FlowerRhythmREMIX posted:What is Valkyrie Elysium? The JP box art makes it look interesting. It's the newest game in the Valkyrie Profile franchise, although it's taking more of a Souls-esque third-person action RPG turn from the looks of the trailers.

Waffleman_ posted:https://twitter.com/stephentotilo/status/1544362524845510660?s=20&t=f-eQZvMIoiZDVcuA9yVZ_A I once cared about this game and very much wanted it and then I saw trailers and heard news and was like, oh ok then. And now I'm still kinda keen because the original was rad, but I also have almost zero faith that the sequel/prequel/whatever will capture any part of what I liked about the original, so it's good that there's gonna be more Little Big Adventure to get me that French adventurey whimsy I want.

I'm a 'preferred' player (Spent, like, 80 bucks, and then used my cartel coins to unlock a few QOL things) rather than a subscriber and I've been gradually running a bunch of characters to level 50. (Years ago, I downloaded a trial version which allowed any species, so I made at least one character of each species, and now I'm trying to grind them all to level 50 to unlock all the species) Currently working on a twi'lek smuggler, which has been a good time so far.

Whizzing Wizard posted:I downloaded Swtor aka that star wars mmo for some reason. I have played it in the past, I even purchased the drat thing when it was released, but it's been ages since I gave it a shot. I know everyone gushes about the Agent storyline, and that is what I played last time but I had no idea what I was doing when I logged in so I created a new character. Went for the most basic character, a jedi person. It's like a mini KOTOR game for every class, mixed with the most absurd MMO monetization goofery on all sides. I vaguely remember even walking/running speed was something gatekept by money. I enjoyed what I played on the Trooper and Agent stories. I even appreciated they let quests resolve over remote voice communication sometimes instead of making me physically walk back to someone. but once I got to MMO spinning my wheels and trying to think about progression I lost interest forever

Ffxiv: Last night I marathoned / shotgunned / chugged the infamous pre-titan quest line, idk what got revamped in the revamp but it was fine, a couple of decent story moments and characters Still a qiest or two too long ofc, and made worse by the fact that the actual Titan encounter feels like a footnote, it's over so fast in comparison to the dumb chores the previous guys just made you do to prove yourself. Weird!!

Like there are still more of them than some people would want, but you won't end up falling down an eternal side quest black hole like in Xenoblade Chronicles or something.

Hilariously after reinstalling Steam I realized I don't really have many graphic intensive games, like MHWorld and BG3. Because my old PC made me not get them. And BG3 is getting an update soon so I'll have to wait. And since the PC is new I don't wanna risk it going to *forbiddeb places* and getting it infected, the problem with the hard drive already drove me to anxiety.

m.2 drives are so weird. It's like they released the prototype without finishing the interface, just stick this plain pcb into this awkwardly placed slot under your graphics I guess.

Iirc (possibly very wrong) it’s because the format’s origins are from laptops (so user convenience wasn’t a priority, but space saving was).
