Topic | In the summer, what's your thermostat set to? |
Ivany2008 04/27/24 6:26:22 PM #15 | No A/C, we set the temperature to 0 and open windows/turn on fans. |
Topic | Do you guys hate to mow the lawn? |
Ivany2008 04/27/24 4:40:21 PM #24 | I don't mind mowing lawns, I just hate mowing my parents lawn. Mom is a flower nut so she has bushes, trees, and flowers all over. Thankfully they decided to get rid of the back yard and replace it with crushed stone, which is something I'll be doing for my own property whenever I can afford one. |
Topic | Which Final Fantasy protagonist would you want to hang out with most? |
Ivany2008 04/27/24 4:29:25 PM #55 | Locke. The main characters in FF6 are Locke and Terra IMO. But if I'm forced to pick one of the proper protagonists, probably Bartz or Clive. Rharyx211 posted... I've never seen the Karate Kid, but according to wikipedia, "Daniel LaRusso is a fictional character and the protagonist of The Karate Kid media franchise portrayed by Ralph Macchio." And an argument can be made that he's the main antagonist. A boy works his ass off, trains for years only to get eliminated by a child prodigy in the last round who hits him with a lucky kick. How I Met Your Mother explained that fairly cleanly. |
Topic | if you were blind in an eye, but had the money, would you... |
Ivany2008 04/27/24 12:49:10 PM #16 | I was trying to remember where I saw that before, and then I remembered that Mortal Kombat fan video on YouTube where they had Reptile with the screwed up eyes. |
Topic | if you were blind in an eye, but had the money, would you... |
Ivany2008 04/26/24 9:48:34 PM #5 | That looks really stupid. As an anime fan, I'd consider maybe getting a Sharingan, or going Kaze No Stigma and have the ice blue eye. But I would never get an eye that looks like that. I'd also considering getting the M that Matrix has on the show ReBoot. |
Topic | How would you spend $75,000? |
Ivany2008 04/26/24 4:47:46 PM #115 | Let me ask you this. What's the point? If you can't physically buy something to help make your life better, then why bother? Ok, I have 75 grand. Can't go on a vacation, that shit takes time to book. Can't spend it on food, or give it away Can't buy anything for myself to help improve my home. There needs to be less restrictions. Either more time to spend the money, like a week, or the option to destroy the items at the end of the period. |
Topic | Cell Games (DBZ Abridged): Ranma Saotome and cast show up. |
Ivany2008 04/25/24 10:55:03 PM #3 | and its at this time I need to remind people that DevilArtemis has been doing his version of the Cell games for at least 3 years now, and its even gotten to the point where Team4star show up on his videos now for some of his side videos. |
Topic | If they remade The Matrix now, who would you cast? |
Ivany2008 04/24/24 2:20:03 AM #22 | sabin017 posted... Neo - John Boyega Can you imagine them trying to eject from the matrix if the number was: 0118 999 881 999119 7253 |

Ivany2008 04/24/24 2:13:14 AM #24 | One of my favourite shows. I loved Ted so much I named my dog after him. |
Topic | First/ Tutorial Bosses that will kick your ass |
Ivany2008 04/22/24 11:05:28 PM #50 | Bat178 posted... Helter Skelter in No More Heroes 2. I recently tried NMH3, the first boss in that game is brutal, before I figured out how to deal with him, and even then it wasn't easy. |
Topic | First/ Tutorial Bosses that will kick your ass |
Ivany2008 04/22/24 8:58:21 PM #30 | There are 2 that immediately come to mind. Grafted Scion in Elden Ring, and Zhang Liang from Wo Long. Zhang Liang kicked my ass at least 50 times before I learned the counter system in that game. The sad part is he is more difficult than the next 4 bosses combined. lilORANG posted... Father Gascoigne or whatever in bloodborne That's the second boss. First boss is Cleric Beast. |
Topic | Final bosses that will kick your ass |
Ivany2008 04/22/24 8:55:00 PM #64 | -Unowninator- posted... Binding of Isaac Repentance: Dogma is the only difficult fight of those 5. Every other boss is fairly easy. Now, if you want to talk difficult, I've recently started playing the Fiend Folio mod for it, and some of the bosses in that mod shit all over the final bosses of the original game. There's a fight you can encounter in the first 2 floors where you fight three ghosts, they are brutally difficult. They spin in a circle and move across the room eventually spinning around you all while shooting bullets at the same time. It's ridiculously difficult for a floor 2 fight. |
Topic | Tales of Zesteria... Good game or nah? |
Ivany2008 04/22/24 8:51:14 PM #16 | I think it was an awful game. THAT SAID, there are some things I really like about the game. I love the idea that if your going into an area your not supposed to be in, the game makes it feel like your running through mud and amps the difficulty of that area. I like Sories alternate costume with the black and red. It's the color scheme that should have been used for his 1st costume. I even like some of the elemental dungeons. But everything else was terrible. |
Topic | Final bosses that will kick your ass |
Ivany2008 04/22/24 8:48:28 PM #61 | Super_Slash posted... I'm surprised I not only forgot to mention Braska's Final Aeon, no one else has either. Because that isn't the final boss. Square-Enix has a habit of putting ridiculously easy final bosses as the actual final boss, while the story final boss is the second to last boss. The final boss was |

Ivany2008 04/21/24 12:12:16 AM #236 | CADE_FOSTER posted... It's not a ban it forces bytedance to sell within a year good luck getting a Chinese company to follow American made laws. |
Topic | House passes tic tok ban bill! |
Ivany2008 04/20/24 11:45:42 PM #233 | Tik Tok might be trash, but I can see this backfiring extremely quickly. There are a lot of people that make their living from Tik Tok. So suddenly the US puts out a bill that causes thousands of people to be without work. |
Topic | Tales of the Abyss... good game or nah? |
Ivany2008 04/20/24 2:17:57 AM #19 | I_is_smart posted... I would've thought Tales of Legendia would be the black sheep. PS2 Tales game with a 2D-Fighter camera perspective for battles and about the same amount of space to move as one >_> Legendia is fantastic. And I'd like to note that the 3D camera perspective didn't start happening until the mid-point of Tales games. It wasn't until Tempest that they started switching to a 3d battle arena. |
Topic | Tales of the Abyss... good game or nah? |
Ivany2008 04/19/24 11:54:42 PM #10 | I think personally there have only been a few bad Tales games. Tales of the Tempest, Zesteria, and Symphonia 2. The last one some love it, I wasn't really a fan. Every other Tales game was a masterpiece in its own right. Some are better than others, but each other one I enjoyed fully. Including Abyss. |
Topic | quick question (meta quest 2 vs 3) |
Ivany2008 04/19/24 2:23:21 PM #3 | Kaldrenthebold posted... I only have the 3, but you need to have a PC able to play Alyx through Steam, it is not actually on the Quest store. The pc won't be a problem. I have a new computer I built in December. |
Topic | quick question (meta quest 2 vs 3) |
Ivany2008 04/19/24 12:47:18 PM #1 | Never had a vr headset before, just wanted to grab one to play Beat Saber, Half Life Alyx and a couple other games. Is the jump to the 3 worth the extra 400 dollars? I've heard that its more comfortable. |
Topic | Look how ugly the new Youtube UI looks, fucking hell.. |
Ivany2008 04/16/24 4:51:54 PM #16 | KajeI posted... My man, get ad-block ASAP. I switched to Brave, so that might be an option, but Chrome was horrible with the amount of crap that was being let through even with Adblock on. |
Topic | Look how ugly the new Youtube UI looks, fucking hell.. |
Ivany2008 04/16/24 4:19:22 PM #14 | what bothers me is that, at least on my computer, they started adding in-between shorts ads. It was bad enough to hear "And this aint Texas" on every short, now every third/fourth short is an ad for something I give no shits about. |
Topic | Poorly describe a game. |
Ivany2008 04/16/24 4:10:59 PM #234 | masterpug53 posted... Correct. Technically Oblivion as a whole (I worded the first part to apply to both the main quest and SI). Could also technically apply to Shadow of the Colossus. |
Topic | sequels that were so successful that nobody even remembers the previous one(s) |
Ivany2008 04/16/24 1:19:46 AM #48 | Mike Tysons Punch Out apparently overshadows Punch Out and Super Punch Out for the arcade. |
Topic | Little Ceasars Is actually decent pizza. |
Ivany2008 04/15/24 10:41:15 PM #62 | Little Caesars at least where I live is decent. Can't say the same for Dominoes though. Apparently it depends on who owns the franchise near you. |
Topic | Honeydew melons are so f'n good. |
Ivany2008 04/15/24 10:40:19 PM #6 | They certainly are the money melon. |
Topic | Tempted to buy a X-Box series X. |
Ivany2008 04/15/24 8:55:59 PM #50 | Enclave posted... Just buy a PC, it's a way better option than an Xbox. Might be a better option, but there are still times its nice to have a physical console, especially when you have friends come over, as PC split screen really isn't as well known as it could be. |

Topic | What is your relationship status? |
Ivany2008 04/14/24 4:17:48 AM #54 | Single, wish I weren't. But it just seems like women in my area can't be bothered to text back. And I get it, we all get busy, but I don't hear from you in 3 full months, only to see you text and say "sorry, I'm only seeing this now!", sorry sister, your already off my radar. I work a ridiculous amount of hours and even I find time to text people back in an hour or two. |
Topic | Tempted to buy a X-Box series X. |
Ivany2008 04/13/24 11:11:04 PM #37 | If you decide to get one, get it used. Don't bother getting it new unless its a huge deal. |
Topic | Is today a coffee, Monster, or redbull morning? |
Ivany2008 04/12/24 1:02:04 PM #27 | DoesntMatter posted... anyone who pays 7 dollars a cup for coffee every day is a chump. i buy coffee grounds in a big tub for less than that on sale and get more than a month's worth of servings out of it. Christ, I buy decently priced coffee grounds from a bulk store and make my own cold brew. It's just better. I pay maybe 4 bucks for 5x the amount of cold brew that I would get from a store for the same price. |

Ivany2008 04/12/24 12:38:05 PM #21 | C_Pain posted... You shouldn't need an external drug to wake up! Cool, so what are we thinking? Heroin? PCP? How bout my favourite, a balloon filled with LSD that you swallow and it bursts coating your stomach lining? I call it "Disco Party". As for a serious answer, Pepsi Zero Sugar followed by a nice hot coffee and some Pasta later today. |
Topic | Are there any video games that you'd consider life-changing? |
Ivany2008 04/11/24 6:39:53 PM #31 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] No More Heroes 1 and RE4 are literally the reason I tell people that Wii games aren't that bad. Both do motion controls fairly well, and to be honest, those games are the reason that the Wii controller is one of my favourite controllers. |
Topic | Gen 4 Pokemon. |
Ivany2008 04/11/24 6:38:01 PM #11 | VGAddict90 posted... Platinum goes for over $100 on Amazon and Ebay. Then look into the ocean.... I know people are keen on playing the original copies but when a game goes for far higher than it should, you know where you should go. Plus D/P are essentially the same game outside of small choices and Pokemon. Platinum essentially fixes everything wrong with Gen 4, which is hilarious because they managed to screw it up for BD/SP. |
Topic | Is there anything that's series canon that you refuse to accept? |
Ivany2008 04/11/24 6:34:35 PM #85 | Where to begin? Captain Ginyu surviving into Dragonball Super The entirety of Goku Blacks saga So many similar devil fruits in the One Piece world that they overlap with one another. Jason going to Space The ending of Star Ocean 3 Anything past the first episode of Season 6 of "The 100" |
Topic | Are there any video games that you'd consider life-changing? |
Ivany2008 04/11/24 2:44:13 PM #17 | Megaman X1 - It took everything the original Megaman franchise did, and enhanced it. Simple tricks were added like the dash and wall climb. Nothing super fancy, but enough to change the experience enough that many of those things are added into sidescrollers these days as the norm. |
Topic | Favorite Mad TV skits? |
Ivany2008 04/11/24 1:49:24 AM #73 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VUIq6dwMyM Pretty much any Blind Kung Fu Master skit. There's also my other favourite bits with Frank Caliendo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbwJrO9dmeM |
Topic | Could a Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy crossover ever work? |
Ivany2008 04/10/24 10:26:17 PM #13 | archizzy posted... 20+ years ago I would have welcomed this. These days I don't want Final Fantasy to besmirch my beloved Dragon Quest. I LOVED Final Fantasy pre-merger good old Squaresoft days. The only one I didn't like was VIII. But these days? Keep that shit away. funny you say that because Enix didn't make a single Dragon Quest game. They only published the games made by 3rd parties. |
Topic | Could a Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy crossover ever work? |
Ivany2008 04/10/24 9:43:33 PM #8 | To be honest I wouldn't want them to attempt it in the first place. It's only since Octopath 1 that I started liking their games again. Before that it was a mixed bag of mediocrity since the merger, and I wouldn't trust them to do it properly. If it were Squaresoft before the merger attempting it? Absolutely. But Enix at the time was never a developer. They were only ever a publisher. And know how out of touch their Enix side was at the time (seriously, look into it, its wild how many times their own music director prevented them from releasing the full game for his own profit), I can't trust them to release a proper title. |
Topic | Rarest enemies to spawn in a game? (Maybe spoilers?) |
Ivany2008 04/10/24 7:19:32 PM #63 | Henry - Binding of Isaac Repentance. I have 7k hours into BOI and I've never seen him spawn once. I've gone through Dross at least a few thousand times. |
Topic | Rent vs Buy |
Ivany2008 04/10/24 2:06:06 PM #35 | CervusCanadensi posted... Would you commute >50 minutes each way to work, 4 days a week? that's a trick question for me, as I work from home lol. I'll probably only work from home unless a really good job pops up that requires me to go into an office. I get to do all my work in a quiet environment with no distractions, and when I'm done, I can piss off and play games until my shift ends. |
Topic | Rent vs Buy |
Ivany2008 04/10/24 12:36:33 PM #6 | Depends on the location. I would never buy a house in a highly congested area, too expensive. If its an hour outside a main city where prices are a bit more reasonable then buy all day, every day. |
Topic | Is being more or less attracted to certain races being racist? |
Ivany2008 04/09/24 10:55:46 PM #82 | No. It just means you have a preference. |
Topic | What was your last injury? |
Ivany2008 04/09/24 10:53:06 PM #21 | Oh god.... where to begin. I can tell you my last few injuries. The most recent was a couple blood clots in my left leg as well as a couple in my lungs. I was on blood thinners for about 5 months to get rid of that. Before that I had to go through Chemo for my 2nd run of Cancer, this time in my lower back. But an actual injury? I went for a walk in the park late in the evening, it had been raining earlier that day. I slipped on some loose gravel and broke my right ankle, ripped all the tendons in my left, with the assistance of my buddy I walked 1/2 mile back to our car. Didn't find out it was that until 2 weeks later when I was finally able to get a proper X-Ray done. |
