I've now finished the first four dungeons in TotK, and...I'm so very much underwhelmed with their quality; they barely deserve to be called "dungeons" when this series has done so much better in the past.
The first Temple I cleared here was the Wind Temple, and I do like the idea - navigating a...
I just don't understand all the hype for this game; not only does it heavily inconvenience the player with fragile weapons and limited stamina (just like BotW), but it's also incredibly grindy when it comes to resources and Zonai devices, not to mention bringing back the downright-awful Korok...
My male cousin, 20 yo and only son of my mother's sister, is goddamn abusive and egotistical - he always makes everything revolve around him, and WILL start arguing over topics he dislikes.
His parents went through a very messy divorce when he was a kid, due to his father being a complete...
I got a new job recently; a graduate position in a government-funded teaching institution. Well, a couple of days ago, they asked me (and, well, every other graduate who got the job; it was in a Teams workshop) what "diversity" means to me.
To me, "diversity" means more than just the obvious...
Let's Go! Pikachu/Eevee:
No EXP Share toggle, unlike the 3DS games (which had it in the form of a Key Item), despite its party-wide EXP mechanic applying, restricting the freedom players have in how they raise their Pokemon. If they want to only raise one Pokemon at a time, they have to put the...
XC2's backstory includes the Aegis War, where people believe Mythra felled three Titans, and Temperantia is a war-torn battleground, with a giant crater known as the "Aegishammer" - except that T:TGC contradicts this. Everyone back then knew of Malos, since he was causing mass destruction and...
My laptop speakers are probably dying; I usually have it hooked to an old Sony Bravia TV, since that provides better audio than this laptop ever did and serves as a second screen, whenever I need it.
Well, today, when I wanted to play on my Switch I had to change the HDMI 'channel', reverting...
Hey look, a minor typo in the very last case in the game - "swords", not "sword".
Y'know this is the very series that introduced spirit channelling in the first game, right?
I have now finished The Great Ace Attorney 2, and thus The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles 2 as a whole, minus the eight "Escapades". I would now like to present my thoughts on the second game.
I'm still not exactly a fan of Episode 1, The Adventure of the Blossoming Attorney, for reasons I...
I just finished the first game of this duology yesterday, and I thought I'd put my thoughts on it down here.
Overall, the game is mechanically solid, with the jury being a welcome change from PW games; it allows for more drama, and having non-lawyers provide their opinions can be insightful...
1. Chop up some mushrooms and/or bacon, and put them on a frying pan. If using mushrooms, also put in a few large teaspoons of butter.
2. Begin to cook pasta. I prefer penne or conchiglie rigate (the ones that look like shells), so that's what I tend to cook.
3. Whilst the pasta's cooking, start...
I want to search this Xenoblade 2 GitHub.io data dump directory for a certain string - say, "I have much to learn..." or something. Is this possible?
Nerfs are just awful design decisions, that developers put in when they feel they cannot buff other mechanics or systems or abilities to match the 'problematic' thing. No matter what game or series nerfs are applied to, they always end up feeling horrible for players, and end up making the game...
1) She has no weaknesses, meaning there's practically no drama in any fights that include her. She's going to win since she's on the side of good, and a woman; unlike Superman, there's no handheld mcguffin that's going to weaken her in any way. This used to not be the case, when she was first...
- Finish off Persona 4 Golden; currently on 10 Feb, right before the second-last dungeon (and the most bullshit dungeon due to its absurd restrictions).
- Probably finish off Okami HD (last save: North Ryoshima Coast)?
- Probably finish off Xenoblade: DE again (NG+ playthrough; last save: Eryth...
My NSW P2 driver's license is going to expire in June, but I'm unsure as to whether I should renew my P2 license (cheaper, and I don't drive much at all so I'd feel more comfortable with the plates) or upgrade to a full unrestricted license (more expensive, but would allow me to have a bit of...
"Okay, so we've got this live-service game, Marvel's Avengers, that cost us a butt-load of money to have our slaves workers develop, right?"
"Yessir."
"And it's been haemorrhaging players since launch."
"It has been, yes, sir."
"We did release that new character, what's-her-name, the female...
This will be a list of things I don't like about this game, that's actually quite fun.
When completing a mission, there's no option to automatically obtain all weapons, whereas pressing X on the 'Materials Obtained' screen gets them all. From memory, this was fixed in Fire Emblem Warriors (at...
So far, I'm interested in exactly six games that have been announced for 2021; the rest...meh.
1) Persona 5 Strikers (23 Feb). I absolutely love Persona 5 and P5 Royal, and I've been looking forward to this sequel for a year or so now. Hopefully it's bloody excellent, as the RPGs were - but the...

@BigOnYa, I think that listening to the same 15 songs on the music player in my dad's car all the time made me kind of hate "normal" music.+1

I seen a bunny rabbit get swept up and taken by a hawk yesterday in my back yard, it left a bunch of rabbit hair in grass. Wild to see it fly off carrying a rabbit.

The other night was watching tv in my screened in porch, and heard something walking on my porch roof, thought maybe it was a raccoon, so I grabbed my rifle and went out to look, it was just a duck, lol+1
