Compared to modern games, it is very good. Some of the characters are very annoying, IMO.

Compared to classic RPGs it doesn't compare. I'd still take DQ III, IV, VIII, & IX ahead of it.

Look on the bright side, this is the death of the MAGA nation. No republican who ever wants to win another election will do anything but condemn this. Also this kills ANY chance of Trump hitching his wagon to the Republican party in 2024

You would think.

But, there were a record number of voters in the last election, and it was still close.

You can protest all you want, once you start destroying public property and present a real threat to other's lives, you lose all status as a protester. They are no longer protesting, they are rioting.

This is no different than those who burnt down the Police Station.

I was a DC elementary schoolteacher for literally one month.

First day of school, I shit you not; a parent fought a fifth grader because the fifth grader called her a bitch. FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL.

I hear you. I'm actually thinking of going back to teaching, but I keep remembering things like this. The pay vs crap you have to put up with really isn't worth it. The only reason I'm considering going back is because it doesn't require traveling and I want my summers off.

I can't come up with 10. I suppose I could just list all of the games that released in that time period that I've played - and I'd only be a few games over my list. I thought about cheating and listing NES/SNES games that released on the NES/SNES mini since I've probably played those more than any other games that have released in that time period.

Here is what I could come up with:

Octopath Traveler
Dragon Quest XI
Minecraft Dungeons
Disgaea 4
Disgaea 5
Disgaea 1 Complete
Animal Crossing

Time off is definitely a benefit that isn't taken into account by many who change jobs.

I make good money right now, but I'm in a business that doesn't allow for much time off. I've asked them to stop giving me raises and just give me more time off, but they won't do it.

I can vouch for the university / school schedule. When you teach they pay seems low because you are really only working 9 of the 12 months in a year. You can stretch your paycheck over the whole year or just not get paid in the summer. In the past, the benefits were really good as well (they aren't anymore). In addition, you usually get a boat load of sick days during the school year. As far as time off goes, you can't beat teaching as a career option.

It's fun but as the others said it's way too long and feels longer since the pacing is poor.

And I love Dragon Quest. Some may say 11 is the best of the franchise but I'd argue 8,9,5 and even the archaic DQ3 are all way better games.

Yep. DQ3 is still the best in the series, IMO. 9 is the next best.

Wasn't impressed at all. The some of the first season was ok. By the second season, I was skipping large sections of the show because I didn't care about any of the characters. I thought having Boba in the show was super lame.

I tried giving Star Wars another chance, but it sucks. There are only three Star Wars movies, and I'm ok with that.

Our baby is 9 months and it's been a mixed blessing to be sure. Not sure my wife and I could face having another, but we know it might be a bit easier in the longer term. As an aside, how have new parents had their hobbies affected. I had hoped to still have some time (few hrs a week) but so far I havent touched my ps4 for a gamevin 9 months

It's gone for a few years, unfortunately. Before I had my kids, I worked a day job that was tolerable so I could have a side-hustle that was enjoyable. As soon as I had kids, I had no time for the side-hustle so I got a new, more interesting job. I've really become a work-o-holic now, but I found there wasn't time with the kiddos - only when you are away from them. All your at-home time is their time now.

On the bright side, my oldest kid is now really into minecraft dungeons and kirby all star allies - so it gets more enjoyable.
