Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

@ReaderRagfish Your park sounds like some of the real parks I've been to.

My only complaint in that game was that no matter how thrilling my coaster was it either never amazed people, or made them all nauseous but never in between. On the rare occasion it was good, it would get stuck all the time. Which also sounds like one of the real parks I've been to.

Ughhhh. Forgot I have to check on friends’ cats before the direct. Zoom zoom!!

I'll be watching the direct from Vinesauce's twitch channel. He's already streaming so if I leave it open I won't miss it.

I’m back and prepped!!

Oh hey, the last update for minecraft is now available on the vita. Cool, let's update it one last time...

(Please free 1GB worth of data to update)

I hate it already.

Im gonna miss this Nintendo Direct because the chat is explosive

So much final fantasy

Animal Crossing! Finally!!!

I thought this was a great Direct, they had something for everyone’s tastes! Even though I didn’t get Fallout, I am so happy that a Katamari is coming. I’ll even redo load the old iPad game now to get pumped.
I’m in chat sooner than I thought cause I needed to put an ice pack on the back of my neck and lie down. It’s been killing me this week.

IMO this Direct was better overall than the E3 one. I'm pretty satisfied, all things considered.

In other news, Metroid: Other M came in the mail today. Not sure when I'll get around to playing it yet though. XD

Been playing Eternal Darkness Sanity's Requiem. My friend had a copy and was nice enough to let me borrow it. It's a game that has been on my radar for some time, and I've always wanted to try it for the mind-tripping it is known for. I'm not too far into the game but I'm impressed with the presentation, and it is very creepy. I never knew this game was exclusively for Gamecube, what a powerhouse console it was.

@superluigi111 Eternal Darkness is easily one of my favorite games. Hope you enjoy it!

@tyranexx I beat Other M last weekend, have to wrap up all the missing items now. I think it’s great, not sure what the negativity at the time was. Tip; enemies don’t drop energy , and bosses can be hard as nails.

Welp, LABO 3 is out today. I’m gonna try to hold out for a while, I’ve got plenty other things to play and/or finish. But....I do so love those things.

@readerragfish *yet

If your house floods, and you're in an area where an evacuation was ordered... I don't think EMS will come.

@HobbitGamer Good to see I'm not alone in liking Other M. I thought it was pretty good. Shame they won't ever try a game like that anymore.

Yeah I really liked it. The faster speed was fun, too. Seemed like it made Samus more of a nimble, proficient hunter than a hulking weapons platform.

But muh stoic emotionless heroine

She's still emotionless for the most part. Unless it's about The Baby or Adam. Then she really gets chatty with her flat voice. I feel like the voice acting during her expositions was always one sentance away from going very dark... "As my mind wandered, I thought how easy it would be to strip the flesh off the soulless shell of MB." Or something like that.

Just me? Hmm....

Haha yeah. It's just that people really hated how she somehow gained the ability to express thoughts and emotions, and worse... She had weaknesses, mental scars, and is following instructions.

I mean for all we know she spent the totality of Metroid 1 saying "EW EW EW EW EW EW" out loud.

After all this is the same person who couldn't finish the job in Metroid II because she felt sad for the last Metroid, and identified with it.

I read about some of that criticism, too. Ridiculous. I really got tickled when some folks thought the Ridley scene was some sexist portrayal of weakness.
They should go live in the woods as a child, let a bear kill their parents, grow up to fight and kill the bear, then be confronted by the bear they thought was dead. If they show any inkling of amazement, shock, or dismay that this previously dead bear is still alive and about to attack them, they're clearly sexist.

Ah, humans.

Yeah, she was probably thinking "ohgodnotagaaaaain! whats that noise now? ugh, so many bad things! what am i doing with my life!?". That's what goes through my head when I play a Metroid game, anyway
