my drive for that kind of stuff comes and goes, I've played the rando on and off and even tried speedrunning the vanilla game for a bit. we'll see how long this burst lasts, but I'm pretty happy with how quickly I've cleaned up my runs after only being at it for two weeks.

Yeah. Like I said in there I'm mostly just going along for the ride. Like I am thinking about the story and how it fits together of course, both as I play and with some of my free moments when I'm not but really these posts are probably the most serious I get at actually putting the whole puzzle together so it just seems like a huge mess where I spend the rest of the time before the next post thinking "Oh wait, what I posted was dumb because x, y, and z would contradict that." but that's the fun.
But this is generally how I approach stories like this, I enjoy being taken on the ride and being surprised so I usually don't dedicate serious time trying to solve actual mysteries. (Most game mysteries aren't that tough of course so they can be "solved" trivially like "Who is the traitor in a Tales game", etc.) --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? ...

Yeah, I'm not actively trying to solve stuff while I play either because I enjoy the thrill of being surprised by the twists and the emotional moments. It's more fun that way for me. I might try to connect pieces together based on what the game has already told me, but not much beyond that.

I don't talk about personal stuff too often, but my mom and stepdad are getting divorced. They signed the papers today. Their 25th anniversary was a month ago. I never really thought of him as a "dad" per se, but he's been in my life since I was 9 or 10 years old. It's just weird to think that he won't be around anymore.

i think the MWC explanation for the goku/frieza fight was that it did take 5 normal minutes, they were just fighting super fast and they slowed it down an extreme amount so we could see what was happening.

I thought it was because Frieza misjudged how long it would take so the fight was actually a bit longer than 5 minutes.

13 Sentinels: Miura and a bunch of fights. Much shorter report as a result.
Miura: Then, as I knew from the lock description it was time to - in the immortal words of Eren - "Fight. Just fight." Had to get to 2-5 to lift locks on Ogata and Minami and the 10 fights from 1-5 through 2-5 comprised the rest of my session. Think I'm getting a much better handle on the battle system (Sentry Guns and Interceptors OP), though some weird stuff was going on in 2-5 where a turn for someone would come up and it would switch off them despite no input from me. idk if it's a glitch or just my controller dying/sending false signals... it is pretty old at this point afterall. Got a ton of Mystery Points during all this and have almost unlocked all the Analysis Files I had. Something like 10 left locked. That said, some interesting stuff here on the story end was Next time will be Ogata, Minami... and maybe some others depending on if that lifts some of the other locks. ~~~ F/GO: The siren call of temptation compelled me to roll on Arjuna Alter's banner. I had allotted 10 tickets to this and expected nothing but kinda wanted Asclepius at least. The tickets gave me nothing so I was like "Okay let's multiroll 3 times it'll be fine." ...Got Asvatthaman but no Asclepius so I was like... "Okay make that 5 times" and got him... and at this point I had talked myself into "Okay, okay, so like the Anniversary will be over 200 SQ we can push this to 10 rolls if we have to." On the 7th roll got Arjuna Alter. So, yay, now I have a top-class damage dealer. Only I'm not in a good position to level him right now so I think I'll just wait for the anniversary in about a month since it'll have the magic "go right to max ascension" button. Only now I gotta farm these dumb Eggs of Truth. I mean, I already was simply because they're a new material so I figured I'd spend at least until the next event doing so but these drop rates are atrocious. I'll need 30 in total and I'm at 14 (I had previously used 5 to get Karna's SSJ costume whoops lol.) Eh, at least that's enough to get one skill to 10. Hopefully I can get to at least 20 by the anniversary. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? ... Copied to Clipboard!

Egg rates are bad but you should be able to get 1 a day. I managed to get 1 Asclepius in 1 ten roll.
