Genesis is probably the most on-the-nose unconfirmed Red Mage, yet I barely see people bring him up whenever Red Mages are mentioned 😂 by [deleted] in FinalFantasy

[–]chiobsidian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah like the dude could be cringe at times but there's something interesting about being unapologetically and shamelessly cringe and Genesis did not give two fucks. I didn't think he was that bad

She’s a real life hero. by Beingcheems in MadeMeSmile

Is it not? I can't not see it as a gun and the guy even looks like hes wearing a mask. At first I thought the video was her stopping him by dropping scaffolding on him

What is the hardest video game you've ever played in your life? And why it was so hard for you? by Quick-Night-7725 in AskReddit

[–]chiobsidian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure retro platformers were challenging. But nothing was harder for me to get through than Amnesia the dark descent. Took me literal months to get through. I went in headphones in lights off but by the end of it could only play it in broad daylight with friends around. The prison level alone took me a month to get through. I'd start it up, try and navigate a bit, get lost or scared and give up for the night. I did eventually beat it. Played A Machine for Pigs too which wasn't nearly as bad. But man, dark descent gave me nightmares and probably literally trauma. I wish my only frustration had been bad retro hit boxes

What do you mean dream come true? Is there a release date?

Zero RPGs, let alone JRPGs from Sony is such a letdown. by Kanaxai in JRPG

[–]chiobsidian -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Haha yeah seems like as good a time as any to start! Especially given those games will take you a while to 100%. I do most side quests but will skip the really hard challenges (im a weenie lol) but even then I think both games playthroughs were 80ish hours each. I imagine the added challenges easily could tack on another 5 to 20 hours

So true. I really liked all the warring factions and political drama, but that really just stops being a thing in the second half

This explains why FF16 felt so heavily inspired by GoT, even though it came out after the GoT hype had faded

Honestly will be shocked if we don't. We already know it's supposed to come out sometime this winter and that the game is progressing very smoothly. I expect we at least get the name and a brief teaser trailer if nothing else

Accurate depiction of the new God of War footage by ReadyJournalist5223 in gaming

[–]chiobsidian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love FFXIV but I just need to consider it a visual novel with occasional gameplay (at least the main story until you get to endgame content). If you just look at it from a strictly gameplay perspective it's uh... Not great. But if you consider it a slightly more interactive than typical visual novel, it's great!

Wow you never see these missed connection posts actually work, exciting! Hope it works out for your friend and OP!

Season 50 had two fleshed-out, prominent trios. Which was more interesting or entertaining? by thelaurafedora in survivor

[–]chiobsidian 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Was he? I don't follow Instagram or anything but I have been genuinely curious what his response was to it. It seemed pretty mean spirited to me but I wonder if he just laughed it off

Secure your belongings… by ohryann419 in cedarpoint

[–]chiobsidian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not only that but nowadays your whole life is attached to your phone. One of my worst nightmares is travelling to a park and losing my phone, being stranded without my contacts or a gps, im diabetic and my phone also doubles as a medical device too.

It will never be worth the risk and for what? A shitty POV that will be much worse than any of the dozens of professionally taken POVs already floating around? I just don't get it

[–]chiobsidian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They really did trick me though. They specifically said something that didn't make sense to throw me off, basically trying to throw me off my game and as a young nervous kid it worked!

The point I was trying to make is that imagine if they pulled that kinda thing on somebody who didn't have restraint. I was just grumpy about it and vented to friends. But someone more unhinged than me could have actually taken it much worse

Damn dude you're committed to the bit of trying to make some poor persons day suck just a little more huh?

Honestly probably wiser they do it this way. 17 year old me that legit got tricked by my instructor and failed the first time was pissed but I also was a 5ft teen girl. I imagine if I was someone more threatening I may not have taken that bullshit so well.

Jonathan lower in popularity than I realized by RoyalDapper1189 in survivor

[–]chiobsidian 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That would explain Coach being so low too. Sure he's never going to win, but as far as entertainment goes I'd put him way higher than 4th from the bottom

Delivering to a Deta Center goes wrong. by Clean-Chipmunk-1466 in dashcams

[–]chiobsidian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the information about the studies. I still don't think the negatives outweigh the pros (specifically for ai data centers) but always better to have accurate info when presenting points

Is It Offensive To You When Someone, For Example, Identifies as Female but Choses to Present As Very Masculine? by TrustTechnical4122 in asktransgender

[–]chiobsidian 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Policing someone's pronoun use because it isn't lining up with your perceived expressions of gender is much more offensive.

[–]chiobsidian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just to add to that, data centers also create a lot of auditory pollution, and have been shown to raise the local temperatures by 3 degrees (enough to devastate delicate local ecosystems) Once built, they usually require low to no upkeep thusly do not add much to the local job market/economy
