Happy weekend everyone! Have any plans?

 No.1196078

Well not for the weekend itself.

But on Sunday I am going to see a friend in Sweden, and then Monday we're both going to Göteborg for a couple days on a trip. Will include a trip to the Liseberg amusent park.

It's essentially her birthday present for both of us, and the closest thing I have had to an out of country vacation in like 12 years.

I do feel awful about not being able to pay half of it, but she insists it's fine, and I am trying to reteach myself to allow people to do nice things for me without just feeling ashamed.

Either way it's bound to be a good time.

Since my daughter decided to leave her switch home for the week, I can finally start a new, hopefully full play-through of Final Fantasy IX.
And I get back in touch with how amazingly well the story and the characters are...(SO3, for how liked it is, is really cringey at plenty of parts)

If I was without the Switch, I could have considered getting star Ocean 2. Apparently the most well liked game in the Star Ocean franchise and to some considered the best RPG to come out around the tame it came out. (1998)

On a related note, I'm playing FF7 with the "New Threat 2.0" mod installed.  Kinda remixes a bunch of the game, so it's both familiar and new.  Highly recommend.

I know I could look it up, but humour me
What's New Threat 2.0?

It's a lot, really.  Fixes the PC controls and some weird graphical glitches it has, redoes some scenes a bit, changes up a lot of the bosses, makes the characters more unique by changing their weapons more dramatically, but also makes them more customizable with a sorta class system that adds stats.  Materia's also changed so it affects stats more and that's all changed.  Bosses are moved around and altered.  There's probably more yet as I go, but I've only just finished Disc 1.

I'm assuming it also fixes some translation issues?

Yeah, it alters the text here and there.  I don't remember the original text enough to say whether it's really an improvement or not, but it feels good in an absolute sense.

How far in are you? Or do you know the whole game already?

I've just finished Disk 1.  I don't know the changes for the second two disks yet.

Just a thing when it comes to translation that I want to recount.
Just outside Midgar you need a chocobo to get past the massive snake, the Midgar Zolom. I always wondered what a zolom is, figured it was just some made up monster name.

Only like 20 years later in FF15 I saw a friend fighting that same enemy, the huge world-snake Midgardsormr. I was so pissed, Midgar Zolom was a mistranslation the whole time! XD

The 90s has so many mistranslations.  I do think that's something the mod fixed, actually, but somehow it still feels like it was off.  I can't recall exactly what the name was now.

>>1196173
I wouldn't be surprised if they kept Zolom for that instance, since it's practically a thing now.
