Shieeeeeet...

She has only 5 hp but 999 dodge and loses 1 hp when you kill one of her minions. So after killing first pair she summoned 2 more and THEN they started summoning doggos too. Against lvl 0 random party.

Howdyou get it to run smoothly men?
The game can be run in 4k, but the frame rate is awful no matter what you do. Yeah, I'm using the GOG version. In GOG\Redguard\DOSBOX, open nglide_config.exe. Set the resolution. Then in glide.ini, under options, make sure resolution is set to your chosen width (1920, 3840, whatever).

Kraken was easy. If you kill tentacles fast enough he will just spend turns to summon new.

Terror mission went badly, due to being low on manpower and the Coelacanth arriving later than I expected. Most of the civilians were dead by the end of turn 2. My overuse of sonic pulsers destroyed a lot of equipment\alien corpses as well - regrettably I didn't grab a live Deep One.

Fortunately, I'd intercepted a lot of USOs during the month, so the target actually increased their funding. I started building a second base (in the Atlantic) early, which is now online. The extra intercepts will pay dividends in February.

Very busy at the start of the new semester. Was only planning to play 2 hours last weekend, ended up playing 20 hours and missing 4 straight meals. What can I say, I luv this game's first playthrough balance. Game is even better now that it isn't in garbled Engrish. Who would have guessed?

Replayed Silent Hill 3, PC version with widescreen patch. Unlike SH2, this time pc-port was pretty good.
This game looks fucking marvelous and puts some of modern games to shame.

Also Heather is the best female video game protagonist ever.

Fucking thing hatched from random piggu corpse, started eating corpses and alive pigs and after each meal it grows in size and stats and heal to full hp. Also it hits like truck. It's 4 phase. And there is even one more corpse left...


Aaand it summoned 2 more phase 1 from corpse...

For some reason your binoculars have infinite zoom. Depicted: an edge of a sign.

You can't really do much in the demo and the game points it out at every step.

Likewise very short. The gimmick is learning details about people's lives (requires paying attention to what they say) to unlock body switch option and then taking control over them to get different dialogues.

95% of jRPGs are unplayable without speed-up, which if seen the other way, is actually a good thing. If you missed out on some of them because they were too tedious, then with emulation you can have an alright experience and see what the fuss was all about.

I can't say I liked FF1 and FF2 all that much, but no way in hell I would have even tried without fast-forward.

The excessive grind is one of many problems of jRPG's IMO. The worst one is that they often force you to be an androgynous teenager with an oversized swors. I wanna use high magical power in high fantasy settings and "high technology" in sci fy settings, in medieval non fantasy games, i rather use polearms than swords.

PS : When i mean jRPG's, i mean FF VII, not Dark Souls and Dragon's Dogma.

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
The way text is slowly types out rather than appearing instantly is one major feature of JRPGs that absolutely annoys me. Why the fuck is this even a thing? Who came up with such a retarded idea?
