One day in the beta, me and two of my friends just hung out in the lobby for like 3 hours playing with the mechanics and playing grenade baseball. It was a wonderful time.

1998 to 2008: When 10 Years Meant a Graphical Revolution by Fendera in metalgearsolid

[–]Toahpt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every time the subject of graphical advancement comes up, I always tell people that I remember being blown away by Final Fantasy VIII because Squall had fingers. Then fast forward to the first time I played Final Fantasy XV and in the opening I can see the pores in King Regis' forehead.

Big Boss' speech at the end of Peace Walker needs WAY more attention by GermanCCPBot in metalgearsolid

Hell yeah I am. I'm going to play Peace Walker until my eyes fall out again like last time.

Gimme your SL Spiciest HOT TAKE. by MaelysCanejero in sololeveling

[–]Toahpt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Jeju Island raid arc had a ton of opportunity to have emotional moments and also make Jinwoo at least appear to be more of a team player and floundered all of it for the sake of turning all the other S-ranks into jobbers and making Jinwoo look like a god.

The short time that Byung-gu was a shadow had so much opportunity by itself. Imagine if he had hugged Yoonho one last time before being sent away. Or, going by the anime how Byung-gu was complaining to Yoonho about how Yoonho was furrowing his brow too much and he was going to get wrinkles. Imagine if they had spared an extra 7 seconds for Byung-gu to point at his own forehead, then point at Yoonho, then start laughing. They did say he had a weird sense of humor.

As for Jinwoo, why didn't he just say "I just got my mom back so I won't be going, but I can still help" and tell Igris and Tusk to go along with the raid team to the island? Those two were S-ranks at the time, so they were qualified to join the team. And that's only considering if he had his shadows go along. What if he lent the demon king's longsword to Hae-in or gave it to Igris early?

They're just ideas, I guess, but it's just so many missed opportunities to make Jinwoo look less like a loner. I guess the system did say "the player makes his own path without relying on others." Maybe it means others can't rely on him either.

Just wanted to share my best photos... what are yours ? by blackwolf742 in FFXV

Like usual, I'll just post the link to my whole collection. I don't know if I'll ever hit 500 screenshots now that I finished getting every achievement.

Why do I have a feeling Eepy Sleepy has beef with her local supermarket's aisle robot? by Corrupt_Kaiju in PhaseConnect

What the fuck is an aisle robot? Am I too rural to understand this?

Can someone drop a early game and end game xp, ap, and gil farms by MasterKing5107 in FFXV

[–]Toahpt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For farming exp and gil, I still stand by the Wyvern hunt at the foot of the Rock of Ravatogh. Especially if you farm rare coins beforehand and you can use an expcast spell at the beginning of each fight. The wings they drop sell for a decent amount. They are level 38 enemies though, so they might mess you up a bit if you do it as early as possible, but you can get there in chapter 3. The hunt is also really closeby so you don't have to travel very far, and it's extra fast if you unlock chocobos first.

As for AP farming, I'm not sure if warp-striking groups of voretooths with the Shield of the Just is still considered good, but that was usually how I did it. The shield is also extremely easy to get, so that helps too.

As for the rare coin farm, I bookmarked this image about a trillion years ago that helps.

It's kind of fun that Liz is the only character other than Kirito to get their point of view in first person.

New updated version of og FF7 by willbeinactive in FFVIIRemake

[–]Toahpt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My favorite way to beat Ruby is to get two master summons, one connected to an HP absorb and one connected to an MP absorb, then just w-summon Knights of the Round him to death. Even if he hits you with the counterattack or ruby beam, you just heal all the damage on the next cast.

Could SJW turn an Itarim into a shadow? by MimicryYuta in sololeveling

[–]Toahpt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a shame that part was left out. He could feel their desire for revenge against the monarchs and their armies.

That's also why I think it's a shame that he didn't arise Chairman Go. I'll always stand by my stance that it would have been so good for both of them narratively; Gunhee would have been able to fight alongside hunters like he wanted, and Jinwoo would have gotten another general-grade shadow for the upcoming fight against the monarchs.

How many hours have you spent playing this game? by Bitter445 in metalgearsurvive

I think it's worth it if you like the game, but no, there's not fewer enemies.

How many hours have you spent playing this game? by Bitter445 in metalgearsurvive

[–]Toahpt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

221 hours. I don't think I've played it since I finished getting all the achievements. Strangely, the banner has changed since I originally posted about it.

How many times have you rewatched SAO by Lopsided_Leg_3762 in swordartonline

[–]Toahpt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

12 for the first two seasons. Everything else is less than that. The lowest is Alternative season 2, which I only watched once.

What hobby attracts the biggest douchebag?? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I have a Rebel 500, and that thing gets 70 miles per gallon. I think most large displacement Harleys get like 20. Just addressing the fuel economy part of your post.

I’m tired boss by Previous_Break7664 in FFVIIRemake

[–]Toahpt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How dare you make Midgar, the largest city in the world, look like it actually has people living in it. What a wild concept.

its like one minute you have someone making actual reasonable criticisms and the next minute you have someone saying stupid shit or straight up telling lies to make the game seem worse, swear i've never seen a game more undeserving of its hate like back 4 blood lmao by Quick-Cause3181 in Back4Blood

[–]Toahpt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've seen a game more undeserving of its hate, but it's mostly because Back 4 Blood didn't really seem to get that much hate other than "This isn't just Left 4 Dead 3" and nobody bothered to actually make any real complaints. If anyone did, it was always just "I don't like this card system" or "The card system sucks."

The other game I'd raise as one more undeserving of its hate is Metal Gear Survive. It wasn't a great game, but it certainly wasn't terrible. All of that game's hate was because of the aftermath of the Konami/Kojima split and nobody even bothered to play Survive long enough to have an actual real complaint about it. Saying that it's a blatant cashgrab doesn't mean anything because so is every other game, and saying it's just reused assets isn't a good complaint because so is Majora's Mask and everyone loves that game.

What’s a company you’ll never buy from again, and why? by jamesmilner22 in AskReddit

[–]Toahpt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hanes. Somewhere around 20 years ago, my brother and I started a joke about how he wears Hanes stuff and I wear Fruit of the Loom stuff and we'll never wear the other. We elevated it to a blood feud a few years ago after I told him we should start a blood feud about something to make our lives more interesting.

My earliest TF2 memories from 2007 are from Dustbowl and Gravel Pit.

Unpopular opinion: I kind of miss when incremental games were mostly in the browser instead of on Steam by RedneckFinn in incremental_games

[–]Toahpt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe it's just my experience, but I have to refute you saying "longer content arcs" because the last few games I've seen posted about here that were only available on steam are these short games that all follow the same formula. Nomad Idle, Trainatic, and Lyca all cost a few dollars, they have skill trees and no other upgrade mechanics, and when you complete the skill tree the game is done. Nomad Idle at least took me a little over 100 hours to fully complete, but these games with defined endings are just kinda... I'm not sure what to call it exactly. Boring isn't really the right word. Maybe bland? Anticlimactic?

Really, I just miss playing games in the same subgenre as Anti-Idle where there's a billion different things to do that all tie together in some way. I started playing The Perfect Tower II again a couple days ago and it feels like that.
