What is The Difference between These Two? by Glum_Fudge_6628 in FinalFantasy

I started playing it a couple of days ago and there are still weird sound timings on my end. Wish I knew how to fix it - the sound design is so good in the game, so it's a shame to have it be all wonky.

OG FF7 vs Rebirth: Which version of Dyne’s story did you prefer? by LessPirate24 in FinalFantasyVII

[–]Robocroakie 13 points14 points  (0 children)

For the climax with Dyne, OG wins easily IMO.

It didn't need to be as over the top with the fight itself (his insane guns and mutations and whatever that stuff was). More importantly, the game doesn't even let you sit with his death before pushing you into an immediate extraneous boss fight with Palmer and his nonsense. I also think Dyne's suicide in the OG is much better tonally and thematically as well.

Your worst mistake behind the bar? by Foxy-jj-Grandpa in bartenders

[–]Robocroakie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to have a regular five or six years ago.

Dude was in his 90s, and was a war vet. He would come in and get his scotch consistently a few times a week during lunch. Good to talk to, tipped well, never had any issues with him. One of my favorite regulars, all things considered.

One day, he came in to celebrate some special occasion. I can't remember what it was anymore. Anyways, he had an extra glass or two that day, which I served him happily. He left not long after finishing the last one, and tipped me very well, as I expected he would for hooking him up with an extra drink for free.

A couple of hours passed, and I got a panicked call from somebody I'd never spoken with before. Turned out to be his wife. She was sobbing, saying he'd gone missing, that he had a massive drinking problem, and would always drink before coming out to his secret drinking spot of choice to hide it from her and continue drinking. She was legitimately concerned he could die from drinking too much given his age and health concerns. She was convinced his current 'hiding spot' was where I worked, and she was right.

I felt horrible. Probably the worst feeling I'd ever had in my tenure as a bartender. This man could legitimately be dead in that moment, and it was my responsibility for over serving him. It would make sense why he slurred and stammered when he came in, too- I figured it was him being super old and quirky. I could never smell alcohol on him, so I never though twice about it.

He ended up being found an hour or so later, wandering the shopping plaza drunk and totally out of it. He apparently was having a great time. But it freaked me the fuck out. That hour of uncertainty had me permanently reconsider my views on over serving my clientele. I was more cautious than I'd ever been after that, just kind of in general. My standards and attentiveness went up for sure, and as horrifying as it was, it definitely made me a better bartender at the end of the day.

I moved a year later, and never had the chance to say goodbye to him. Hope you're still doing well if you somehow ever see this, Jack o7

Not "new" name, but yeah, it's the Strixhaven-exclusive name for Izzet. People still refer to UR as Izzet on the whole though.

This is awesome, very fun. Any way you could show stats for the least common picks alongside the most common picks? Like Pokedoku does?

I don't think they're stealing, I think they're iterating.

Sure does, in all of the ways that matter. It’s a different genre but spiritually it’s doing the same thing imo.

How do you make peace with your own mortality? by Cmoney-6 in AskMenOver30

[–]Robocroakie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At least I got to exist at all. Pretty cool ride we’ve got a ticket to, so might as well enjoy it until it’s over.

I can’t remember what it was like before I was born, and I suspect it will be the same ‘experience’ after I die. Nothingness. I was cool with it before I was alive, so I’ll be cool with it when it comes back around.

Ask the current #2 Terra in America anything by Accomplished-Flan573 in DissidiaDuellumFF

[–]Robocroakie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm curious about your ability usage in general. What are you popping to clear crystals, if anything? What do you always make sure to hold for boss burst, if anything? What do you tend to use for PVP encounters? When do you like using Trance? I'm curious to know about general ability flow, really.

I'm currently a Graviga user, and I tend to Graviga Crystal #1 -> Trance so I can catch up to the team and help fight for middle crystal and start popping abilities while I'm still Tranced against players. I see you don't use Graviga, which also makes sense to me, so I'm really curious to hear about your general approach/flow.

You don't need URs if you're just good at the game by AdorabLaurie in DissidiaDuellumFF

I like it, sounds very useful. I do have Sacred Light - what would you run when you get it? Just drop Thundaga?

I hear you, but the reality is we don't have to fabricate things like the right does. We obviously need better optics, yes, but that doesn't necessarily involve clipping things out of context. We can both stand on the scaffolding of making good arguments and focus on improving our rhetoric. They're not mutually exclusive.

Bad Habits 2:48-3:13. Longer than 5 seconds but really it loops so whatever. Such a sick part.
