legit could have nominated 4 LoR songs because there's a lot of styles covered across it all but hopefully these were two good ones for you. if we get more noms later don't blame me if i just keep tacking more on lol

Also very technically, many of the battle themes in LoR are dynamic based on various factors so while on the official OST Angela is broken into three parts that link has all 3 together. The music changes dynamically (in this case by phase, it's different in some other cases) and is signalled by that snapping noise (which is what is used when the song dynamically shifts to a different version in-game too) and that video notes the different segments as well. In the actual game you'd probably hear Angela 1 loop a few times before it shifts to Angela 2 when you've progressed far enough in the fight, etc.

After that there's a fade and a white screen where Vita, Lloyd, and Rixia give quotes too, presumably because I used them for the mirrors.
Yeah, you get those scenes for having used the Mirrors. The Mirrors themselves were free DLC in Japan that got added after release but was just included natively in NA.

Also you have now seen why the Black Records being NG+ only is such BS. That whole scene with Thomas is locked behind NG+. which is some real bs.

Also onboard the ship I ran into Bridget who is receiving those unique dishes I failed to make, so I just caved and looked up a guide. It worked after doing what the guide said but I swear that I tried every combination before so I have no clue what was different. Maybe I just had to change rooms, Elliot clearly wasn't feeling inspired enough on the bridge.
Just bad luck I suppose. A character who can make a unique dish isn't guaranteed to. It's a % chance. A pretty high one, hence "bad luck" but it can miss.

It also pops up with a message saying that a shrine has opened up in Ymir Valley, so let's check that out! Optional bonus dungeon time? I was just complaining about this game's lack of super bosses.
That is a NG+ exclusive boss in fact. A few other details you've mention have been, like the ability to exchange U-Material for Zemurian Ore Shards at all. What's weird though was that on NG+ I could have sworn that remained an option all-game so you wouldn't "waste" them at cap as you say. Maybe it's a quirk of how the NG+ file was made? idk.

I'm just realizing that I didn't bring any characters along to have a showdown with Mick, but I also think nobody really fits the bill. It's probably just Rean since they're demon buddies so I'm sure it's okay.
Emma gets some extra dialogue where she starts speculating on his demon powers and wonders out loud if it's connected to Ouroboros's Divergent Laws (previously referred to in regard to Loewe's sword when he used it to bust Weissmann's Aureole barrier) which prompts McBurn to immediately tell her to stop talking.

_stingers_ posted...
Vita also says that she learned how formidable Osborne was when they worked together in Liberl...huh? Is this in relation to the war that was happening where Erebonia invaded before Sky, or did they have a part to play during Sky as well? I'd assume the former, but the latter would be pretty interesting.
Back when Liber Ark appeared and the Orbal Shutdown Phenomenon shut orbments down in Liberl, Erebonia immediately rolled up to the border with a division of steam-powered tanks to offer "assistance" in resolving the situation on the pretext that the Shutdown was spilling over into the very southern reaches of Erebonia too.

Olivier defuses it because he makes his "I'm da prince" reveal there but more importantly because the guy heading the division there was Zechs who's legit and agrees with Olivier's plan to buy a few days for the SC crew to handle it. Afterwards, once he rejoins the party, he explains that the fact that Osborne had a steamtank division just sitting there ready to mobilize was the final proof he needed that Osborne was working with Ouroboros in some capacity because there was literally no reason to have such technologically inferior tanks laying around in great enough number unless you "knew" orbments would suddenly just stopped working in an entire country so he had to have inside info from them.

I always assumed Vita was referring to that. But yes, it also opens up questions on how long he may have been working with them and on what other projects.

_stingers_ posted...
Osborne really doesn't waste any time, huh. I guess he's been out of the picture for a year so he's got a lot of work to do.

You tend not to play in many Pro Bowls when you're in the Super Bowl for half your career...!
While that's obviously a factor, it's actually more that Brady just skipped out on the Pro Bowl for most of his career.

Of his 15 selections, he only took the field for 2... and they were both years in which he actually went to the Super Bowl! (2001/02 and 2004/05)

Who are the best coaches in the NFL right now? The ones that actually make their teams better and don't just win because they have the best players.
It's a cliche top 3 but I'd probably say Belichick, Tomlin, and Payton (okay technically not in the NFL now but) They've all had HoF QBs and talent but they've also shown they can get teams to fight and overperform even when they are missing that (2008 Pats, this year's Pats, Steelers lately with Ben basically a Weekend at Bernie's character, Payton similarly dragging the Brees-less Saints to the verge of the playoffs)

I think the next tier for me would look something like this, no particular order:

Vrabel (Yeah, Titans have King Henry but I've been very impressed how he's had them going these past few years)
Harbaugh
McVay (Harder to tell because he had lots of talent on the team even before they took it to comedy levels this year but hey he got to the Super Bowl with Goff!)
Reid (time management memes aside I have to give props to the breadth of the resume)

I mean, yeah, at first it "just" seemed like the Dolphins trying to cover their ass but some of the details alleged in the lawsuit mention things like Ross trying to get Flores to recruit a "prominent QB" back in 2020 (shouldn't be Watson, timeline doesn't work; See some reporters speculating it may have been Brady) and Flores wouldn't play ball because these attempts would be in violation of tampering rules and that ever since Ross treated him with disdain.

Just makes the whole thing seem a lot more malicious IMO.

Bleh, both games went against my preferred picks but we eliminated all the bad teams last week so it's okay.

Go Rams. Stafford deserves a reward for retiring Brady and perhaps it is only fitting that we move past this most grievous error in the timeline with the Rams winning the Super Bowl as if the record player stopped scratching and finally started playing where it left off.

Teams that win the toss drop to 10-2 with 7 first drive TDs.

It's still bad.
Within the subset of playoff games. It's far more even if you examine the much bigger sample size of "all games."

Romo had a point there in noting that playoff games tend to have the top QBs though which ties into my point that the rules crippling defenses and protecting offenses is the bigger issue.
