Wouldn't this result suggest Bloodborne winning next round anyways, even pre-rally? I can't imagine DOOM is stronger than FE:A but maybe I'm underestimating DOOM.

Oh woops. Putting Advokaiser in my sig like this until I think of something more clever

Well, RE2 had like 58-59% and Bloodborne had 54-55% so there was room for Awakening to be stronger and RE2 still win. I think it would be close.

Meanwhile I'm getting sad that I'm reaching the end of FF7R. I don't want this to be over yet! Definitely will replay a bunch of times.

Final Fantasy VII Remake Chapter 1 complete!

That opening cutscene was so good! Also, that quick flashback to Nibelheim got me so hyped to see the real thing in episode 2...or 3...or who knows, but either way, it's gonna be great!

Battle system is fun, but I'm always bad at defense with this style. Never died though! The Scorpion Sentinel fight was pretty cool. Loving all the banter between Cloud and the rest of Avalanche, too!

Interesting twist to show Shinra blowing up Reactor 1 themselves. I guess it's technically a change, but it does fit with what they would do, so it's no big deal. In the original, Jessie does mention that the explosion was more powerful than she expected, so they could take that and run with it here. It works for me.

I wasn't sure if I liked Tien or not up to this point, but after that episode, I think I do.

And now back to FFVIIR

Whew, she finally got past it.

Anyway, Final Fantasy VII Remake Chapter 2 complete!

Trying to navigate through Sector 8 was honestly kind of confusing because which path was the right one wasn't clear and it was easy to get turned around. Also, the riot soldiers are super annoying.

Aerith's intro scene was pretty cool, although these ghost things are silly. It's nice to have the snarky, playful Aerith back!

That scene on the train between Barret and the Shinra employees was super awkward (THAT IS THE SHINRA CREED), but I dug the North Corel remix! I do like how the ambient dialogue really drives home how big of a deal the Mako reactor explosion was in a way that the original couldn't really capture.

Demyx II, I assume? Still love that moment when Demyx drops the act and goes super serious. "Silence, traitor."

My "favorite" "Ulti" rally "take" was that time he said Squall was the beneficiary of a rally in Squall/Luigi 2003.

Literally only trying to troll me because he knows I hate rallies

As if you could successfully rally Squall over Luigi on most other sites. This is why the glory days of GameFAQs were so glorious.

I don't really care about rallies that can only swing a percent or two.

Data still basically checks out.

Oh, it's statistically negligible, but it still made the match worse by widening the narrow gap!

I dunno. I lost most of my interest once this became rally wars, but it would be nice to get points, at least.

Oh actually I have a question for you since I saw in another topic that you mentioned that you were teaching this semester and I'm gonna have to do so this summer. How are you doing online lectures without a board? It seems like making slides would be both worse and too much work, and I don't want to spend money on a tablet when I'm getting paid so little in the first place.

Yeah, I don't have a tablet either. I've been making .pdf slide shows and periodically typing/drawing on them while I'm lecturing - Adobe's commenting functionality is a bit clunky but it gets the job done.

Not entirely sure I'd recommend this depending on what subject you're teaching - it's been fine for me since I'm doing a lot of graph theory stuff so having pictures already done and being able to draw on them is handy but I could see it being annoying if you have to do a lot of computations.

It'll be in physics, though I don't know what class yet. Hopefully non-major E&M since I've taught that several times before and have my old notes! Afaik it will definitely either be some lower div class or quantum 1 based on what's offered over the summer.

I guess I could directly put up those notes, though they're pretty messy and I don't know how well that would work.
