  • I loved a lot of ps1 era rpgs

    One that always stuck with me was Legend of Legaia

    Never met anyone who played it and the sequel on ps2 was terrible.

    Some unique things I never saw in a turn based rpg again:

    1. Armor you could buy and equip per slot and you were able to mix and match… This meant you could look really stupid when farming money for different sets but it was exciting to get a new item and equip it and see

    2. This was a turn based rpg but had some inspiration from arcade fighter games of the time… You would enter your attacks like up down left right x y z and then say ready and your character would do a combo… You could randomly enter combos and learn new specials and finishes etc… Also a lot of ways to learn them through exploration and such

    Not unique the game has a ton of fun side quests, games and secrets as well…


  • Yeah I started suspecting something like find could be impacting younger generations fertility rates as well but most the people I have known had issues on the woman’s end… Like endomitriosis causing blockages etc. I haven’t spent a lot of time researching it myself but I wouldn’t be surprised that not only are we economically disadvantaged but the rampant pollution is also driving lower birth rates for those who even try


  • I agree with most the points others in this thread make about the economy having gotten worse such that it discourages more kids… I have a decent job and if I had a second child I think I would never have a chance at retirement.

    I am also curious about rising infertility… My wife and I had go through ivf to even have one child… This after 7 years of trying…

    Several of our peers and friends have struggled with this as well… It could just be a coincidence but we only know around 20 other couples outside of work and at least 6 of them have not been able to produce children naturally.



  • I’ll chime in that a degree in accounting or finance can get you far… Most here will mention engineering/medical/programming. They also will likely bemoan the finance and accounting folks they work with as useless.

    I’ll agree that due to many burrecratic choices c-suite leadership make there are a ton of inefficiencies but there is always a ton of work to be done and the skills can transfer to quite a bit of companies… Even very large corporations just end up having horribly inefficient processes and constant churn in leadership switches it up a lot… So if your someone who knows accounting and finance well and can think learn to bridge the never ending gap in tools and people requesting data you can do well.
