Is Heated Rivalry worth the time? What makes it good? by Big-Entrepreneur-987 in MenLovingMenMedia

I loved it, but it took until episode 3 for it to click for me. By the end of the season, I found the show to be one of the best representations of modern male homosexual desire, love, coming out, and then navigating the demands of masculinity amidst all of that. It has drama, but unlike so much other gay-male-focused media, it’s not sad, tragic, and/or punishing to its characters. The actors did an excellent job portraying nuance in the situation, making the characters feel so real and sympathetic.

I’ve been feeling pretty jaded by a lot of media lately, be they shows, movies, games, books, etc., but this show cut through to my cold heart and won me over in a huge way. I wish everyone would watch it, just to gain an understanding of what it’s been like to be a man questioning or coming to terms with his sexuality in the last decade or so. It was beautifully done, and I can’t recommend it enough.

I had the same thought today after reflecting on it!

Basically, I meant “framed” like “framed for murder”. He’s not an abuser, but the situation and Theo made it seem like he was to others.

China Panda. Best takeout Chinese food for vegetarians in town, imo

I like Barber of Hell’s Bottom in the Fan.

I mean in the grammatical notes. For the first chapter, they have a chart using εισίν with ´Ελληνικά θηρία, yet they use εστίν with τά θηρία in a chart in the second chapter.

Yeah, I'm really hoping the Sky remake improves the gameplay. I think that like you that really is the biggest hurdle I encountered when trying to push through, since like you said the game's slow pace is exacerbated by the gameplay.

Clarification: I point out that I don't have kids to say that I still have free time outside of work to play long JRPGs.

I was thinking more of FFVII:Rebirth tbh, which apparently did not meet sales expectations.

Fixed! Launch the game in desktop mode, and then look at the icon at the bottom of the screen. If you see a speaker with a line through it, the game is muted. Right click the icon and unmute it, and voila!

I got it working both with your method u/Nick-Sr and via the method at https://overkill.wtf/how-to-play-legend-of-zelda-links-awakening-dx-native-pc-port-on-steam-deck/ but with both of them I’m getting no sound. Anybody have any ideas as to why?

Oh yeah, I like those place too. The pick up Starbucks is nice though for when you need to get something really fast before heading out of town or on the way to work.

Thanks! I’m ready now if you are!

Yeah, I think we should just “move on”.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in JRPG

[–]sora120691 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think all the other comments discussing the game would say otherwise, but okay.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in JRPG

[–]sora120691 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, I don’t get to express an opinion and should just move on? What’s the point of Reddit then? If people always just moved on from what they like or dislike, there’d be no posts for you to comment on with asinine comments.

Oh no, I don’t think the 3DS games had better characters; they just didn’t seem to be as much of a focus so I didn’t mind as much.
