01:26 <ADragonDreaming> this quest is a frustrating one.

10:32 <Cepheid> So apparently in the original Doom, E4M3 has the most secrets to uncover, at 22. But there is a catch. The number is inflated because 19 of the secrets are all part of a stairway in which all the steps are tagged as secrets.

10:56 <ConfusionRift> At least it wasn't an employee flippin' off Romero. Then again, he kinda did that to us. :P
10:56 <Cepheid> Wait what?

11:03 <Cepheid> I am tempted to open my dad's bedroom door quietly to let Tizzy into the room to bug him.
11:03 <Cepheid> She is currently sitting at the door meowing.
11:05 * Sleeping_Nightmares nomfs Cepheid
11:05 *** Sleeping_Nightmares is now known as Filly_Nightmares
11:07 <Cepheid> I'll be honest, I picture you bug-eyed, with half of my head somehow crammed into your mouth when you do that.
11:08 <Cepheid> Not sure if it is his age, or just finally getting to understand me now, but when I sit on the couch, Spitfire flops down next to me instead of always climbing onto my lap now.
11:09 <Cepheid> Also we figured out his age. He is 8 years old. That means Tizzy is 10.
11:11 <Cepheid> I find it increasingly hard to believe he is 8 years old though.
11:13 * ConfusionRift shrugs.
11:15 <Cepheid> Well he seems to feel old enough to think he's the boss of me. *laying in bed, cat standing atop him now.*
11:17 <ConfusionRift> Yep, that's a cat alright. :P
11:20 * ConfusionRift checks the market for AC Amiibo cards. "Yep, sounds about right. All is not for sale and dis-" Sees one 6 card pack for $70. "Yeah, that's definitely not happening." Sees the rating for the card. Rated: Adult. "EeeeexcuSE ME?!"

11:32 <Cepheid> Heh. I was gonna say.
11:33 <ConfusionRift> Magnets do nothing. Must... REMOVE... PERMANENTLY!
11:33 <Cepheid> Deleting data on a platter drive doesn't erase it completely. Even if the OS replaces it with zeroes.
11:34 <ConfusionRift> The "shredder" seems to work well for that. At least, makes it very difficult to recover in any conventional way.
11:35 <Cepheid> More or less. Magnets and secure formatting work too.
11:35 *** Quits: Golden (uid250033@Pony-sd90bk.tooting.irccloud.com) (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity)
11:36 <Cepheid> In theory, it should also suffice to erase the data, and then the data in the adjacent tracks next to where the file was, too.
11:36 <ConfusionRift> You can have Windows perform multiple format passes, and reformat the HDD.
11:38 <RazorSharpFang> Magnets
11:38 <Cepheid> Mmhmm. Secure erase can also be done under UNIX-likes.
11:39 <Cepheid> Not sure about windows.
11:40 <ConfusionRift> Oh right... (looks at the shreds of metal) About the magnets...
11:41 * Cepheid grabs 3DS. Starts charging it. While he does so he notices something odd.
11:42 <Cepheid> Hmm? How long has that been going on for? Looks like the gold-colour paint has been flaking off of the bottom plate.
11:42 <ConfusionRift> Which 3DS?
11:43 <Cepheid> New 3DS XL. Legend of Zelda model.
11:43 <ConfusionRift> Yeah, i don't think they have been going for that long hmmm. Wait a sec.
11:44 <Cepheid> It's due to the oil on my skin. Where the paint is flaking off is exactly where my fingers and palm rest.
11:44 <ConfusionRift> Yeah, that's part of normal wear with these coated products.
11:44 <ConfusionRift> That 3DS model has 8 years.
11:45 <Cepheid> The oil on my skin is particularly corrosive I find.
11:45 <Cepheid> Causes extensive bubbling in veneer on particle board products. It eats away at the faux leather of headphone earpieces, and it can discolour cloth materials.
11:46 <ConfusionRift> Trust me, it's normal. I tend to have very sweaty hands, and have had those issues.
11:46 <ConfusionRift> Especially with controllers, since they tend to kinda absorb the sweat through nooks and such.
11:49 <Cepheid> So I'm debating between finishing EO3, which I just need to kill the final boss, now, and starting EO2, EON, or finishing EO1. The problem with 3 is that unlike the later games, the EXP is more modest and getting to level 99 is excrutiating.
11:49 <Cepheid> And I'd need to do it multiple times.
11:49 <Cepheid> I am not fighting that eldritch arsehole at anything lower than level 99, based on what I've heard.

11:51 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about 戦乱 その忌むべき名を呼べ (世界樹の迷宮X Ver.)
11:51 <Cepheid> Calling that Detestable Name, Nexus version. Final boss theme of EO3.
11:52 <Lumindia> I like that track
11:52 <Cepheid> Plays during I presume the later forms of the Abyssal God. Initial form uses the standard superboss theme.
11:53 * ConfusionRift knows little of RPGs, so... pffft! Then flops.

11:55 <Cepheid> There is the initial threat. The most immediate threat, which is what most of the game focuses on. Then it follows up with a more existential, long-term threat.
11:56 <Cepheid> Hum, now then, what was I last working on...?
11:58 <Cepheid> Hmm. Looks like I am missing one superboss.
11:58 <Cepheid> Two, actually. Not including the final boss.
12:00 <Cepheid> Two regular enemies with their rare drops unclaimed. One FOE missing an item. There is a missing FOE entry too. Probably the Tentacle.
12:00 <Cepheid> Lot of the sea bosses have missing rare drops.
12:01 <Cepheid> All super bosses are missing their rare drops. The dragons are impossible for the time being until I get Ali back up to speed to cope with the elemental breaths.

12:04 <Cepheid> Alternatively I leave that up to Confusion, who has the antielement skills which reduce elemental damage to the party.
12:11 <Cepheid> 11,890 EXP for one of those FOEs...
12:12 <Cepheid> There are 18 of them in the stratum. They are easy kills for me, so easy EXP.
12:13 <Cepheid> Through rom hacking, I know the total EXP required to hit level 99 is 5,000,000. 18 of the FOEs gets me... 214,020 EXP.
12:14 <Cepheid> That makes... 24 cycles to go from level 1 to 99.
12:16 *** Quits: Crimson_Tail (zeta@batpones.are.for.snuggles) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
12:16 <Cepheid> Given a single cycle takes about 15 minutes to perform, that's about six or seven hours of constant effort.
12:17 <Cepheid> And that's for one character. If i add other characters to the party, the time goes up because the EXP is split between all the charactera.
12:19 <Cepheid> Split between 5 characters, and assuming one of them has the EXP boosting skill, I am looking at... 90 cycles.
12:20 <Cepheid> At 15 minutes per, that's... 22.5 hours.

13:05 <Cepheid> Hmm. If I add the two bosses of the stratum to the murder cycle, they add another 90,000 EXP. And it only takes a couple minutes to murder both of them.
13:20 <Cepheid> 15 hours is actually the worst case scenario. That is, brand new characters, from level 1. That's not the case I have here. Probably closer to a few hours for this party. Plus, as more and more characters hit level 99, I can remove them from the party to speed things up for the rest.

14:15 <Cepheid> The further my hand has to travel, the more likely I'll hit the wrong key. And on top of that I lose out on movement. It doesn't help that I go back and forth between two keyboard styles on a regular basis and my muscle memory tends not to switch quickly enough.

14:31 <Nedemai> Cepheid, if you are talking about WoW, my brother would be all "ADDONS, ALL THE ADDONS"
14:31 <Lumindia> the bar on the right is the bar for my MMO MOuise
14:31 <Cepheid> FF14
14:32 <Nedemai> I suppose that makes more sense
14:32 <Nedemai> I've not liked Final Fantasy since ff9
14:32 <Nedemai> recenty I think I found out why
14:32 <Lumindia> why's that?
14:32 <Nedemai> I cant remember the guys name but he left after ff9
14:33 <Nedemai> then the merger with square enix happened around the same time as well
14:33 <Cepheid> There are also other games I play that could use the extra buttons as well.
14:33 <Schism> Surely not Hiroyuki Ito.
14:33 <Lumindia> the merger with Enix didn't happen until some time after FFX
14:33 <Schism> Ah, you mean Hironobu Sakaguchi.
14:34 <Nedemai> yea that would be him. Looks like he worked on ffX as well.
14:35 <Nedemai> Ill give it another try, but even FFX just felt different
14:35 <Lumindia> I like X's combat system
14:35 <Lumindia> the CTB system is my favorite
14:35 <Nedemai> I got a ps2 for free, the game cheap, and I've got the component cables for like... 720p I think the machine does lol
14:36 <Lumindia> where you can see how your next action will affect turn order
14:36 <Nedemai> but think I've sat down to play it
14:36 <Lumindia> makes things more strategic
14:36 <Nedemai> >.>
14:36 <Lumindia> and you know what you can get away with, like "okay, the boss's turn isn't for another 5 actions, I can afford to smack him before I need to heal for the big aoe

15:11 <Cepheid> Spitfire for the love of- stop sniffing Tizzy's butt.
15:20 <Cepheid> Mouse arrived.
15:23 <Cepheid> Right, this is gonna take some getting used to.
15:23 <Cepheid> It has 3 finger buttons instead of the usual 2.
15:24 <Cepheid> Spitfire, what are you-
15:24 <Cepheid> He's walking off with the shipping packaging.

15:38 <Cepheid> So the third finger button is set basically to a toggle switch.
15:39 <Cepheid> Hold it down, and the rest of the buttons can emit different inputs.
15:40 <Cepheid> You are destructive today, cat.
15:41 <Cepheid> But yeah, by default the side buttons are set to 1 through 0 along the keyboard, then -, then =. If you hold down the third finger button, then the buttons will emit CTRL+#, same setup.
15:41 <Cepheid> So in effect, immediate access to 24 hotbar buttons with my thumb.

16:22 <Cepheid> I swear, when these two leave us for the rainbow bridge, cats will just start showing up at the front door.
16:22 <Lumindia> kek
16:38 <Cepheid> A catgirl, with her black cat pet, riding a fat cat. I can't get any more catty than this.
16:38 <Schism> I forget if you ever got your hands on a Tora-Jiro, Cepheid. Not as good as a black cat, but still cute.
16:39 <Cepheid> Not sure. Let me see.

16:47 <Cepheid> Oh my gods that guy in pink is still there in Gridania.
16:48 <Schism> Best to simply ignore him. XD;
16:49 * Ali puts on bunny suit and dances in front of Cepheid
16:50 <Cepheid> The suit's relatively okay, though does give me nightmares about Silent Hill 3, it's the pink though that terrifies me the most.
16:52 * Ali flops over Schism and Cepheid as she is 14CNJ and out of quests
16:53 <Ali> And I know nothing of the job system
16:53 <Schism> Ali: Have you done the [H]unting log?
16:54 <Ali> On rank 2 of it
16:54 * Schism nodnods. "FATEs then?"
16:54 <Ali> I'm like early 14, its not something that can just be lightly grinded to
16:54 <Schism> Also, job system is... really not what it used to be. All it means is that you get a little crystal you equip at level 30 and then you turn into the job.
16:55 <Schism> There used to be this whole rigmarole about getting a second job to 15, etc. etc. but that was quickly phased out when Yoshi-P (head producer) decided it didn't really fit that well.

16:57 <Ali> So its effectively useless just like professions in WoW
16:57 <Schism> Not really. DoW/DoM jobs are basically just 'advancing to the better class', like in FFI.
16:58 <Schism> So you go from CNJ to WHM.
16:58 <Ali> So even LESS attack spells~
16:58 <Ali> I just need another button to push or something
16:58 <Ali> Cause even though you're a mixed class
16:58 <Schism> Nah, you keep Aero, Stone, you get Holy and more bonuses like Presence of Mind.
16:59 <Ali> Stone is so freaking weak
16:59 <Schism> It gets upgraded as you level.
16:59 <Ali> Still feels weak
16:59 <Schism> Stone II comes at level 18.
16:59 * Cepheid stands next to Ali, dressed in White Mage Gear, at high level. "... Am I chopped liver to you?"
16:59 <Ali> Yes, yes you are :P
16:59 <Schism> Goes from 140 to 200.
17:00 <Ali> Potency tells me nothing
17:00 <Ali> When 140 translates to 20-30 damage
17:00 <Schism> Eh, 40% better damage is something to be had.
17:00 <Schism> Also, you'll be hitting much harder once you get the level 15 gear.
17:00 <Cepheid> Ali, you also need to work on gear and stats for it to improve. :P
17:01 <Ali> You think I just vendor the gear they give you? :P
17:01 <Ali> I've MMO'd a bit before, I know to swap to better gear as you get it
17:01 <Ali> Yes I do think my gear might be a bit under level, but I'm not used to the game either so I don't know the best quests or the best zone to be at right now either
17:02 <Ali> God I am burning up right now and I don't know why
17:03 <Ali> So I guess I ignore the 'professions' huh?
17:03 <Schism> For the moment, craftskills are useful, but they're also a bit expensive.
17:03 <Schism> You might also want to look into right-side gear if you haven't any of that yet.
17:03 <Ali> So gil sinks huh
17:03 <Ali> right side?
17:03 * Ali headtilts
17:03 <Schism> Yeah, those are your jewelry and all that.
17:04 <Ali> jewels and such are not really upgradable
17:04 <Schism> Left-side gear is your armour, but jewelry can be helpful too, though they provide much less stats.
17:04 <Schism> fewer*
17:04 <Ali> Until they give me a +2INT +2 MIND
17:04 <Ali> Cause most of the right side stuff is +1 to six stats
17:04 <Schism> Oh yeah. Fair nuff.
17:05 * Schism grumps, "Wish I could trade with you."
17:05 <Ali> Game is telling me recomended stuff and its telling me to do archer/carpender quests
17:05 <Ali> But...I don't want to change class
17:05 <Ali> And I guess prefession changes class too..
17:05 <Schism> Oh, you can always switch back.
17:06 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Makenshi: Trixie Music: Spikey Wikey - Showtime [Drum & Bass] [ http://tinyurl.com/yckgwqyz ]
17:06 <Schism> But it's reasonable to not want to switch right away. I do suggest some FATEs in East Shroud if you have the opportunity.
17:07 <Ali> I'm 2800/26,400 I don't think a FATE or two is going to fix that.
17:07 <Schism> It will if you have a helper to get you through them faster and get that experience bonus at the end.
17:08 <Schism> There are also those two opening Guildhests.
17:08 <Schism> These are small little trials, intended to get you some training in parties.
17:09 <Schism> They range from level 10 to level 40, and their first-time completion bonus is smol, but helpful nonetheless.
17:10 * Cepheid suddenly bursts into a hot sweat inexplicably. Also starts complaining of extremely warm environs.
17:13 <Schism> Ali: If you'd like I can kinda-sorta carry you through some FATEs easily enough.
17:13 * Ali shrugs, she's not sure what to do, knew healer would be low damage but didn't think this low
17:14 <Schism> Once you hit 15 and get the Brand New Gear, you'll be getting a lot more damage output.
17:16 <Ali> Hopefully
17:47 <Cepheid> Guh, this is annoying. I don't want to do anything. Just lay down, cover up, and read.
17:47 <Cepheid> Been getting like this a few hours into each day. My body just up and says "Nope, I need to lay down" and that's it for the rest of the day.
17:47 <Cepheid> I boil alongside it the entire time.
17:52 <Cepheid> I think it might be my continual usage of the nasal rinse keeping the infection at bay. Damned thing wants to grow inside my sinuses, and I can FEEL it.

19:34 <Nedemai> Cepheid, you'd likely be killed if you could make any headway on that, but the reality is most people would ignore and laugh at you
19:34 <Cepheid> I wasn't serious you know.
19:35 <Nedemai> sounded serious enough
19:37 <Schism> Purest flight of fancy.
19:38 <Cepheid> And yet the idea is incredulous. What would possess you to think I was serious based on that?
19:44 <Nedemai> Well, unfortunately opinions count for not, but I do see the USA as being inept given the numbers
19:44 <Nedemai> its not far fetched to accuse them of causing more harm
19:46 <Schism> Considering some of the dealings of the government over the past few weeks, with regards to seizing shipments of medical supplies, one can safely assume malice.
19:47 <ADragonDreaming> From a citizen level it'd be more successful as a class-action from within the country itself.

20:18 <Cepheid> Yeah. The worst part is that most console ports are based on that Jaguat port, including the low-def levels. More recent(360, PS3 and onward, roughly) releases fortunately fixed that.
