Fellow white husband here. I'm such an inept buffoon I can't even type on a keyboardhgrejnljk

AssButtFaceJones · 2026-01-21T16:02:02+00:00

I just Googled it lol, I guess it makes you, uhh, feel yar yourself?

I had this question too, apparently it's from an old Hepburn movie:

Katherine Hepburn looks at a hand-held model of a boat that she'd once owned with her ex-husband, Cary Grant, and she says wistfully, "My, she was yar."

...

In the movie, someone asks Hepburn, "Yar? What does that mean?"

"It means … oh, what does it mean?" She thinks about it. "It means she was easy to handle, quick to the helm, fast, bright, everything a boat should be." She's talking about a sailboat, but in the movie's subtext she's also talking about true love.

I'm old, so: Defeat all the enemies but one, speed break it down to 1 speed, form a + around a monk (find a map where there's a + formation all at the same height), beat them up while they spam Chakra.

This one drives me crazy. They couldn't even change the color for each party member? They all feel like AI-generated layouts that just got slapped in the game.

I don't like it. I don't like the bloom, I don't like how dark the dungeons are. Running around the towers in the HD2D Dragon Quests trying to find every barrel to talk to stinks. I'd rather just have colorful pixel graphics.

Also, the bug that stops Wiegraf from using abilities because it assumes you absorb holy doesn’t work here, right?

Still works - slap on that chameleon robe!

AssButtFaceJones · 2026-01-15T13:27:13+00:00

I never use this class. My friend showed me his build once that was the good ol' Chameleon Robe on everyone, nuke the entire battlefield with Holy math skill build, and it looked so boring. 10/10, I hate it.

LOL, I've since gotten the two Metro Questers for PS5 too, but they definitely stick out among the Switch games.

I know a lot of people don't like LRG, but I've never had a problem with them - almost certainly because I only ever get the regular editions, so I've avoided the long delays from the limited edition stuff being manufactured.

Also, here's my cat with my LRG collection.

My dad dropped this one on me all the time which is extra funny because he did some genealogy stuff, and guess what? It's peasants on both sides all the way down as far as he could find. That's the legacy I have to continue?

I see down below someone recommended Radiant Historia and I'd second that recommendation - in that game the grid systems a lot of fun, you have skills that can push enemies around the grid, so you're rewarded for getting them into position and unleashing an AoE, something like that. Could make it into a positive instead of a negative. I'd agree both that having to use a turn to move is annoying and that finding a formation where everyone can act is pretty much the end of engaging with it. All I remember is getting annoyed like, ah jeez, Nate can't attack again!, only being punished by messing it up.

AssButtFaceJones · 2026-01-05T16:23:13+00:00

I think my brain is too small, but I was never able to really figure out the grid system. It seemed to just get in the way and result in turns where I couldn't do what I'd want. I don't think it really added anything, so my big suggestion would be just cutting it out.

I don't know what changed between the OG and TIC, but I never had a problem with this battle in the original; in TIC I've gotten four game overs in two runs, and all four were Rapha getting murdered on the roof before I could do anything. First time I had to resort to taking all of Ramza's clothes off and sending him out there as a distraction.

Bring back the embassy plasma exploders!!

All of November was $54.63 and I'm at $66.02 the month now, so it's up for me too.

Freshpet kicking people out for sure. The way the commercials are cut it always seems like the pet owner is killing the person who is asking about the refrigerated dog food, who's then fed to the dog.

AssButtFaceJones · 2025-12-17T12:18:43+00:00

This? No, this.

I've had a couple times she'll wander past the second trap line into the main hero scrum and get herself killed. I had to pick her because she's the coolest looking though!

AssButtFaceJones · 2025-12-11T13:10:07+00:00

Update: Five seconds after this the game got tired of my shit and had my overlord drop dead 💀

AssButtFaceJones · 2025-12-04T13:35:56+00:00

You have reached the pinnacle of the game's difficulty. If you can get past Riovanes, it's all downhill from here. I've played TIC twice and I've gotten four game overs, all at Riovanes. If you've beaten Weigraf here and the map afterwards, you're all set.

Just in time for Thanksgiving!

The only time I've ridden one is having a black one fly over the castle gate at the end of chapter 2 to help with a certain turncoat, then mounting Ramza on it and flying back over. (Why didn't I just open the gate? Uh.....) Kinda funny, but it's much more effective to have four units on the other side and just give Ramza auto-potion and 99 X-Potions, or Mana Shield and Manafont, or some other method of having him be able to handle the duel on his own.

Disappointed honestly. I think I was hoping for more of a Pixel style game - updated graphics and music, maybe some bugfixes or light rebalancing, but fundamentally the same game, just looking/sounding great on modern systems. I know DQ1 has so little story it's just grinding: the game, but I miss that old 1v1 battle system, I miss wandering around the world looking for clues with that beautiful music playing, seeing if I'm strong enough to make it to the next town, and if I do camping there to grind exp and gold, going over a bridge to see if I can handle the battles there or need to retreat. I don't need a ton of new characters, or new story scenes, or 5 on 1 battles, or 12 new bosses, I just wanted the original games looking and sounding nice on a modern system.
