It's very very similar. I did not finish the game yet, but I enjoyed the story in 1(although some chapters were meh). I cannot give a non biased opinion on the writing, but so far characters still barely interact with each others and map designs is made in a similar pattern

Depends on what you mean.

My kids actually enjoy the hell out of loads of NES and SNES games with the caveat that they have the rewind feature in the Switch.

Beyond that, they dont have time for such games unless theyre well-polished platformers that are somewhat forgiving without a rewind function, like Super Mario 3 and Super Mario World.

They find Mario 64 and Starfox 64 fun, but hate Ocarina of Time and other slow action adventure games of that era.

They dont care at all about old JRPGs, and any game where youre forced to repeat a level or worse is intolerable to them.

I really wish we had OoT and MM remake on the switch with modern controls and Camera

I do not make the demographic choices, I can only point out the studies.

Your article date from 2016. The game sold about 1.7 millions back then, but now it's about 8.5 millions. I think the game is one of the rare game that gradually sold better as time went instead of having a boost on release(word of mouth probably helped since the persona brand was not as "legendary" as Final Fantasy) Probably got a boost after game award and after got in Smash.

While the latter two are a bit more shrouded I suspect they'd end up like Persona 5: https://personacentral.com/persona-magazine-survey-results/

It's overwhelmingly played by millennials with only tangential play by Gen Z.

has an aging demographic, that has a similar overlap to the userbase of GameFAQs. Nintendo has given out demographics (such as here: https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/pdf/2017/170201_2e.pdf ) and while children obviously still play the games it is still overwhelmingly millennials that represent the base for Pokemon.

I think some people forget that many Gen Z people are in their 20s. Also Persona 5 probably appeal to people in their late teens and above so having 10 and 19 years lumped together is a bit questionable.

Hello. American who went to the ER here! I spent 5 hours at the ER and got diagnosed with a kidney stone. I was hit with bills totalling over $5000. Since I have a high deductible insurance plan like most Americans under 65, I was on the hook for that. Thankfully, I am extremely fortunate to work for a small company that covers my monthly insurance payment and puts thousands into my health spending account. Most people are not so fortunate.

I was charged $1300 for two IV drugs and some saline.

Still more than I'll ever pay

In my experience it's tough for two reasons:

1. Losing weight is pretty darn slow. Like 0.5 lbs a week is actually great progress, that's 26lbs in a year, but it's hard to appreciate the work you put in when it takes so long
2. Most calorie restriction diets will see immediate results the first week because you're losing a lot of water weight really quickly, so you'll see the scale go down 3-5lbs and be ecstatic. But then after water weight levels normalize your total body weight will stagnate or even creep up, even if you're burning body fat

Also personally my body weight only decreases in water wooshes which is satisfying but really fucking annoying. Like I'll cut hard for three weeks, see no weight loss, have a cheat day, and then the body will flush out water weight and I'll be 5lbs lighter. The body is weird lol

Makes sense, but technically I gained 50 lbs during two years so. Maybe it's just that we tend to see bad consequences as having a bigger impact than positive stuff

Also I hate how all my underwear give me a plumber Crack now and I dont wanna buy tons of new ones

I gained 55 lbs during covid in two years. I started changing my habits, I am 10 lbs down, but I hate how I became more chubby and I feel like it make me look a lot older and I used to be mistaken for younger all the time. I feel like I am getting exhausted way too quickly. Changing bad eating habits is harder than I thought(and why was it easier to lose weight when I was single)

So for those who lost a lot of weight during Covid. What kept you motivated?

For example "apartment" in French is "Appartement". Due to muscle memory and similar grammar, a lot of French speakers might write is "Appartement". The multilinguals will get condescending comment like "RIP English" for daring to speak the monolingual's person first language perfectly. So why are monolinguals so disrespectful?

You'll be pretty happy. A lot of the last episodes focus on the kids(there's an occasional reference to past episode) and they don't make randy a main character in every single episode (he was getting boring and he used to be one of my favourite characters)

The new "SJW". They try to censor everything like drag show or xbox power saving mode for example because they believe in their self proclaimed "strong moral standards". They regularly throw tantrum about the most random stuff being "woke" and get offended by it. It seems like Elon musk unbanning the alt right made more people lean to the left because they don't have the "freedom of speech" victim complex anymore as they try to censor everyone who disagree with them

Link: "Cloud Strife, huh? I've heard of him. My own rival is a powerful sorcerer named Ganondorf. He's caused a lot of trouble in my world."
Sephiroth: "I see. It's important to have someone to push you to your limits. It keeps you sharp."
B Support Conversation Start
Link: "Hey, Sephiroth. I was thinking more about our conversation last time. What do you think it takes to overcome a rival?"
Sephiroth: "That's a good question, Link. In my experience, it takes a combination of skill, determination, and a willingness to adapt to your opponent's tactics."
Link: "That makes sense. I've had to change my strategy a few times to keep up with Ganondorf's tricks."
Sephiroth: "It's also important not to let your emotions get the better of you. Rivalries can be intense, but you need to stay focused on the task at hand."
A Support Conversation Start
Link: "Hey, Sephiroth. You know, I've been thinking - maybe we're not so different after all. We both have rivals that we've fought many times."
Sephiroth: "That's true, Link. Perhaps our paths have crossed for a reason."
Link: "Maybe. But I think we could learn from each other. We've both faced powerful opponents and come out on top. Maybe we could share some of our strategies."
Sephiroth: "I like that idea, Link. It's always good to learn from others. And who knows, maybe we'll even become friends."
Link: "That would be great. I'm looking forward to working with you, Sephiroth."
Support Conversation End
Link and Sephiroth's support level has increased to rank A!
