Neil HD Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 So I bought "Go Go Nippon!" during the anime Steam sale...Yeah, I also wonder what I'm even doing with my life Basically, you're a foreigner around age 20 who's staying over in Japan for a week, and you're crashing with Makoto and Akira, two online friends who happen to be brothers near your age . When you're finally greeted at the airport, it turns out that they're two cute sisters instead. Keep in mind that the setup for this game sounds ridiculous, a week to build a budding romance with Makoto or Akira seems way too short, it's got some run-of-the-mill rom-com anime tropes (a few of which are NSFW) and the protagonist makes me cringe every 10-15 minutes with his weaboo dialogue. However, this game was way more informative about Japan that I was expecting. For every location, there are lots of interesting facts and stories about the culture and day-to-day life, plenty of which I'll find useful when I finally take a vacation to Japan. Also, you can direct the story by choosing where you want to explore in Japan at the start of each day, as each girl will be your tour guide for specific locations. Decisions about what to do at each location will also affect your relationship with whichever girl you're with at the time. Finally, the story is pretty interesting thanks to Makoto and Akira being endearing characters with relatable struggles. I've only played through the game once with full focus on Akira so far, but I expect good things with a full Makoto focus and everything in-between. Granted, this is my first time buying a dating sim, but it's a great purchase, although buying at a mild discount is recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckinEdm Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 So I'm upgrading my computer (new CPU, MOBO,ram) I've decided on the Ryzen 5 1600 my question is would you get product replacement for 2 years on the CPU and ram? my current CPU and ram which is a gen 1 I5 lasted this long so I'm thinking its not really worth it.

Product replacement on anything chip (solid state) based is often a waste of money. Be careful installing the CPU and RAM on your motherboard and keep your components cool with proper cooling and air circulation and they'll last a long time. If you get a lemon, you'll know fairly quickly and it will still be covered under the store and/or manufacturer warranty that comes with the component. If you're going to build a full system from scratch then there are certain things like an expensive 4k monitor that it isn't a bad idea to get a little extra coverage past the manufacturers warranty.

I wont be needing a 4k monitor anytime soon (unless my current one dies) my video card is only a GTX970 (and hopefully got life left) so its more of a 1080 setup. and all the other components ive been upgrading as things go ie. video card, SSD, power source, peripherals.

The 970 is a good card for 1080p gaming. It should give you at least a couple more years of usefulness as long as you have at least 4gb of memory on it which was standard with those.

SabreFan1 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Just now, CanuckinEdm said: you mean 3.5 and .5 of lies Yeah, skimping with inferior memory with the last chip was ridiculous. Did you end up with one of the manufacturers who did that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately EVGA was one. Still a very good card though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbox Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 (edited) I got Forza Horizon 3 and the Hot Wheels pack off the Microsoft Store. That game looks lit. I wanted a new game and I wanted to avoid steam since buying a game there full price is just asking to get burned lol.

The monthly bundles are usually great! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome, thanks for the tips! I'll keep an eye on both of them. There's a few games I'm still eyeing, mainly Dark Souls 3 and Fallout 4.

Scottish⑦Canuck Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Just bought my first gaming PC. Didn't pay much for it as I don't have the money for a good one right now, but it has an NVIDIA GTX 750Ti and a Core i5 processor so it should be able to run most stuff. As long as it runs Rust / Arma etc. I don't really care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
