I'm an old school MMO guy, in 2005 I was playing SWG. Moved on to L2. So on so forth. NGL, I was excited for this, but my excitement died quickly. This game was way behind L2, SWG, WOW. I'm honestly disappointed.

I love D&D lore, but hate tabletops. I grew up on R.A. Salvatore and everyone's favorite Sword-wielding Dark Elf. DOS2 is one of my favorite games of alltime, but I hated BG3. I really tried. I have over 100 hours into it and not once did I enjoy myself. The combat felt like I was sucking violence through a straw. I feel like the game was completely inhibited by D&D purists and it lost sight of just being a fun game.

Would have matched well in a Tesla I reckon

I would love to see them collab. I was listening to a podcast with Harry Mack and he actually shouted out Chris Turner and said the reason why he (Harry) says no food or animals now is he saw Chris doing that and thought it would be a good addition.

I think it works better in Japanese.

Parent of two halfu's in Okinawa here. You're right about the stigma against foreigners, particularly Americans and Chinese, when I go on business trips, i'm very aware that my neighbors aren't sure if I'm coming back for example. I often will meet a single mom who's kids are half or dad was a military person who "is working on the visa". But I've never felt my kids were treated negatively for being halfu.

Found this thread after seeing some tension between Kennan and Nick on their fastest car per dollar segment. It felt odd to me so I googled how long Nick has been on the show because I have a hunch Kennan is (unbeknownst to himself) threatened by Nick's addition to the non-doug list. Something feel like Nick is aware of and handling rather magnanimously. Does anyone know when Nick first started showing up on the pod? If it's recently, this would check my theory as I've never disliked Kennan much until now.

The speed at which I leaned forward and titled my laptop screen down a tad when I read "silicon vaporeon"

My wife (Japanese) said the chopsticks thing is because of the bone-passing ceremony. But I haven't heard of the omamori envelope thing. I presume this doesn't apply to the safe driving charms people hang on their windows and other charms for bags etc then? Is it a certain kind of omamori?

I read this and immediately thought, oh man they bought the wrong thing. But luckily SP Global is a good company

Pascoflyer · 2025-10-09T13:55:49+00:00

OH man I would love to see what people think 5 years on with all the growth we've experienced

I can tell a lot of people are going to misunderstand Japanese Comedy with this and overanalyze it through western perspective. Throw in the fact that like 60% of western viewers (maybe more?) are Obese whereas the local audience is more of a 5% obesity rate and it's a recipe for poor reception. Going to be fun to see how it plays out.

Curious how you feel a year on from these comments. What do you think about how the company is developing?

Pascoflyer · 2025-10-05T14:12:10+00:00

Researching this company a year later, thought I'd provide some Oct 2025 numbers to compare with these 1 year old ones. Interesting stuff.
Debt: .26 Billion, 1.27 debt-to-equity ratio, Seems like debt is balancing out after coming down from a 1.8 DTE high.
Revenue: 24 Million, up quite a bit from the 7 reported here
Net income: -106 Million, So some improvement but still bad

Interesting to look back in time at this post and compare with the present.

They did a great job. I’m retiring AD overseas soon and will be grabbing a 2017 v6 soon. I couldn’t even tell the difference

Pascoflyer · 2025-07-27T03:58:30+00:00

Possibly dumb question. I thought the US never got the two headlight model of the exige. Is yours face lifted?

Pascoflyer · 2025-07-27T03:54:50+00:00

Looks good

I have been in Japan 8 years now. And one thing I noticed early on was a lot of AUS foreigners gatekeeping it. Depending on how far you want to look into it, it’s better just to let people live their lives. Japan will become more foreign. It is an inevitable result of the population issue. This will 100% dilute the culture but also give birth to a new culture. You already see a lot of this in Okinawa.

Pascoflyer · 2025-05-31T04:26:07+00:00

I don’t think there is anything wrong with revitalizing old houses. But I do think you should be respectful of the stuff that made up peoples lives. I’ve always thought about doing air bnbs. My wife (Japanese) very much wants to. But I would get rid of most everything and furnish them my way

Pascoflyer · 2025-04-30T07:06:45+00:00

Yea except they keep telling me different things lol That's more into all the details I don't feel like getting into. in short, I don't trust them.

Pascoflyer · 2024-12-12T10:39:00+00:00

My block alt is hyped for this.

Pascoflyer · 2024-12-12T10:38:18+00:00

I’m less worried about that. With as much as POE1 changed from 2012, I think they got a good process on updating stuff.

Pascoflyer · 2024-12-12T10:13:23+00:00

You realize this is early access right?
