Finished FFXVI last night:
- Solid action game.
- Side quests were very bland and tedious.
- Voice acting is actually good! Dialogue is well written. Fewer anime grunts.
- Story is solid.
- Universe is nice and dark. Cursing and “nudity.”
- Eikon fights are AMAZING
8/10
Oh, and the soundtrack was solid, especially the big fights and Eikon fights!
All in all, first mainline FF game that I really enjoyed since FF9, which came out in… 2001? 2000?
Those of you playing Diablo 4:
Thoughts? I’m a HUGE Diablo 2 fan and really got bored with Diablo 3. Is D4 great for someone who loves D2?
I want to play games that are fun and not just a giant time sponge. Tharnks!
My only real complaint about FFXVI is that it’s REALLY fetch-questy. Even the main quests.
I find myself stopping when I have to “gather five thingies because nobody else can.” 😑
So, I've been doing some YouTube research on data backups, and for offsite NAS backup services, I've come across Synology C2, iDrive, and BackBlaze.
BackBlaze seems like the most affordable and feature-rich. Any techie nerds out there have some thoughts?
Based on the principles of physics, it is theoretically possible for a planet to have a donut-shaped structure.
To maintain the stability of a donut-shaped Earth, it would need to rotate at extremely high speeds, resulting in shorter day durations. Consequently, the gravitational force at the poles would intensify, approximately twice as strong as at the equator. The Moon would continue to orbit the Earth, as long as it maintains a sufficient distance. If the donut-shaped Earth has no tilt, the inner edges would receive no sunlight, while the outer edges would experience increased sunlight exposure, leading to significant temperature variations and extreme weather conditions. However, if the tilt remains unchanged, both the inner and outer edges would receive adequate sunlight.
It is worth noting that a naturally occurring donut-shaped planet is highly unlikely unless advanced extraterrestrial beings decide to create one.
Not to be that guy, but... Metroid Prime 4? Is it real? Cancelled? HALP
Also, a tiny little Dragon Quest III HD-2D update would've been nice, but y'know, whatever - games and shiiiiiit.
Super Mario RPG is coming to #NintendoSwitch with brand-new graphics on Nov. 17! Join Mario, Bowser, Peach, and original characters Mallow and Geno, in an RPG filled with twists and turns.
When playing TOTK, does anyone else ignore those goddamn koroks who “can’t reach their friend?”
I flip ‘em the bird. If you help them, they give you poop.
Ain’t right.
