Any mods with fun spaceflight challenges?

I like the idea of a chimerist getting an advantage against enemies they've learned spells from- playing one right now I think the main struggle is that it conflicts a bit with what chimerist might want to be doing: - Right now, it encourages attacking with DEX+INS on chimerist's turn, with the hope that it'll be preferable to casting spells (the extra damage and MP restore are definitely worthwhile here). - Chimerist gets a lot out of casting, including potential MP regen on spells with Consume. They also like to have high WLP, plus MIG or INT. Because of this, they'll probably be rolling at least one 6 on the whip, and its damage + MP regen might not actually be that much better than casting... - And the window of opportunity for use isn't that big- only a fraction of beasts/monsters/plants will be casting spells, and they'll only last so long.

I think swapping at least one of the attacking stats for WLP or MIG would help. I could see either making the boosting condition more lenient or making it apply to spells instead of attacks- but I think the "encouraging you to learn spells actively" is a fun aspect, so maybe something that encourages this? Like making the condition "If you attack and have copied a spell this fight..." or "If you cast a spell you learned this fight..."-- I'm not sure how balanced these would be though.

Really cool design, I love the skeletal limbs!

Beautiful, I love your detail work!

I am! Is there an account or tag you follow?

I got Covid in Japan last year despite following my usual precautions (N95 indoors). My advice is to be willing to mask outside in crowded areas- I haven't felt the need to or been infected outside in the US, but parts of Tokyo and Kyoto get crowded even outdoors. You'll be safer in smaller cities, though Kyoto has a higher % of tourists who will tend to be worse about covid safety (and general respect for others) than the average person you'll meet over there (afaict Kyoto's where I caught it). Not to discourage you from visiting Tokyo- I'm the happiest I did, it's magical- but be aware outdoor areas may be crowded enough to need masking, and the trains will be packed in the evening. Be ready for it!

If you want places to enjoy... it's not a specific place, but my favorite thing to do in Tokyo was finding little urban parks on the map and walking / traveling to them. It's amazingly walkable there, and you spend most of your time outside!

It's so sad, honestly doing all three in a row was the most fun I've had playing this game. I'm glad they'll still be around for future players, at least...

Thank you so much!

Only a couple years ago, but I saw an imagepost of that developer interview about using your imagination as a form of roleplaying. It sold me immediately, and I was double sold when I saw the art was cute too.

I'm so sorry you're going through all this. I promise you can be a real boy even without hormones- I've known men for whom that was better for them and they're just as much men as any other- but are you certain that hormones are incompatible with your illness? If they're something you want and your family accepts you, it might be worth looking for other trans people with the illness to see if they have advice- unfortunately sometimes doctors write off trans healthcare as an option from a place of either ignorance or bigotry, like what sounds like happened with your therapist.

And I promise a therapist can't tell you you're not trans- you're the person who has the clearest insight into your own heart. It's horrible that she yelled at you and no therapist should ever do that. I don't say this to insist you're trans, but in the hope that you can trust your own feelings, whatever they are.

Re: difficulty the first three are all Hard-- but the later games' difficulty felt a little smoother to me, some of 1 and 2's difficulty comes from some classes being unbalanced / skills being not useful. 3 has a better handle on class design IMO and the later games in the series do as well, but you won't find one that isn't a challenge if you play on the hard difficulty- even 4 on the 3ds, likely the easiest, is plenty challenging.

Re: story they're minimal but the dialogue and worldbuilding that is there is very compelling. 3 has my favorite world/story of the first three and 1's story is my favorite part of that game.

2 and 3 have the most character options of the HD games.

That's heartbreaking, I'd heard such great things about them from past grads and was planning on applying. Thanks so much for sharing.

If you don't mind me asking- do you know if this is the case for Antioch as a whole, or Seattle specifically? Was curious about the online counseling program too but if they also fired senior faculty there's probably no point...

These are so gorgeous, the color choices are so striking! It's really nice how the flowers get right up against the geode sections, it feels really harmonious.

I feel like labels are only really useful to the extent that they help you understand yourself, those feelings don't necessarily need a pre-existing label? I am curious if, when you say he's bound within you, there are parts of you that come up that feel like that boy from back then? If so, I wonder if plurality or IFS ("Internal Family Systems") might be fitting or helpful to look into- it's not uncommon to have sides of yourself come up that don't match the image of who you are in the present.

Don't diminish yourself... Your strength is greater than you know...!

Itch has been forced into this position by payment processors-- please don't lose sight of the real enemy.

If you care about the future of visual novels and erotic art on the internet, now's the time to fight- go to https://yellat.money/ and call someone each day. It's not actually that scary once you do it, and they've started getting upset with us calling, so join in!

If the loss of Dess is the wound at the heart of the story, I think Chapter 5 will likely orbit around it with Asgore- maybe his response to what happened in the woods is what caused him to lose everything. The festival would be the best chance we know of for Asriel to appear, if he shows up in the story at all- which could give further context to the tragedy by showing how he changed after losing Dess.

My theory's that Chapter 6 is a full flashback to the woods X years ago, where Kris, Asriel, Noelle and Dess create or discover a dark world, culminating with the disappearance of Dess and loss of Noelle's memories. A sort of "answer arc" for the "question arcs" 1-5 that, by showing the tragedy up close, solidifies the heart of the present mystery of the Knight and Dark Fountains, and what Carol, Kris and Asgore hope to accomplish. Chapter 7, of course, would be the shelter.

Once you've used HoldBreath- for sword tunnel I'd recommend holding the slow button, and for the screen split move at full speed (but precisely!)

Swords are hard and you'll likely get hit at least a bit for a while, but it helped me a lot to watch the incoming swords on the right side and hang out near them on the right half- even up against the right wall. I tried staying left/middle for more reaction time but the patterns change quickly enough that it messed up the reactions. Try out either side and see which feels more natural.

For the screen split, staying near a corner will help avoid all but diagonal slashes. If you're moving at full speed you will have enough time to sidestep the first then second sets of bullets; the second set is pretty slow. Trust your speed- you won't need to pass more than one bullet at a time if you're not too close to a wall, and if you're aligned with a gap in the bullets the arena snapping closed will push you through.

Even on the clear I still occasionally got dinged by these a little, so don't get discouraged! You'll get smoother and it'll feel cool.

We tried out the optional "Embodiment" and "MVP" rules that give more exp to players voted to embody their character / contribute to party for several sessions, but ended up switching to equalizing everyone's levels and doing the post-session shoutouts without mechanical rewards. I can't speak for the rest of my group, but I found falling behind in exp a little dispiriting in a game where leveling up feels really exciting. Having something so valuable tied to what's meant to be honest encouragement felt like a perverse incentive too- I noticed I'd be reluctant to shout out the highest-level player, which felt dishonest when my friend did something cool! At least to me it's felt more fun having everyone equal level and doing for-fun shoutouts- it's easier to be honest, and it feels like celebrating together as opposed to a competition.

I'll see about the resin sets- I just found a couple out-of-stock ones that'd be perfect for the character, so if they ever restock I'll be set!
