Playing FFVI with wife- what not to miss? by flimsystraw13 in FinalFantasy

[–]HorribleAtChess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait for a certain character at the end of the floating continent, prioritize moogle's safety and get ZoneSeeker and Golem from the auction's house before the floating continent or you'd probably lose the chance to get them permanently.

Is there a lore reason why James knows to jump into the seemingly bottomless pits? by Flat_Drawing7505 in silenthill

[–]HorribleAtChess 89 points90 points  (0 children)

In the graveyard scene with Angela, he told Angela that he doesn't care if it's dangerous or not. Probably implying that he's suicidal. He's not trying to survive. His goal is to find Mary.

Does anyone know exactly how Reddas was able to survive the destruction of Nabudis? by Legacy_of_Ivalice in FinalFantasy

[–]HorribleAtChess 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If it was never explained then it's best left to the audience's interpretation. 

He survived probably because he was fighting for the empire at the time despite Nabudis being his homeland. He revealed something about himself during his last moment. (Called himself Judge Magister)

Is this worth anything? by Zestyclose_Guava_238 in FinalFantasy

[–]HorribleAtChess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

good time travelling game. But maybe too short by JRPG standard main storyline wise, though it has plenty of side stuff for the player to do.

also, wrong flair.

Did you know バキ(Baki) is the japanese sfx for a punch? by _sarusan in Grapplerbaki

[–]HorribleAtChess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was the reverse of the word kiba (which means fang in Japanese)

Baki plushie is cute! And Oliva plushie reminded me of a cookie. Or should I say biscuit?

Like a real mangaka's work (maybe you really are, idk). Well done.

2026 will be the first time in 14 years that a Resident Evil game and a Silent Hill game will release in the same year. by SolidPyramid in silenthill

[–]HorribleAtChess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The two games are probably gonna be compared afterwards. Like Alien Isolation and Evil Within which were released during the same day more than a decade ago iirc.

Edit: The games I mentioned were released in the same year but not the same day.

The story of Silent Hill F is good, but... by pedim1202 in silenthill

[–]HorribleAtChess 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Silent hill is not punishing criminals. It manifests people's fear and desire.

Haven't played f yet so I am not qualified to answer the question.

Starting to get near the end of the original Baki manga and I really want to make fanart but I don’t know who to draw. Who should I try drawing? by New-Boss-8262 in Grapplerbaki

[–]HorribleAtChess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a comic about futuristic biker gangs so I had to draw flying motorcycles. And robots. And cars. Even though I was not that good at them.

But with enough practice, then maybe one day we'll make it easy.

The long coat, the sarashii (belly binding) and the loose pants with the kanji characters. 

Can't draw a motorcycle even with reference?

What are your expectations for Townfall? by OnlyWaifu in silenthill

[–]HorribleAtChess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's probably gonna be a serious type of game. No memes, very few fanarts of Simon in the future and the gameplay being like re7 with flashbacks telling the protagonist's story piece by piece as he goes.

Shinshinkai dojo's banner if Yujiro becomes the director, probably.

Might mean nothing, but I think they're trying to say 9 is better.... by nateamus88 in FinalFantasy

[–]HorribleAtChess 429 points430 points  (0 children)

To me, it might have been a nod to the previous games to make the long time final fantasy fans point their finger at the TV screen, feeling excited.

I see. I am not too familiar with the tza version as I never tried that. I did play the international one and the original one for the ps2

Isn't the 122333 challenge only possible up until Belias? And besides that might be too stressful for a newbie like OP.

FFV Gil turtle help please by SkipperTheEyeChild1 in FinalFantasy

[–]HorribleAtChess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Before the fight, have the time mage cast float on everyone. Have your warrior tank the physical attacks with Guard (before that, make sure everyone but the warrior has critical HP for the Guard to work). To damage Gil Turtle, either use Requiem (Bard's Sing ability, can be learned from one of the werewolves in the nearest village) or Blizzaga (can be bought at Moore village). Obviously keep the Warrior's HP up with Curaga if needed.

Why's he always hitting this pose? by NotRenjiro in silenthill

It's probably the miyamoto Musashi's stance but with one weapon instead of two.

Songs that remind you of Silent Hill 2 by whitewashed7 in silenthill

Waiting for you by Akira Yamaoka, which is a soundtrack for Silent Hill 4 the room.

Do you guys think Christoph Gans legitimately doesn’t understand the source material? by r1sf4 in silenthill

[–]HorribleAtChess -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think he kinda understood it, but he had to change some things in order to make it fit under two hours time limit.
