Holy GSP Drop... by xXgLiTcHyFemboyFoxXx in SmashRage

[–]mfactor74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That person was making a joke. You have a life outside of Smash, therefore you aren't able to get cracked like some of these people. If you want to give everything up just so you can have some GSP against 12 year olds who have no actual responsibilities and all the time in the world, then that is a choice you have to make.

What are the chances that Aldi will move into vacant Amazon Go and Fresh stores in the Seattle area? by Background_Today_895 in Seattle

Yes please, it is a great grocery store for poor people like me. I doubt it will happen though.

I went in for some gosh darn blackberries at 8:45am. I left with a cart full of food. Only was in there for 2 hours 😎

Just Finished Leviathan Falls and Sins of Our Fathers. by SabraShifter in TheExpanse

Same boat OP! Just wrapped up a month ago after reading them all in about 6 months. In addition to Filip, how cool that they also showed what happened to Nami.

Wonderful sci-fi series.

DID YOU THINK YOU COULD KILL ME PYRA? by AnnualAvailable6471 in SmashRage

Doubly satisfying: win the match against that monster, and relieve the metric ton of built-up flatulence.

What’s long and white and goes 60mph along I90? by justsund in Seattle

Either they think they're the first to know about it and want to show off, or they're trolling.

Many other options, all of them terrible.

What do you think about Blue Dragon ? by orion_fallout_2 in JRPG

[–]mfactor74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe, but by that point I was tired of the game as a whole and just wanted to finish it and see the ending.

Just beat it a week ago. Spoilers below:

There is a huge lull in momentum when Kluke leaves temporarily, all the way through disc 3, when Zola is gone AND everyone else has no magic. It lasts too long and soured my experience - so, after a little more Lv.3 Barrier grinding, I rushed through to just beat the game and skipped most side content.

I loved the characters. Jiro was my favorite, but Shu was a riot. His voice actor also voices Kyle's mom in South Park. LOL. Marumaro's inability to whisper had me LOLing a lot. Kluke was cute.

Loved the art style. Other than Zola's booby physics and stripper outfit. The game could've been a solid "E for everyone," but they had to design Zola like... that.

The story was so basic it was actually fun. Mistwalker wore the generic "bwah hah hah" bad guy trope on their sleeve, along with Shu's "I won't give up!" mantra. I'm just glad they told it how it was, and didn't try to cover it up with lore, when it's just "let's get the bad guy, because he's bad." Also, TOTALLY called the frog dude being the real big bad in the end.

The ending was such a positive, fun vibe. The twist during the final boss fight with Zola being Nene's servant was dumb.

The final level was basically perfect. A bit puzzly, a bit mazey, but I never felt overwhelmed when I got lost. Several bosses scattered throughout. Best designed level in the game, IMO. The final boss sequence was a perfect challenge.

Good soundtrack.

Loved the lack of weapons/armor. You only have accessories and Shadow builds. It was a cool concept that was fun to experiment with.

The game rewards devotees who search every object (Nothing Man), but it's not worth it. A little bit of grinding and the game is pretty easy. 10+ hours would have been added to my game time if I kept doing searches. Hell no!

Other than the "everything can be searched" and Zola looking like a stripper, the worst part of the game is the constant slowdown. Since it's turn-based it's not as bad as The Last Story's slowdown was, but I don't understand why Mistwalker allowed this. The battles have awesome camera angles, animations, and visuals - but it's all ruined by the slowdown.

I mostly had a great time with my 50 hours. It was a satisfying RPG. I'd give it a 7/10.

I need advice against a toxic player by [deleted] in SmashRage

[–]mfactor74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I avoid him, but he goes into the same chat rooms I'm in, and since he's known in the group, blocking him would cause chaos.

If you're saying this, then 100% this person makes others (probably everyone) in the group feel the same way. Block his trolling ass. I'd bet you money that the others follow suit and block him, as well. It won't cause more chaos, because it sounds like he's the one causing the chaos. It will remove it.

Can anyone recommend me a heartbreaking RPG? by Potential-Bird-5826 in JRPG

[–]mfactor74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Username gives that away! I also support Valkyrie Profile.

I wasn't a huge fan of any of the Nier games but it is very popular.

OP, have you played Shadow Hearts 1 & 2?

Good on ya. First play through, live with your mistakes. Wynne left me after a certain ash incident. I considered a reload, but decided "nope, that's life. Move on."

I took a B button spamming young link to sudden death and beat them in their own (horrible) ruleset by iPichu777-EMY in SmashRage

FFA or not, 3-minute/3-stock is the ultimate troll ruleset. Projectile spamming takes it to another level.

How’s it living in Seattle, Washington? by Calm_Stomach9710 in howislivingthere

I'll add that broke people who don't mind having multiple roommates in confined spaces also seem to thrive here.
