- Comment on Nobody who complains about video games costing more than $60 ever considers inflation 4 days ago:
This is definitely a controversial take, but maybe there’s some truth to it. (A price hike like $90 Mario Kart is way too much however). I think the issue here is that purchasing power has decreased for the majority of people over the last few years as inflation has increased whilst wages have not kept pace. And it really doesn’t help when triple A games increase their prices whilst releasing in a buggy state - people don’t see any benefit of a $10 increase to that game when it doesn’t offer $10 more value than it would have done a year prior.
Sure, corporations need to recoup the high cost of development - but then perhaps their costs wouldn’t be nearly as high if they didn’t pay millions to their CEOs. Indie devs can successfully put out (usually much more interesting and creative) games for a fraction of the cost.
- Comment on Final Fantasy 3 DS – 2006 Developer Interview - shmuplations.com 1 week ago:
The DS remake of FF3 was my first Final Fantasy game, and I remember loving it. The chibi artstyle was really appealing to me at the time. I’m pretty sure I managed to cheese one of the late game bosses by using a certain class (ninja?) that got me a lucky 9999 damage hit. After that point I was severely under levelled, and got stuck at the final dungeon with no way to back out.
I should replay it at some point! Or maybe the pixel remaster version (people seem to rate that higher?)

lust in our society is punished much more severely than violence and blood
Can you give an example? How does that relate to your story?

Actually, I am in really bad shape financially. I pay money to my ex-wife as part of our divorce settlement, among other bills… I just had no choice but to make you pay for lunch the other day. I’m really sorry.

I hear it’s amazing when the famous purple stuffed worm in flap-jaw space with the tuning fork does a raw blink on Hara Kiri Rock. I need scissors! 61!
- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 2 months ago:
FF VII Rebirth. I’m about 40 hours in, currently roaming around Gongaga. I’ve been trying to do all the side quests because they’re pretty well done and enjoyable. The Queens Blood card game is pretty fun too!
Not sure about Cait Sith’s moveset at the moment but maybe he’ll grow on me. I’ve just found out that he’s based on Scottish folklore which explains his accent!

- Comment on If I donate my testicles as a donor for whatever reason, and they have a child, is that child mine? 4 months ago:
Hhhhmmm my initial assumption was that the cells in your donated testicles would eventually be replaced by those with the host’s DNA. But apparently I’m wrong - after transplants you have to take immunosuppressants because the donated organs stay genetically foreign for the rest of your life. So yes, it seems like the sperm would carry your genes.

Lmao that’s amazing. If I were that person I’d had found it funny. Hopefully it’s not too embarrassing a memory for you!
- Comment on Like us, I wonder if other animals are kept awake by embarrassing memories 4 months ago:
That’s fascinating. Does an animal finding an item they buried a week ago not constitute an episodic memory? Considering they’d basically have to retread their steps. Is ‘remembering the relevant information’ not akin to memory of an event?

Couldn’t you ask them to give you gift cards for places you might visit?
- Comment on It's kinda crazy that we willingly give money to companies in advance (say for gift vouchers and pre-orders) 5 months ago:
I think it’s mostly social convention - i.e. sometimes it’s not the ‘done thing’ to give someone money as it shows a lack of thoughtfulness perhaps. Gift cards are stopgap that make it look like you’ve put some effort into a gift.
