I’d recommend the dlc. It’s fun to see the characters again. I got lucky and on my first time through the game the second dlc released so I was able to play them both kinda in my run.
- Comment on Most under-utilized consoles? 20 hours ago:
Honestly everything sega.
The master system had a built in maze game which was incredible to me as a kid. The Genesis/Mega Drive was fantastic but its add ons sega Cd and 32x were barely utilized. Saturn and Dreamcast both abandoned far too quickly.
I recently played my first Saturn game and honestly had my mind blown knowing what the competition was doing at the time.
Gamegear was dope too when you compared it to its contemporary.

So hot take here, while the side quest activities are filler the lore they add is great. There are some very touching moments at the end of side quest chains. Especially Torgals chain. Made the side quests worth it in my mind.
I also ended up getting the dlc for the game which I seldom ever do I just enjoyed it so much and wanted more. While the rpg elements are light. I really enjoyed rocking the different powers in combat and felt very flexible on my builds.

I’ll have to look into seeing if this can get some of the DQ9 stuff. Thanks for making my brain work.

Thanks. I can def do that on my phone. Don’t know much about how to do it on Apple TVs or Rokus but I very seldom use them for YouTube anymore anyway.
- Comment on YouTube removes 'gender identity' from hate speech policy 5 days ago:
Any suggestions where to go? I mostly watch warhammer painting content such as tutorials for techniques I don’t know and video game content either long form retrospectives to fall asleep or guides for what I am playing. I’ve tried to get off YouTube completely but these specific niches are all that’s left for me.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 hands-on reveals a proper generational upgrade, though its biggest new idea remains unproven 5 days ago:
Idk about your opinion on a touch screen. For both my switch and my steam deck, over 99% of their usage has been docked. A touch screen doesn’t do anything for gamers like me. I do use a keyboard and mouse very often with my deck too.
That said the joycon “mouse” looks way too small and uncomfortable.

Actually from the prices I’ve seen online they are about 5 /10 dollars more than digital versions.

I bought a single share when the ipo happened figuring it would be funny. Meant to sell when it was at 200 and forgot. Just checked. Still funny, sucks I missed out on $100 but I figure it’s going to keep going down. I’ll keep my one share. Reminds me to look.

- Comment on GM blocks dealership from installing Apple CarPlay retrofit kits in EVs 2 weeks ago:
Oh I agree so much. I’ve had 3 VW tiguans and they’ve progrssively gotten worse in quality. (Leases an 18 ,20, and now 24) each time the lease early buy back offer worked heavily in my favor and I am no longer in a position in life where I need to lease a vehicle so this 24 will be the last lease, but honestly my last VW as well.
On the topic of those dumb lights. The dealership I was at had a “price breakdown” for features and claimed those lights ‘only’ added 5 dollars a month to the monthly payment. I mean I know car dealerships will do everything for a penny but that just set me off.
- Comment on GM blocks dealership from installing Apple CarPlay retrofit kits in EVs 2 weeks ago:
It’s silly but I have no interest in buying or driving cars that don’t support CarPlay. I’m used to it. It is safer for me to drive with a gps/voice control system I am used to. When I’ve had to rent cars that don’t support it it has been awful.
I would feel the same if I was an android user with Android auto.
I do not think every car needs their own system when one’s based on the devices we already use exist. Pisses me off.
I also wish someone would make a base model style EV I don’t need all these stupid extra features. I recently test drove a VW EV and wasn’t amused with the RGB door lighting. What a waste of money. I just want a vehicle to get from A to B.

- Comment on Are modern Final Fantasy games bad? 5 weeks ago:
FWIW 16 isn’t a basic medieval fantasy setting.
- Comment on Are modern Final Fantasy games bad? 5 weeks ago:
16 is absolutely fantastic. I haven’t read any reviews for it so I don’t know what they are saying but I had an absolute blast playing it. Had a smile on my face from beginning to end. Well, I enjoyed it atleast I found the ending very sad.

This isn’t correct. It’s the folks making items and areas with the dev toolkits according to the article.

- Comment on Getting a Steam Deck to emulate retro games? 1 month ago:
It’s honestly all I use mine for. There are very few PC games that I play that feel good on the deck but the majority of retro games feel excellent. I also seldom use mine as a portable I have it docked to one TV or another to work.
Just for clarity because I don’t want people to think I’m saying the steam deck is a bad PC gaming substitute the games that I play specifically don’t work well without a mouse and a keyboard. I play a lot of Rogue likes like dungeon crawl, stone soup and I play a lot of Dwarf Fortress and I haven’t found a way to get comfortable controller schemes that remotely compared to just using my mouse and keyboard
- Comment on Best way to turn off people and get lower tips 1 month ago:
I live in a state where our servers make state minimum wage. 16+ dollars an hour. They still ask for tips. So the fed minimum doesn’t really change anything in making up the payroll shortfall.
- Comment on Interactive Fiction Games Could Make A Comeback With This E-reader Handheld Console 1 month ago:
I’ve never heard of crowd supply before. I presume it works similar to kickstarter. Is there a reason creators are moving away from KS? I know a lot of boardgames moved from it as well.
