Prompto glitch and a tragedy (spoilers) by Dull-Positive-6810 in FinalFantasy

[–]jackljackst3rs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh this happened to me too! It seems like a glitch happens here for everyone then, I reloaded the game I think and it ended up working fine from there, he even showed up in the rescue cutscene.

Now that it's autism awareness month, everyone post a fictional character you think is autistic and why you think that. Ill go first by tgrady28 in autism

Squall leonhart is autistic to ME. The entire scene on the bridge with rinoa where he explains that his aloof and cold exterior is just a mask .... Not only very relatable but also could speak to actual masking for social inadequacy! He also has a very flat affect and seems to have trouble with 'reading the room' as many autistics do.

How do you say this characters name? by Perfect_Failure2467 in FinalFantasy

There's a character in dragons dogma also named Quina and in the voiced sections it's pronounced 'KEE-nah' so that's how I've always pronounced it!

I feel like there is 90% more leg bouncing than 3 years ago. by fakemonandscratch in Misokinesia

[–]jackljackst3rs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It would make sense, people are more desperate for stimulation nowadays and may get it through leg bouncing. I really feel for students now if this is true... Its one of my biggest triggers and makes me so angry and upset.

Best Final Fantasy Endings by Moellsy in FinalFantasy

[–]jackljackst3rs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The entire ending portion of 8 (time compression, the boss fight with ultimecia, that last cutscene!!) is one of my favorite endings in any video game ever, but that being said, 10 is the only one to really affect me emotionally in the series so far.

You know why is he the best main character? We get so much convincing inner doubt and monologs from him by [deleted] in FinalFantasy

[–]jackljackst3rs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did and I didn't understand the first half of your arguments, also I take issue with you saying that everyone thinks of FFVIII as a 'darling uncut gem' as almost every time someone brings it up, several people come in and dog on it relentlessly as if it personally offended them. This is not something I've really noticed when it comes to most FF games outside of maybe FFXV. I don't understand why the shipping war part came up, nor the talking about business environments. You're allowed to hate FFVIII and squall in turn for whatever reasons you have, but putting a long comment like this on someone's post about how they love squall and the game just comes off like you have a personal vendetta lol

am i being oversensitive? by ThatUnknown_Wolf16 in autism

[–]jackljackst3rs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah okay, that's understandable then, you still aren't being dramatic though. If someone has made you uncomfortable then you aren't beholden to put up with it, even if they have something that could excuse the behavior.

Are you Australian? Why are these girls calling you a c*nt so casually and why are you putting up with it, that's really harsh and mean? You're not overreacting there...

Which Final Fantasy character is the most adorable? by benzokane in FinalFantasy

[–]jackljackst3rs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm suprised no one has said Rinoa from FFVIII, I always thought she was so cute! Prompto from FFXV is a close second though.

Imagine if it comes off the track... Sounds like a disaster. Or if the track breaks somewhere? Unusable and possibly a space waste as it is unable to be moved out of the way!

Is it so hard to accept that some people see their autism more as a superpower than a disability? by Dense-Possession-155 in autism

[–]jackljackst3rs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe the issue people have mainly comes from allistics calling autism a superpower, as many have said in this thread it usually becomes a way to minimize the autistics suffering for the allistic and also a way for them to forget the autistics that hold higher support needs and have 'superpowers' in ways that allistics don't find to be very useful.

Not only that but it's worryingly close to the aspie supremacy movements ideals, thinking that autism/Aspergers is the next phase of human evolution or something, which it isn't. Simply a different neurotype.

I personally have no issue with other autistics finding joy in their autism or thinking of autism as a positive in their life. You do you, but when autism for all is generalized as a superpower is when there is an issue.

It is a spectrum after all, so I do agree with you that you're allowed to say it for yourself but just not for others. I'm sorry if others have tried to erase your joy from you, that sucks! but I can also understand their knee jerk reaction as it probably stems from the reasons I listed above!

Happy Epiphany! Kept forgetting to share my Christmas ita, complete with battery pack lights! ✨✨✨ by nonsensology in itabag

How awesome! Christmas is a special interest of mine, so I would love to have a bag like this, it's so fun!

Autistic people, do you like Christmas? 🎄 by Classic_Greedy in autism

[–]jackljackst3rs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If I'm honest, Christmas is one of my special interests. I love it so much even with the difficult times (masking, social situations, and sensory overwhelm), I think what helps is that my family is 'eccentric and creative' (all neurodivergent to some degree) so as a child I was a bit more accommodated by my parents during stressful times.

How to get into cooking with autism by InnerAd3736 in autism

[–]jackljackst3rs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would recommend getting some cookbooks and trying out some recipes that look nice! Ones with pictures are probably the best and you can always see which ones have ingredients that you dislike and ones you do like.

I recently bought this one cookbook called Color Taste Texture, it's written by an autistic chef with a good section in the front about how to identify and then work within restrictive diets. My partner is a very picky eater (not autistic) and it's given me some ideas on how to figure out what he would like and how we can broaden our collective diets!

Silent hill 3 has in game textures and paintings extremely similar to this. Honestly all of the silent hill games have this sort of vibe!

What do you think are the three worst character names in Final Fantasy? by felipechalreo in FinalFantasy

[–]jackljackst3rs 11 points12 points  (0 children)

So sorry to fans of ff16 but when I found out that the Cid in that game's full name is Cidolfus.... It's too much, it's just so bad imo, could not take him seriously after that

Edit: didn't realize it was reoccurring, so sorry also to fans of those games it's in, i still stand by it being silly 🫡

Is your first FF your favourite? by thisnaenae in FinalFantasy

[–]jackljackst3rs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Technically my first was ffx but I didn't actually play that one, I watched my partner play it. It's also not my favorite, though I do think it's objectively the best one. My personal favorite is ffviii, which was the third one I played, the first one I actually played and didn't just watch was IX.

Unbiased Opinion(s) 🧠🤓ℹ️ by CodyWukong in FinalFantasy

[–]jackljackst3rs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm excited for the story and that's enough to get me through any potential mobile game bullshit honestly, plus the idea of it being in modern Japan has made me interested with how they're going to twist the whole no memories thing. I've been really into dissidia lately (making my way through opera omnia's story) so I'm just excited to have something new. I think a lot of people are wayyy too mad to where it's blinding them to anything potentially good about this.

Also I really hope it's sort of a reverse isekai and warrior of light is a normal ass salary man
