I mean, you do take glass cannon, but only after you have explosion immunity :P

Though yeah, game could seriously stand to extend the lifetime of gold, or just flat out not despawn it. Better, instead of just disappearing, have it fall apart into gold dust you can pick up or interact with. Lake of molten gold ftw.

Hopefully there'll be an option or mod or something at some point in the future.

The company nicknamed "Scamazon" has a good reputation? They're also the poster boy for California companies who are abusing workers and lying to customers. Newegg moving to be more like them is the problem.
Their reputation's good enough they shit on basically every other online seller in terms of scale, many of them combined. They're apparently doing pretty alright on the trust front. Never really ordered much from them, but what has been's never had problems, either. Business practices are pretty shit in some ways but that's most online retail so *shrugs*

That's literally the first time I've seen that nickname, incidentally.

Oh hey tmj. One trick that actually seems to sorta' help with that pain. A few times a day, jut out your jaw so your lower teeth are a bit past your upper ones, and hold that for about ten seconds. If you can't keep yourself from clenching your teeth, it can help alleviate some of the stress it's putting on your jaw.

More or less. Trying to make in roads with one of the largest (and growing) markets on the planet can effect your decision making.

Like... we need those, I think. International roast nation X weeks. Fifty two nations, I guess ordered by median per capita gdp or something? It could work.

There's a limit (sorta) in GH2. GH1 the only real limit was if you could survive piloting it. If you had the skills and wanted a mech with fifty heads, you could have a mech with fifty heads.

They had adven parties prior to this latest beta, at the absolute least, and I've noticed nothing about (intentionally) removing them. It's been a damn long time since they were particularly likely to kill you on the first turn of an encounter, though. They're positively tame these days, heh.

They never really factored into doing the lair, though. They've pretty much never actually been particularly hard to avoid if you're careful, even in the confines around that dungeon. The adven parties don't chase you, they just meander around randomly. You avoid the sandworm lair so you don't  have to deal with navigating the sandworm lair :P

i mean, realistically you suck it up and do it anyway 'cause the heart and bile are stupid good, but still

You still got at least 9 episodes to deny the existence of, there. Three won't cut it :P

It would be if you didn't really want to be discussing your preferred sort of incest literature at what's probably the front desk of a public library, heh.

If it's something that would bother you, pray they have a form you could fill out. Alternatively ask for the english version of whatever that would be in whichever specific gibberlanguage it spawned from.

Realistically unless they're pretty new or the area is beyond conservative, they're probably not going to particularly care. Chances are good there's already incest smut on their shelves by way of romance fiction or classic literature or somethin', so what's something recent if you're giving them a dollar or whatever to cover shipping and they don't have to care about actually having it on the shelves?

E: Just... just remember to return it in good shape. Those will be forgotten. The incest smut you make the library go through the effort of replacing will be remembered for generations and used as an example to teach the young of the issues involved in ILLs. The thousand fifty shades of grey will draw no mention, but the porn rag you make us pay for will never leave memory.

Honestly, for english stuff amazon seems to be one of, if not the best, place to find official releases. Better options largely involve going direct to source (or scoping publisher catalogs, I guess), which can be tricky if you don't know the applicable native language. The dead tree market for this stuff exists, but it's kinda' shit in english.

You might also try rolling the dice on interlibrary loans. Depending on what's available to your local, there's no telling what they have access to. It's not super huge on the author support front, but it can manage deadtree. I swear we won't judge your taste in books much in public

Actually, there was something that looked like a a cross between metal slug and super robot wars, but I can't remember the name. It looked to be mostly dashing around in a not-gundam and spamming lasers, with occasional segments pulling you out of the mech and putting a gun in your hand. I'll probably try it at some point when I eventually remember what it's called. I prefer 'real-robot' over 'super-robot', so I'd rather have something like mechwarrior but without having to muck about with a cooling system.
... the old SNES Metal Warriors?  Could have been Front Mission: Gun Hazard, too.

I don't recall arcane ever being unusually hostile towards antimagic characters, actually. Only hostility states I can recall for western map (non-adven party) roamers were zigur towards arcane folks and everything towards undead. Arcane normally non-hostile groups didn't give a damn if you were ziguranthi or not.

Could just be misremembering, though. Never did much zigur play.

Not being able to make use of google-fu beyond the site: command and "text between quotations is searched wholly together" functions, how would I search for that?
Probably use the latter, but limit results by date, if I had to guess. You can leave one side empty to get everything up to or beyond the date input.

Even better when they let you spin up another yarn of puns.
