Oh man, I remember watching that for the first time. It was nighttime and there was a thunderstorm. The exact moment that a character's fingernails were ripped out there was a massive thunderclap and my power went out. I've never before or since screamed in horror.

Very informative. I wonder why Nintendo went with such a poor-performing display. Maybe to get users onboard with the inevitable refresh model?
Life, uh, finds a way.
What sort of third places exist in other countries? I've always wondered. I'm in the US and we have a lot of parks, most of which have benches where plenty of folks go to eat lunch or gather, but that's only feasible when the weather is nice. It would be amazing to have a third place with heat or AC where you can hang out. The library works in some cases but obviously you can't eat there and you have to be quiet.
Having played other MMOs does not make you qualified to have an opinion on a game you've never played. FFXI does have a grind, but it is unlike any other MMO out there. The intensity of trying to time your weapon skills and magic to land at exactly the right time, the dance-like coordination with your teammates, the variety of enemy strengths and weaknesses, learning a basic programming language to write macros and having them work flawlessly in a pinch - everything about it is exciting and you have to be at the top of your game to succeed. Every single mob fight feels like a boss battle and every kill is a win. Top that with some of the best writing of any Final Fantasy game and it's a winning combination and technical marval that I cannot believe was achieved in 2003.
You may as well be saying that Dark Souls is nothing but a grind, but you're missing that the grind is the fun part.
You clearly have not played FFXI.
Hop on HorizonXI! It's a very populated classic server.
I snagged Steins;Gate for $3. I've never played a visual novel before and I'm not sure if I'll like it, but I'll give it a shot.
Final Fantasy XI. It's been online for over 20 years and still has a devoted player base. The game's scale is so epic that many people still haven't beaten the expansions.
When it came out it was so far beyond what we had seen in an MMO before - The only competitors were UO and Everquest, but the graphics, music, complexity, and storyline were miles beyond those games.
It's a game with unimaginable depth of play that takes years to master - not like the hand-holdy easy games we get nowadays. Truly a gem the likes of which we will never see again.
Seems like things are functional now. I imagine the servers got hit hard during the start of the sale.
Pretty sure this is the exact pair shown: https://misterfreedom.com/products/scuba-trunks-olive-cotton-sateen
Sounds like you're doing everything you should do just by being there for him and lending an ear. You cannot be responsible for dragging the man to happiness and supporting him on your own - We each have a responsibility to do that ourselves. I think the bigger question is whether you can be happy with your boyfriend if this is just who he is. There's no right or wrong answer to that.
