Games that could really do with a remaster
Daggerfall: Unplayable to all but the most dedicated with its antiquated controls and confusing interface
Xenogears: Shipped literally incomplete, never was completed, still regarded as one of the best games of all time regardless
Final Fantasy VII: Graphics quality doesn't do it justice, translation was a trainwreck and the story is near-impossible to follow
Final Fantasy VIII: Translation was a fender bender; definitely needs a retranslation that actually portrays Squall's character properly. Graphics hold up pretty well though.
Wild ARMS 2: Again, translation was a mess. Better than FFVII but Liz's speech is completely unintelligible and some of the story is hard to follow.
Pokemon gold/silver/crystal: Classics of the series, but many items didn't work properly and it could do with being put onto more modern systems
The Legend of Zelda: Translation made cryptic hints into unintelligible nonsense, and it would be an amazing game to see with a more vivid world than the NES could give it
politicsish?
Something I've noticed about a lot of people, especially but not exclusively the more bigoted sort: they seem unwilling to even consider the fact that people who aren't on the same side as them are acting in good faith.
Most people, no matter what ideology they have, do what they do because they think it's the right thing to do. They may be wrong, but the majority of people aren't evil.
Most ideologies have an element in them of wanting to get other people on your side, wanting to get others to share your ideology. This isn't inherently a bad thing! But it is a dangerous thing, as even the people who are wrong feel the need to convince other people to share their ideology, no matter how wrong it may be.

So I had an interesting concept come to mind earlier:
Say in this universe reincarnation happens on a fixed time cycle, each soul is reincarnated every 120 years on the dot. That's not normally a problem, because the longest-lived people don't tend to live that long. What happens when medicine gets so advanced that the first person lives to be over 120 years old?

The fact that some languages use . for the radix point and , for the thousands separator while other languages use , for the radix point and . for the thousands separator seems needlessly confusing. We should really standardize on one or the other--I don't care which, just make everything less confusing!
dark souls stuff
this ornstein and smough fight would be less intimidating if refighting them didn't mean having to beat two of those giant priests and a silver knight with a bow before getting to them
I can't really run past to get to them because if I don't take those out first Solaire never follows me into the boss room
context: someone boosted un-CW'd lewd stuff onto my home column and I would really like for that Not
silly thought: xenon is a slime fox. dragon quest has slimes. @xenon with a dragon quest slime face would be silly.
