Hola! Disculpa la tardanza en responder, MAL no me notificó que recibí mensajes acá ese día y me fijé hoy de pura casualidad los comentarios lol.

Gracias. Espero que estés bien. Abrazos!

That seems like a smart idea, doing daily gacha grind after work would probably feel terrible since, in a way, it's a "work" too unless you're enjoying the process, but other than imas gachas and llsif I can't remember any other time I had fun with repetitive parts of gacha gameplay. There is an ironic example of Touhou - the main games are very fun and you can enjoy playing them repeatedly, but its gacha is just a chore.

The "too dated" argument started to feel familiar to me lately as well. After playing Kuro and especially Kai I'm a bit reluctant to go back to previous arcs (although to be fair, I'm not sure if it's just visual/gameplay difference or the fact that previous arcs have a severe lack of a certain silver haired girl). Otherwise... Yeah, there aren't many old games I still have interest in, so I don't feel that nostalgia bias.
I didn't like FF XIII, can't even remember its story by now, but I have a friend who is a massive fan of it. It's interesting how different games affect different people. The last one I've played was that one that had a team full of guys, but I dropped it fairly quickly. Same thing as it was with Witcher - couldn't manage to care about what's going on in the story.

Nope, first time seeing these names. It's kind of crazy though that Westerners decided to self-destruct their video-game industry and also managed to infect several major Japanese corporations with their anti-fun and anti-beauty ideology, so now it's China who is on the rise. I don't know if I'll play these games though. In January I played MiSide and Snezhinka:Sentinel Girls2, both are very short games (also finished Rance 9); in February it's just Kai, so my "media consumption" is very slow.

I saw Lies of P several times on Steam Store, probably looked through its screenshots too, but I didn't feel compelled to play it. If you decide to play it it'll be interesting to read your thoughts about it.
Looks like the owners of Elden Ring decided to profit on its popularity. Isn't this the first time something like this happens with Souls franchise? Well, hopefully the fans are going to like it.

Well, I've been on a diet since I was 20 so I can relate a bit. From my experience, the best motivator to eat healthy is when you start to feel sick, but it's definitely better to not reach such conditions. I wish you guys all the discipline and vitality you need to remain as healthy as possible.

Well, I'm done with Kuro I lines. You can just scroll through to see the amount of text, I can read all of it and even can recite some from memory. I think among all my attempts at studying Japanese this time I've progressed the most. Studying the sentences of someone I love so much is much more motivational than some random textbook stuff XD.

What are you playing during your working hours now? But yeah this new schedule sounds much more convenient and healthy compared to what you had previously. I remember a time when my shift was ending at 23:00 and I wasn't able to sleep up until late night because my body was still in the "work mode". But even if you manage to get to sleep it still kind of sucks waking up and knowing that you have a work day ahead of you so you can't really do anything nice or relaxing beforehand.

I played FFVII long ago, it was a good game but honestly I didn't feel like it was special in some way, at least to me personally. The testament of this is the fact that it never entered my favorites and I never cared about its characters much. That is to say, when the remake was announced I wasn't hyped about it. How'd you evaluate the game as a whole?

I think I could've completed all of Ys if I played it instead of studying Shizuna's Japanese lines haha. I started doing it last Autumn and almost done with Kuro I... It takes quite a lot of time, but also not something that I can do fast because of how memory works. I memorize the lines themselves and study unfamiliar words/kanji. Perhaps some would call it a waste a time, but for me it's more fulfilling than most other ways of spending my time.

He was eloquent, intelligent and genuinely funny while touching controversial subjects, so it was a good combination all around. I also like that even though he talked about societal and political issues, it doesn't feel like he's preaching to you in any way, more like he simply states his opinions on things in a humorous ways. I wonder what he'd have to say about the state of the modern world.

By the way, I wonder what will happen first - I play Ys X or you Kai.

A very famous American stand-up comedian of older times, had some great social commentary which can still be applied even today.

Some examples:

I enjoy exploring the world and seeing character interactions, so you can make a game where Shizuna travels around Zemuria, does random quests, fights monsters, etc. and I'll love it even without any major plot twists and story developments. Following the main events is also a wonderful experience, but I don't see the need to rush it. If this series maintains its current quality for future release, I can play it for as long as I live lol.

The stalking part is weird and overall feeling of Anilist makes it appear an unwelcoming place.

Eh, there are just some groups of people you are allowed to make fun of and others you aren't. For example, making fun of nerds, weebs, etc. is allowed pretty much everywhere.
Have you tried listening to George Carlin?

Well, I finished the game. There were some bugs due to inconsistency between PS4 and CLE's PC files, I had to alt-tab all the time because I've been playing parts with Shizuna in Japanese and had the whole game's script extracted and saved in a single txt file, but it was a marvelous journey. In fact, it was so good it killed my desire to replay previous arcs lol. That said, I expected the arc to be finished with this game, but apparently I was mistaken and the overall feeling was similar to CSI and CSIII combined, so there will likely be a 4th game.
Previously you mentioned that people were dissatisfied with the lack of answers and yeah - it is indeed so. A lot of crazy developments happened this time around, but they brought even more questions. I guess I'm lucky in a way that the main story progression is secondary to me so it doesn't bother me.

And yeah, Shizuna and Rean are both divine blades. Considering the other two are Cassius and Arios, all of them are great characters.

Were there any developments on Anilist for you since your last message?

Sí, el primer juego lo jugué gracias a Epic. Supongo que tu también lo debes tener.

Ah, vale, gracias. Creí que me excedí un poco con mi declaración, básicamente por que, cada vez que juego un RPG, tener alguien que da buffs o debilita al enemigo es primordial - junto con curar, obviamente - pero creo que no estoy solo en dicho pensamiento.

Muchas gracias.

Claro, aunque no es tan común. Creo que ya le van a poner más empeño a dichas misiones. Yo jugué Kingdom Come Deliverance 1 y me gusto mucho y del 2 solo he oído buenas cosas de él.

Yo puse en mi "preview" de "A-Rank Party wo Ridatsu shita Ore wa, Moto Oshiego-tachi to Meikyuu Shinbu wo Mezasu." esto:



Y eso es lo que quería preguntar, teniendo en cuenta tu gran conocimiento del genero: ¿Es cierto que el soporte en un RPG es uno de las clases más importantes? o ¿Solo son exageraciones mías?

Habrá que ver si ya ese será el clavo final para ff7.

Sí, aunque es algo que he visto que ha cambiado con el tiempo (a nivel de juegos de ese estilo), acaba de salir Kingdom come deliverance 2 y sus secundarias son excelentes; diría que dependen como las pongan. Generalmente son juegos estilo J- rpg no tan famosos y C-rpg (Los trails, obviamente, pero los "Fallouts" "Baldurs Gates" etc), pero han mejorado a nivel general. Esperemos que siga así.

Entiendo, ya veo que no lo conocía.

Por cierto, ¿Puedo hacerte una pregunta acerca de una duda que tengo sobre las clases en los RPG? Por supuesto, si no te molesta.

I did! Thank you!

True. Honestly though I'm such a fanboy nothing is truly comparable for me to Kiseki lol.

Well, they have the same master, so there's a lot of respect between them.

Yeah, you can't really just go to sleep right after work. Maybe physically you can, but mentally it's very difficult, unless you're so tired you can't stay awake lol.

I don't "believe" in the zodiac stuff, but it's still fun to think/read about it sometimes. Aquariuses are often described as weirdos for some reason lol.

I guess UI isn't the only terrible thing about Anilist...

You can take me for example. As you know, my worldview and proclivities are very niche and normally would cause many normal people to treat me like a crazy/loser, but regardless of what you might think internally overall, you don't treat me this way because we're friends and there is mutual respect between us. That's how acceptance is formed, not by shutting people up.

You know, I started playing Kiseki in spring 2017 and my experience with Neptunia was before that, I wonder how I'd perceive Falcom-chan now. My favorites used to be Plutia/Iris Heart and Noire.

Well, his appearance makes a lot of sense story-wise too so it's not just fan-service. He's pretty badass here but still maintains his respectful personality, I'd like to say I like him even more now, but he was my favorite protagonist even before Kai. Also, I find the way he and Shizuna talk to each other adorable.

Yeah, I think it's more convenient to start your day early. Imo you need some time to unwind before going to sleep. So yeah, congratulations.

We are Aquariuses so since we're dealing with water all the time we're pretty chill people ha-ha.
Thanks. I spent some of that day playing Kai and you can't really find a much better way for me to spend my time lol.

I'm not an English expert, but isn't what this mod is saying kind of bigoted in itself? The thing people like that fail to understand is that you can't force acceptance, the only thing these methods achieve is breeding animosity towards the groups they're saying they're trying to protect.

Don't forget to headpat your students a lot!

To be honest, I think even aesthetically Aether even looks better. Lumine is kind of plain in comparison.

Can you remind me who your favorite Neptunia characters are?

Oh, so you've spoiled Rean's appearance for yourself. Mmm, wanted to tell something more, but maybe it would be spoilers too, so I won't. Anyway, if all past Kiseki games are masterpieces, language experts will need to come up with a new word that would describe a masterpiece among masterpieces for this one.
