Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

I suppose that's a bit more subjective. For example, I think Xerneas looks cooler than Yveltal.

I'm not sure I'd call any cover pokemon cute, besides Pikachu and Eevee.

@Eel Yeah that's true, and even then, (in my opinion), Let's Go Pikachu was such a disappointment of a game. I hate the throwing mechanic, and it's too easy, at least compared to Sun.

The trainers get high levels, and don't give out that much exp. So they can get tricky if you don't overlevel/spend too much time catching pokemon.

The ultra games on the 3ds have some fun difficulty spikes too, if you liked Sun/Moon and haven't played the Ultra versions, I recommend them

@Eel I've been looking at the Ultra games, but I've kinda stopped playing most 3ds games at this point.

@Eel A bird dragon raptor thing.....and you think the glorified reindeer is the cooler design?

@NEStalgia one of them looks like a mutant beggin' strip.

@Tyranexx Yeah I think you're right, it definitely seems to be that way with regular algebra stuff. I will admit, some math courses were pretty dang tough for me. lol

Just curious. Are you planning on getting Animal Crossing: New Horizons? I've been playing it a ton and it would be cool to see each of our islands. There's a nice community for the game right here on NL, too!

@Eel That Among Us game looks strangely compelling to play. I'd be down for some online multiplayer, if it wasn't for the massive comparative time warp/displacement that I'm living in over here...

@Tyranexx Haha, yeah I can imagine, from experience as well, obviously. Dutch is not exactly your average "pick up & play" language, so it definitely takes some practice...

@Vinny As an appreciator and/or fan of early Greek society and mythology, I'm thoroughly disappointed to hear that...

@NEStalgia Hey, man. There's simply no accounting for taste. Besides: you like trains. TRAINS.
Come on, seriously?

@Heavyarms55 Xerneas is definitely OP. In hindsight I'm glad I went with Y; what passed as its plot was a bit more apocalyptic thanks to that wyvern's talents. If I recall correctly anyway. It's been a little while.

@MarioLover92 I did all right with trigonometry, but I waded into the actual calculus stuff just enough to know I was gonna be in over my head past that point lol.

On Animal Crossing: I'd like to pick up New Horizons at some point, but I doubt it'll be anytime soon. I've only owned my Switch for about a year and am still playing catch-up lol. I went a bit overboard stockpiling games in advance via gifts or sales. XD I still buy new titles if I absolutely must have them, but some I can easily wait on.

@ThanosReXXX Definitely not lol. I've come across a few Dutch words, some of which I can get the general meaning of. But to try to follow along while it's spoken naturally? Way above my level. XD

@Tyranexx So how've the gen 6 mons treated you in Go? I haven't been able to find a Froakie yet. But Fenniken has been popping up a good bit. And I already evolved a Litleo.

@Heavyarms55 I got out a little bit this evening again - had to drop something off at normal work to HR, then grab groceries - but I didn't have a ton of luck. Nothing new appeared nearby to my knowledge, and today was a rare yet irritating Day of Fleeing. I do have enough candy to evolve Chespin (/shudder), but I want to find a better one to evolve first. I haven't seen a Froakie yet either; water spawns aren't very common here. They rarely appear on the trails since there's a small river and a couple of creeks, but those are closed again this weekend. Round 2 of Kill Bambi Season.

Sooo...Not the best today. XD

@Tyranexx Darn. Better luck next time. And yeah, I could evolve my Fenniken but I haven't found a decent one yet.

I keep trying to explain the water spawn thing to the kid, but he's lived his whole life in this dried up wasteland. Months at a time and no bodies of water for hundreds of miles and with no rain is perfectly normal to him. So he doesn't quite get it why water Pokemon are so uncommon...

@Tyranexx Oh okay. That's perfectly fine. I'm pretty much the same way with newly released games, just getting them if I truly want them - especially with brand new Mario platformers. I get them the year they come out, at least - that's more than enough to make the child in me jump for joy. Otherwise I'll see if I get it as a gift, if they're on sale, or if the regular price is like $20. My backlog plays a role in this area too, though I may see myself getting burnt out on a game and move on to something else. And don't even get me started on me getting stuck in certain games. That happened to me in Final Fantasy VI just 3 hours in, for example. lol

Bask in the glory of my Switch collection

@Zuljaras Holy crap! You've been a busy collector, haven't you now?

P.S.

Any new sculpting projects coming up?

@ThanosReXXX After I beat Covid-19 I will make something. Right now I do not have the energy to make something.

And I have the perfect idea. It will be my personal design of the Horseman of the Apocalypse Pestilence!

Woohoo...!!! 😃😃😃
My games order have been arrived.
I bought nine games by total.

I bought 1 Switch game, 1 PS4 game, 1 Wii game, 2 Xbox 360 games, 4 PS1 games.

Btw, i got DDR Konamix in sealed condition including the price tag in US$. Actually it was very old game i bought from Tokopedia, the item was in Sealed condition sold with very cheap price. My first PS1 USA game bought in sealed condition. 😃

Yo, @ThanosReXXX !
Take a look.

My first time Xbox 360 games purchase ever ! 😃
My first Xbox 360 game was Kinect Adventures, bought in sealed condition.
My second Xbox 360 game was Deca Sports Freedom, bought in used very good condition.

I will buy Xbox 360 E USA version very soon.
I found the seller who have Xbox 360 E NTSC-U Blue color and the machine was working fine.
I have to buy White Kinect from other seller since the machine didn't come with Kinect and majority of my Xbox 360 games on the list are Kinect games.
Hopefully my plan will comes true.

@Zuljaras Wow that's a big collection! Also, I didn't know you had Covid-19, I wish you good luck to beating it.

@Anti-Matter Not terrible first picks for 360 games. I do recommend playing Portal 2 if you're into challenges.

@HotGoomba___Rebrand I still have it after 8 days of suffering! Stupid Chinese flu.

This is probably the most durable thing they ever made
