| Topic | Who is the more iconic character: Sephiroth or Kratos? |
| SpiritSephiroth 03/17/21 7:18:22 PM #38 | Chewtarch posted... I honestly think Sephiroths biggest point comes from smash. How old are you? Not insulting you just a genuine question. If you're a younger gamer then you probably weren't in the industry when there was a boom with the ps1 with FF7 literally everywhere and dominating even generations afterwards. If you're an older gamer, then maybe I dunno, you probably missed the hype I think. --- |
| Topic | Who is the more iconic character: Sephiroth or Kratos? |
| SpiritSephiroth 03/17/21 6:17:18 PM #20 | FF7 literally defined a genre back in the day and is one of playstations legendary games. Pile that on with the recent remake, his cameos in various games including smash and kingdom hearts, then of course a lot of people know him. --- |

| SpiritSephiroth 03/15/21 8:28:45 PM #47 | And I think some characters do fit the power fantasy trope and can still have a hard time. Just look at Raiden, he gets his ass beat by Sam and Armstrong but the other 90% of the game hes cutting buildings in half, picking up metal gears the size of sky scrapers and throwing them hundreds of metres in the air, and rides missiles like they're nothing. --- |

You really think they intended for the ghosts to represent the fans? You think they would think that far ahead, and try to be that poetic? One word, Shadowbringers. --- |

| SpiritSephiroth 03/08/21 11:17:59 PM #14 | Hop103 posted... There was less fear and more freedom to express yourself in those days, sure you'd still get screwed over if you were a blatant racist, sexist, or a jerk (Anyone remember Imus?), but for the average person, things were great. Yeah, bad people can usually be spotted. But I think to an extent people have accepted the zero tolerance idea of there being a fine line, and if you cross it just slightly, you'll get shot (metaphorically). The grey area has been eliminated mostly. And us humans need that grey area. We are people with complex ideas. --- |

I miss when you could actually find interesting websites on search engines with weird, horrific stories and random conspiracy theories and even those are now mostly their own consolidated sanitized form of social media. Damn I know what you mean. It was like finding secret treasures. I remember a handful of websites that had a certain mystique around them! I still remember one called animetheme. Its was so cool when I was younger. --- |
| Topic | I miss the days before social media. Everything feels so tiresome now. |
| SpiritSephiroth 03/08/21 11:08:24 PM #1 | Anyone else feel this way? Everyday I feel more nostalgic for the time when not everything was so tightly connected like this. Every aspect of our lives weren't based around the internet or social media. Things were more open and in a way, the internet has ironically made people more closed off to each other, when you'd think it would be the opposite. I know people can say, 'well just turn off the internet or your phone' but it's not just about me. It's the whole of society that's connected to this thing that, I dont know how to put it, keeps us from really seeing the world? I dunno. Maybe I'm just rambling and thinking like I usually do when I'm in bed late at night. Edit: Maybe the lockdown in London and me losing my job a while ago has attributed to this. Also the fact that I was supposed to get my Visa to Japan last year when Covid ruined those plans. --- |
| Topic | Have you ever trolled in a video game? |
| SpiritSephiroth 03/08/21 8:05:32 AM #34 | solosnake posted... In MGO I would choke out my teammates sometimes and take all their equipment then drag them out to the open for the enemy to get an easy headshot while they were still knocked out lol Haha I loved MGO 2. I used to play team sneaking in urban ultimatum a lot. On the sneaking team, we used to climb onto the red building at the beginning of a round. I'd then quickly stab a team mate coming up the ladder, which takes half their life, then grab a hold of them, drag them to the edge and throw them off the building which finishes them off. The kicker is, the game would register that as a suicide instead of a team kill and it would show up as such. Then the person would most likely try to get me vote kicked after dying in which I would reply in chat with "?". --- |

Someone on his level that took him down a notch and showed him theres more to just being on top. We don't have anyone like that. --- |
| Topic | Could you date a Saiyan? |
| SpiritSephiroth 03/06/21 10:42:53 PM #12 | Although putting a Saiyan like that with all those personality traits and no redeeming qualities on our modern day Earth would be destructive. If the Earth in DragonBall couldn't handle a couple of saiyans, our Earth wouldn't last a day if she decided to go rouge. --- |
| Topic | Could you date a Saiyan? |
| SpiritSephiroth 03/06/21 9:56:01 PM #9 | Sure. Also have her train me and learn how to control Ki. Although I wouldnt get to her level because of her Zenkai boosts as a saiyan I would still be a good sparring partner. --- |

Some of them are: Shielded Settlers Place everywhere Homemaker - Expanded Settlements Scrap Everything Sim Settlements War of the Commonwealth Start me up, alternative start Unlimited Companion Framework Create Followers Construct a companion - Build a personal bodyguard Increased Settler population Settlement supplies expanded This is just touching the surface of how many mods I have.

She's making the average persons yearly paycheck a month just on that website alone. That's a lot of money yeah. But before her sex stuff I used to see her trending almost all the time. Ever since then I havent seen anything about her, maybe just once and that was barely a day. --- |

| Topic | Disappointed in Belle Delphine |
| SpiritSephiroth 03/03/21 11:03:54 PM #11 | She kinda faded from popularity the second she decided to do sex stuff. I think the allure for a lot of people was that she was manipulating the game. But the second she went all in that allure was gone. --- |
