I’m surprised no tracks from mainline Final Fantasy have been posted! So many too choose from, but my personal favourite is Battle at the Big Bridge from FFV.

Also, it’s usually overlooked, especially in comparison to other games from the same era, but I do love the soundtrack from Super Mario World.

I got baited by this. I kept the one I got predicting it may be needed for the seals, just to be told “oh no, this time it’s a different kind of items, go farm the mines again for the void stuff”. So I went and donated the fish, thinking it wouldn’t be needed…

It’s a shame I didn’t get to see the final dungeon before dropping the game, though. I can only slave for the town so many times before I say enough is enough!

I got so excited, thinking it was a full remake! But I guess a port is also a welcome addition. Though it would have to have some QoL and othe goodies included in other to make it worthwhile vs just playing it any other way you can.

Terranigma is perhaps my fav game out of all the snes library, and perhaps even across all consoles. So anything regarding it is welcome, but considering how some recent ports have been nothing more than glorified emulators-in-a-box, I think it’s best to keep the hype in check.

Not dropped entirely, but Ceave Gaming. I haven’t been able to finish a single one of his latest videos, and while I once liked the convoluted way he approaches topics, lately I just want him to get to the point. His latest challenge vids are also fun, but I don’t know, I just can’t stomach them for long anymore. Not sure if it’s just me having less free time or patient, or something more intrinsically in his vids, but I guess at this rate I’ll be unsubscribing soonish. :(

I was waiting for the sale to buy Elden Ring or DS3. Been wanting to replay them, this time with mods. But it seems they skipped this sale… of course they did.

Yeah, me too here. No website is important enough to need to endure ads for.

I’m a bit lost with all the recent developments, but in the end, does this mean that installing from, say, F-droid or similars won’t be possible at all?

Sorry for the stupid question; it’s getting harder to keep up with all the bad developments in the world.

I don’t think the devs are interested in that… considering that the game’s been out for a while, and even has DLC, I think that’s the gameplay the dev wants. Which, again, it’s not inherently bad, just not aligned with what makes a game fun for me.

Started playing Monster Train 2. Loved the first one, but oh boy, 2 is such a let down for me. Feels like it’s poorly balanced, on both player and enemy sides, and it’s just an exercise in finding the most BS broken stuff rather than properly strategy.

It’s not a bad game, mind you; it’s just that perhaps my expectations and the game were not aligned.

No, libra (the unit of mass), and libre (being free) have unrelated origins, afaik. Libra comes from scales, as in the Libra constellation, wheveas libre comes from liber, related to freedom (and not books (or “libro” in Spanish); that’s a different word), which apparently comes from even older languages, meaning “town” or “people”.

It’s called Theater of the Mind, I think. It used to be the way we played ADnD, but I guess that the newer editions pushed the minis-and-grid with their more tactical playstyles.
