  1. What sparked this thirst for Dark Souls lore within me? 

    1. Raindrop Valkyrie

      Couldn't say, but there's quite a well to dive into that folks have pieced together that's for sure lol

  2. I would have never thought trying to trade for a copy of Shadow Hearts: Covenant would be this difficult.

      As far as I'm aware the game was actually not run for a lot of copies outside of Japan and the fact we even got it in English was pretty wild. So sadly gettin' a hold of it these days can be quite the challenge as l'm sure you know.

      Shame as it really is a cult classic in it's own ways from that era of RPGs. There's a lot of super good systems and so many well executed crazy ideas in there. l'd love for more folks to see such a game.

  5. I wonder if anyone would ever be "intimidated" by me on the forums. Highly doubt it tbh

    1. Raindrop Valkyrie

      Raindrop Valkyrie

      l dunno if just likes would cause such frankly lol. The reaction probably certainly happens to mods and the likes though l'm sure. Though l can't say any cases made themselves apparent to me during my mod stint so *shrugs* lol

  6. TW: Suicide Mention;
     

     


    So, a few years back; I had kind of hit this point of absolute rock bottom; I made a post about it here and my overall state after a particularly bad moment, not sure if anyone here totally remembers it or if most who were around when I posted it are still even here.

    But, in the post I mentioned where I had gotten to a point where I was ready to take my own life; I had climbed up to the top of a parking garage to jump off but wound up not going through with it.

    Today, I revisited that spot for the first time since. I did it with my current love interest; mostly because she wanted to take pictures from the top of the parking garage, the view is actually beautiful. But, getting to the point; on the exact point that I stood the night I wanted to just jump and end it all, someone had carved in to the concrete "Don't Jump."

    And, I really don't know how to take it. Or, what to feel. I don't know if it was in response to a stranger who saw me that night, or what. But, I have this heavy feeling from it now. It's not a bad feeling, part of me wants to just believe that even some stranger out there cares about a random person hitting rock bottom like that. And, if that's the case, I wish I could find and thank that person.

    I'm in a much better place now, and if anyone wants to ask, yes I'm okay. I'm more okay than I've ever been to be honest.

    It's hard to believe I was ever at that point now; between the abuse of my family, the abusive relationship I was in at the time, and just so many more compounding factors from struggling with my own identity and who I am to no one wanting to actually listen or care about what I wanted; the trauma is still there, but now I'm with people who accept and love me for who I am. Both my love interest, and my new friends. And, I really can't believe the difference it makes just having people willing to let me be who I am and still care about me in the end.

    I kind of feel like I'm just typing this for typing's sake at this point, but, I needed to let it out somewhere.

      l do remember actually... l was under a different name at that point though. l used ta be known as Hukuna if that sparks any memories, if not no worries~ ❤️ The reason why's not a story that needs ta be told here however. 

      l certainly did and each and every time l saw ya again l was happy ta see ya, happy ta know that at very least you fought through another day. l don't truly deal that well with this subject... it hits a bit close ta home for me and with folks l don't know well it feels hard to find the words. But, l'm glad that person put those words there even if you only saw them so much later... even if they weren't truly for you and perhaps another.

      Further, l'm glad a memory other than the first can exist in that place for you now. One that tells a much different story, and that you found such a thing on the return.~ ❤️

      and lastly, l'm happy you could post this.

      l'm perhaps just some stranger on the internet but... it genuinely fills me with happiness whenever l hear of another like myself who found whatever way they could to climb out of that place. Of another soul that found their way to keep on living~ ❤️ 

  7. Would using the meanings of the Major Arcana for Tarot cards be a good Idea for an animated TV show?

     

    Making it relevant to the plot and not shoehorning it in because “the lead writer loves Persona”.

     

    1. Raindrop Valkyrie

      Raindrop Valkyrie

      lt's... not exactly something that' groundbreakin', and Persona's hardly the first thing itself to make use of the motifs that come along with the Arcana. Due to how open to interpretation they are and the general knowledge in the public of the concepts it can be a pretty good thing to play with in such a format as it can be in any media really.

      People enjoy figuring out their own "Tarot" and the like or relating characters in media it's not present to them as well so iot tends to be a theme that when does well resonates pretty strongly with folks. 

      ln short: Easily if the time's taken and it's not just lip service to the concept

      The sad part is at was at one point but they lost the rights ta have it up there cause that's how l mnaged ta see it a bit back

  9. So, Why is Sexual Harassment as comedy such a common thing in Anime today? 

  10. I think I'll alter my favorite Myrmidon to Joshua

    1. Raindrop Valkyrie

      Raindrop Valkyrie

      Well what she needs more is her promotion class to not literally be probably the worse promo for lords in the entire series. ~~lt's just objectively a worse version of Swordmaster/Nomad Trooper~~

      l was referring to Eirika as well who's basically just Lyn with better growths XD 

      l've had 2 Lyns cap strength prepromo cause l'm made of demon luck

      Raindrop Valkyrie

      josh is a good lad, l just rarely use him as l prefer Marisa as a character to him and usually use her instead. My luck weirdly tends to like the lady Myms a lot more ~~especially if we count 2 very specific Sword Lords~~

  12. Iron Head vs. Iron Tail? Which is better?

    1. Raindrop Valkyrie

      Raindrop Valkyrie

      lron Head is usually much better. The 20 base power increase on Tail isn't really worth the acc loss as it's about 20 less then most moves usually are that sacrifice the accuracy for power.

      Their secondary effects are also worth considering where there's usually much more use out of flinches then a def drop.

      Tail's useful if you need the coverage and lack access to other Steel Type moves or just really REALLY need whatever it's covering extremely dead right now regardless of the loss in consistency.

      ln general lron Head is just much more dependable and rewards kills that require 2hkos much more than Tail.

      XD, ye sometimes it's just a hell of time getting things ta work out. l tend to have extremely awful luck on pretty much every Ross and pretty much most Wyverns.

      Meanwhile...l've had a Lyn lmost cap strength prepromo and actually cap prepromo before. That's never supposed to happen.

      Where the levels land is an adventure man... and part of the fun.~

      Raindrop Valkyrie

      l mean ye sure. But Zerkers and similar classes aren't really counter to that. Zerkers ~~and axe units in general~~ tend to be made of a fuckload of meat. Might not have raw defensive stats but certainly the meat ta take hits. Ya also probably have plenty of staffers out there, staves are pretty good for that problem.

      My playstyle tends towards more durdlyness myself, but it's fun to try new stuff now and then hmmm hmmm.

      mages make short work of like... anything that can't counter though. And just put a handaxe on that Zerker... they'll fucking die trying to pull anything cheeky XD.

      They also really aren't that plagued by bad acc given they don't need powerful axes, they can just sit on a nice comfy killer axe and haaaaaaaave fun.

      Eh, he's fine in Hero. lt's just there's no other possible Zerks. Well, there's a prepromo one who's completely fine, just no other raisable ones.

      Look... you're not choosing Warrior. That's pretty much the dud choice.

      pretty much everyone goes Berserker so...lel.

      and it's really only dumb for Ewan he's just... hard to level without some light tower grinding. His stats are super pathetic for when you get him regardless of route.

    my Ross at the moment. not sure if great or RNG Skrewed

    1. Raindrop Valkyrie

      Raindrop Valkyrie

      He's pretty much dead ass on average for his level. He's got a bit extra Str, and quite a bit extra Skl.

      Ross's Speed Growth is pretty awful... and it's usually the thing that'll hold him back if anything. But he's aight right now.


      Short Answer, Neither. He'll at the very least appreciate the hit chance though being an Ax Lad. See how he compares ta Garcia if you're not using him at that level his father starts at. ~~or just find Garcia's base stats lol~~

  20. Super Smash Bros is a rip off of Call of Duty because one of the characters can throw a grenade.

      worst part being l've seen actual internet arguments of this calibre meant to be taken seriously. lt's... hmmm...my faith in humaniy dwindles everyday.

  21. After playing both games for the first time, I like Resident Evil 4 a lot more than The Last of Us.

     

    Resident Evil 4 is more atmospheric, and I find myself more attached to Leon rather than Ellie or Joel.

     

    Am I an oddball?

    1. Raindrop Valkyrie

      Raindrop Valkyrie

      l'd don't imagine so. RE4 is oft considered one of the better ones of the series. Last of Us certainly has it issues and personally for me wasn't a game l culd muster my way through. The story wasn't really something the gripped me enough to struggle past the gameplay that really wasn't my cup of tea.

      l can't really speak on RE4, not played it myself... but l know enough t know it's not really something l'd think is that crazy ut f left field and l'm sure you're not the only one thinkin' it no matter how beloved Last of Us is. ~~lt's a rather speific thing but l'm sure there's more than RE diehards that'd say as much is what l mean XD~~

  23. I've never played a single Tales game, nor have I touched Resident Evil.

     

     

    What am I missing?

     

    1. Raindrop Valkyrie

      Raindrop Valkyrie

      Ye Tales is a solid series, though suffers from varying levels of quality throughout the series lifespan.lt's more of an action RPG with how the combat style works but it honestly feels quite unique and fun. Try one out, you'll probably dig the others enough to play them if you like one of them.

      Just avoid Zesty Ranch ~~or Tale of Zestaria~~ it's was honestly jsut so bad l couldn't sotmach more than an hour of it. lt bad.

      Resident Evil l can't really speak on as l've not much touched that series but it's sorta all over the place? The first entries are very different from RE4 and onward. Just be aware. ANd then RE7 sort just... goes back to the original style of the games. RE is a... bizarre series.

  24. So finally popped in Star Ocean The Last Hope and dear Lord I was struggling even in the first segment. Also I dunno what that first boss was on but it took like 12 minutes to take him down. Regardless I'm really enjoying it despite the reviews.

      Star Ocean...hoo boy have fun in that rabbit holeof... something XD

      lt'slargely terrible, but, terrible can be quite fun and enjoyableso ye.
