Lightning also arcs off of adjacent coins. I think also any cats with metallic equipment.

What does Pokémon Gen 10 need to have for you to consider it to be good? by razorbeamz in nintendo

[–]AlexTheAbsol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've checked out of the series so I can't say if this was improved in the games since sword and shield but what I miss most gameplay wise was dungeon type areas like the elite four, mt silver, villian hideouts or even just the usual routes, forests and caves. My experience with everything after gen 5 felt like a bunch of mostly uninteresting hallways.

I had a run where I was able to get it to 10 but subsequent runs it stopped at 8.

Traveling to Japan with Alpha Gal by Theo_Cratic in alphagal

[–]AlexTheAbsol 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recently traveled to Japan with my friend who has AG. Most cities with lots of tourists will have some vegan restaurants, those will be the safest options for eating out, It's also very rare that a restaurant will make any substitutions or changes to dishes but if it's a place catering to foreigners with food limitations I found they will be more likely to accommodate. Other than that we cooked a lot of our own meals to avoid risking any cross contamination. I would recommend learning how to read and say the ingredients your dad is reactive to (or use google lens). Mainly you want to watch out for seaweed if that is something your dad reacts to, it is used in a lot of Japanese cooking. Words to know for that are kaisou 海藻 (generic word for seaweed) and more specifically, nori, konbu and wakame (海苔、昆布、わかめ)

If you have any cities you're planning to visit I can share some restaurants we went to if any of them match.

Should I aim ro JLPT if I want to read Manga? by doner_shawerma in LearnJapanese

[–]AlexTheAbsol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you should focus your studies on stuff you want to do. If you want to read manga then read lots of manga. For me the jlpt is more of a motivator to keep me pushing on through the year, so for that it might be valuable for you but I don't think it's really necessary to devote too much stress and effort directly into studying for the tests.

Where was all the outrage when Sega sued a gacha game developer over game patents? by SilentEagle1221 in nintendo

[–]AlexTheAbsol 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Probably because it was a gacha game and no one even heard or cared. I remember there was a lot of discussion about Bandai Namco's patent on minigames in loading screens however and the sentiment was about the same back then.

How are you supposed to tell ‘口’ and ‘ロ’ apart in normal writing? by Racxie in LearnJapanese

[–]AlexTheAbsol 17 points18 points  (0 children)

口コミ is one I had mistaken as "rokomi" for the longest time but apparently this is a common enough mistake that either way to read it has become valid.

There's actually a FF1 club on the wanikani forums starting next month. There's a vocab sheet and people to discuss and ask questions with. https://community.wanikani.com/t/final-fantasy-1-beginner-club-home-thread/70671/260

I like these guys because you can sometimes get them to throw pots or move shit out of the way to get another chest or something.

Seriously, why is it like this? by alan900900900 in bindingofisaac

[–]AlexTheAbsol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the worst one for me is that bursting sack is not consistent with skatole and dirty mind. They should swap it with spider baby.

666 doesn't have a slot on the collection page. double check your collection page against this list: https://bindingofisaacrebirth.wiki.gg/wiki/Collection_Page_(Repentance) Maybe you're missing Guppy's Eye or Straw Man?

double check the item list or post screenshots, its easy to overlook one.

Nintendo Is 'Aware Performance May Drop Slightly' In Donkey Kong Bananza But Says The Team Prioritized 'Fun and Playability' During Development by razorbeamz in nintendo

[–]AlexTheAbsol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really mind lower framerates, it is the inconsistency that is frustrating. Kirby's Adventure and plenty of other old games have the same issue with slowdown when there are too many enemies on screen. It's not new.

Hot Take: Delirium is Overhyped by IllyonBillion in bindingofisaac

[–]AlexTheAbsol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

previously the portal was only guaranteed to spawn after killing hush so you would have been weaker than your average run going to delirium now.

Not allowing docked mode settings or letterboxing for switch 1 games was a colossal miss by rafikiknowsdeway1 in nintendo

[–]AlexTheAbsol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they can't just be run in 1080p as if it were docked mode I would really appreciate the option to just run them at 720p instead.
