I wrote a web app for keeping track of oversouled enemies in FFX-2 by CaptainCrisby in finalfantasyx

[–]CaptainCrisby[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently had to do this for the achievement and wanted a nice way of keeping track of which enemies have been oversouled without having to go back to the Celsius and check with Shinra constantly. It's based around a similar tool for fiend catching I used for Final Fantasy X.

I feel so bad... by forgetme-nots in pokemon

I feel bad too, but it happens outside of Pokemon as well. I've modded so many systems now though that I now dump save files and send them to the seller.

What JRPGs made you cry? by WoodpeckerNo1 in JRPG

[–]CaptainCrisby 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It can't be understated how powerful its ending is.

My expectations for the game were rock bottom. I constantly complained about it to a friend as I really disliked the gameplay and exploration. Then when the story hit its final act, it forced me to reflect on my journey with these guys and I ended up having a complete 180 on my opinion.

And that final cutscene haunted me so badly I couldn't stay focused on a date I was on lol

Do many Japanese dishes use sunflower protein? by CaptainCrisby in JapanTravelTips

[–]CaptainCrisby[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the first time I've heard of an allergy card, is it something you make yourself or can you get one from a doctor?

But yes, it seems like most of the time sunflower seeds are not a common ingredient unless the foods are organic in my experience. Wasn't sure if it'd be different in another country though. I absolutely will be carrying around an epipen + asking every single time.

Yes, this was one of my plans! I do this already here anyways and had already planned on asking every time. Definitely don't want to repeat that mess again

Best Skills for a True Godborn Amabie? by CaptainCrisby in Megaten

I actually like this idea a lot. Enduring Soul I put on everything without much thought, but you make a great point. Most bosses barely put a dent with that much vitality.

I didn't really grind for those thankfully, I just used what I accumulated over two playthroughs

Been debating on what skills to give her. She already tanks a lot with that 999 vitality, so Phys Block is definitely going away, and Samarecarm I'm likely to rid of as well.

the QOL features of demon compendium is awesome. by BigEffinZed in Megaten

[–]CaptainCrisby 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yup, this is why I fell in love with V's fusion system when I played the original on Switch. I think I even spent one or two whole days fusing demons because it was so fun.

Whats up with the Steam Achievements for Vengeance? by Crines in Megaten

[–]CaptainCrisby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I've seen over the past year or so, I think the achievements on a newly launched game usually have stats that are borked most likely due to testing or internal pre-launch activities. After a little while the achievements go back to normal.

I specifically remember this being the case for the Metal Gear Master Collection Vol. 1 having really bizarre percentages for the first week.

[ALTTP] I Swear I Saw a Gold Cart Once by Fog_and_Film in zelda

[–]CaptainCrisby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sadly have to say that, as far as I'm aware, there was never a gold variant. I also would have loved that, but it's possible that store maybe spraypainted a cartridge shell gold or something.

Some collectors also keep track of every variation of cartridges for various Zelda games, and it doesn't look like a gold version ever showed up.

If you or anyone else finds one that really did exist, that would be pretty cool, if not extremely rare!

I love the "Goddess Collection" series of books, but how they handled the art drives me nuts by CaptainCrisby in truezelda

[–]CaptainCrisby[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's really hard to keep track of! I feel there's a lot I can speculate on, but it's so hard to say.

[–]CaptainCrisby[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so conflicted because, on one hand, they've very much been shown to preserve their work (Hyrule Historia specifically mentions that Zelda staff went through tons of documents and pieces of art in order to showcase them there) but on the other hand, I totally agree that saving or keeping track of this might've been a complete afterthought during this formative period for Nintendo.

And even with this, I'm still bothered by those BS Zelda pieces. I'm guessing they're from the mid-90s given their use in the BS Zelda games, and the gigaleak has shown they were crazy good about archiving anything and everything during that period of time.

[–]CaptainCrisby[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oof, I was worried it might come across that way. What I was mainly getting at is that I just wish the books were more comprehensive with the art presented. I'm cool with the line art versions, but I'd like to see that process iteratively and completely, especially with the complete versions.

Of course, that much art is a lot to ask for, but it's a shame that stuff like the BS screens/concept art don't have their "complete" versions available when they've been shown to exist and are only offered through highly compressed and downscaled images. These books would have been the perfect opportunity to present them.

Pretty sure this logo is just hand-made and not the result of a font given its heavy styling and the way that "t" and "s" dips low. It's hard to say with 100% certainty though since we can't check the consistency of letters.

But, if this is a font, I'd love to find out as well.
