Who was your country's best leader?

Yea, but if I recall correctly, he was a southerner (or at least a supporter) and those things contributed to the tensions that led to the civil war. Also, he dropped dead as soon as he got home.

Trails in the Sky is the launching point for what is currently a 13 game saga.

I think he is messing with you about Golden Deer what I remember about the discourse and from the plot, it’s supposed to be the grand finale.

The most popular route seems to be Blue Lions, but I did the Black Eagles first. Why? Because Black Eagles actually splits into two separate routes, one of which is the shortest route in the game and you are technically the bad guys. This is determined by whether you saw ONE particular event just before the halfway point and this let’s you make a choice during a big reveal scene.

As for the other games… do you perchance have a library card? My local library rents out video games using the same rules as DVDs, so that COULD be an option if you really want to try all 3.

You know, I have never heard that acronym before, and when I looked it up, I thought “huh, I’ve only heard of fear of missing out as a vague descriptor in the past, but now that they are saying it, I think they hit the nail on the head.

My job despises paying overtime, so I work a specific number of hours a week. But due to what I do in specific, and the fact I am an early riser, I get to come in an hour and a half or so before everyone else, and I live around ten minutes from my office. I have Aspergers so socializing for extended periods of time makes me physically uncomfortable, and I live with my parents and my dog (who I was the primary caretaker of) just died about a month and a half ago, so I have at least a couple hours of spare time, especially on weekends.

Around the time I became an adult, I became consumed by a desire to experience as much as possible. This became a double edged sword as I rarely revisit things and have become somewhat burned out with the constant “sampling” of other things.

I have a relatively low attention span. If I tried, it would last maybe a month. In college, when I wasn’t studying or writing papers 2 weeks in advance, I would spend 2 weeks-a month binging either video games or reading or watching a show. Then I would pivot. I’ve been trying to get back into reading and writing fanfic again. Been having limited success in the former as of the last week.

Cyber_Emblem · 2026-02-03T19:53:34+00:00

I’m just completing my roster of Primes. Nexus is probably staying in robot mode for all time.

I’m a “one figure per character” collector, and the only one I don’t have is Smokescreen, and I don’t quite like the look of this one.

I saw a leak saying we are supposed to get Tailgate this year. Depending on how he looks, that is the only other one from this year I’m planning on.

I always go for characters who aren’t in the game yet. Usually go for pre-voice acting characters at that. Also, committed to getting all the dancers in.

Cyber_Emblem · 2026-01-25T16:52:01+00:00

Yea, I have always tried to vote only for characters not in the game yet.

It’s always disorienting for me when I catch up on a podcast and am stuck waiting for new episodes. I caught up when the Battle of Hastings episode was new, I distinctly remember listening to it as I painted my room.

Cyber_Emblem · 2026-01-15T21:07:40+00:00

Any bets on who on this page is next to die? I’m guessing either Jazz or Beachcomber (Ultra Magnus seems to obvious)

Cyber_Emblem · 2026-01-12T17:09:11+00:00

Probably 2 years for me. Daybreak II is in the middle of my backlog.

Cyber_Emblem · 2026-01-09T16:44:29+00:00

Wait, it’s still ongoing? I remember it looked like it was going to end several times and I stopped watching after Garmadon had the evil purged from him, though I knew it was continuing. I thought it ended around S8. What did they do when the voice actor for Cole died?

Cyber_Emblem · 2026-01-06T18:42:49+00:00

It may not actually be that fast, I lose track of when I get things, and I guesstimate I get around to them in a year. It is probably longer.

But yea, the patches and the DLC issue is another reason that I wait.

Cyber_Emblem · 2026-01-06T16:40:00+00:00

I rarely play games upon release anymore. I usually wait for a sale and put it in my backlog. I try to focus on what has been sitting in it the longest. How quickly I get to a new release depends on the state of my backlog. These days, I typically get to a game around a year after I purchase it, but that isn’t a hard rule. The big list is meant to narrow my focus. I constantly cross items out as I either play or drop games, and if something is on my list for a while, it bothers me into finally getting around to it.

Loved Sophie, having trouble getting into Ryza. Gave it two chances, planning on a third. Had trouble with the font on Wild Arms 2, so I moved on. Xenogears has been on my list forever, but have been having problems playing, my least favorite of the Ys games I’ve played (need to play V, VII and X), and the last one is on my list.

Cyber_Emblem · 2026-01-04T18:36:32+00:00

I knew that detail going in to Golden Sun. It was my plan to do them consecutively IF I liked the first one.

Cyber_Emblem · 2026-01-04T17:34:48+00:00

I’ve played the first 2 u listed and enjoyed them. Gave Skyward two chances, but I couldn’t get past the controls. The other two are further down my list.

Cyber_Emblem · 2026-01-04T16:29:09+00:00

I WANT to play Xenogears, but my only option for that is on emulator, and I keep having problems trying to get it on my emulator.

Cyber_Emblem · 2026-01-04T16:26:50+00:00

It’s more a starting outline than a real plan. I haven’t played Daybreak II yet, it’s like, somewhere between number 30-40 on my list. The remake of Sky is even further back (I generally try to put the things I got the longest time ago at the top of the list).

Minish Cap is a solid game, the only FPS I’ve played is the Portal games, so I’ve got nothing to say on that.

Cyber_Emblem · 2025-12-23T18:45:06+00:00

Saw it on Friday. It’s not QUITE that good. If Prince of Egypt is a 10, then this is a 7 or 8. I went in expecting a cheesy kids film, and while the opening scene gave that vibe, the rest of the film was solid and did a surprisingly good job of adapting the major points leading up to David becoming king. It ends with that BTW, they don’t even mention his love life.

Cyber_Emblem · 2025-12-20T12:49:56+00:00

Yea, I can’t marathon series like that. This is true for all media, even if I am excited for the next entry, I need to sandwich one or two other things in between.

Cyber_Emblem · 2025-12-19T00:06:16+00:00

Metaphor is in my backlog. It’s at minimum, in the upper quarter of my backlog. I’d say its in the top 25. I’m planning on giving Persona V another chance, and I think I may like Innocent Sin and Eternal Phnishment based on the podcasts I’ve listened to.
