@NISAmerica Definitely a little bummed at how quickly the prologue was over, but it’s fine. We’re less than a month away from the full release anyway, and it was a fun little taste. We can’t always be spoiled like we were with how long Sky 1st Chapter’s prologue demo was.

@chu787pr @NISAmerica To be fair, they address her strong accent in the moment, since both Kevin and Mirabel’s accents got stronger when talking to each other. Which is actually a thing that happens with some people when they’re run into people with similar accents to their own.

@ChrisHarihar @Dave_Horwitz “Handies feel good in a place like this.”

@ReluctantBadger @DMC_Ryan That was when Sony was riding high after the PS2’s success and essentially said that people would want a PS3 so much that they would get a second job to afford it.

@Goob999 @RyanThomasOk @TamsinVenrith @dropout “Ironic” was likely meant here in so far as the accidental use of the slur likely did more help than harm because it brought attention to the issue to a bunch of people that didn’t realize it was a slur at all. So… kinda ironic.

#OSHINOKO just out here continuing to break hearts and call out horrible people. Episode 6 was phenomenal.

@jaa0109 @jasonschreier Obviously I’m not Jason, but if the demo is any indication… it’s still random battles all day, every day. From my 3 hours in the demo, the encounter rate seems lower, but still high enough to be annoying.

@Synersist @pocketpingpong @Dr_Hat89 @ZweihanderRPG They still would get their dex bonus for damage… so unless you’re playing as a monk with less than 14 dex, an AC of 12 guarantees at least one damage. With the damage reduction of 2, the dex bonus of at least 2 cancels it out. Now *18* AC would make a lvl 4 monk useless here.

@redditFFXIV Are there balance issues with certain jobs? Yes. Could some things use rebalancing. Yup. Is this at all close to the issue people making it out to be? No. And this is coming from the unfortunate fool whose 90s are MCH, PAL, and SUM…

[GrubbsterGaming @KyleMGrubb]

@ray57913 @JonJForsythe @YisteyBjolkovic To be fair, 2 dead, 2 a single death save from dead, and three characters close to 0 while still in combat… sounds like one bad round away from a potential TPK to me. That’s a bit past stakes merely getting raised.

Well, #StrangerThings stuck the landing. Emotional, powerful and epic, Part 2, and Season 4 on the whole, knocked it out of the park like never before. The wait for the final season is gonna be agonizing, and if it can stay at this level, the sky’s the limit. What a blast.

[GrubbsterGaming @KyleMGrubb]

@redditFFXIV This is a great showing of solidarity for people affected, but let’s not pretend that this is really going to change anything. Nobody in a position of power is going to act because people are standing around in a virtual space. I support this, but let’s be realistic.

[GrubbsterGaming @KyleMGrubb]

@crazlika @redditFFXIV To be fair, it’s less that nobody will see it, and more that nobody in any position to do anything about it will care. I’m all for people doing it, but do you really think senators and the like are gonna think “They’re standing around in an online game! We have to fix this!”

[GrubbsterGaming @KyleMGrubb]

@SorAmaterasu @Amirys21 @redditFFXIV Except legitimately nobody’s going to do anything. These people are standing around in a video game. They aren’t gathering in the streets. There’s no way to spin any danger. Someone would need a real reason to demand that personal info from SE, and there simply isn’t one.

[GrubbsterGaming @KyleMGrubb]

@GameOverGreggy I suddenly lost my cat two weeks ago, and so I know exactly what you’re talking about, Greg. It’s so painful when we realize just how much our day to day lives have changed now without them. Just a constant reminder of their absence. But it does slowly get easier. I’m so sorry.

Unfortunately, the #Playstation2sdays Fatal Frame 2 stream today has been cancelled. I’ll be back tomorrow for #Playstation1ndsdays and more Lunar! Have a great day, everybody!

[GrubbsterGaming @KyleMGrubb]

Hey all! We’re streaming #BuriedStars again at https://t.co/czX60UajHx. Hope you guys can stop by and enjoy this deadly popularity contest!

@silentdante @rpgfancom @NISAmerica Also, rereleases of older Legend of Heroes games here in the west may be slightly complicated by the fact that those translations were done by XSEED and not NISA. Not sure how that would work behind the scenes.

[GrubbsterGaming @KyleMGrubb]

@silentdante @rpgfancom @NISAmerica Trails from Zero (and it’s sequel, Trails to Azure) were released in Japan after the Trails in the Sky games and before the Trails of Cold Steel games, and are finally getting official localizations. Trails is a subseries of Legend of Heroes and all take place on the same world.

@gsb4691 @AnneCirelli @casyr @RoArquette While that’s certainly true, I don’t think a person’s pain is invalidated by the existence of others whose pain is greater. There’s always someone worse off. Pain doesn’t need to become a competition about who is most hurt and victimized.
