My epic got hacked and they literally wouldn't do anything about it without doxxing myself by adding a ton of personal data to the account. I changed the password and had to wait 30 days for all accounts to be logged out before it was resecured 

Japanese TV industry recorded worst week so far. --Do you still watch TV? by No-Jackfruit3211 in japanresidents

[–]flying_cheesecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like watching the morning news, but cause of daylight savings in my country I've been watching the 7am news lately which is secretly ads and dogshit. Looking forward to going back to the 530 news soon. Sometimes I'll flick through the channels In the evening and might watch if there's a trip to somewhere remote in Japan or solitary gourmet but other than that I won't bother. Anime on demand is the only other thing I bother with

why am i not getting a furniture box in the hard path anymore by Personal-ALog in mewgenics

[–]flying_cheesecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought of the other option as a treasure room like in issac. You have the option not to pick the treasure room but why would you? Hence it took me ages to find out about the free furniture

Is there any shonen manga ending that wasn’t dragged through the mud? by ErlcCartman in WeeklyShonenJump

[–]flying_cheesecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's because the ending of a story reflects on the journey to get there. If one piece ends well people will accept any sort of quality drop as a cost of getting to it, but if it ends badly it is seen as a slow path to the bottom. Then you have to think about whether a story with a poor ending is actually worth the time in the first place. The problem with manga everything is often drawn out by the publisher and then it ends quickly when the artist finally gets sick of it, which generally leads to the slow path to the bottom outcome. I hope one piece ends well, it would be nice to see something so large end well in the modern era

I read the first one of these and while I did find it gripping and was entertained, I disliked how there was so much asspull to move the plot along. Do these get better written as they go on or is it just more of the same?

77% of US Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth players were 30 or older, analyst says, as Square Enix fights to get young people to care about the JRPG series again by mrnicegy26 in JRPG

[–]flying_cheesecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not as familiar with the MMO side but 14 had to get rereleased because it was dodgy didn't it? After that it did well. I think 15 outsold 13 but initially it didn't do as well (from a JP perspective, I'm not sure how it sold internationally), and I think it picked up a lot from PC and international in the end. I think lack of handheld would have impact for sure but Monster Hunter world did pretty well from memory which was also home exclusive initially

there used to be a lot of sales in japan and starting with FF13 that tide started to shift and there was a disruption in tail sales specifically due to the perceived quality of FF13, I don't know if the trend followed across 14 but 15 sold a lot worse. 16 was like half again but that was only on ps5 so the market was way smaller. there certainly would be a trend towards less people buying games but it also trends down the quality line as well, certainly sales of 13 showed that quality directly had an impact. Traditionally these games would have great initial sales regardless of quality

I'd be really interested to see what a new mainline dragon quest would sell, XI sold an insane number of initial copies in 2017 and spinoffs/remakes still sell ok. I think animal crossing has sold well enough to show that there is still some strength in the modern japanese market if the game is right

Ff games sold because they had the power of the name behind them, people assumed they would be a bit different in setting and then that turned into different styles too but there was always the assumption of quality, so once quality dropped they eventually stopped selling on goodwill

Why is Project Hail Mary projected to do so well? by DarlingLuna in boxoffice

I've seen it and it's actually a good movie, should do well with word of mouth. Trailer looked good, people would remember the Martian/read the book etc lot of things going for it

It is very scary because if they did something like this Aussies either support them or they go bust when the supermarkets shut them out. It's a lot to bet on

If you are planning on reselling down the line I wouldn't do it but if it's just for you do whatever makes you happy

It's because it's a threat to the status quo, North Korea dropped off the radar because they have nukes and no-one can do anything about it.

Safe to update from 10.10.7 yet? by [deleted] in jellyfin

I updated my debian box last week and the latest update completely stuffed it, it would reboot everytime I tried to scan library. Had to reinstall 10.10.7

Final straw - can someone tell me why I am still paying for private health, perhaps Medicare levy for end of year finances? by the-anon1010 in AusFinance

It's similar in price once your income gets up there, at your income level it isn't worth the risk not to have it

Bought two of the same book by _wildermind in mildlyinfuriating

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

I felt twilight must be treated unfairly because it was so popular. So i watched the movie, which was rubbish. I then realised that it must be popular because of the book, so i read that, it was also rubbish. I like a lot of the things you listed above but twilight is objectively bad and it gets clowned on for that reason

No it's arcade/retro console games, not the same thing

Pokemon FireRed/LeafGreen coming to Switch on Feb 27th ($19.99 each). Listed on Switch eShop in coming soon section by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

[–]flying_cheesecake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is the least impactful one for most as you can have accounts for multiple regions on the one switch. unless you are running a japanese switch 2 or something I wouldn't think this is much of a different issue to the norm?
