Ideally it'd be anime girl skins but I don't think that'd actually be worth doing.

In all seriousness I'd take another $15 class over legendary WarCraft-universe skins for my heroes. I think another way of farming would be kinda nice that's not infinite rifts/GRs.

I mean Id take a $15 class over a punch in the face.
That's not the argument tho, innit?

30 days if you have mobile auth enabled. I'd guess it's 6 months if you don't have that then.

I mean the Vita has a really vast amount of VNs available right? Pretty much all the major ones and quite a few fringe titles.

I'm at that weird point in learning japanese where I'm not quite able to read them without a texthooker, but would rather read them in japanese than english. It's something I'll do eventually though. And some VN I could play through in english instead like Steins;gate


Unrelated:
I think soccer having wider goals would make a lot of the dumb stuff about it less stupid. Scoring is far too difficult.

Scoring is only difficult because teams barely get 3 decent shots at the net in a game. I think it's more about 5~ players trying to score on 8 that creates the issue.

I dunno, the minimum theoretical advantage is only +1 (the goalie). It might be really stupid to not have any defenders, but there's no rules against it as far as I can remember. Hockey has plenty of goals scored with a similar issue (a defender's advantage).

Pretty much anything to make scoring easier would probably make the sport a lot less random and boring.

So does futsal.

Something that applies to 5-6 players teams in a small field won't necessarily apply to a huge field with 11 players. You won't have 10 players attacking against 11 players defending. There is just no room for them and it's would be a terrible strategy.

I once played in a league where a coach tried it. It was like, u10 or something so it worked occasionally because well, little kids. He just lined the kids up in a row and had them dribble the ball towards the goal every time they got possession.

I did always think indoor soccer was a much better game

Oldschool football was a bit more like that. Not 10 attacking players of course, but far more than today. As players and tactics got better it turned out to not really work out that well.

lol, I don't think it's dying. I just think it's boring.

Especially at very high levels of play. Amateur games are a lot more entertaining

Not exactly. No one watches it, but it's a really, really common sport for people to play when young. It's mostly thought of as a kids game, as no one really pays attention to it after High School. I played it until 12, and hated every second of it. Too much pointless running.

The corporations here don't push it as hard because it's harder to wring it out for ad money than American handegg (which is best described as a series of commercials interspersed with people literally beating the brains out of each other). If the viewership keeps falling for the NFL due to all the concussion shit (really, no one should play that) then I can see us moving towards rugby or real football instead. White people don't really watch basketball after the college level.

A country that watches baseball has no right to call any sport boring.
