SMRPG was the first RPG to feature the Timed Hits aspect of gameplay, which made the turn based battles far more engaging. I think it's properly rated, nor does it really have an armada of rabid fanboys.

FF7's main contribution to the RPG spectrum was the "unreliable narrator". Between its quality and its hype, there's a bigger disconnect. this is also how I think about BotW.

an item/equipment guide


The BoF1 cart actually came with an item and enemy guide. It was great :D

BoF1 is good for its time. The cast is (technically) 0 humans; it's a fun jaunt through a fantasy world. There are multiple times when the MC changes (Nina and Gobi). Overworld skills was a cool innovation. The battles are pretty basic (lots of item use <3 E.Key and Flame Rapier).

The mechanic of "healing skills have action priority" is amazing if a bit low difficulty. Contrast this to a Dragon Quest of the era who used semi-random turn order, which could result in the boss acting last on round 2 and then first on round 3 and.... now you're dead.

Top things out of the 00's are Family Guy, Invader Zim, and Jimmy Neutron imo.

They seriously think that by not masturbating you will be able to land chicks or something?


Pretty much. By abstaining from masturbation they're more likely to seek out sex and socialize in the process, which gets them away from the computer and interacting with people in meat space. It's not for everyone, nor was it intended to be. In terms of gym gains, people like Layne Norton have been saying this for a while -- masturbate/have sex and your muscles will still be there. There's minimal effect on free test with abstinence.

In dietary terms, it's like Keto. Carbs are great in moderation and/or from fibrous sources. But some people can't help but binge when exposed to a little, so it's better to abstain completely.

Gained social skills along the way, started dating, had way more sex, got a lot more positive attention at work; was a great thing to do.

I will say running 5k 4 times a week doesnt sound that easy to me. Heck I would probably be dead at 5 steps myself lol.


"Couch to 5k" is a good primer, if you're a potato who wants to be less of a potato.

Basically, just start doing ANYTHING that'll help raise your heart rate for a little while. Track it through actual metrics like duration or intensity (ie, run for 20 minutes) or (run with an average mile pace of 9:30), and each week make it a little harder (run for 21 minutes and/or at a 9:25 pace).

Same with lifting. If you can only do 5 pushups, do your 5 gorram pushups. Then aim for 6 and go from there.
