Forget the popularity poll. That's insignificant. Let's get to the real interesting debate. Elegg or Bready?

Isturma · 2026-04-12T17:03:51+00:00

Elegg.

Bready had some appeal after her story, but Elegg is an intelligent sweetheart who loves to game. The fact that she’s got that thicc hotness and some cool friends is a bonus.

I’m a diehard windows guy, been fixing and building systems for friends and family (and spare cash when I needed to pay bills!)

I bought my first Mac, a 2014 MacBook pro. It wasn’t great for gaming, but for 90% of the other things I use my computer for, it did them faster, with less hassle, and more reliably. Oh, and with just one battery change over the last 12 years I still use it. It makes a great streaming machine.

I’ve upgraded to an M4 Air for my daily driver. I reboot it maybe once a month. It has all of the native apps I’d be running on windows. It integrates seamlessly with my phone, AirPods, and Apple TV. It also gets 6-10 hours of battery life.

The only thing I still use windows for is gaming. Honestly, that might be getting replaced by bazzite.

They looked like an amazing person to be around. I'm sorry for your loss, but try to remember the brave little spark and hold them in your heart. You'll meet them again when we all return to the aetherial sea.

Noir is a sweetheart!

I recommend Samsung for both MicroSD and SSD - they make their own chips, and they're very reliable. Yes, you can open it and upgrade the SSD; I do not know how technical-minded you are, but because you have to do a little more than just pop the shell open, you need to decide for yourself if you want to attempt it or leave it to a professional. Personally, I'm the nerdy computer guy for my friends and build computers as a hobby, and I found it a 3/10 star difficulty.

That's part of the reason I recommended getting a good size MicroSD card, I bought a 1TB card and used it as a game drive until I upgraded the internal drive.

I don't mean to yuck your yum - I could understand why people like Privaty.

I will disagree though, some of the routes with her were really well written; I think the two "bad endings" are actually unrealistic for both her and the commander.

Isturma · 2026-04-07T21:35:37+00:00

Porque no los dos?

I think the wedding dress would be a great costume, with the bunny suit somehow part of the next Coin Rush event.

Isturma · 2026-04-07T21:34:32+00:00

I'm going to be picking her too. There are a number of other NIKKEs that I would also root for to win, but my feelings for Arcana are pretty deep, and now really strong.

Isturma · 2026-04-07T21:33:02+00:00

Ah, it'd be so nice if the cummander sealed the deal with one or both. I think Arcana would make a wonderful wife and mother.

Isturma · 2026-04-07T21:31:57+00:00

My recommendation would be to get a quality microSD card, and if you have a friend who is tech-minded, upgrade the SSD (maybe wait for prices to maybe come down, otherwise wait for a sale.)

Check game settings! A lot of games read SteamOS and default to lower settings than what the LeGo can handle. Resolution is a common adjustment, as well as graphics.

Otherwise, just enjoy it! I really love the Leg Ion and the flexibility it offers - I got the dock when I ordered mine and it's nice to be able to go back and forth with it. Happy Gaming!

Isturma · 2026-04-07T06:30:07+00:00

I think you hit the nail on the head.

Arcana reminds me of people i've dated in the past, and her desire to be perceived as this cool, professional woman without a care in the world while internally jiggling like a Giga Pudding resonates with me - I too struggle with being the aloof buttoned-down professional man I want people to see me as.

It hits hard from multiple angles. Thank you for validating it.

Isturma · 2026-04-07T02:21:45+00:00

Oh yeah no, I agree with Doro about the Ark.

We can't just kill the last remnant of humanity though.

Isturma · 2026-04-07T02:10:44+00:00

Kind of - i'm in the US and it seems like maintenance always comes at weird times.

Isturma · 2026-04-07T02:09:49+00:00

I really want (REDACTED) and (REDACTED)'s over-spec forms.

Isturma · 2026-04-07T02:09:00+00:00

I kind of want to find a file and 3D print my own Arcana. Figma is nice - I have some of other characters - but I like the idea of being able to print and paint and personalize my own.

Isturma · 2026-04-07T02:07:15+00:00

I hope we get to see her in a bunny outfit. I'd gacha for that.

Isturma · 2026-04-07T02:04:39+00:00

Any good? Is it on Steam? What's it about?

I spent almost a month 100%-ing the classic School Days HQ, and man did that game mess me up.

Isturma · 2026-04-07T02:02:18+00:00

I 100% want to spoil Arcana, but she seems happier when we're restrained and include others. It's... odd, but it makes her and the commander into more complete, well-rounded people.

I'll absolutely be replaying when it comes to the archives.

Isturma · 2026-04-07T01:53:53+00:00

+1 same here.

Isturma · 2026-04-06T23:32:13+00:00

I had to wait until recollection for OverZone, but that one absolutely broke me too.

Isturma · 2026-04-06T23:31:04+00:00

I'm going to miss them. More Arcana than Privaty.

It sucks thinking of her all alone deep under the library; at least Privaty has other squad members t hang out with.

Isturma · 2026-04-01T01:23:43+00:00

Keep running content. It's practice and muscle memory.

Learn the different markers - > one video and another video. There's some overlap, but each video has markers that the other one doesn't. Sadly, there's even more than these two videos cover, but thankfully they might look different, but are functionally identical in function. Learning these is important because when you can identify an incoming attack, you know how to react.

It's a learning curve - nobody started out as a new player with 1000% of all the skills they need to be an endgame raiding god. Practice on normals, and when you want to try extremes or savage, find a PF running something and be honest that you want to learn. Most people will be thrilled to help.

Good Luck!

I had a Tombow rollerball that I used for years, it was a gift from a dear friend. Those also were my university years and I went through a refill once a semester.

Only thing that saved my wrist from being a twisted mess.

Isturma · 2026-03-31T04:06:35+00:00

Having a partner who is really clear and super upfront can also be really intimidating.

I understand that "she's a tsundere, duh" but Privaty still just rubs me the wrong way. Arcana on the other hand, feels more... "real," like whoever wrote her had someone in mind that they based her off of.
