Eonwe posted:yes, it depends on the game, but generally speaking japanese text is faster to get through than other text They said that for this one the only time difference is in the initial text. There may be some glitches that don't exist in the English version. I know that SMRPG will be in English, and that the GDQ staff specifically requested the English version.

Burginator posted:Gnu was telling me about another run he did where he held somebody's hand the whole run He was supposed to hold hands with a girl who is battling cancer and has also lost control of half of her body. Unfortunately, her condition has worsened and she couldn't travel to SGDQ. It's one of the reasons he was so emotional. It's also why he wants the FFA girl to be named Sam.

Internet Kraken posted:There's an atrocious amount of words, none of the characters are memorable in the slightest, and the combat system is nothing special. I legit don't get the appeal for it other than nostalgia which did not hold up when I played it again several years ago. A friend of mine bought the Italian version of Golden Sun. It's great for reading practice. I do the same thing kind of with Pokemon games now. I play one in English, and one in Italian.

I recall reading of recent studies showing that, generally speaking, having a movie/book/tv show spoiled doesn't substantially reduce the viewer's enjoyment. I would probably enjoy reading your dissertation.

Twitch bits are stupid. Notch is also stupid. Therefore, Twitch bits = Notch. The man simply hates himself.

Majuju posted:This is sort of hilarious because almost every big streamer already has a tip jar, and will prominently display the highest tip in their current session, and allow people to send in messages with tips that're then read with text-to-speech. They've been doing this for quite some time - this is simply Twitch legitimizing the process, which was separate from subscription money as far as I understand? Twitch is taking a higher percentage than the alternative systems were. As long as linking to your PayPal donation page isn't banned, I have no issue with Twitch instituting the new system. And Twitch isn't dumb; they know how much money people will throw out just to see something happen in chat.

Majuju posted:Twitch Bits are apparently $1.40 for 100, and 1 bit = 1 cent for a streamer. PayPal margin is supposedly 2.2% + 30 cents so it's probably...close? assuming Twitch isn't also taking a cut on the back-end, so it's really just Amazon trying to get in directly on action that's already happening. Y'know, like allowing operators to charge people to access private servers in the game you develop, or something. If you're buying a dollar at a time, sure. If you're spending more, PayPal becomes a much better deal than Twitch Bits, even with their discounts.
