They did it the first time going into Heavensward and I foolishly assumed they realized they'd made the WoL too powerful and would avoid doing that again.

As baller as Endwalker was, it went... places with power levels.

I played WW for about a month and was still unclear about 80% of the terminology by the end.

The FFXIII problem.

Neat game in many respects but.

It says a lot that I'm still playing it on console despite the REALLY weird menu controls when that's usually a deal breaker for me. Great game.

I'm in favor of it, but haven't heard coherent arguments for how from people informed on the business.

I guess my argument to that would be that Mass Effect feels like a fleshed out sci-fi setting. Andromeda feels like they just kind of added nonhumans in without really thinking about them. Everyone that's not a new specieskind of talks like a human, acts like human, etc.

I love parries, but the Souls games always made them feel really difficult and arbitrary to pull off. It's a skill issue, but I could never get the timing down despite really enjoying parries in most games.

Sekiro tho felt much more consistent. Bloodborne too.

I like that Metaphor Re-Fantazio explicitly points out rationale why the party might want to stop and do some extra stuff. I'm not that far in the game but it's done that several times already. And my brain appreciates that.

I do if I really need it! But 90% of the time items in RPGs feel like afterthoughts. Why use a megalixir when sidequests gave me ~infinite mp and a spell that full heals the party? Etc.

It's rare an RPG feels designed around item use. Feels neat when they do!

Yep! In my union local everyone is generally called a brother regardless of gender. Sometimes sister, sometimes not. Acronym of the international still uses a B. Tons of brother women out working hard. Nobody is confused that it's not exclusive to males.

I get that argument. I do. It's just. The result for me is "I don't want to play that game because chances are high the outcome is decided by rosters and nothing I do would matter so why play at all".

The baskets of their air fryer.

Vagrant Story. Top 10 story, best English script ever, combat system like Parasite Eve but way better, gorgeous music, peerless aesthetic direction.

Never re-released afaik.

Rarely mentioned.

Painted my first minis in 30ish years! ... wow there's a lot of info and tutorials out there.

Talk to the DM about the problem. Any good DM would be thrilled to work with a player who wants to feel more engaged with the campaign.

What to do when your painting skill improves drastically over the course of painting a single army.

That's cool! There's some really memorable scenes from it. The more I think about it, the more I think Rogue One might be my favorite Star Wars movie.
