I think there is too much of Peter Thiels money behind JD Vance for Trump to fire him

Tad Williams low key you get no GOT or GRRM without him. If you ever read the memory, sorrow and thorn series of books you basically see where much of the inspiration for GOT came from

Which is going to bite them in the ass in 3-5 years when Toyota, VW and a few others roll out the solid state batteries

Isn't Maine not all of nothing for electoral college votes? So while minor if trump did run he would lose some amount?

I loved a lot of ps1 era rpgs

One that always stuck with me was Legend of Legaia

Never met anyone who played it and the sequel on ps2 was terrible.

Some unique things I never saw in a turn based rpg again:

  1. Armor you could buy and equip per slot and you were able to mix and match.. This meant you could look really stupid when farming money for different sets but it was exciting to get a new item and equip it and see

  2. This was a turn based rpg but had some inspiration from arcade fighter games of the time.. You would enter your attacks like up down left right x y z and then say ready and your character would do a combo.. You could randomly enter combos and learn new specials and finishes etc.. Also a lot of ways to learn them through exploration and such

Not unique the game has a ton of fun side quests, games and secrets as well..

Yeah I started suspecting something like find could be impacting younger generations fertility rates as well but most the people I have known had issues on the woman's end.. Like endomitriosis causing blockages etc. I haven't spent a lot of time researching it myself but I wouldn't be surprised that not only are we economically disadvantaged but the rampant pollution is also driving lower birth rates for those who even try

I agree with most the points others in this thread make about the economy having gotten worse such that it discourages more kids.. I have a decent job and if I had a second child I think I would never have a chance at retirement.

I am also curious about rising infertility.... My wife and I had go through ivf to even have one child.. This after 7 years of trying..

Several of our peers and friends have struggled with this as well.. It could just be a coincidence but we only know around 20 other couples outside of work and at least 6 of them have not been able to produce children naturally.

I remember ff4 being turn based or at least the same menu maybe active time where if your too slow npcs will act but it's been awhile

FF12 had some bullshit chest near the beginning of the game.. If you opened it you lost the ability to 100% the game and get the Zodiac spear ( reportedly some ability to get one in a very tedious grunts fashion but it's been ages)

Basically the straw that broke the camel's back for me with ff.. The games story and combat was already a let down after they dropped the turn based combat like all of them ff1-ff10

But yeah generally I dislike many soft lock mechanics or illogical things that punish you for just playing the game.. Oftentimes these were put in games just to sell strategy guides.
