    …because he wasn’t ever actually meant to be the main character, he just happened to steal the show, like a good pirate.

        Balthier is the real protagonist, though Asche is another contender.

        Vaan is the player character, but he might as well be the silent “protagonist”/PC that gets dragged through the plot that’s led by the actual protagonist(s). He probably would’ve been better that way.

          Well, Balthier does ask him at one point why he is there and he just doesn’t have an answer for it.

              I found it fun.
              And reinforces the sentiment that Vaan really isn’t the main character.

    Anyone else having piratebay and 1337x redirect their browsers to weird German porn lately?

      I couldn’t say, but I’ve had my german porn changed to shady pirate websites and it’s infuriating

            Yeah when instead of anything constructive or related the thread nosedives into puns and other cheap jokes.

              Remember folks, Reddit invented levity. Before Reddit “sarcasm” was just a Tuscan pasta dish.

              Probably because your original comment sounds like a shitpost. If that’s an authentic problem you have then it sounds like you’ve got malware in your browser, or maybe someone with higher access in your network hierarchy (apartment or university admin) is doing a redirect of some kind, though why to porn i cant imagine so I think we’re back to “malware in the stack”.

                I think malware is fairly unlikely considering I’m running Firefox with only Ublock Origin and NoScript on Debian on a month old PC.

                I forget if I’m using Cloudflare DNS via Firefox’s DNS protection or if I’m letting my router handle it through the reputable VPN’s DNS, but I’d consider them both unlikely sources of that kind of issue.

                I’m at a loss.

          You should learn about prowlarr and then set it up along with radarr and sonarr (and whatever other *arr service you’d find useful, there’s a bunch).

          Both show the correct domains so I have no idea. They both load the normal sites for me.

          Maybe it’s whatever DNS service you’re using?

    I was helping someone download a tv show on an Ipad, they use Ublock origin on their laptop. The problem is that their is no Ublock orgin on the ipad, I kept trying to find the download button and getting ads in the end I gave up. I just used the laptop. There was no torrent for this show, I had to use a shity ad-ridden site.
