They were greek-speaking people whose ancestors had been greek-speakers in the same regions for at least 500 years before the Romans conquered them. They were greeks and also they were Romans, because by the time of the iconoclasm crisis they had been part of the Roman empire for a thousand years, and the heartland of said empire for 500

I noted this when playing Danganronpa V3 (lol) but there's almost no games other than niche visual novels that have a female MC and a first-person perspective. Like, Metroid Prime was the only example I could think of.

A Steam library full of games and this is what I'm playing.



I mean, it's a new translation for a game I'd been hoping would be translated for years (Stories of Ihatovo), but still, a couple brand new top-of-the-line games and instead I rush to essentially a proto-walking simulator/storybook for the Super Famicom...

Are you aware that your bow charge level increases by one when you do the sidestep?

More money to be made forcing everyone to own their own console, copy of the game, and paid online sub. Plus players like to have their own progress and achievements now. Games are filled with pointless carrots on a stick to keep you playing but don't actually have anything to do with enjoying the game.

There are a few notable split screen, couch multiplayer games though; Mario Kart 8 was designed for justifying murder, Black Ops 4 surprisengly has it for all game modes including Battle Royale, and Diablo 3.

I don't think the bow is really a great starter weapon. You have to manage limited coating supplies which you also can't really afford to restock (store sells them, never bother with crafting your own), its mechanics are somewhat complex, and ranged weapons innately lower your defense against physical attacks compared to melee weapons which can lead to a lot of frustration when learning the general flow of fights and what monsters can do. It also doesn't really shine unless you either have a bunch of skills and items that help with stamina management or know boss arenas to abuse its aerial attacks. I say give one of the melee weapons a shot. Switch axe, dual blades, and gunlance are very straightforward to use in my opinion. Others have a bit more going on or need more general game and monster knowledge but also have higher skill ceilings.

That all being said, every weapon is great and it ultimately comes down to personal taste for which one you stick with.

You don't really need to worry about the limited coatings before tempered monsters. He'll do fine with normal shots and close range.

I'll just say it. Bows are pretty boring and you should give other weapons a chance.
