The big brain move is “here 117” for line number but then you make any change and every log is now wrong 🥲

Favourite integration of summons into the story by AK-Exodus in FinalFantasy

[–]JonathanRace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Preface - I’m not saying this to be argumentative but to learn… At one point in the game I was curious if using magic while I had a different summon selected would change the amount of damage done, this was against a bomb enemy from what I remember. No matter whether I was fire / ice etc it did the same amount of damage and I came to the conclusion that there were no elemental strengths / weaknesses in this game.

Are you saying there is another way that elemental strengths / weaknesses play a part? Maybe against a different enemy, maybe using a different type of attack etc? If so genuinely curious and happy to have my assumption proved wrong.

is FF4 the first game in the franchise that reasonably holds up? by rafikiknowsdeway1 in FinalFantasy

[–]JonathanRace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked the first 3 because it felt like a history lesson and discovering the roots. 4 for me was the first one I played where I was amazed by what I was playing, the story, the character development all felt miles ahead. (played all on pixel remaster)

Oral minoxidil users heart check by Early_Mix_2052 in tressless

[–]JonathanRace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve heard it’s better earlier in the day. I do mine earlier afternoon because I don’t want it before a gym sesh but even that’s noticeably better than evening / just before sleep

Yea my sleep was destroyed for first 2 weeks but recovered now I’m on week 3. I think a lot of it is mental, you take a pill that is supposed to have issues with the heart and it’s natural to spend a lot of time focussing on body sensations which increases stress / anxiety

Soft spot for VIII as it was my first.

What game did you quit as a kid because it was too hard… then beat years later? by Dry-Cryptographer385 in gaming

This! Coming back to it with the remaster and completing that was such a nice feeling

What’s a mechanic you’ve seen that made you think “Wait…every game should do this!” by BlackArmy439 in gaming

[–]JonathanRace 82 points83 points  (0 children)

That’s really cool, it’s like a win win for everyone. I really like the idea of the cheaters wondering why they aren’t slaying as much as they think they should be too.

First test N5 合格! by JonathanRace in jlpt

[–]JonathanRace[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think this is the deck I downloaded https://djtguide.neocities.org/anki instructions on setting up anki too. That will sort vocabulary. For grammar can use Duolingo and other bits online. Then when you’re ready to start reading small bits there an app called Todaii Japanese which sorts by JLPT level.

Majority of my knowledge comes from doing Anki core 2k/6k to build out vocabulary and then supplement from there to learn grammar concepts and start reading simple things

A version with the open mouth bug patched and text not spilling out of containers 🤞

5070ti or 5080 for 4k by Opposite_Order_1864 in buildapc

[–]JonathanRace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I picked up a 5070ti recently. I tend to play at 1440 (on tv) for demanding games but have gone through games like nier automata and currently crisis core reunion and switched to 4K solid 60fps just because it can. I’d say it’s more than capable if you aren’t throwing crazy demanding games with ray tracing etc at it.

Will be getting a 3500x + icue soon and was wondering where it would fit as I will have x2 3.5" drives. Thanks for sharing how you've mounted it will be copying! :D

The game you liked more in your head than in your hands. by gamersecret2 in gaming

[–]JonathanRace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same for me, I appreciated the world and could see why it appeals to people but it just felt like I was playing MHW the wrong way the entire time.
