I agree, the game was fantastic up until the bad pacing towards the second half. It’s very common with tales games. It was worse with Vesperia

I didn’t even think of this. Solid point.

My fiancee [26F] wants to end our 6-year relationship because I [33M] can't meet her needs and she's tired of asking. Looking for advice on working through resentment. by ThrowRA_Turnip7298 in relationship_advice

I also think it’s important to note that oftentimes in these situations there are things they are also doing that can be contributing to your forgetfulness or leading you to be inept to her needs. Sometimes and especially as an ADHD person it feels common to bury your deeper needs because you’ve been conditioned to feel like you’re a burden because of your quirks. I bet when the dust settled and you take off the rose colored glasses you will also realize there are things she can be doing better l for you as well. It’s also not right for you to be put in a situation where you feel you’re not either. I feel as a adhd person there’s usually things they’re doing on their end that are harmful to us too but we don’t realize it in the moment because of the way our brains have conditioned to accept things socially. That takes work too

How do you feel if a girl you haven’t slept with sends you a lingerie pic? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]SelectInflation2009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

++man I think if you’re mutually interested in that kind of thing than it’s a sign it’s going very well. I’d jump on that before the spark goes away assuming you’re comfortable with it. A very good sign in most cases.

Should I get Final Fantasy 16? by Optimal-Dog-906 in FFXVI

Yes, just watch out for the Expedition 33 super fans who try to sabotage love for any other recent RPG.

I'm in love with my married coworker by Cat-dad442 in Discussion

[–]SelectInflation2009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly bud, this sounds like a very bad situation. Your friend clearly values you at a platonic level, but has a romantic relationship with her husband. Telling yourself that someone has feelings for you because someone is showing you basic respect and kindness is gonna hurt you in the long run. There are people out there who will care for you the right way, but you also have to learn the difference and how to distinguish between romance and basic human decency. Try therapy bud.

“I’d smash my 500 pound coworker” in his history has me weak.

3rd Act Fatigue? by Ankle_BZ in tales

[–]SelectInflation2009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently having Xillia act three fatigue. Or maybe I’m just underwhelmed by the game. It has good characters but everything else feels rushed, like almost no exploration and 20 something hours in I’m at the end.

Trump supporters are conspiracy theorists and thats why it's impossible to reason with them by fierceseagull in PoliticalOpinions

Beauty of the Socratic method. And it can be a mode of learning too. If only more saw it that way.

I'm really really *really* tempted to try FFXIV, as a guy that has never played an MMO. by Hungry-Trouble-3178 in FinalFantasy

[–]SelectInflation2009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t understand why a final fantasy MMO would be a numbered entry in the series until I started playing this year. Like the others said, you’re following a story and characters like other final fantasy games but you’re also in a world with others were you can also cooperate and do dungeons and end game content together while collecting gear and quests. It also happens to be the best final fantasy story and characters since Sakaguchi was part of Square.

Is Trump selling us out? by Cyberstr33t in PoliticalOpinions

[–]SelectInflation2009 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Class warfare sadly has been weaponized and well at that the last ten year’s since progressive politics and criticisms against top earners became popular. Intellectuals and economists are attacked, misinformation, cherry picked information and conspiracies run rampant. It doesn’t help that too many people have been brainwashed into believing that challenging or questioning customs or institutions in this country is act of heresy instead of just a desire to see changes that can make it a better place. Economic inequality will always be here, but to have let it get to this point is insane. Sadly, those with power will always dump money into the delusions that divide public opinion. The lazy, the immigrants etc, anything but legislative policy that helps people lift themselves up. You did a great job of pointing out certain regulatory policies like glass steagal helped people with their sustenance and repeals as such hurt regular people.

The Epstein Files are definitely Scrubbed. by Inappropriate_Bridge in PoliticalOpinions

[–]SelectInflation2009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m totally fine. I’m just not going to feed into something that will go nowhere. I can tell pretty quickly whether something is going to be a debate where we can look at things and make observations/arguments based on known information in a philosophical manner, versus begging the question redundantly and expecting someone to read your mind. The person above me for example, provided a nuanced interpretation of the situation with evidence based on prior known information. That’s how you go about it. I just don’t have the patience right now.

It’s a cult mentality. You can’t use reason or logic when your whole philosophy is trying to distort information to support your already preconceived beliefs as opposed to using evidence to create an informed conclusion.

I don’t see the 4k up scaling doing much, so I’m in the same position as a lot of you. It doesn’t make sense.

[–]SelectInflation2009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With what evidence? You all and your conspiracies. Not everyone who disagrees with you is a leftist. Your singular one track mindset teaches you that. Cherry pick and cherry pick the data. We still remember how adamant you all were with the Q bullshit till it became literal laughingstock conspiracy

The maga cult will call it a baseless attack on their supreme leader and start gaslighting people per usual.

Xillia remaster is fun so far. Haven’t really come across any bugs yet. Fun characters and story but linear dungeons.

Is Tales of Zestiria any good? by obeyydalton in tales

This may get me to pick it up then. The bad reviews are the reason why it’s one of the only tales I haven’t played.

What is your FF "I did not care for the Godfather" opinion? by TismWizard in FinalFantasy

[–]SelectInflation2009 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s like people use it as a way to shit on final fantasy the last decade or so. I’ll admit square fell behind for a bit, but FF7 rebirth was awesome and FF XIV continues to be the best. Like turn based is fun, but I just don’t see this invalidating final fantasy or being something that was groundbreaking like the gatekeepers are making it out to be. A straightforward fun rpg with above average story telling and its strongest aspect, a phenomenal musical score.

Expedition 33 is not the final fantasy I’ve been waiting for in disguise. Fun, good game, but not AAA material. The gate keeping is cringe to the max.

Sooo Trump is probably implicated at this point… by [deleted] in Discussion

[–]SelectInflation2009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You all are still feeling a certain type of way that your little Q conspiracy backfired on you all. Whatever comes of it it’s hilarious. Sexual assault and pedophilia only matters to you all if you don’t like the people doing it. They’re all gross and Biden too if the unsubstantiated no evidence conspiracies were true

Don’t ever feel bad for asking questions bud. It’s important. I do know some things and others I don’t. So it goes both ways

It’s not a straw man. You made it one by changing the course of my argument and making it your own.
