Y’all prefer dry sandwiches?

Every so often I think about the fact that there are actually real people with real chodes and it legitimately makes me kind of sad

I will never understand this one. Like, at least respect yourself enough to think you deserve literal seconds worth of effort

Edit: maybe nobody has ever told you. Hey, you have value and worth. You’re deserving of good things and worthy of reasonable effort to achieve them.

Why are the animal’s choices never considered in this equation?

Sapience vs sentience. Hope that helps your understanding!

You, my friend, are 100% correct in your take on the topic.

Boring pop culture opinions that nobody actually likes but which wear the cadence of interesting content so people unthinkingly clap along out of habit even though nobody is actually edified by it or sincerely enjoying it.

I think this kind of meme is the same thing as people who pretend to hate the word “moist.”

Listen to this person, not to me, as it sounds like they actually know what they’re talking about 👍

See my reply to the other commenter

That’s fair, but you don’t gotta invite them in. And I will remind you that “outside” is kind of their domain, not ours 😉

All that said though, a rock or sand yard is still vastly better than a manicured lawn which serves basically no purpose other than to take in resources (mostly water) with no real output. Hell, even if you paved over your lawn with one big slab of concrete that would still probably be ecologically better than the waste involved in maintaining a manicured grass lawn!

Natural yard full of native species > gross manicured yard

Lol, when I describe the song to people what I say is almost verbatim: “it sounds like they stumbled upon one really solid guitar riff and were like, fuck it, play that shit for the next 4 minutes! Umm is that gonna be enough for a song? Who gives a shit!”

So yeah, the riff is pretty good

Caroline, every time.

Sweet Home Alabama is just awful

Yep, that’s why I brought Tales of up in the discussion; glad you agree on the similarities despite their differences too

I agree with all of that. My personal biggest issue is the combat, but it isn’t the only issue and it isn’t the biggest issue with the idea of the game as a concept.

But unfortunately SqEnix recognized FF7 for the cash cow that it is, and seem fully-devoted to milking it for every last drop it can offer

I can only speak to my experience. I love the depth of FF7’s turn-based strategic combat, meanwhile I literally haven’t finish the first FF7R entry yet because I keep literally falling asleep during combat. I’m not being hyperbolic, I’m not being facetious, I literally have fallen asleep dozens of times during combat trying to finish that damn game.

If the combat speaks to you and you enjoy it, that’s awesome and I’m glad it can deliver to you what you need. But for me, I think it’s even worse than the combat in Tales of Berseria and I hate the combat in the Tales of series.

I love action games and I love RPGs, I just personally rarely find half-measure crossover gameplay styles satisfying.

This is a strange exclusionary way of considering happiness, tbh.

Like even if I want, and maybe even would be most happy, to sit down in front of a plate of duck a l’orange for dinner doesn’t mean I can’t or won’t be perfectly happy eating a sirloin steak for dinner instead

Edit: for clarity, I am referring to your father’s view on happiness, not your response to it

Fr. Calling FF7R a “remake” of FF7 with its significant story changes and shift from perfect turn-based combat to the most mind-numbing half-measure “action RPG” combat is like saying you’re going to remake Tetris but now it’s a first-person shooter

All good; I wasn’t trying to be offensive in my reply and was sincere in calling it poignant. Sometimes I get worked up and make tangents that feel vaguely related too. We’re cool if you’re cool ✌

What a wonderful and poignant aside that adds absolutely nothing to the discussion at hand.
