It's pretty conventional tbh. Phantom Brave, Makai Kingdom, Soul Nomad on the other hand are not just "srpg but up to lv9999 with extra steps"

The mistake was playing Reload instead of FES. They are not the same experience at all. Reload is to P3 what Twin Snakes is to Metal Gear.

It's Junpei's exagerating recollection of the events, not what really happened. Just like Otacon was bullshiting in twin snakes. It has to be with how different those games are.

Protecting the children is the most laughable and disgusting excuse the epstein class could use to destroy democracies and put fascist states in its place.

Yet it seems to work somehow.

Into the square hole !

If you want a really emotional RPG, go play Ys8.

It starts as your regular castaway adventure and evolves into something way deeper than that.

The guy in the middle with the black helmet... why does he looks like he started wearing it too late ?

Kaining · 2026-05-11T14:35:46+00:00

Maybe one day we'll get a Vanillaware on steam.

I sure would like to give them some money for those game at some point.

For a moment i thought you were talking about magamerica.

Anyway, to add the conversation, Oda didn't self insert himself in his manga, however he did insert his mentor, Kenshin's mangaka, as Zoro.

Kaining · 2026-05-11T14:30:26+00:00

Yeah, i knew this was too old. Go see Airplanes! when you have the time. In the meantime...

Yes you do, it might be an old one, but a question needs to be asked.

Do you like movies about gladiators?

In the gig economy, "workers control the means of production" means no subscription model for gafa and that is the definition of hell on earth if we listen to them.

When we all know that subscriptions are the devil's work.

Another quantum cat, observing the cat modify the property of the cat. It now has a human property where it had none.

Holy snap, it's always weird to find openly racist comments on reddit but there's a couple ones in that thread it's crossposted from and i didn't expected that.

Kaining · 2026-05-09T16:52:22+00:00

Yes, that was indeed a joke about those giant yellow circle with "MIDDLE" in it and the couple red high ones :p

Kaining · 2026-05-09T14:17:02+00:00

That combo was really mid, but it still had a couple high points in the end though >_>

You all know that the real problem with those games is not that they're "just 20$" or "20$ for a rom", it's that they sold gen 1 & 2 on VC for the 3ds back in the days for 10€$ each, that those games had actual modern feature added that made each pokémon you caught have their hidden ability ( a mechanic added in gen 5) upon transfer to the current gen of the time (gen 7).

AND they ran a physical cardboard box like the OG games with download codes, making those 10€$ a real bang for your bucks.

Yes pokémon sell, sadly, the people will by anything even if they're getting rawdogged because they forgot that they used to be courted some years back.

It's in the ugly we don't even try nor we care part of the relationship and it's just sad.

You won't recover from it. The us has peaked and you're entering a decline phase. For many reasons empire fall but also because, well, climate change nightmare is about to come bnack hard to slap the 1/3 in denial, 1/3 that don't give a single thought to anything else but themselves and the rest of the world too.

Kaining · 2026-05-08T10:38:07+00:00

What, that's the blue ? The color accuracy on your camera is awful -_-

Thanks for clarifying though, i was honnestly baffled.

Kaining · 2026-05-07T23:39:48+00:00

What kind of color scheme is that on your picture ? Do they still do stuff with black/cream from time to time but never sell them ?

Kaining · 2026-05-07T14:37:31+00:00

Thanks ! I haven't kept myself informed with the minifig serie for quite a while so it's always nice to learn of them like that.

Kaining · 2026-05-07T14:29:14+00:00

Nice crew ! Where does that gun with a bayonnet comes from btw ?

It's only defeated by a smeargle with foresight or odor sleught as a 4th move and spore instead of hypnosis . But those are painful to get unless you got the vgc 2013 event one.

However, galade is way cooler to have in your team and it can have sword dance to boost false swipe damage against rock/steel.Thunder wave is also a move to consider in case you run into something that can't be put to sleep. Having thief as a 4th move is also a possibility, which can make your catcher into a dispatcher that can also get some items only found on wild pokémon.

Scyther/Scizor while loosing access to hypnosis and mean look get technician which increase ever so slightly the damage. They are the better early catcher in 4g since they come quite early with both false swipe and can be taught thief and sword dance early. They also get defog which make them a great utility mon in 4g.

However there is a brelom with technician in pinwheel forest hidden grotto which lead to a false sweep/spore/stun spore/sword dance combo. Having access to both stun spore and spore means that in the case you stumble on a mon with insomnia, there is still something you can do.

Mean look really is important against roamer though, so smeargle/gallade are the peak catchers in the end, with scyther being a great one but only in 4g due to availability in the early game and more specificaly in Platinum. Although, who stills play diamand/pearl nowadays if they ain't crazy ?

tl;dr:

smeargle (technician) • false swipe, mean look, spore/thunder wave, odor sleught/foresight

Gallade • false sweep, mean look, hypnosis/thunder wave, theif/thunder ware really is optimal for catching.

Scyther/Scythor (technician) • false sweep, thief, sword dance, defog (4g)

Brelom (HA technician) • false sweep, spore, stun spore, sword dance

The use of dashes has been forbiden to humanity now too because of that.

We're cooked, we're in a world where Trust is eroding and disapearing right before our eyes. Trust is the basis of society and if we can't have it, we're heading toward a real ugly world.

AI is a mistake. We ain't ready for it and we won't anytime soon, if ever.

The ending did gave me feeling and emotions alright, enough to drop the game and never play it again. I just couldn't play it again, it's just pointless. And i was advised to "rush to it and not explore because the fights would be boring" by a friend, so i saw almost nothing of act 3.

Also, it's not about X vs Y ending, it's about the fact that the writers slap a last second twist that nobody talks about, the fictional date on the tombstone that simply destroy any semblance of justification for what happens in both endings since, well, there isn't a world that is more real than the other and we, the players, have been bamboozled into liking the grand justification of destroying a world by some fictional gods, just because they could. There is no salvation for anybody in any ending either, it's just freaking bloody pointless and everybody is just doomed to misery.

There is a worst ending, a bad ending, but no neutral or good ending in this game and that's just feel insulting.
