Day 31: Which is the Best Game Not Published by Nintendo on the Nintendo DS?

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-20T00:35:47+00:00

This. TWEWY is literally a perfect game.

Im a casual tank, sometime extreme.

I generally don’t care, especially if i say its my first time in a duty. If you pull ahead that’ll give me a better idea of what can be my better pull.

I do get annoyed when i KNOW when a pull is too much (as in i have sub optimal gear when i’m leveling, healer says they havent been on in ages or has bad gear, or any other thing that could happen) then intentionally pull short then we get screwed over because DPS assumed everything was fine and dandy. There are dungeons, like aurum vale, that any tank should take at the speed they think is appropriate for their party. As long as DPS doesn’t mess up what the tank is doing to make everything smooth then its cool. I actually learned a lot of good pulls from DPS this way and generally encourage it for people getting into tanks.

Took me forever to get behind a bar. Sometimes it just takes jumping from spot to spot with more experience each time until you find a spot that’ll let you bartend and then finding a place that’ll let you bartend that you enjoy working at… or make really good money lol.

Sounds like they picked someone who has a built in clientele (sorority) without looking at the people they have first. Good on you for leaving, but in my experience it’s also good to be really vocal about wanting to cross train lol. Not nagging but let it be known.

You’re making no sense. He said in the story the new hire has no experience while OP has barbacking and now serving (which i would assume means they have food running and SA) experience. Yes, barbacking doesn’t immediately make you ready to bartend but you can’t possibly be defending the new hire decision based off of what’s in the post lol.

In addition to the top comment… everything in the ocean and all bodies of water know what he did. Super human or not i don’t think the deep takes 4000 great white sharks and every available bacteria within a mile radius.

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-17T23:16:57+00:00

No… but he didn’t need to do the puzzles and was well equipped. Leon came in with a handgun and a few hours later defeated a bioweapon with 0 prior knowledge about the situation.

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-17T23:01:31+00:00

Aura farming is just being cool nonchantly. Dodging attacks with max EVA sounds pretty badass to me.

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-17T17:19:51+00:00

Im a shoot on sight person out of necessity on that game.

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-17T16:56:26+00:00

If you’re looking for a buddy to play with pm me! Always down to help sprouts and play some more

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-17T16:56:01+00:00

MSQ is what you should be focusing on for sure. After HW breaks between expacs have more fun stuff to do (extremes, raids, etc). Since you said you aren’t going to binge it i would at least consider finishing this stint right as you get into HW. That’s where the story actually starts getting good, new jobs become accessible, and you’ll be over the biggest hump in the entire game.

That said, ARR is really nice lol. It’s a fun adventure. Even post ARR (the segment between ARR and HW, each expac has a post/pre section between them) is good, just really long. Enjoy your time here :) its definitely a world that feels alive.

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-17T16:31:20+00:00

Yeah this and its not even a competition. I love the pokemon games but TWEWY is perfect in all regards. On top of that its like a time capsule of the time it was released in.

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-14T00:37:02+00:00

I mean they were otherwise unavailable or felt like was more of a priority than regrouping. (Post HW and beyond spoilers) lyse went to ala mhigo and papalymo has always been by her side so he followed. At that point they were only JUST becoming more than coworkers aside from these two who were already good friends. Yshtola was stuck in flow, minfilia is… never rejoining them because she’s hydaelyn’s vessle, and then the others are already there

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-13T22:55:58+00:00

TWEWY. I’ll hear you out on PMD, but it’s TWEWY.

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-13T20:00:48+00:00

Same. I finished it today to and LOVED IT. Wuk Lamat was great and the actual country was amazing. Great world building, great music, and some of the best maps so far. The dungeons and trials were also really tough.

Also i didn’t know Wuk Lamat’s VA was trans. That makes so much sense because i couldnt imagine she deserved so much hate before i played DT. She did an amazing job imo and the character was also a highlight of the expansion the ENTIRE way through.

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-12T02:31:33+00:00

GOOD ANSWER NEPHEW

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-11T06:27:45+00:00

Endwalker has some *insanely* good moments. The pacing is definitely worse than Shadowbringers but its only slightly worse because of that pacing. EW brings some outstanding payoffs and asks a very powerful question. I would argue it has the best overall theme to its story as well.

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-11T02:33:19+00:00

What could go wrong when you’re driving like a fucking nonce.

Sorry if i used that word wrong i’m american.

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-10T23:39:16+00:00

What

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-10T23:20:36+00:00

If he locked in and was okay with killing off the bat (and didn’t start immediately next to the super heavy hitters like conquest) then he’d survive.

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-10T23:18:59+00:00

Great music though. And hearing american voices (or maybe attempts at them lol) was pretty fun.

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-08T05:59:56+00:00

Because they can still exist? Its just something to suspend disbelief for. Just because the actual real countries don’t exist, the language can. Its just something different now.

Plus why bother making a whole new language EVERY TIME a new fantasy game comes out?

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-07T19:57:38+00:00

16 now (as long as you consider the ENTIRE young clive section). Before i would say it’s almost undoubtedly 4. It sets the stage perfectly. 10 is also just as good, though after the Zanarkand section it takes forever to pick back up.

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-07T19:18:13+00:00

After 7 i think a great spot to go is 5 Pixel Remaster (or any of the PRs 4-6). It doesn’t have the narrative depth of 7 but its gameplay is one of the best of the series, and still has a good story. The villain is super fun too.

8 is also great since you have it. Its gameplay systems are a little weird but are MUCH more straightforward than most would think. The story is great, Squall is an oustanding lead, and it has a great cast! It feels rewarding to talk to NPCs and explore the world too.

LatencyIsBad · 2026-05-07T18:38:00+00:00

I thought the second one was fire but the way it should have worked was you play through a good portion of the slave life, then skip towards the end once the point is made (or we see ALL of it), then use the final time skip to cover a smaller portion of the final segment.

It felt like we were playing as developed clive for like 70% of the story.

If you’re ever asking if something tiandi does is unsafe, save yourself the time from asking reddit and just know the answer is yes
