Worst seems pretty common for every community, but when I was part of The Phantasy Star Universe community on xbox live, it was pretty great. Everyone was always helping each other out, giving away free rare weapons, and there was a pretty even 50/ 50 split between men and women which helped a lot.

TopicCastlevania?
SantaRPidgey
02/16/18 1:14:16 AM

Iv is easily the least fun castlevania. If you want to play an super fun castlevania with power-ups and endless possibilities start with aria of sorrow and dawn of sorrow. The Soma games are pretty easy and just more about pure fun and exploration.

If you want a fun platforming challenge akin to mega man try 1 and 3 to get a taste of the series. 1 is a solid game and a blast all the way through but 3 is a much more polished game with branching paths and switchable characters with different abilities.

If you find you like both types, then youre in for a treat, the other games are combinations of the two formulas, games like rondo and adventure rebirth are more like refined versions of the nes games, whereas sotn and all the ds castlevanias are closer to the sorrow types.

IV is the most dull game in the series, so dont judge it by that.

I don't even actively dislike the characters, I just think they objectively dont bring anything to the game whatsoever. Every non-playable character in the game is actively awesome, i love the battle system, i had a blast playing the game, I even enjoyed the plot. But unless the "creators vision" was "This is the story of several people who have the chemistry of people awkwardly talking to each other at the bus stop" I really dont think its unreasonable to say that character design was so weakly done that a complete character overhaul is in order.

Also, I don't think you get to say you're "fixing a game" if you are destroying the integrity of the plot and characters and world the creators built.


"Built" is a pretty strong word for the characters in VIII. The whole point is you could take out all the characters and replace them with any other characters and the plot of the game wouldn't suffer. Theyre like chrono cross characters.

The idea of a swingin sex-fueled workplace being imposed from the top down isnt a healthy way to run things, and we can learn why that creates a weird gatekeeping atmosphere.


How do you mean exactly? These statements aren't really self-evident to me.


Then theres pressure on people (men AND women) to feel like they have to fit in. Like, if your boss flirts with you, even if hes TOTALLY COOL with you not being interested, thats not a healthy work environment.


If were putting people who don't make healthy work environments on a pike it would make sense to start with literally every retail manager before someone who flirts.

The gacha blade system is definitely bad though. And the UI. And sidequests are no better than before (bad).


The sidequests are considerably worse than before actually. In xenoblade 1 it was a revolutionary idea that when you got all the items for a quest, it would end the second you got the last item. Now its the traditional "walk back and forth 50 times to finish this quest" that standard rpgs have

Unquestionably the worst xenoblade, but its still a great game. If you go into it prepared for the flaws, or without the expectations that came from the other two, youll have a good time with it. The crystal core opening is frustrating to the point of being game ruining if youre a completionist, but if you dont care about completing it its not even an issue.

Do you mean interracial or do you mean white/black.

Because society doesnt even seem to flinch at interracial stuff anymore (except for white/black sadly)

Man, that's just not true.

I would like to not have any reaction but my reaction is still "hey that's cool, glad they don't have any issues with being together". Like, I feel bad, but my first reaction isn't just "hey a couple", it's "hey be glad for an interracial couple that is happy". If that makes sense (probably has something to do with growing up in like a 95% white area).

Also, I don't have any good input here. I've had age differences, but that's it.


Ah see I grew up in chicago. The PNW seems considerably worse than most places in most regards regarding race
