhhhh I think he’s off there. I’d say the vast majority of people who play just play with their buds and don’t think about it all that much.

So if she is telling the truth and was never warned about her conduct on social media, I understand the argument that firing her was a step too far, and I understand the potential message this sends to the twitter mob - hey we can get people fired. Austin Walker discussed on his podcast the danger of a binary approach to this - that the only consequence for her is to fire her. I think she could have apologized to the very reasonable twitter user that seemed to set her off, even if it was couched in language discussing the harassment I’m sure she does get just kind of explaining that that’s where her head was at. And really even without an apology I think they could’ve just sat her down and discussed handling these things better in the future and if she doesn’t she might face worse consequences. But even with all that said I also still feel like she just totally shit the bed with that interaction, and I think anyone in any position at any job is risking their job to speak to someone like that. And I don’t feel like it’s necessarily enabling assholes on twitter to fire her.

I think the battle system is fantastic. It is linear, but it is open enough and there's enough to go back to that it works for me. I actually thought the music was pretty good. X is a lot of people's entry point to the series, so it had this contingent of people thinking it was the best thing ever, which I do think turned off a lot of long-time fans. Sorta similar to how people reacted to 7. It's such a different game than the fantastic IX though, so I can see how it would turn people off.

X is good, but very flawed. If it didn’t have the awful VA I think people would like it more (when I say people I mean fans prior to X). XII is actually very good as well, it’s just a huge departure. It’s not until XIII until the series goes to utter shit. And man, what a shit game.

Yup unfortunately that’s how a lot of this cross platform stuff is going for me. Minecraft for instance I’d love to be able to start a game on my pc and go finish up some stuff later in bed with the switch, but the functionality just isn’t there. It’s actually a theme with a lot of tech for me lol. Cool ideas that are like only 1/3 of the way there. I bought an Apple Watch and it blows my mind that if I wanna go for a jog and listen to Spotify, I have to take my phone with me. They don’t even have a fucking podcast app specific to the watch, so you have to take your phone for that too (which they are finally fixing this fall). If we’re gonna live in a dystopia, I’d like the tech to at least work the way I want it to, damnit.

If you can play on PC, transfer character and progress back and forth to switch, I’ll give this game another shot.

Luka??
