Echophonic posted:The event mission is raiding Shinra HQ, with Tifa and Sephiroth unlockable at the higher levels. No idea how hard that's going to be, but we'll find out I guess. I just hit Floors 51-55 and the Stamina cost/stage jumped to 10 per. Combined with actually noticing the hits I'm taking, I'm not sure my 20ish team will be able to get to Sephiroth.

I cleared the boss after her, but I couldn't Master it to get the growth eggs I needed to get Tifa up to speed. Guess it's time for some Gil Grasslands to get my equipment ranked up.

Today I learned that the iCade Mobile and other iCades don't work well with RetroArch, because they're keyboard emulators with nonstandard keyboard handling. What's the current cheap Bluetooth gamepad choice for a Nexus 7? The Red Samurai looks like it'd hit all buttons (dirt cheap, surprisingly decent reviews) if GameStop didn't appear to be allergic to carrying it in any of the dozen GameStops within a short drive.

Schubalts posted:Age of Ishtaria is a pretty good card collecting game, that gives you a ton of free funbucks just for playing the game regularly. I played AoI for a while, but I finally got tired of the constant feeling of needing to play it all the time to keep up. Like, it's true that you can keep a pretty steady flow of free in game currency by doing the weekly events, but if you don't hammer on them pretty constantly, you'll fall behind and end up with just a paltry little reward. Plus, at least when I quit a few months ago, a good portion of the events skirted the pay-to-win line pretty closely. If you wanted to be on top of the arena events, you had to be pretty much perma-chugging stamina potions. Similarly with the PvE events you had to be grinding out stages all the time or you weren't going to end up at the top of the pile. And the best rewards were always like 'top 50 players' or whatever, which never seems sensible when the player base is a variable number of people. Something percentage based would probably work better. And the biggest problem with it was that the devs apparently don't understand how notifications work. Even if I turned them off, they stayed on. Even if I turned them off through the phone apps menu, they stayed on. And they didn't use the normal notification that every other app uses. They used something that causes a message to pop up in the middle of the screen which you have to click 'OK' on to get rid of. And which will otherwise keep your phone awake. I woke up one morning to find my phone was nearly dead even though it was plugged in, because it wanted to tell me in the middle of the night that some stupid gold card pack special was ending soon. I got some fun times out of it for a while, though, and if you do have the itch to throw gold tickets into the card machine and keep hoping this time you'll hit the jackpot, it's definitely a good game for that. But, at least for me, it really wore out its welcome after a while.

Is there a game where it combines the sperglord collect-a-thon part of PAD/Brave Frontier etc. with the puzzle mechanics of Bejeweled/Puzzle Quest that isn't terrible like the Marvel Puzzle Quest?

For that price it's a decent lightweight version of "Rich Port" that inspired "Galaxia: la conquista" I think what people are asking for is what this really means. Here you go: A clergyman named John, known for his good deeds and his performance of three miracles, and who is also a board game, is on sale for one dollar, which is a unit of currency in the United State of America. For that price, it's a not-great-but-not-bad interpretation, that won't weigh you down, of "A wealthy place for ships to dock" that was a precursor and contributing factor in the making of "A big place with stars and planets that has been subjected to rule by way of military force, by one entity, though multiple entities were attempting it".

Locke Dunnegan posted:I'm not quite getting the love for FFRK. I played probably fifteen or so dungeons, and it is a copy-pasted Brave Frontier kind of game with Final Fantasy skins stapled on. It employs all the usual mechanics of awkward menus, stamina systems, and other poo poo that I figured most people are tired of at this point that other than that shiny veneer I don't see how anyone would want to play it after a few hours. The actual battles in the game are awkward as hell too. Why can't I set spells to Auto? For that matter, why the hell can I only use a certain spell twice in a whole dungeon (or more if I grind to upgrade it!) when some dungeons have maybe seven fights but others have ten or more? Why isn't it per skirmish? I ended up just using all physical attackers and hitting Auto, because even the physical 'spells' seemed to MAYBE increase damage by like 10% tops at the base level, so they didn't hook me enough to want to even grind to upgrade them. Then I realized I was playing a game that was playing itself for minor incremental gains and that that was stupid, so I uninstalled it.

Yeah, not being a big FF guy, I'm really not feeling this game. I think it'd be fine if there weren't like a million layers of menus for everything.

It's literally only for fans of FF, there are better versions of this game on both app stores. I have too many posts in the FF megathread and FFRK is only ok. There's too many great Android games for me to give a poo poo for long, but it's a decent smoke break game.

If turn-based two-player puzzle games aren't too narrow a genre then I love the poo poo out of Matching with Friends and Tic Tactics. I play those two more than anything else. I suppose you can add whatever Scrabble clone is the best cos people love that.
