Looks like they put the oversized load on a boat for as long as they could, but have to do the last leg by road.

This looks like a major update to a well-established improvement hack. A retranslation with ability name changes, more detailed maps, and that Bishop softlock bug should be long stomped.

The mixture is my point. Some things are better. Some things are worse. I specified for women because the backlash against woke has already hurt women badly.

If you are a woman, do you think society was in better shape in 2012 or today? Standing Confederate monuments, hostility to trans people, and all?

Undertale is the obvious suggestion, although it’s more deconstructive than Earthbound.

Leave a bad review. I did get halfway back.

Chrono Trigger is around 25 hours for a casual playthrough. Great game with a very fast pace for its genre but it seems way too long for OP.

The US has lots of land that doesn’t require irrigation, but also lots of land that can grow crops if irrigated. Some of that land in California is some of the best farmland in the whole country, growing things that prefer California’s Mediterranean climate (similar to parts of Australia’s southwest coast).

We have the technology and have had it for a while. But we don’t have the laws and habits of dry countries so US water laws are a wasteful mess.

An irrigation canal like this is a big ditch to move water from a river to near farm fields. Without the extra water taken from the river, there wouldn’t be enough water in the soil for crops to grow in the area.

Being a big ditch open to the sky, the hot sun and dry air make a bunch of the irrigation water evaporate before it even gets to the field. So we went to all the effort of taking water out of the river just to waste it humidifying the nearby air.

Why did we do it in the first place? Because it’s way easier and cheaper to dig a ditch than to lay a big pipe, and I don’t know if the US had any other water-delivery tech at the right scale when these were built.

This title is a play on words, meaning “leave Mac owners short change”. That is, not having as many coins as they assumed they had. Usually you are short change because you had a little less money with you than you thought, but with malware involved they mean theft.

It’s difficult. I didn’t understand the headline until reading the summary. “Short-changed” means not getting everything you purchased. It originally meant not getting all your change from paying with a larger bill. For example, if you used a $5 bill to buy $2.20 worth of snacks and got $2.75 back, you were short-changed.

Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars might work. It’s going to be difficult (fear the spear) and you’ll want to use those items, but it is overall easier than Chrono Trigger. And it has a remake coming out soon with some system changes.

Final Fantasy Mystic Quest was intended for your situation, but it’s balanced in all the ways you dislike.

Otherwise, possibly the very easiest remakes of old games like the Final Fantasy 4 Pixel Remaster.

WBridge5 (http://www.wbridge5.com/) is a free award-winning bridge program. It won’t teach you how to play the game, though.

Seems to vary depending on whether I’m attempting to listen to music on my device (“attempting to” is the right word as it takes 15 seconds to load each individual song as it goes through a playlist) or listen to a YouTube video. It can go further into the background if it’s music on my device, no further back than a big window drawn over the screen if it’s a podcastable video, and must be in the foreground for a video IIRC.

It means that the police believe that the family was targeted because of some relationship, instead of a serial killer or armed robbers looking for whoever left the door open or doesn’t keep large dogs. So the police don’t expect the killer(s) to massacre another family in the neighborhood.

That looks like the point. They brought in using health to boost and spinning from F-Zero X, so just surviving to the finish line takes some skill and discipline.

If you have one part of the Masamune, go to Porre and ask around.

If you have two parts of the Masamune, an in-game cutscene told you to visit Melchior, near Medina.

The old guy at the End of Time will often give you a useful hint if you’re lost.

Cash bail is giving the court a lot of money as a pledge that you will show up for your trial. If you show up, you get the money back. The point is that it’s a life-changing amount of money and losing it would be worse than the consequences of being convicted.

Non-cash bail is mostly promising to show up for your court date and not commit any more crimes in the meantime, but there can be restrictions like wearing an ankle monitor and not leaving the state.

Nothing else reaches the same quality as Chrono Trigger in the same way. You have to settle for lower quality with similar pacing, or try to reach the same level of quality in a different way.

Similar pacing, lower quality: Phantasy Star IV, Super Mario RPG, Final Fantasy IV
Comparable quality, different style: Earthbound, Final Fantasy VII (FF6 is the real answer, but FF7 is the most similar game to FF6)
Similar aspects, lower quality: Dragon Quest IV, Radical Dreamers & Chrono Cross, possibly Radiant Historia

The pixel remaster attempts to do for FF2 what its GBA grandfather did for FF1: force a weird old game into later series mechanics, balance and challenge be damned. It went even worse than you’d expect due to a weaker understanding of FF2’s mechanics. It is easier in more respects than not, though, and it got rid of the special monster closet encounter rate.

I like 2 better than 1 because it has a better villain, better side characters, and a wild streak. 1 and 3 are boring by comparison.
