I haven't listened to the CS3 soundtrack in a long time. I forgot how fantastic it is as a whole. I really need to replay that game, haha. It's still one of my favorite entries in the series.

Happy Anniversary to Xenogears (PS1)! 🎂🎉

Released in North America on this day in 1998, this masterpiece from Square pushed storytelling, philosophy, and music to new heights. It's still one of the most unforgettable RPGs ever made!

MARIE AND DUVALIEEEEE

I love Edel Riegel's work.

Hifumi's English VA is Eden Riegel! She know for voicing Maire in Persona 4 Golden, Fleche von Bergliez in Fire Emblem 3 Houses, Sumia in Fire Emblem Awakening, and Duvalie in The Legend of Heroes series! Which roles of hers are your favorite? #HifumiTogo #Persona5 #Persona #SMT

Oh, I've played most of the older Atlus library. The only games I haven't really touched much of are the Last Bible games.

I'm happy I started playing Eternal Punishment again. These older Persona/SMT games always make me so happy.

It's more an internal issue I have with sequential games. Like with Trails, if I want to replay Sky SC, my brain makes me think I have to replay FC as well for no reason, so it's just a weird mental thing, pretty much.

Oh, I've already played them multiple times, haha. I'm well aware of the entire plot of the first three Persona games.

The Persona 2 duology is such a vibe, by the way. You should play it.

I've been really wanting to play Eternal Punishment, but I keep acting like I HAVE to beat P1 and Innocent Sin again before playing it.

Then I remember I can just play whatever, whenever I feel like it, so Eternal Punishment it is.

I've created unreasonable writing expectations for myself by having a few days of SUPER intense writing where I'd get 10,000 words written in a day. And now, any less feels like it's not enough. I just did 2,000 words, which is pretty good for a single session, but I feel bad that it's not more.

No wonder it was so bad. It's the DM's job to make sure that the game that's being run is something the entire group actually wants to play. I hope you can someday find a group to play with that feels more like a sense of camaraderie between the players and DM and not active hostility. 🫂

Did that DM ever host a Session Zero where they actually got together with everyone involved to discuss what kind of game you all wanted to run? I feel like that's a very important step for starting any campaign that seems to be missed, and I sort of see it as a red flag if DMs don't do that.

That is the worst. I never would wish that on any of my players. We're all in it for creating a story together, and I feel like that's what TTRPGs should be. Exploring a world with others and getting to feel like heroes making an impact on said world.

I find it so funny that I originally got into Trails because I just wanted a new turn-based RPG because I was burned out on the others I had been playing at the time, and now it feels like Trails is all I play these days. XD

XD Exactly how I felt at this point.

Thinking about a D&D campaign I ran for my friends at the height of the pandemic. Once I had our problem player leave the table, the group basically befriended every villain I threw their way, even the BBEG of arc 1. (They still had to kill him, but it's the thought that counts.)

THIS IS THE FUNNIEST DIALOGUE BOX I HAVE SEEN ALL YEAR MAN LMFAO

I was sort of feeling a lot of despair over many things, but that definitely helped pick my spirits up for sure.

My mom just sent me a video of the protests going on in my old hometown, which isn't necessarily in the boonies, but it's by no means a big town (with its fair share of "small town people", if you know what I mean), and I am SO proud at the turnout.

This is still one of my favorite opening themes in the series. My second favorite, as a matter of fact. It used to be my favorite, but then Daybreak 2 came out swinging with its opening theme, haha.

Happy anniversary to the fan-made English translation of Mother 3 (GBA)! 🎂🎉

Huge thanks to Tomato, Jeffman, and Chewy for making it possible. Even today, Mother 3 has never been officially released outside Japan. Thanks to their work, we’ve been able to play it in English!
