pity it's pretty awful to actually play but there's some character background in there that kinda feels like it was originally intended for the base game

there is no definitive version of p3 and likely will never be. there are rumors of a bigger remake but uhh those rumors also say femc won't make the cut which, having her content portrayed with as much detail as the ps2 version would've been the primary reason to buy one

Agreed but we can leave some of the Ruin route jokes in Vanguard Bandits

E: actually we can bring some back.

In the game the lethal joke mechs are called no. 86's, and when you beat Faulkner piloting one he says "no more 86ing for me!"

But if you see the screenshot in the strategy guide, which used an older version of the script, they're called no.69's.

86 is bartendering slang for "cut that guy off from the drinks". I know that because that's why Maxwell Smart from Get Smart is Agent 86.

86 can also mean removing an item from the menu or being out of something, or ejecting a customer completely.

I see it's a very versatile number

I vaguely remember hearing it used as a euphemism for kill in a movie and in retrospect that's almost certainly a repurposing of it as food service and bar slang

Huh. I had heard the murder/kill meaning before, and also the restaurant meaning, but I had assumed the former came first.

How much grinding am I going to have to do to beat Octopath Traveler 1's true final boss? From what I read, it is a significant difficulty spike and you have to fight a gauntlet of 8 bosses before fighting him and there's no save point at any point. It seems...not worth it, and yet I can't seem to find a good cheat engine table to help me just brute force it to see the ending (I realize Youtube exists).

Depends on how leveled your entire team is, since you have to use all 8 characters. I always level everyone equally (it had been a while since that particular brand of gamer brain came in handy) so I had to do zero grinding. I think most people itt will siggest skipping it but imo it was a pretty fun challenge to cap off the game. Tho if you are expecting any story or resolution after the battle you are going to be sorely disappointed
