There have been three times where a book series has just been so damn good I reactivate socials just to congratulate them on a gripping story.

This was a damn fine book and I CANNOT wait to see what comes next.

Never have I been captured by staircase climbing before Joe. And this book scores his second victory here too.

He takes a lot of the best concepts from his previous series building, then compresses, then spreads it out throughout the world with a masterful stroke.

And never forget the twist.

Imbalance as it stands now**

That will end very badly, since J6 was on the heels of a transition. Currently there is still enough support on the wrong side to make Guantanamo a reality.

Don’t comply, but don’t start violence… with the power imbalance.

Targeted ban with clear dissolution. Thanks for the perspective!

I’ve been out of touch with modern because standard was actually fun for a little bit.

Is breach enough of a ban or unban? Feels like a ‘good enough’ ban and doesn’t actually try to shake the meta enough.

I’ve been trying to get into digital art on an iPad, and cannot for the life of me get any Adobe brush to just act like a pencil for the life of me.

This looks effortlessly serene. Mad props to the time and dedication you already put into your craft!

People die when information is shared in war.

As much as I love the sheer stupidity this error was; this costs multipliers in casualties if it continues.

Was DoED perfect? No. it at least provided guidelines and was a reasonably ok comptroller for education funds. All education programs were already at the behest of states over fed. This is just going to make underperforming states/districts worse, and the “good” schools will lose bodies to private.

This one was already a mess before DoED was dissolved. Fed enforced academic excellence metrics by standardized testing and dispersed funding to states based on that. Which then states either misappropriated or dispensed on a sliding scale of their district performances.

Then no child left behind.

States were allowed to gut education funding for ineffective pet projects as long as minimum requirements were met.

AppleTV already does this unless you disable the appletv app. Unless I’m missing how much of a cardinal sin Roku broke here. No firmware tied ads, but FireTV levels of ad on boot.

I can keep going if you want. Most have entries at least ~10 years relevant, I think. I leave my hole once I finish my backlog like a responsible person.

Loosely defining JRPG:
Unicorn Overlord
Valkyria Chronicles
Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth
Odin Sphere
Dark Cloud 1/2
Scarlet Nexus
Nier:Replicant/Automata
Tales of Graces:f remaster

Instructions unclear. Local utility company yelling at me about the new acrylic dome covering the utility access port.

This is the remake of the game that was on WiiU right? I must have come in on it at a bad time because I just remember this game being really open… and kinda barren?

Just wanting to see if I missed something when I first played this since I’m a xenoscrub and only play the series casually

They did. It was ignored. All they can do out of position is say, “hey that’s not right”

It’s mainly because the JRPG hasn’t really /evolved/ like other non sports entries. We have action JRPG flavors and strategy JRPG flavors (western also falls into this trope) so it’s mainly memories of simpler times for us older folks. Everything else has gotten a new variant, not just mechanically.

I caught a Star Wars one last year and it was fantastic. What’s this called so I can keep an eye if it rolls through towns
