FFTIC thoughts 3:

Camera sucks. It's hard to see things and the game doesn't care if you can't. If you missed where that mage is aiming the spell because of a building in the way... welp sucks for you.

you can see it from turn history menu, but I'd prefer to not have to do that.

FFT Ivalice Chronicle impression 2:

I like the portrait art style, specifically the lack of nose definition and general rendering details in the face. It's a very unique vibe.

Limping and bleeding out, but I made it to the true ending.

Act 3 spoilers: I thought [redacted] was gatekeeping one more nightmare platforming section into the true final boss, but turns out they were the true final boss all along.

yah can't even sit on a bench without something swinging down from the ceiling.

It's done 😭. Infinite box available and I still went with mence setup sweep.

I'll decide later if I wanna do post game.

I've been drafting out these mad scientist diagrams trying to find safe lines and stuff. It's fun in spurts but I've been prepping E4 for days now, and I'm starting to get tired.

It shouldn't be this hard, given how I'm playing with no restrictions.

Been playing PKMN Radical Red.

This is the first difficulty hack I've played and it is difficult all right. I have tripled my respect for people that hardcore nuzlocke these type of games for a living. I've been playing with no restrictions, and still getting my ass beat lmao.

shoutouts to an outsource dev team that we used to work with. They had like 100+ custom emojis on slack with varying degrees of NSFW.

My all time favourite was every time I sent them tickets, they'd respond/acknowledge with this:

"the following dialogue is paid for by the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party."

Robere looks a bit like Zach Lowe and I can't unsee it.

Anyways 6h in, the game is fun so far. I wish there were less camp parts/yapping and more battles though. The ratio feels really off even for a narrative driven game.

The game is also very dark, esp if the section/cutscene is at night. If I pump up the brightness then the day parts look blown out.

The camp segments feel like pulling teeth so far. It's tedious and fetch-questy like MMOs. At least FE3H monastery feels like playing Persona.

Going to ramble more about games here:

Lost Eidolons: the maps are very fun but I have some legit legibility gripes.

All the units look kinda same-sy, and the terrain (esp the puddles) is hard to make out if they're beneath the enemy range grid.
