  • How I wish there was a No Exp Share patch for LGPE; its many other flaws aside, it's still some nearly-brainless fun, though it'd be better if I got to actually raise and train my team...

    I've been playing XC3 a lot, after work and on the weekend, and...yeah, I miss XC2; it's just so much bigger and more enjoyable overall.

    Sure, a lot of XC2's content and enjoyability was added to it over time, whereas XC3 is still essentially brand-new and still has promises for more content until Dec 2023, so XC3 could be made better over time (and hopefully modding tools and resources will be made available).
    RichardTheKing
    RichardTheKing
    But comparing the two right now, we've got the feature-complete and jam-packed XC2, and the decently-fun XC3 with some great mechanical improvements but still lacking that future content.
    No contest; XC2 is better, at least for now.
    Come to think, I find whole prawns (with the head and shell still on) to be visually repulsive; same goes for fish and stuff. It doesn't look like food - it looks like a corpse. Just...no, ew.

    @Dark_Phoras You do realise plants and fungi are forms of life too, right? Yet no-one ever gets radical over eating those.
    No thanks, I'll eat flesh without looking the corpse in the eyes.

    "Life" is implied to be "sentient life". If you eat animals while ignoring that you're eating them, you're a coward.

    Is it just me, or is Mexican food quite messy? I mean, sauce and filling always gets squeezed out of tacos and burritos, and nachos are inherently messy. Might as well call it "Messican" food, eh? Eh?
    Okay, u wot? Shulk and Rex, a researcher/mechanic and a salvager respectively, can climb up vines from the start of their games, but a bunch of trained-ass soldiers with a history of war-fighting can't until a few Colonies in? You serious, Monolith?

    I mean, fuck, a literal TIGER carrying a passenger on his back can climb up vines somehow in XC2 without needing to be explicitly taught (Dromarch, carrying Nia). How can a tiger Blade climb, but not soldiers trained since childhood?

    If there's one piece of videogame music that particularly bugs the shit outta me, it's Pokemon Sword/Shield's Gym Leader theme. It doesn't sound like you're facing a tough Trainer; it sounds like some trash party music. I loathe it. Game Freak fucked up majorly here, once again.

    Kinda annoyed at the Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes tutorial windows; they all seem to show female Shez, for some reason, instead of mixing up which sex is used (like Three Houses, and most games, do). Why, Nintendo?

    tbf like 95% of game characters that games in general focus on are male
    RichardTheKing
    RichardTheKing
    ...So? Doesn't mean this one has to focus on the female; utterly revolting. They used male Shez for the game icon, and most of the marketing, so why didn't they continue this trend in-game?
    I wonder, is it "Rock, Paper, Scissors", or "Scissors, Paper, Rock"? I only remember it being referred to the second way, here in Sydney, but the first seems to be the more accepted version elsewhere.
    RichardTheKing
    RichardTheKing
    I think we decided to say Scissors first because it has two syllables, and ending with the one-syllable (and hard 'k' sound) Rock is more dramatic, before you show what you chose.
    So...yeah, hearing Rock come first is pretty weird to me.
    I dunno why, but I have a habit of...well, it can be called self-mutilation - nail-biting, biting the skin around the nails, chewing on tongue every now and then, lip-chewing, and when my hair grows long enough I have an ingrained habit of playing with it, which has caused bald patches before.

    Tried to stop many times before, but...ugh. Don't even know why I do that stuff; not even because of nerves or anything, just habits that I can't kick. I'm weird.

    It's not weird... It's called Neurotic Disorder.
    Or Anxiety.

    The latter is more common.
    Okay, this is weird; my 8bitdo Pro 2 keeps dropping out of connection with my Switch. Never did that before today.
    I do not like phone "night mode" filters at all; they're butt-ugly, and give me headaches. No thanks; I'd rather deal with the blue light, over sickening, aching burnt orange.

    Yes, that is better. Even better would be a dedicated alarm clock. Although laptops are called like that it is actually adviced against having the laptop so close to your body. I want to install a screen far up where I look at when I lie in bed to avoid having so much electric devices near me, that might keep me awake longer than I would without.

    The reason it looks so bad is that basically every damn app puts a partially transparent red box on top of the entire screen.
    Not only is it absolutely horrid, but it also trips some anti-overlay detection, so you couldn't log into your bank, or grant root.

    I know CF.Lumen actually somehow hijacks itself into the display driver (didn't research in great detail how), but it actually unlocks true 4x4 matrix color filtering, which is what is needed for the highest quality of redshift, or other similar filters.
    Kinda annoyed that, unlike DOOM (2016), Eternal *still* has bloody Denuvo infesting it. Why?! There's no value to it anymore! Also still has forced Bethesda account linking, despite that launcher having died. What a waste.

    Assuming you bought it: Is there a cracked version to make it usable?

    Best thing to do is not to buy such games. Write a mail to the developers/publishers saying DRM took away all your interest in the game. Don't buy, don't pirate, don't play. Really: If enough people did that, Denuvo and the like would be history two weeks later.
    Did YouTube change its design again? I swear, it looks different; the video title font has changed, and the description is now right next to the views and upload date.
    Just looks so cramped now.

    Voting season soon, here in Sydney, and I keep getting pamphlets from Aussie Christian Lobby demonising Trent Zimmerman because he didn't vote for a "Religious Discrimination Bill" and voted to repeal s.38 of the "Sex Discrimination Act".
    RichardTheKing
    RichardTheKing
    Ironically, all this makes me WANT to vote for this guy, since religion is inherently intolerant and scummy and I'd love to see it disappear. Thanks for letting me know, ACL, you cultist morons!
    RichardTheKing
    RichardTheKing
    "Does Trent Zimmerman's attack on religious communities accord with your values?"
    HELL YES IT DOES - far more than a dumb old book condoning killing homosexuals and genocides and commanding believers to feel persecuted when they're the major power in goddamn USA and Australia.

    "..religion is inherently intolerant and scummy..."
    Intolerant? I know of only one intolerant great religion in our day, and it is not that one, unless it contradicts its values. Don't confuse practiced and intimately lived religion with boorish politics disguised and falsely passed off as religion.
    FE:Three Houses...Byleth's got multiple Divine Pulse charges to rewind time, yes? Then why not rewind enough to save Jeralt? To stop himself from being attacked by Thales at the end of Ch. 12, which directly leads to a five-year coma? IDIOT.
    RichardTheKing
    RichardTheKing
    Seeing such temporal manipulators not using their powers to avoid dreadful outcomes irritates me, since it's just so obvious and plot-hole-ish. Time lords like Byleth should be damn-near unstoppable, yet nope, try to Pulse once and fail to save Jeralt = "not even Pulse was enough to save him, it must be fate".
    RichardTheKing
    RichardTheKing
    And the cutscene directors seemingly forgot about it entirely for the Ch. 12-end cutscenes, since Byleth doesn't Pulse at all when the war starts...they could've at least had ONE LINE or something saying he'd already used all his available Pulses up (even if that didn't happen in the playable battle), but noooo.
    RichardTheKing

    This makes me lose my suspension of disbelief, for sure, time lords not abusing time.
    Hopefully the same flaw doesn't repeat in FE Warriors in June...
    Why is my Switch's clock like 3.5 minutes fast? It says 8:50 am, when my laptop and phone both say 8:46 am...

    And yes "Synchronise Clock via Internet" is On, with Time Zone set to Sydney, Melbourne.
    T
    Takokeshi
    It does that. and if you are blocking Nintendo servers then it can't sync the clock.
    The Catholic Church needs to have all its exemptions revoked - taxes, being allowed to discriminate, etc.
    Kinda shitty how just being a religion allows it to maintain legal exceptions like these; goddamn cult.
