Mage Life🏳️‍🌈

@PeterP_1985 Agree. It was all about finding the most damaging hit combos and just doing that over and over again to every enemy.

Final Fantasy 16 has flashy looking, but painfully shallow combat

@animeoutsiders Uhm. Early dev interviews about the game while it was in development literally said they had the team watch the entire series of GoT so…yeah.

FF16 was such a bait-and-switch. We all thought it was returning to classic FF roots with the more pure-medieval setting, until the game came out and it turned out to be a cynical attempt to cash in on Game of Thrones' popularity, but had come out long after GoT had shot itself in the foot and people had started to hate it. Still not the worst bait-and-switch the franchise ever pulled. That was FF7 Remake.

@ProfNoctis Gosh I’m so sorry to hear about your loss :( I know that you will always miss him terribly but it sounds like you have many fond memories to keep in your heart. Always remember those moments and the grief will hurt less each day.

Yesterday my dog, Fischer, died suddenly and unexpectedly. I’m still in shock, blindsided by it all. He was as central a member of my family as any person. I’d like to tell you his story, briefly. 8 years ago, my 12-year old dog, Bandit, died after a long battle with kidney disease. A week later on a fishing trip, my brother encountered an abandoned, starving dog that swam out to his boat. When no owner could be found, I reluctantly took the dog in, and named him Fischer. I’m so glad I did. Along with his older sister, Daisy, he was my pandemic dog, my hiking buddy, and my left armrest while watching tv or gaming. He loved pawing at Red XIII (which we jokingly called him, the counterpart to my other dog, a Torgal lookalike), and he loved play fighting me while I tried to make my bed after he would crawl in it during the night. He loved playing fetch, and especially curling up against me for safety during storms. He was 90 pounds of rambunctious devotion. And God he loved me. We unknowingly spent his final morning on a hike. He chased and ran and played like usual. It was a perfect last memory with him, doing what we loved doing together most. He was “a fine hound,” and one of my favorite blessings. We’re going to miss him so much, but are so thankful for his life. That’s the thing about gratitude. It commingles with grief in such a way that both can breathe. And in that way, I guess I can breathe, too. At least, that’s what I’m trying to practice. Every gasp of sadness is met with an exhale of gratitude. I know many of you loved seeing him on stream. The couch behind me may have a Red XIII-sized hole now, but I’ll always cherish the memories of us in that room. Maybe we’ll do a Fischer stream and talk about grief soon, but I’ll need a minute. Today though, I want to thank you all for loving him, and me, so well. Thanks, everyone, for your prayers and support as I breathe through this.

@HaniMeowMeow @Genki_JPN I’m not worried about it. She’s still dead and his feelings for her don’t change that and I seriously doubt the devs will change that or say for certain one way or the other who Cloud ends up with. Look no further than Advent Children though.

@magelyfe @Genki_JPN You’re in for a rude awakening.

Naoki Hamaguchi says there is a scene in FF7 Revelation that always makes him cry: "There's this scene that's quite essential to the story of Final Fantasy VII where Cloud goes into a moment of introspection and discovers his identity, and how it fits with Zack and Aerith. I think the way we portrayed that in Revelation turned out very well, and we're eager for fans to see it," "I've finished Revelation about 40 times, and every time that introspective scene with Cloud made me cry." omelete.com.br/games/final-fa…

@Buttlightyear38 It’s common sense. The guy was stoned out of his gourd while being mako poisoned and was likely susceptible to suggestive language and Zack, through having gushed on and on about Aerith, inadvertently brainwashed him to fall in love with her.

@magelyfe Lmao imagine being so delusional. Which stupid fanfiction did you read?

@Martyrdomer @Genki_JPN Does he though? Or was he inadvertently manipulated into loving Aerith by Zack. It’s possible that due to the mako poisoning he became more receptive to suggestive statements and accepted them as facts. There’s evidence of this occurring in the real world through use of drugs.

@magelyfe @Genki_JPN But he genuinely loved Aerith tho.

@pradaculture @Genki_JPN Cloud and Zack are relatively the same in terms of personality and that’s why they became fast friends when they were assigned together and sometimes that comes out. But most of the time he’s just awkward post mako poisoning because there’s a battle going on in his head.

@magelyfe @Genki_JPN Weird cuz the Cloud Tifa likes is when he pretending to be Zack

@Techjunkie_Aman It’s gonna cost $1200 isn’t it?

The Steam Machine hype just got bigger. Fresh leaks claim Valve's upcoming gaming system: • Beats PS5 in single-core CPU tests • Beats Xbox Series X in single-core CPU tests • Runs a heavily optimized version of SteamOS • Review units are reportedly already circulating The biggest unknown? GPU performance. Without gaming benchmarks, it's impossible to know how it stacks up in real-world AAA games. Still, if these leaks are accurate, Valve could be preparing its strongest hardware launch yet. Would you buy a Steam Machine over a PS5 or Xbox?

@xMBGx Honestly there hasn’t been all that much new going on with the PS5 lately. And with the price of hardware skyrocketing how much will a PS6 cost? $1000?

With everything that's been going on with both PlayStation and Xbox, it's worth checking in again. As it stands right now, which next-gen console are you leaning towards? The PS6, Project Helix or neither?

@EmilySm43 Bitch Tiddies

Give him a rap name 👇

@Dexerto It took so long because their online game was raking in the money and they didn’t have the incentive to make a new game. But I would agree that AAA open world games in today’s fidelity expectations can be a costly venture.

Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick says GTA 6 took so long because Rockstar is trying to do "something that's never been done before" "That's really hard, and it takes a long time"

@HasanabiProd Asmongold is a weirdo who spends most of his time living in his own filth in his attic with no real friends. Of course he’s a bitter person. He doesn’t fit into the normal world and he knows it.

Asmongold panics and quickly closes Hasan's video after realizing Hasan described him perfectly Hasan: “Culture war narratives try to divide the working class" Asmongold: "Don't EVER listen to this...men in women's sports😡"

@the_spy_wonder And I’d let them both spit roast me.

notice how Reed is hairy and how Johnny isn’t

@DashingDavidYT Makes me wonder what summoner will do exactly…

Still hoping there’s more than just these 4. Seems far too limited for the concept. 4 per character itself is fine tho. Hoping each character has 1 exclusive.

@DashingDavidYT I mean he’s the 2nd most popular video game protagonist in Japan I think

He’s objectively top 5. Objectively number 1 as well 😌

@Oceaniz96 Yeah I hope they can this design for part 3 if there are moogles. So ugly.

I broadly enjoy the aesthetics of the FF7 remake but its version of Moogles remains one of the worst things I have ever seen

@RockstarGames Not preordering until you show more of the game. The nerve of posting a moneygrab video when you havent shown any gameplay.

Pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI will officially begin on June 25 on digital storefronts and at other select retailers. Check out the official cover art, also available as downloadable artwork at rockstargames.com/VI

@SunGod87 I mean those are some bangers for sure. Especially stoked for Revelation myself. What non-Square Enix game are you most looking forward to though?

@magelyfe I'd have said the same if I worked elsewhere ☺️

Dragon Quest XII Kingdom Hearts IV Final Fantasy VII Revelation

@maximilian_ You’re also inhumanly tall lol. That machine needs to be put on a rising platform or something

Legit could not play this machine standing up without going full hunchback. Unless I’m spooning the whole cabinet, knees have to be on the floor. I swear it wasn’t always like this…
