Saw a list someone put together of all the VGMusic they played. Whoa they had Song of the Ancients too, that's awesome. Also weird absence of Nintendo.

It was overwhelmingly Square Enix. Chances seem pretty good that they asked Nintendo and Nintendo said no.

I am done through volume 6 of the Kaguya-sama manga (the election arc is next). It's interesting that some of these stories appear in a different order in the anime. There are also a couple of stories I was kinda sad missed the cut (like the one where Kaguya asks Shirogane to get rid of a bug in the council room).

FE Three Houses: You know, over two routes (admittedly Crimson Flower/Silver Snow) I don't think I ever got a reason for why Felix had that hostility towards Dimitri... until now with their C Support. Didn't see that explanation coming!

Wheel of Time book 5 complete!

4 > 2 > 5 > 1 > 3

The first half was good, but the second half is when it really picked up. There's no way Moiraine and Lanfear are dead. Feels way too soon to be rid of Lanfear especially. Her connection with Rand is too strong, so I think there's still a lot you can do with her. R.I.P. Asmodean though. I feel like that death will stick, which is kind of a shame. I was kinda interested to see how long his loyalty to Rand would last.

This was a great book for Rand, Mat, Aviendha, Nyneave, Moiraine, and Birgitte. Not such a great book for Egwene. Bring back Perrin.

Been too long since I've read it to remember exactly what happens when but I remember book 5 being my favorite of the first 10.

Egwene is one of my least favorite of the major characters but I remember her getting better later on.

Mat/Rand/Nynaeve the best imo.

FE Three Houses: Dedue's Paralogue one of the few new maps in Part 1 for me and I liked the concept that the green "ally" army is lowkey your enemy and you have to killsteal from them. It's basically how I play anyway because I view them as stealing potential EXP but neat to see it actually incorporated as the map gimmick.

Other new map so far was the Hapi/Balthus paralogue and lol even the DLC Paralogues a bit of a difficulty spike. Though not really in a tactical/strategic way just the enemies hit harder than anticipated for the recommend level/the other paralogues that open this chapter so I got caught offguard at first when I would get hit for like 70% of my max HP lol so I couldn't just watch entire armies crash upon, say, Felix alone... they'd actually kill him if they could land two hits. >_>

Dedue's Paralogue spoilers
Fun fact, you really do need to kill steal to get the maximum reward. If you just donk the boss on turn 1, you get the minimum reward.

Haha, that's kind of funny. It probably shouldn't work that way but I guess they were aware of cheese strats like that and wanted to make you do it the intended way.

F/GO: Well, it's taken a year and a half and who knows how many tens of thousands of pulls but I now have Angra Mainyu. (He's a Servant in the free gacha only who is kinda a joke character and has the lowest summon odds in the game, I am not at all joking with "tens of thousands")

not sure if this is a good or bad omen when my fight with the true gacha begins Sunday for Merlin.

Picked up GAA yesterday - I did watch an LP of both of these a while back, but don't remember many details aside from the big plot points. Got through G1-1 a while ago.

I'm kind of mixed on it. On the one hand seeing Ryunosuke come into his own over the course of the case was great, and the cast was overall pretty fun. On the other hand, the pacing was pretty slow, especially at the end. Maybe I've just played too much Ace Attorney but as soon as Hosonaga mentioned collecting both steaks I knew they got swapped, and yet getting there took ages.

Still, mostly glad to have more Ace Attorney to play, and the characters are pretty fun. I remember this game being weird in a few ways, but it should be a good ride.

G1-2 beated

Yikes, that has to be one of the dumbest and most unsatisfying murders in the series, especially considering the victim. Though I do have to give this case credit for establishing both Susato and Sholmes - they're a lot of fun. Props to the writers for making an assistant that isn't Yet Another Maya (even if I do like the others, Susato works well with Ryunosuke and Sholmes so far).

I'd be fine with realigning the divisions by geography, which would basically just move Alabama and Auburn to the East and put OU and Texas in the West in their place. I also do enjoy the potential hilarity of them trying to maintain the current East/West breakdown and throwing OU or Texas in the East for no rhyme or reason. I'd be cool with an annual UT/UT game!

Honestly, if they moved Auburn and Alabama over, they could get rid of the permanent cross-divisional game (since Tennessee/Alabama and Georgia/Auburn would play every year now as part of East divisional play, and those are the only two that actually matter). That would mean getting to play the other teams in the West more regularly.

That's the one thing I kinda hate about the way it is now (in addition to Tennessee being the only East team that has to play Alabama every year, which is a huge disadvantage). We only play all the other West teams once every 6 years (and that would become every 7 years if they don't change anything). Of course, they'd have to expand conference play to 9 games instead of the current 8 to avoid that, too, which means the big programs probably schedule more cupcakes out of conference to balance things out. Naturally, it becomes harder to play everyone the bigger your conference gets, but I like getting to play the other West teams more often.

I am low-key kinda nervous about these rumors about there eventually being this coalition of 40-60ish high profile college programs and everyone else getting kicked to the curb because Tennessee has barely been relevant in the last decade (we haven't even played in the SEC Championship game since 2008) and I'd be worried we'd get left out. I just hope Tennessee's history (we're still the 12th winningest program ever and have the third most bowl appearances ever despite the decade plus of mediocre or bad football) would allow us to get included, even if it means we'd be a punching bag at first (unless Heupel turns out to be the real deal, fingers crossed!).

Its the weird thing of I dont think they are going to kick out current members if there is some sort of break away effort.

Id be more worried for the Ole Misss and Vanderbilts of the world if they do start removing teams though.

It's probably going to happen eventually now that the NCAA is all but finished. The major football powers have no use for them now. It's just a matter of how soon and who gets included of the major conference teams.

I think the main thing is them trying to figure how to do it without harming March Madness

Because no one will care about watching that if only the top 40ish teams are in. You get a higher quality product but thats not why there are millions of brackets made every year

Yeah, that's why some people surmise that it'd be a 64-team coalition because they could just run their own March Madness every year, and every team gets in.

But there's no way Duke or Kansas is involved in something like that because it's based on football and they bring nothing to the table in that regard. UNC, Kentucky, and Louisville could maybe get a pass.
