  • Well, playing Eternal Sonata. And what happens? Got a lesson on how taxes work.

    :blob_neutral:
    Sovereign Night is almost halfway done with its editing. Half will be free to read over time, but that’s all that can be offered.

    Right now, I am working out a reasonable price point for when the collection no doubt gets really large, and I am starting to get a solid idea on a fair amount.
    Claud AI just became entirely useless. They lowered the limit to an unusable amount, and last I checked they are putting in a weekly limit.
    Playing Xenosaga trilogy at the moment. Pretty good story to it, the gameplay is pretty good when you get to it.

    But jeez, I literally barely played the system for most of the time I have been playing. Story is pretty good as I say though, so I don’t mind much.
    Replaying Shadow Hearts 1 with the knowledge of 2 in mind. And the replay really puts things into perspective.

    Disc 1 of covenant was so atrocious it needed to burn. Disc 2 felt like it was written by an entirely different person.

    The direction and everything felt like it was done by another team. Disc 2 of covenant had to pull massive weight since 15 hours was wasted with disc 1.

    They pulled off a miracle and made covenant memorable by getting back into its roots and finishing off strong.

    Anyway, given disc 2. Going back into the first game makes you notice the small stuff.

    This series needs a remaster. And disc 1 of covenant needs a complete overhaul.

    With an actual third game to cover the final loop more clearly, showing all the differences that leads to the Good End from 1.
    Love this track. It hits a lot harder, when you realize Yuri’s decision is choosing his death. How he dies, going out on his own terms.

    Ain’t know if romance has been targeted or not. Likely the witch’s fault. Though, for the longest while. Romance has been avoided by one group, because in the end.

    It ends up being less about that and more about the drama, sex, etc. As for being banned? Not sure, I know on the marketing side of it.

    Processor companies have been getting more ridiculous and targeting things they deem as pornographic.

    Because we have only a few payment options, companies themselves. No matter how large, are forced to bend to their demands.
    They really pulled off a miracle in the second disc. It went from complete crap to complete amazing. :blob_dizzy:
    Okay, so disc 2 is definitely better than disc 1, but it will still need a miracle to come back.
    On disc 2 of Shadow Hearts 2. Disc 1? Story is horrible. On top of the flat characters, Yuri was massively regressed.

    They didn’t even do a good job of showing the mistletoe effect, and Alice was almost nonexistent to show Yuri’s depression.

    On top of the disjointed story, they pretty much try and force connections to the first game, but weakly so.

    While the system is pretty good, it suffers from one major flaw. And that is when it comes to ambushes. Either you get surrounded and nearly get wiped out

    Or you surround the enemies and just end the battle.

    Most music in disc 1 isn’t bad, but just doesn’t stick out positively like Shadow Hearts 1, disc 2 is better than disc 1 in that part of it, but not by much.

    Most fusions are just bad. Grade 3 can be okay at lvl 9!

    But really, the only fusions that are actually good are Neo Amon and Dark Seraphim, but those are optional fusions at the end game.

    Most fusion designs also suck, except for Neo Amon and Dark Seraphim.
