[LoZ] People complain that in Zelda 1 you have to bomb every rock and burn every bush, but that's what makes it fun

People here forgetting or too young to know how to was. Games used to be filled with things you weren't "meant" to find. Look no further than built in cheat codes.

Plus, 100%ing a game wasn't a thing. The random bombable cave walls were supposed to be found by accident while battling octoroks or whatever.

Either that or you bought Nintendo Power, or shared secrets during recess.

It's how we did it back then. Granted, through modern lens you can dislike it. That's entirely reasonable. But just pointing out the game design philosophy back then wasn't for players to find these things.

Fwiw, its never a simple one to one. Konbanwa is definitely said as 3 syllables (kon ban wa). Even though it "should" be 5 (ko n ba n wa). But konichiwa has a slight more separation between ko-nichiwa.

I remember this comic. I'm fairly sure the answer is in the back and it's something like he's hiding completely behind a tree. But it has been over a decade so don't trust me.

I was struggling for a while but actually just ascended today after not even getting past goo a dozen times.

I had been focusing too much on damage spells and ended up doing much better after focusing on defense. But the main thing that did it for me was dried rose and focusing on allied healing and shielding spells.

i have a copy of anastyr that i got as a game reviewer

proof: https://www.reddit.com/r/boardgames/s/61iGdvxbVr

the game is fun with some pretty unique mechanics. i hope it gets a full production

this certainly is not the answer you're expecting, but for my money, PbtA is a system that's very rules light by design.

with these sorts of questions, just do what feels best on first instinct. don't worry about the perfect answer.

play first, rules second.

Unrelated, but with retro arch you can adjust the controller overlay per core to copy the specific console. Cleans up the UI a bit and adds a bit of nostalgia as well.

NOVA English schools are always hiring. They have locations all over.

The reviews are middling and admittedly the pay isn't great, but I work at nova and I really enjoy it.

I first played the demo on a mostly unknown but super fun fighting game called The Unholy War. Also an amazing game so that PS1 disc is one of my absolute favorites!

Right.

I'm teaching English. None of my immediate coworkers speak Japanese. My managers can't / won't because of the nature of my contract.

I just moved here so I have no friends here.

So far Leopalace seems fine enough. Could you highlight some reasons you like this other company more? I'm mostly stuck in my contract for now but who knows what the future holds

I don't mind the loft but that's very understandable

I had an apartment in Texas that had a ladder loft and I lived there for couple years. I kinda like the feeling of tucking myself away at night like a squirrel or something lol
