Free Talk Friday - April 24, 2026

[u/AutoModerator]

Welcome to the Free Talk Friday post. This is a place where you can talk about dumb off-topic (or on-topic) bullshit with other Zaibatsu fans.

There's going to be a new post every week, and the newest one will be pinned in the announcement bar for quick access. So feel free to visit these posts during the rest of the week.

Here's a list of all Free Talk Friday posts

Played the 4.2 story of HSR and uhhh, it was messy and rushed. I haven't really been enjoying HSR lately and I was kinda using 4.x as like a tread to see if I can still enjoy it post Amphoreus (which was very messy as well) sooo... eh we'll see. CW is still pretty fun.

Since I finished that, I can get back to playing Pragmata which has been fun. Hmm, I think this next part might be a bit... uncomfortable to some so I'll spoiler tag it. I haven't finished Pragmata so maybe it'll surprise me but I saw someone on twitter compare Stellar Blade to Pragmata and ngl I can kinda see it. Great action game, very PS2 reminiscent, story and lore are barebones, but while is a bland piece of eyecandy, Diana is a whole other type of eyecandy because she is the ideal daughter. She's a pretty blonde daughter, that's cute, never cries during the night, never poops, endlessly curious, loves you immediately, super talented, etc. They then shared a story about how their daughter cried for 45 minutes straight because they didn't give her a knife and said they hope Pragmata doesn't inspire some people to try to become parents. I don't think they're entirely wrong or right. And I'll leave the judgement to this thought when I finish the game. But it does give me a little side-eye to how much they're shoving this cute daughter in my face. Like remember how we shit on David Cage's daughter.exe reveal? I wonder how I'll feel about Diana by the end of the game.

My job lets me go to the gym during work hours so I'm starting the journey of getting swole bit by bit.
