bunk

Honestly, I feel like you could skip half the episodes of this show and not miss a thing.

That’s pretty much it. I’ve read as far as chapter 47, and it’s very unremarkable. There were times where they lingered on the main character’s sex life, and they didn’t really pull that off either; it seemed pretty pointless.
All that being said, I might still give the anime a chance because the early bits of the manga were interesting enough.

It’s an annoyance, but “borderline unplayable” is wildly hyperbolic.

The patch triggered a new dialogue for me… and then it’s right back to the charnel house. Still can’t dismiss her.

205.2a: The card types are artifact, battle, conspiracy, creature, dungeon, enchantment, instant, land, phenomenon, plane, planeswalker, scheme, sorcery, tribal, and vanguard. See section 3, “Card Types.”

I’m in act three right now, and the most noticeable issue I’ve run into has been characters mistakenly referring to choices I supposedly made. Really takes you out of it when that is such a focus of the game.

I also have Minthara in my party, and I can confirm that she’s broken as hell. You give up quite a lot to recruit her, and it’s not worth it at all. Don’t do it.

If the hammer dropping doesn’t cause the platform to drop, have you tried the lever at the bottom? That one drops the platform, so you could try using it first, and then going through the forging process as usual.
If it’s any consolation, it doesn’t take that long for you to get comparable gear elsewhere.

Fixed the dialogue flow when dating Minthara.

Regarding this one, boy am I curious if I’m just irrevocably screwed, having progressed to act 3 before this fix was implemented. I mean, have I now missed content in this line that I’ll no longer be able to access?

Seems like it would be more productive to play with people who like the kinds of games you do, instead of crying about it like a three year old.
Really, I just agree with the person you replied to. If the people in the pod are looking for vastly different experiences, who’s benefiting?

Rather than looking for some kind of all-in-one solution, that is sure to compromise on features, why not just download the novels you want, and then use any reader you want?

I agree that Rudy’s flaws are central to the story, and that’s why I wrote “if you can accept it” rather than “if you can tolerate it.”
My main point was that the emphasis on sex, how it’s presented, and the extent to which this is interwoven with Rudy’s personality, will obviously be a turnoff to some.

Rudeus is a really, really flawed character, and it definitely means that the anime and LN won’t be for everyone, but if you can accept it, there’s a lot there to enjoy. I agree that it makes it difficult to recommend to people.
I’ve read up through volume 19 of the LN, and though I love the series, I’d absolutely prefer if Rudy’s libido were slightly less of a focal point.

DRM ensures that the paying customer gets the worse end of the deal, regardless of whether it affects performance.

I had completely missed that the card even released, and beyond that, forgotten its existence entirely. I’ve just gotten so used to ridiculously overpriced cards at this point that it’s difficult to care.

This is very exciting! The NSMB games never gelled with me, but this looks like it could be a very fun take. I really hope they’re not going to overdo the voice blurbs though, because just from the trailer, I already want the ability to toggle those off.
