Steins;Gate LBP needs to stop making me tear up/cry.

I feel like every story has done that to me at least once but Mayuri's hit the hardest so far, I think.

Hey TRE, let's say (strictly hypothetically, of course) I wanted to get rid of some of my old games and I wanted to let B8 have the first crack at them

How would I have to make a (strictly hypothetical) topic in order to avoid getting modded for it?

You would probably need to hit up the Board 8 Discord if you wanted to do that. For sale topics aren't allowed on the boards. Although, from the ones I've seen on Board 8, the mods don't enforce the rules often. So a hypothetical topic might never get deleted.

AoT Season 4.2 Episode 5:

I feel vindicated that Armin was just completely delusional about Eren being a good guy all along who was just playing 4D chess. suck it armin, eren lost it a long time ago and your insistence otherwise was annoying af. but also gonna need some serious deus ex machina to stop him now. based hange save us please.

Seriously though, unless someone else can get through to Ymir I don't see how they get out of this one. If Eren *literally* pulled everyone into the Ymirscape then it might be possible but idk that felt more symbolic but then that place is weird maybe you can exist in both at the same time.

Also that Ymir backstory was really screwed up.

I'm certainly not as avid of a college basketball fan as a college football fan, but I do keep up with them. They've rarely been good (at least in men's basketball; the Lady Vols under Pat Summitt are legendary, of course), but that's slowly been changing. Regardless of what you think of the dude, Bruce Pearl put the program on the map for men's basketball, and Barnes has done a good job since he took over, too. Literally the first time in my lifetime they've won the SEC Tournament, so it's a big deal. We've never made the Final Four, so maybe we can check that off the list this year, too!

Steins;Gate Linear Bounded Phenogram beated.

Very good VN... bonus content? Whatever you want to call it. Very strong recommend to anyone who enjoyed S;G. It's basically 11 short stories (About 3-4 hours on average if you read with Auto) with one from the PoV of each Lab Mem + Mister Braun + Nae (Okabe gets 2 which is where you get 11.) And they're all pretty great. As I mentioned earlier, a lot of these stories hit me hard emotionally at one point or another and brought tears to my eyes.

The only real downside is the dumb choice to make the only way to get it to buy Steins;Gate Elite and not allow it to be available separate. That said, if you loved S;G it's still probably worth the bigger price tag but I can totally understand if you're like "yeah no I'll wait for a sale because that's just dumb."

also look how dang stylish this OP is:

Probably about 60% through Wheel of Time Book 9, and we finally got the Mat storyline rolling again! We finally meet the fabled Daughter of the Nine Moons. I half figured she would be a Seanchan since literally nobody Mat asked had ever heard of such a thing, and I feel like there was a passing reference to something about the Nine Moons relating to the Seanchan in one of the earlier books, but I could be mistaken.

Attack on Titan Season 4.5 Episode 5 complete!

So Eren and Zeke both had genocide plans, just the targets of their genocide were different! I kind of agree with their shared basic premise that as long as Eldians and Marleyans both exist, this will never end (although the Marleyans are the real monsters here, but Zeke and other Eldians on the mainland have Stockholm Syndrome to the extreme and think they're the problem). Not saying I agree with Eren's genocidal plan any more than Zeke's, but the Eldians aren't the bad guys.

And while I guess you're not supposed to be rooting for Eren's plan to succeed, this whole thing shifted because he's literally the first person in 2000 years to treat Ymir like a real person and not just a slave and an object to be used.

AoT 4.2 E5:

I don't think that's entirely true. Zeke/Eren's "It'll never end as long as one of us remains" thing may be true given the constraints the Will of the First King put them in but strikes me very much of "We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas!" The First King, in their guilt over how the power of Titans was used to oppress the outside world, made the unilateral decision to rob everyone on Paradis of their memories of the past and that there even *was* an outside world and explicitly waited for revenge to come and exterminate them. Getting the power of the Founder out of the hands of the Will of the First King allowed them to have other options though - for the first time Paradis could try diplomacy. Hell, Hange and the Survey Corp had succeeded in working out an alliance with that one nation that claims Mikasa is their lost Princess or something. A path to mutual coexistence was maybe possible. It'd be tough because of how screwed over they had been by the Will of the First King until nearly the last moment but it existed. Hell, they developed a game plan to re-enter the world stage. Their version admittedly was horrific itself with how it treated Historia but Armin actually pointed out in his "don't worry guys Eren is in control!" ranting how they could avoid even that and still have a path forward if Eren activated the Rumbling but just to kick Marley off Paradis and dissuade any further attacks while they built up.

I feel like the problem has always been the power of the Founder in particular is just too powerful a thing to be held by any one person because in the wrong hands it can just screw everything up. The First King decided all Eldians should die for the actions of their ancestors and basically set things up so it would happen. Zeke had no hope the situation could be resolved and just wanted the suffering of Eldians to end and thought a mercy killing would be best. And now Eren has taken the idea that it can't be resolved and gone the other extreme like you said and has decided to just kill everyone else. Even if someone more levelheaded like Hange got the power it'd just be a matter of time before someone else did because of the whole Curse of Ymir 13 year time limit. I feel like you'd ideally want it to reside in some random Eldian who didn't even know they had it so the temptation to use it, or for others to use them, wouldn't exist.

Eren's right about Ymir though, that's true.

Eren's right about Ymir though, that's true.

Like I said, I don't agree with his plan, but I don't think the Marleyans would ever truly accept them because they're terrified of their Titan powers. And to an extent, the fear is justified because the power of the Founder has the potential to ruin everything for both sides, as we're seeing. So really, the problem is Fritz, not Ymir. If they could find a way to undo all the stuff Fritz locked into the power of the Founder, then there might be a way out of this.

The potential hangup here is the Marleyans might still try to attack them anyway, not believing their Titan powers were truly gone, and then they'd be defenseless.

The Nine Moons get associated with Seanchan earlier, yeah. Mat's associated with ravens a bunch too, just like the Seanchan are. Mat's storyline is probably the highlight of the meat of Winter's Heart.

I generally like the first game's OST more also, though there's a few songs from NEO I really like. Most notably the one that plays in the boss fight with (week 2...day 2 I think...Leon has already posted about it) Mr. Mew right when you meet with "Neku"

It also helps that NEO reuses like half of the songs from the original game.

TWEWY2 Week 2 Day 4 complete! That one was quite a doozy. We learn that Shinjuku was wiped off the map by another set of Reapers, and those are the ones in charge of this game, which is why the rules are different from the first game's. They apparently work by the same rules of divergence that Steins;Gate does since nobody in the RG remembers there was a Shinjuku in the first place. So this is what would've happened to Shibuya if Joshua had decided to follow through with his original plan, huh.

And speaking of Joshua, where is he and why is he allowing this to happen? I'm sure we'll get that answer eventually, but it's curious. Also, Swallow finally confirms that he/she is indeed a part of the Reaper's Game, but they won't divulge which team they're a part of. I don't think they could be Motoi or Kanon since the game implies they've been doing this for a while now, but I'm trying to figure out which other named Players we even know of. I suppose the twist could be that they're actually one of the Ruinbringers, but I'm not sure that would make sense either.

Seems like there's discord among the Reapers about the current state of the Game, namely about the Ruinbringers' streak of dominance. We got plenty of help to get through this day and win the mission, but I can't tell if this is legit or just a setup. Considering we're still on Week 2, I'm guessing it's a setup, but we'll see!

Vegeta assumes Gohan died fighting Buu since he can't sense his power level anymore, but he was just critically injured and unconscious. Piccolo overhears Vegeta say Gohan is dead and assumes it's true, too, so he tells everyone else.

The only one who knew he was still alive was Supreme Kai. The reason they're planning to fuse Goten and Trunks is because Goku assumes he can't fuse with Gohan since he's dead, but even if he were, Bulma's wish would have brought him back, meaning they could fuse. The point is one way or another, Gohan should be alive.

But apparently no one's thinking through the implications here!
