Could be one of the artificial sweeteners, things like Sorbitol are a diarrhetic, you could have a mild allergy there?

I assume you’ve ruled out coffee (not that that isn’t in non artisanal ones as well)

Or particularly dark chocolate and you have a sensitivity to cacao?

It’s crazy how well Vagrant Story holds up, and how well it turned out. Very weird game mechanically but very cool.

Well you know, to air is human.

There’s gonna be some Japanese JHS students really upset with you via me next week.

Drop an alien that's not from Star Wars or Star Trek

I love both of them, but also, just wanna say, the gall of the villagers in Dark Cloud 1.

“Thanks for saving me, and rebuilding our entire town, but I don’t like this spot. Can you overhaul the entire town layout so I can be next to my crush?”

SO IS A PENCIL, SHOULD I CALL YOU OL GRAPHITE EAR?!

So many good ARPGs in this era, between Ultimate Alliance, X-Men Legends and Champions of Norrath we were really spoiled for choice.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHY EAR SHAPED IT’S JUST AN OVAL! IT’S NOT EAR SHAPED AT ALL!

It’s like the premier messaging service in Japan, so it has a ton of cute chat stickers and emoji but can feel like it has weird priorities to those more akin to Whatsapp and more to the point messengers of NA/EU

Still starring Cage and Travolta right? I just tell people who haven’t seen it “Imagine Cage and Travolta competing for who can chew the most scenery, then trying to pretend to be the other playing themselves, with lots of doves. So many doves.

If you see this, we IMPLORE you to post a picture from whatever device you're using without explanation.

Take hold of this item. Grasp it tightly.

Careful you don’t speak them, doing speakable things doesn’t sound nearly as hot.

I cannot abide this one. 7 is overrated, this is not in defense of 7, but in my vendetta against 8. This is an insanely long game that does not respect your time, and makes zero sense. Why level up if enemies scale with you? Why is the junction system so poorly explained?

Or sleepy.

I might suggest this looks more high than buzzed.

I still source the L word to my wife.

Great power comes with great responsibility. Great thiccness comes with great chafing.

“New” oh lord, where to even begin on that rabbit hole.

Calling it now, you’re actually Zoruark.

Human Relationships

Some of these categories really fall on their face when Tactics is an option.

Day 9: Tactics, and it’s not particularly close. I love my turn based combat, I love XII’s puzzle approach to gambits, I even love the action approach of XVI.

But give me a tactical combat system and I am in, I’m an absolute mark for it.

Day 8: Favorite Cutscene.

Man I dunno on this one. From the death in 7, to the assault on Alexandria in 9, to 16’s….everything, picking just one cutscene is kinda impossible for me. Skipping this one, deal with it.

An example of a more direct translation when you just bump into him during a quest.

Is this the part where we talk about how in the Original Japanese he is *intensely* flirting with your character at every opportunity and basically propositions you at least once. It’s very funny to me.

Day 7: I’m a bit of a sucker for V. I think Tactics is a better system, I think XI is a really cool application of it as well (in concept, I have qualms with its execution). But something about V hits just right for me.

Hey it’s a good deal, not even $11 an hour by 31 day month scale. (As you’re getting paid all 24 hours every day, it almost looks normal.)
