| T0ffee 04/19/23 10:07:36 PM #425 | adjl posted... Xenoblade 3 wave 4 comes next week. Like 8 months early. Holy hypenuggets. Man, and I'm right in the middle of a Dragon Quest XI playthrough too. I calculated it so that I'll be done with it right before Tears of the Kingdom comes out as well, so I don't think it'll be easy to juggle both games. Honestly shocked that they pushed up the release so quickly. Makes me wonder if they just cut a large part of the game out in order to do that. --- "Splashing water on a pervert is like putting lasers on a shark" - Shiho Shishido |

| T0ffee 03/26/23 5:24:57 PM #323 | Haven't really been feeling the pull to 100% Xeno 3, so I started on a new game now, Harvestella. It's been good so far. The combat is a bit meh though with no real way to dodge or block attacks. And the farming is a bit on the simple side. The graphics and sound design are GORGEOUS though. I wouldn't say this is better than Rune Factory though. It does some things better than RF but there are other things worse. Honestly if they can somehow make a game that combines the best part of both games, that would be the perfect Rune Factory game. --- "Splashing water on a pervert is like putting lasers on a shark" - Shiho Shishido |

| T0ffee 03/21/23 10:22:35 PM #312 | Beat the final boss of Xeno 3. All I can say for the ending is eeeehhhh... The final battle itself was hype though. As for the final final scenes, ehhhhh... Too ambiguous for my tastes, especially comparing it to the clear-cut endings of the previous Xeno titles. It's a weird to be feeling like this for this game since I can remember a distinct sense of satisfaction and finality when I finished 1 and 2, but for this one, it didn't satisfy me as much. It wasn't bad but I can't say it was good either. Still gonna try to 100% the game though. Though I do so with the knowledge that as far as the story goes, what I'm gonna do would be Also, side note, it took until the final scene for it to click with me that Lanz was supposed to be a --- "Splashing water on a pervert is like putting lasers on a shark" - Shiho Shishido |

| T0ffee 03/04/23 5:19:40 PM #287 | And I can I just say how awesome the main cast is? I don't think I have felt this kind of immediate attachment to the party compared to the other Xeno games. I think the main contributing factor for that is that they are all together at the start instead of getting added one by one as the story progresses. This allows the game to focus on expanding their interpersonal relationships and growing and revealing their personalities. Noah as a protagonist is still kinda bleh compared to Shulk for now (but is infinitely better than Rex), but the rest of the party really bring up the whole experience. --- "Splashing water on a pervert is like putting lasers on a shark" - Shiho Shishido |

As I feared I was woefully overleveled for the Still, I'm growing classes at a good pace. I only have 2-3 classes that aren't maxed on everyone. I guess taking the time to farm for 6 Mastery Necklaces once I hit level 30 was worth it. As far as the story goes, (Chapter 4 spoilers ahead!) did the writers REALLY expect that we wouldn't And I'm glad that my guess about I'm now definitely intrigued on how this world came to be. There haven't been any significant lore explanation on how this whole continent formed or why the areas of Xeno 1 and 2 are here. Hopefully they'll explain it eventually, and not leave it like, "that's how the world is" type of explanation. --- "Splashing water on a pervert is like putting lasers on a shark" - Shiho Shishido |

| T0ffee 02/26/23 6:27:05 PM #274 | Played quite a bit of Xeno 3. Just got the second hero. I can already see that fully maxing out the classes before postgame is gonna be a chore. All the enemies around where I am right now are around level 15-20, and I'm already at 23. Everyone has at least 3 classes mastered already, but now the growth is slowing down since they're in their C and D ranked classes. Everything else has been great though. The game runs great, the music is great, the environments are great, just greatness all around. Still not sure how to optimize combat arts and chain attacks yet, but I hope it'll get easier with time. As for the story side, the only gripe I have is that the villians are almost cartoonishly evil.

| T0ffee 01/09/23 1:50:57 AM #209 | For what it's worth I got mine for the switch and had a blast with it. It's a turn-based game so high fps isn't a necessity, and the game maintains a consistently smooth 30 fps throughout. Never had a single dropped frame in my 300+ hours with it. Up to you whether you prioritize higher fidelity graphics and visuals over portability. For me personally, the persona style of visual novel + turn-based combat + dungeon crawling in segmented sessions of gameplay, lends itself perfectly for portable gaming. --- "Splashing water on a pervert is like putting lasers on a shark" - Shiho Shishido |

However, there are some late confidant ranks that are locked behind Mementos requests. A far as efficiency goes, you only really need to go to Mementos at least once a month. I usually wait until a few days after clearing a Palace and letting a few requests build up, or if there's a confidant lock that I wanna get through. --- "Splashing water on a pervert is like putting lasers on a shark" - Shiho Shishido |

Yeah, the game really feels like more of an action jrpg, with farming on the side; rather than a full mix of both arpg and farming life sim. But who knows, this is just based on initial reactions to the demo, and they might have added a romance system for the full game.

Also it's relatively light on the Life-Sim aspects since, as far as I know, there's no marriage or romance system. There is a "trust" system where you gain ranks in "trust" for npcs as you do sidequests. --- "Splashing water on a pervert is like putting lasers on a shark" - Shiho Shishido |

I think you just need that sort of mindset to be streamer in general. Not a lot of extroverted people would be willing to sit in front of a screen for hours talking to a faceless audience. As for hololive specifically, they're actually one of the more progressive groups in terms of mental wellness. The talents all have managers to share their workload, and they're regularly encouraged to take breaks and vacations. Judgmenl posted...

That kind of gets into the whole "who gets to decide that a cow's life is worth more than a tomato's?" argument against vegetarianism that people like to break out occasionally. The simple answer is trophic levels: to grow 100 calories of herbivore meat, you have to feed them ~1000 calories of plant matter. The simple mathematical reality of the matter is that carnivory kills more plants than herbivory does. The elves in the mawha were mostly hunters though, and they operate more on a "let nature do its own thing, we'll just eat animals since we like plants too much" approach. Also, since it's a not-that-serious manwha the author made another trope reversal and made the elves somewhat meatheads, and let the MC bribe them with steak, so they don't really have that "old and wise angle" going for them either. --- "Splashing water on a pervert is like putting lasers on a shark" - Shiho Shishido |

| T0ffee 10/04/22 12:41:00 PM #1 | I was reading a manwha (korean comic/webtoon) the other day with a pretty unique take on elves. They're the protectors of the forest they live in and revere plants so much that they developed the ability to jump across treetops without harming leaves (think Tolkien elven snow walking but with leaves), wear hides and leather clothing, use metal bows and arrows, are disgusted by the way humans use wood for fences and buildings, and only eat meat. Now I'm wondering if there are any other depictions of elves in other series that follow that same train of thought, since it seems like that would be logical endpoint for a society of plant worshippers. Are there other games/books/comics that y'all know of with this take on elves? --- "Splashing water on a pervert is like putting lasers on a shark" - Shiho Shishido |
