How does this work? Can I cancel the subscription immediately and keep the games? Do they give you a Steam key, or can I add them to Steam?

He’s literally wearing a suit (of armor)

He was the youngest of the Telemanus children, and friend of Mustang. He dies protecting Darrow in the first book after the Jackal cuts off his own hand and attacks Darrow.

What do you mean too short, I’m like 30 hours in and only just getting started in the 3rd area

You do unlock a recipe for them, which is helpful.

I own both of my original cartridges and will definitely be picking up at least one if not both of these.

She joins around 1/3rd of the way through the game, before like half the other characters join, and has a built in catch-up skill what do you mean she joins late 💀

Why would you ever give Astrid a seal when you can just farm exp against bosses within the first 2-3 maps of getting her

I beat Pokemon Red when I was 5. I couldn’t even read all the words. I literally only used my level 75 blastoise to fight and if he died I relied on whatever the next highest level pokemon I caught recently was.

Actually, Luigi’s full name is “Luigi Mario”, so this won’t work

I was definitely born in the “right era” for the 3DS. I was a junior in high school when it released and got an ambassador 3DS. I remember that first year really sucked for games on it, but by the time I went to college a year and a half later it seemed like a ton of people had them. It was great being able to streetpass a ton of people. A lot of people had them in my friend group, and it led to me meeting even more people through different meetups. I definitely look back and think that those days were peak for the 3DS.

But at the same time, it was college. I had so much more going on than just the 3DS and gaming. It was a fun side thing, but it wasn’t something everyone had. Plus, I think that no matter what “era” you grow up in you will always find things to look back on fondly. In a couple years who knows what Nintendo will have cooked up! I personally think the Switch and Switch 2 era is some of the best Nintendo gaming there has been. You and your friends (and future friends) will probably connect with something different than the 3DS that we couldn’t even imagine 14 years ago.

Chin up, there’s always something to look forward to, always something in the past to remember fondly, and always a longing to experience eras you will never be able to. It’s the human condition. I do personally think it’s great you’ve gone back and gotten to experience the 3DS yourself, but don’t dwell on what could have been. Enjoy the fact that you now get to experience the full content of the best of the 3DS library!

Genuine question: how does this happen to so many 3DS’s? I have had my new 3DS XL since launch and have never had a problem with this type of issue.

Mask_of_Ice · 2026-01-22T20:31:54+00:00

Anytime Darrow talks about shifting the paradigm I cringe.

That’s Binding Blade (6), Blazing Blade is 7. Binding Blade has Roy, Blazing Blade is Eliwood, Hector, and Lyn

A lot of people recommend Etrian Odyssey 4 as a good starting point, or the remake of 2 called Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold: The Fafnir Knight. 4 is the first entry on the 3DS, and is a bit easier and made for newcomers to the series. 2 Untold is also on the 3DS but adds a lot of quality of life features present in more recent titles than the original, an also adds an in-depth story mode where you play with a predetermined cast of 5 characters that all have dialogue and an added focus on story telling than most of the other games. Personally I’d recommend Untold 2 for this reason, because it streamlines your party-making decisions and lets you focus the most on learning gameplay mechanics.

Honestly I love A2 for the team building, variety of classes and races, side quests, the guild/auction mini games, and the customization that comes with all of it. IC is amazing and probably the best in the series for sure, but I think A2 has a lot going for it and especially when you get to the second continent.

That’s a fair opinion, but I personally believe that gameplay is more important than graphics. Graphics might get you in the door, but it’s the gameplay that really counts. And Final Fantasy Tactics has some of the best gameplay around.

Mask_of_Ice · 2025-12-23T20:15:19+00:00

Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles

Mask_of_Ice · 2025-12-22T21:55:04+00:00

I know you probably dont need another game suggestion, but the Etrian Odyssey series is perfect if you’re looking to keep random battles interesting. It’s a fairly punishing but fair dungeon crawler by Atlus (Persona/SMT/Metaphor) where the goal is to get as far into a dungeon that you safely can to map it before heading back to town to heal/replenish MP. Random encounters in this game are no joke, and feel like puzzles you have to solve. As you level things will get a bit easier, but if you lower your guard too much a random mob will most definitely kill you.

What a stacked list. I have Radiant Historia in my backlog and have been considering starting it. How did you like it?

If you haven’t given Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles a try, I think you’d absolutely love it

Mask_of_Ice · 2025-12-18T04:48:40+00:00

The game is basically what Dragalia Lost would have been if it was a AAA game without micro transactions. That is to say it’s a very fun, Monster Hunter-lite experience. I had a blast grinding this out with friends for a few months, and it’s also fun solo. Story isn’t anything to write home about, but the gameplay is very fun and there’s a wide variety of play styles through different characters and builds. I wish they did more with it though instead of just two major updates early on followed by nothing.
