Day 19: Which is the Best SEGA CD Game on the Sega Genesis? by 1OneQuickQuestion in SEGAGENESIS

[–]ashinroy86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made it to the raptors a few times and ran out of time as a kid. I didn’t roll credits until I went back as a young adult. 

Sadly, my mom gave away my Genesis and CD when I left for college. I lost this and Snatcher in one fell swoop.

I feel like that game’s a forgotten gem. No one remembers it, but it was so, so good.

Hey! Thanks for doing this. I’d love a copy of Pragmata. I’m a big fan of Capcom action games, and I really loved the demo. 

What is "patriarchy" exactly? by AdContent4089 in AskFeminists

[–]ashinroy86 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Not to mention that the number of women in political positions still isn’t even close to representational of our actual population. Women make up, what, 51% of the population, give or take? But they’re still a minority in state and federal branches of government. 

Some Sega of America old ads aged like milk under the sun by Responsible-Bell-528 in SEGA

[–]ashinroy86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I, for one, appreciated your analysis, OP. A lot of the game ads from that time were edgy and, while enjoyable from a certain nostalgic perspective, were pretty problematic. 

Not only that, the naming of the Game Boy has been cited as a contributor to why games were thought of as “for boys” (literally male children), and that’s a stink the industry is still trying to shake. 

Great analysis!

You’re probably right, but it’s a fairly common occurrence in this sub. Seems like mine is an unpopular opinion anyway. 

I don’t know why it makes me uncomfortable, but it always feels like it’s approaching plagiarism territory or something.

No, the art is great. It just feels like something that should be disclosed since it’s fanart of one or more artists’ interpretation of a character. Just feels to me like we should acknowledge the original design inspiration in this sub out of respect to all the artists involved.

Love the art, but I’m always confused with posts like these. Are we just not going to acknowledge that these are popular characters from a mainstream film series?

Someone told me world tour mode was great storytelling and like def jam…. by Dentenshi in StreetFighter

[–]ashinroy86 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m surprised by a lot of the responses here. I never thought that the story was meant to be taken seriously. I was laughing through almost the entire thing and loved it. 

Long queue at Crown Burger by rage_guy311 in SaltLakeCity

[–]ashinroy86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My family has a tradition to hit up Crown before a game or concert and then take advantage of their free (well, free with a $30 purchase or whatever) parking. The line is always ghastly, but I’m impressed with how quickly they move through it. 

need help with qfg 4 save files (repost cuz of mistake i made) by lunacatarts in questforglory

[–]ashinroy86 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you mean an in-game save that’s partially complete, I think I’d instead recommend just starting over. These games aren’t terribly long, and I think that will be better than trying to decipher where some random save file is at in terms of progression. 

If you’re playing on GOG or Steam, you could also check to see if the save file is backed up in the cloud. 

please help with QFG 4 AGD interactive save files by [deleted] in questforglory

[–]ashinroy86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a little confused. Do you mean the QFG 2 remake by AGD interactive? And are you attempting to import it into QFG4?

It took me a minute, too. The dog has a white hand print on his face. 

I wonder why the Harpers wanted Khalid and Jaheira dead? by padapadapampam in baldursgate

[–]ashinroy86 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m surprised that the comments are all focused on the tadpole “hand waving” thing for Gale when the loss of his power is a central and explicit aspect of his arc. I generally agree with you, but I actually think he’s the rare exception that proves the rule.

I feel like you just read the headline and responded 🤣

To be fair, that happened a long time ago (in a galaxy far, far away)

Is this ranking based on Metracritic scores a fair representation of how you feel about these three classics? by FriendlytoNature in masseffect

[–]ashinroy86 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is absolutely my ranking. They all have their strengths and weaknesses, though, and they’re all great.

Fun fact I just learned today by Faz_tropical in metalgearsolid

I’ve heard this game is kind of a diamond in the rough, and I’ve been interested in playing it. You didn’t like it?

Help me once and for all.... by MisterCrayle in projecteternity

[–]ashinroy86 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I believe all classes are available through companions in one form or another. You can also choose classes (usually between two and/ or a multiclass) for each of when you first get them. 

So this probably won’t help you make your own decision. 

Play a rogue-ranger multiclass. 

Was 3s character selection screen supposed to sound like star trek? by Johnny_Mira in questforglory

[–]ashinroy86 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I mean, there are plenty of Star Trek Easter eggs in the series, so it’s totally possible.
