here is a link to a reading of the fan manga, I dont think its finished, but it was decent fun. The tone/humour doesnt really feel like Dragon Ball but I thought it was decent

Theres a good fan-manga that takes place the first time Goku dies, and has to travel to King Kais place. He and Raditz meet in the afterlife and have some wacky adventures in Hell, and reconcile as best they can

Look into Crypto with practical real-world use. Bitcoin is like the first automobile. It changed the world by coming into existence, but new cars do it much better. Youre looking at Internet Explorer when you should be looking at Firefox or Chrome

Playing Earthbound rn and it just occurred to me that magic attacks are called PSI Attacks, not PK Attacks like Smash Bros uses. Why is that?

---

Patient Gamer

No but Ive heard good things.

No! How cool is that

On Steam? Like organize all the low-spec requirement games at the top or something?

or do I just gotta read the requirements for each game individually

Would have been awful. Also why I SMH at anyone who claims FF6 is best on GBA.

theres a patch to restore sound and colour

Dragons in the first FF? I can only really think of one important one

Anyways, FF1 is super replayable, I dont think its anybodys absolute favourite, but its a damn good time

Anyways, we can talk semantics as much as we like, but theres no excuse or explanation for the clear human rights violations

cutting internet, water, detaining reporters and denying freedom of press, heavy censorship, denying the rights of protest and assembly, controlling the media, religious discrimination, police brutality, and so on. There are videos of farmers being dragged bloody and beaten. Crowds being sprayed with water cannons and tear gas. A protester found dead with a bullet in his head. Government-hired goons posing as violent protesters in efforts to de-legitimize the movement. Modi has made no comment on the protests at all, it doesnt exist to him

---

Patient Gamer

Its not heavily subsidized, which is true. Agriculture is not a glamorous/lucrative industry there. Stop strawmanning, even if you nitpicked properly, it doesnt change the arguement, without a predetermined buy-sell agreement, Indian and Punjabi farmers would be getting the short end of the stick 100% of the time

---

Patient Gamer

*explains how your claim of a lack of buy-sell agreement being good is actually wrong*

>see? No ones listening to me

---

Patient Gamer

Farming is a heavily subsidized industry in Canada, America and so on, but not in India. Also, most of these farmers are in huge debts due to being forced by policy to buy certain products, not to mention the land itself. Farmers in India are not going to have the luxury of shopping around, because the buyers can just wait it out until the food must be sold or risk being spoiled. Its not a sellers market in India, and policies such as the lack of subsidization and incentive in general for farmers ensures that theyll never be in the advantageous position. The buy-sell agreement ensures they have a buyer, are treated fairly, and in a timely manner. Stop pretending like the small time farmers are going to be the winners of these new bills, thats borderline propaganda.

Most farmers are Sikhs, and like mentioned, Modi and the BJP enact policy in an underhanded way to shit on any non-Hindu populations. Its as much a fight against discrimination as it is a fight against unregulated neoliberal business

---

Patient Gamer

Dude stop gaslighting to make it seem like the issue is the farmers have a buy-sell agreement in place. The issue is that if there is no buy-sell agreement in place, they, the little guy, are the ones getting screwed. Either youre an idiot or youre trying to make it seem like you care about the farmers when you clearly dont

---

Patient Gamer

right now, the farmers are assured fair price for their crops because the buyer MUST buy (at the certain price) and in a certain time frame, so as not to pressure the farmers through spoilage of the crops. With the bills in place, the buyers can simply refuse to buy, until the farmers become desperate, and basically strongarm them into selling for dirt cheap. While at the same time, they can just be buying from the giant companies in the meantime

---

Patient Gamer

It opens big Monsanto-type companies to swoop in and undercut everyone, eat the loss and kill off competition

same sort of way Amazon will copy a popular product and price them out. But this isnt for some dropshipping hype item, its for food and peoples livelihoods

BJP thinks this way towards all non-Hindu demographics

---

Patient Gamer

Indian govt issued a public statement in response to celebrities bringing awareness about the protests, but have not said a word about the bills/protest itself

---

Patient Gamer

Modi only really cares about the Hindus in India, and would rather cater to big businesses that are able to undercut local businesses and destroy the land in the process, instead of considering the people of Punjab, which are mostly Sikhs.

Modi always uses policy to screw the minorities, he had put in an immigration/citizenship policy in place that basically stripped citizenship away from Muslims almost exclusively. As well as the hostile takeover of Kashmir

And your sisters story is just dropped hard. Like wtf? Lost in translation?

she never shows up after the reveal near the end, which is kinda dumb imo. I think they were setting up for a direct sequel or maybe just leaving it ambiguous/bittersweet

Patient Gamer

The game is split into 3 arcs

the first third focuses on you going out into the world for the first time in an effort to clear your friends name, meeting many people along the way, and getting into many misadventures

the second arc starts once Bosches name is cleared, and you all head out on an adventure together, helping towns etc along the way, as well as fleshing out party members with their own spotlight arcs, the same way FFVII did with Red XIII and Cosmo Canyon, or Barret with the whole Dyne thing.

the final stretch of the game, things have been slowly getting darker, and it finally hits that super grim tone here. Focuses on you discovering/dismantling the conspiracy at the center of the problems of the world, I guess.

great game, each arc has a different style/tone to it. The first portion is my favourite simply due to how funny it is. 9.5/10, has a little something for everyone

Is the fan translation patch for the snes version of the game? Or the gba version of the game?

only for the SNES translation, but its worth the switch over. Believe me, I was pretty disappointed too because of how much easier GBA games are able to be.. ummm... recreated

the retranslation is a make-or-break thing. Make sure you use it

Tapetas whole fake prince episode, f***ing gold.
Sten returning home in shame after deserting his country, amazing.
Getting cooked alive by a cat running a reverse restaurant, wow.
Nearly being enslaved as the boy toy of Nympho the Witch? Exhilarating.
Infiltrating the new dark church in town and uncovering the underground abduction/sacrifice area? Shivers.
The quiet Rand getting his spotlight-episode near the end of the 2nd third of the game, only for his mother to sacrifice herself? Tearjerking.
Ryu setting out on a quest to clear the name his dear friend Boschs? Heartwarming.
The gang entering a disgusting Iron Chef cook-off against a group of frogs? Hilarious.

I dont think Ill play this game anytime soon again, but god damn will I remember this game for a long f***ing time

Patient Gamer

What an absolutely magical game. Been months since I finished it but Im still thinking about it. The first half of the game has the same zany magical adventure vibe as Dragon Ball or the lighthearted parts of Gurren Lagann. Captures the imagination, so goofy, fun, and just f***ing magical.

edit: make sure you play the fan retranslation patch

Some politicians are used to a world where if you say a word against the government you go to prison forever

And they don't understand that this is not the way it works everywhere

facts. Modi has all the Indian Media in his pocket, must be frustrating not being able to control anyone outside that reach
