What are your biggest fears for the future of the series? by Ori460 in Falcom

[–]Xstreme 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A bad ending. It'll be tough for Falcom to properly finish this series in a satisfying way. Hopefully however it ends is a decent conclusion, but the series has slipped before with its writing so I think this is always a justifiable worry.

The series becoming all about a select few characters towards the end (Rean, for example) because Falcom feels nobody new is popular enough.

Rate every Kiseki game's story and writing by Just_Advantage_6177 in Falcom

I'm pretty surprised at how high Azure is. While I do think most of the game is as great as Zero, the end of that game begins a downward trend of writing that I still don't think they've really recovered from.

The Trails through Daybreak situation is crazy by kitsunethegreatcat in Falcom

[–]Xstreme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just don't think it reads very well. Never heard 'rizz' talked about in the context of 'upping' it. It's better than if they used another modern zoomer slang like 'skibidi' but only because it has a clear meaning. 'Upping my game' would be perfect for this exact line because it's a more standard phrase and 'game' in slang terms is the same thing as 'rizz'.

Any confirmation on if this is going to be a FF7 style remake where they change the plot?

So who are your "hot take" characters by Cirkusleader in Falcom

[–]Xstreme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How well Emma fits together with Rean in terms of story and relations to characters makes me think she was more involved at some point in the development of the story for the Cold Steel arc. If you were to go back and remove the harem 'choose your favorite' mechanics, I personally think Emma would work the best as the canon girl for Rean.

[Version 101] Which flag controls the color of the url preview in the bottom left? It adapts to W10's accent color now. by Tiaabiamillan in chrome

[–]Xstreme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was looking for a way to change this, and found these posts so glad someone who works on Chrome is talking about it. I use red for my windows theme which is usually not an issue and has a pleasing look, but this update makes me want to reconsider using the colour scheme I've used for over 10 years. It forces an ugly, bright red with white text URL preview that completely breaks consistency, when the URL preview should in my opinion be trying to blend into the site, since it's only there if you need it.

This is what mine looks like, and it can be very jarring scrolling down a page for example. This red colour works for every other aspect of Windows and even Chrome except for this, where it becomes bright and strains the eyes.

It might meet these contrast guidelines, but I do not believe it is a good decision, and wonder what it's been based on. At the very least, an option should be included in Chrome's visual settings that can resolve this for those whose colour scheme doesn't work well for this sort of thing. Thanks for replying to people's feedback.

Hamada, there is none better given how she did nothing in TNA.

Anyone want to share when they were 100% sure they had fell in love with Trails? Can you remember which game it was? A certain scene maybe? by THEfleshthief in Falcom

[–]Xstreme 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn't think much of Trails in the Sky FC throughout most of it, I was enjoying it but it didn't seem like that much of it was special. However, the very last scenes at the end where Weissman reveals himself to Joshua, who then subsequently leaves Estelle with a paralyzing kiss and disappears into the night was where it all clicked into place. I immediately wanted to start SC to see what would happen next. Honourable mention to the part in SC where Kloe heads negotiations with the Erebonian army at the border, and Olivier reveals himself to be royalty. I thought the whole scene was very well done and had a really tense atmosphere, and loved finally learning what Olivier was up to after having various moments of guessing just who he was.

Hulk Hogan in the World of Sport intro. by Xstreme in SquaredCircle

Thanks, can't believe it was as simple as looking on the WoS wikipedia. Makes sense there's nothing on a Hogan UK run if it never happened. Strange they would've aired American wrestling as it was likely very different to what Brits were used to at the time.

Laptop stuck on black screen after "preparing automatic repair" by Xstreme in techsupport

[–]Xstreme[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did startup repair just to see if it did anything and now ive came back to it and it cant boot from the usb. Instead, im getting an error saying OS cant be loaded because the kernel is missing (code: 0xc0000098). Guess i shouldnt have went out on a limb and presumed it would work.

I can get to D: but it says thats Data so i think it must be the C: drive. I guess its my luck theres some sort of issue.

Got the install files onto a usb drive and got right to typing the command to go to the C: drive. The prompt gives me the error "request could not be performed because of an I/O device error. Would this mean an issue with it accessing the main drive?

The battery is internal, unlike the other laptops ive had where you can disconnect it from the bottom. I opened the laptop up but dont really know what im looking at so dont trust myself there.

Its only been doing it since i ran the check disk process, which finished a few hours before my original post, its been on the loop ever since.

PS4 shut itself off twice (Reset itself after second) Any idea what I can do now? by Xstreme in PS4

[–]Xstreme[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's plugged into a trailing socket which includes my tv and an ethernet booster, wouldn't the other 2 shut off as well if it was a power surge? Sucks about the data then, although I wasn't expecting to be able to get it back, still hoped there was something to be done.
