I got my first 10 star arena win within a day. I also pick animals based on cuteness and luckily they're powerful.

Turtle is just incredibly cute and strong.

A lot of them are just saying the name except goose. Which is an angry hiss.

Also the Boar is ridiculously cute. I do feel like it's effect isn't super useful by the time you can actually get it though.

Yeah boar is a bit too late for me most of time. For tier 6 I'm looking for black cat or dragon most of the time.

Edit: Also otter is stupid strong because of how the buy ability works. Each you put an otter onto an other that either becomes level 2 or starts level 2 will trigger the +2/2. So the buffs work like this : +1/1, +1/1, +2/2, +2/2, +2/2, and then +3/3. With each otter gives itself a +1/1 bonus to stats. You can't buy anymore otter onto a level 3 otter unfortunately.

It would have to be FTL-Lite because I can imagine fat-fingering someone to the wrong room or not being clutch enough on opening or shutting a door or something an ending a run. But yeah, I agree. Even a knockoff would be good at this point. Surprised nobody has tried.

How do the new final fantasy remakes play on mobile? I have a bunch of Google play bucks in my wallet that's about to expire but I'm a little apprehensive nonetheless because of mobile controls and the steep price tag.

Mostly concerned about the controls though

I've only got ff5 but the controls are unusable. No controller support, no run button, and there are two modes of movement. The press and drag is hard to use even for that style, and the tap and go can't go into secret passages. Unless they've updated it, it's absolute garbage

I don't understand why it's so hard to give people the rerelease we want

The Final Fantasy Tactics port has surprisingly decent touch controls. For better or worse it's the PSP version of the game.

Unfortunately, last I looked it still doesn't have cloud saving and you can't move the save file without jailbreaking your phone, so you'll lose all progress next time you change devices because gently caress you, that's why.

Jailbreaking your phone? In Android?

---

In modern Android I've had to connect USB to my PC to get full access to the file system, but I didn't need to hack anything after they made that change where apps can't access system files or the files of other apps.

(I did this to copy my Steam save of Slay the Spire to the Android version.)

It's probably possible to move it even without root, I moved my DQ3 save from a Zenfone to a Pixel 3a.

XCOM 2 is on sale for $14.99: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.feralinteractive.xcom2_android&hl=en_US&gl=US

I'm playing it on my Galaxy S9 SD845 and it runs pretty well! It's clearly dropping below 30fps sometimes, but I'm not too bothered. I think it'd be better on a large phone as it's a bit fiddly on the 5.8" S9, but honestly it's a really well done port and I haven't encountered any showstopping bugs, and only had 1 crash in about 4 hours of playing or so.

Took me 5 runs to beat the boss.

So looks like the option to unlock the next Island is to watch 19 adverts in full in a row.

I never got that option the first time I clicked no. There was only the option to pay.

Yeah, $10 is pretty steep. $5 would be more reasonable in my opinion.

And I suspect future islands will be double the ads.

But at least you can watch ads for leaves whenever you want so you can spread it out beforehand
