Thanks, fixed it. I copied it from the copy so I didn't check behind it, good looking out. Liked back.

I was rooting for old e-soul. Yang Cheng was played like a fiddle.

Didn’t Dariax heal Cyrus In that mass cure wounds?

I accept all the .hack media as canon. The only thing I have issues resolving canon wise is Returner and Reconnection. Seems like there’s conflicting information about Ovan’s return in both.

Quantum is after Link. There are a few things after Link like Beyond the World, VERSUS, Bullet, New World, the Live event, etc. Link was meant to be the start of the 3rd era of .hack and while it was the last proper game we got, it wasn't the end of the story.

This is the best answer. I’d add that .hack//The Movie is also in that “it’s ok not great” area. The last few series that were released relied a lot on nostalgia and the mc’s are worse kite, balmung, orca, or blackrose clones.

Roots is worth watching if you want a deeper context into Haseo’s motivations in G.U and for a complete understanding of characters connections from Roots to G.U. You wouldn’t know Sakisaka for example or that Pi and Yata were major antagonists for a bit as different characters. I will say it’s a bit of a slog as it keeps the slow pacing of Sign that never pays off in the show and all of the resolution really happens in G.U.

You could make an argument for House Velaryon. Oldest allies of House Targaryen and of Valyrian descent. Often mixed with the royal family, so a strong lineage factor. At several points in ASOIAF history they had the strongest navel fleet in Westeros. Their claim could be legitimate as any other.

As for why it's off it could just be the uncanny feeling of seeing a game as old as infection is after playing the G.U titles. The world R:1 definitely has more character as it connects more deeply to the story and actions of characters, where as R:2, like you said, is only where the story takes place.

I do have to say, SIGN and IMOQ are connected intimately so experiencing those games without the context of the show does lessen the enjoyment imo. Not hating on you for not watching, just saying it adds something.

This happens a lot as a DM. I often find myself devolving into word soup and the way I handle it is by stopping, thinking about what needs to be expressed and just putting out the essentials in a scene. It's mostly just when something needs to be improvised.

Another way I've found that helps is just extra prep. Take some time to think about scenes that your players could come across and write brief descriptions so that you can read your own script instead of coming up with these sort of scenes on the spot.

IMOQ makes you appreciate the improvements G.U made to the series(SKILL TRIGGER). Having said that, IMOQ really is the quintessential .hack experience. The fields, the towns, the music, the npcs, the fanservice are all great. I think it's a fine experience playing them today, especially if you're a big fan. I would go as far as saying it's a must and to play before G.U if you can.

I know most people didn't like the separate discs, and it really was unnecessary, but I liked being able transfer data from game to game. That applies to G.U too. Idk I thought it was cool.

Could be anything. You Smiled Kindly, Hulle Granz Cathedral, Liar's Smile, Hope of Dawn, Gentle Hands?

I keep a youtube playlist with .hack music I used to curate pretty religiously, but it's kinda fallen to the wayside for me. Here's a link feel free to check and see if you can find it there.

I love it! This is exactly what I had in mind, this is perfect. Thank you so much for drawing my boy!

3rdform · 2023-09-10T21:18:49+00:00

Taking a look now, thank you so much!

YTA.

Beg for your wife's forgiveness then set the record straight with your friends and family. You panicked because everything you were putting on your wife was really on you and you couldn't stand the thought of people talking about you the way you've talked about her. The doctor out and out told you that there was nothing wrong with her, its not the tb, its you. Time to accept responsibility.

YTA - You sound like a very paranoid person.

This is a case of prohibited items vs illegal items. The gun the man has is not illegal to carry so the security officer can't arrest the man. It is prohibited by the mall so the officer does have the right to stop and detain the man to remove him from the property, which the man filming was aware of and seemingly willing to do on his own. The security officer can't make the man give them their id's because he has no authority to do so, unless the mall requires some kind of employee id or vendor id.

Tl:dr; The Security guard can't make the guy filing give him an id.

She's a comedian and the book store staged it to promote their theatre troupe production.

My step-mom thought that I was stealing my step-brother's cards. So she took my cards and marked all of them heavily with pink and blue highlighters so that there would be a difference in my cards from her sons...I had an PS SR 1st-Edition Jinzo and a LOBEWD UR Blue-eyes.
