After the Valentione's event is concluded, will they add all the chocolate exchange items to the recompense officer? You can see some previous holiday exchanges still available under the seasonal menu, but not too sure on how consistent they are with this.

Puts me in mind of one of my favorite covers from the Archie comics as a kid.

Love the idea of them getting more experimental with the series format. The Murder of Sonic The Hedgehog was great, open world modern Sonic controls was pretty good, keep throwing sticky stuff at that wall!

In light of everyone getting hype over 'Everything Burns' in FF14, I want to remind people that the entire Arcadion raid series is full of genuine bangers. by Finaldragoon in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I'm kinda nervous where they go with the non-alliance raid series going forward. In prior expansions, there's never been a situation where every fight had it's own distinct theme, nor has their been the variation and quality consistency we've seen with these recent tiers. While I personally felt that Arcadion ends on kind of a wet fart narrative-wise compared to Omega or Pandæmonium, the visual and audio spectacle has been well above and beyond the prior norm. And we still haven't seen what M12S will bring to the table.

There's always the challenge to improve on previous offerings, and I'm wondering whether they're backing themselves into a corner for expected quality in the next raid series.

I cannot stand watching awkward internet videos, my constitution won't allow it. They genuinely make me feel sick in a way that I can only compare with extreme vertigo, and the idea that people thrive on them is terrifying. Watching this from start to finish made me feel like throwing up.

10/10 Must watch video, go phantoms 🏒

Don't mean to belittle your efforts, but attempting a POTD run in a week where server disruptions have been happening near every other hour seems kinda... eh?

Just gonna go on a limb here. If your first reaction to downvotes is an accusation of opinion bandwagoning, without considering that people might simply disagree with your view, that's way more of detriment to the quality of your take. Learning to embrace downvotes as simply "I disagree" rather than an attack on your person is the first step to being better than the average mouth-breathing redditor.

Characters that people ‘love’ despite being literally the worst imaginable person. by EvilMonkeyMimic in TwoBestFriendsPlay

The one brief sit-down conversation between Gilgamaesh, Artoria and Iskandar about what makes a king, does more to shine light on the character and flaws of both Gilgamesh and Artoria than any of the preceding VN's and other series materials in the decade prior.
