Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

@WoomyNNYes Not quite Petra, although we did go there! Saw the Treasury, and we went up to a monastery after climbing up 900 stairs. Happy to visit, especially for Christmas. I didn’t expect it at all when I woke up on January first this year.

Please answer my quick question.
Are Pokemon Rumble World 3DS and Pokemon Rumble Blast 3DS physical release playable offline ?

@JaxonH my sincerest condolences as well 😞

That’s got to be one of the most dreaded events a human can go through, even if you’ve had a long time to prepare and one last happy moment, it’s not an easy experience. I hope you and your family have a peaceful grieving period and get through it together.

Merry Christmas all, I had a really great one, And it was Enjoyed to the fullest. Also a thanks to all of you as you guys have gotten me through some tough times, thank you!

I hope everyone else, had a great Christmas, Its days like this that reminded me, i'm really blessed!
And a happy new year!

@TheJGG If you don't mind me asking, but just what makes the hotel so bad? I need to know!

@Eel
Um, did you play Pokemon Rumble World and Blast 3DS physical version ?
Could you help to answer my quick question about those games before i pick the games ?

@Anti-Matter I played the free to play version of World.

As far as I know, the one difference in the physical version is that the game gives you daily diamonds, instead of expecting you to buy them.

@Eel
Are those games can be played offline ?
I saw some cheap prices of both games (Rumble World and Rumble Blast USA physical version) on my local online shopping website and i need to know this first before getting them.

@Anti-Matter well I can’t talk about Blast since I haven’t played that, but I don't remember World having any major multiplayer component outside of finding Miis from other players in missions and your plaza. (They’re not real players, only their Miis representing them)

I think you’d really enjoy World, since you can give roles to Miis.

@Eel
I mean are those games can be played offline (without get connected to internet) ?

@Anti-Matter I don’t have those games (my version of World is the free to play version) so I wouldn’t know if they require an internet connection to play, sorry.

I don’t see why would they though.

@Eel
I see...
I think i have to find out from Google or Youtube about physical version.

@TheJGG Thanks, definitely did. Nephew and I were laughing at some video games he was playing, and I got to watch Trolls Holiday In Harmony with my sister-in-law, and they got me Shin Megami Tensei V, steelbook version. It was a good time with family.

@Anti-Matter I don't have the physical version, the F2P download version of Pokemon Rumble World works offline from what I remember. I was away from home when playing it. So I assume it's the same with the physical version.

@Snatcher Merry Christmas, glad it was great one. Aww, that's nice. This place is great. That's why I posted how thankful I was about this thread awhile back. I feel like I could be myself.

Christmas was great. Nephew and I laughed at some video games, watched Trolls Holiday In Harmony with my sister-in-law, and got Shin Megami Tensei V (this game is excellent so far), Sonic Colors Ultimate, some Trolls figures (Poppy and Val), and a couple of shirts and a book.

The shirts had characters I love on them (Poppy on one, Pipp from My Little Pony on the other), and the book was a Trolls World Tour book with some beautiful artwork in it.

Yeah the free version doesn’t really force you to be online. But you kinda need to be able to connect online to enjoy it completely.

I assume the physical version is different in that front though, since it doesn’t have micro transactions. But I can’t say for sure.

In other news, I’m finally getting comfortable using the MacBook Air. I’ve installed and configured most of the tools I need for work, and even bought Stardew Valley on GOG just to have it on it without having to install steam. I probably won’t play it too much, but I just like having at least one game on every device just in case.

The keyboard in particular, after getting using to the position of the function keys, and the (rather huge) trackpad, are extremely nice. I was able to transition to it really quickly. Which is nice.

The lack of a touch screen is a bit confusing though. But I guess I’ll get used to it.

Also, it felt a bit wrong, but I gutted the box to make more space inside to store small objects in there. I call it… repurposing…

@Sunsy
Oh, thanks for the quick reply. 😀

@Eel For the life of me I can't use MacOS. My brain is wired to Windows I remember how bad I struggled with a Mac when I worked in Gameloft ... I am glad those days are behind me

But on the other hand iPadOS is fantastic. This is the only good thing produced by Apple ... the iPad.

@Zuljaras yeah it’s my first experience with macOS too. It’s… Very different from what I’m used to. I guess my experience with the iPads helps a bit, but it’s super different to that too!

Thankfully my brother is 100% a MacHead so he’s been helpful. (Guess who convinced me to buy it in the first place.)

Thanks @Sunsy 😁 hope your Christmas was a good one. I saw that pick you posted yesterday, looks nice! Did you get SMT V and Sonic as gifts? The trolls look super cute btw.

@Sunsy Amazing to hear, My Christmas was amazing as well, I got, the disney classic collection, Oh and the manga seraph of the end! I can't wait to read it, as its been on my manga list! and its actually my first manga I have in physical form!
(BTW the Disney classic collection, kicked my ass)
And of course, I can't forget about the ps5 coming soon!

Plus watched christmas movies all day! it was amazing!

Also also, It was a white christmas, It looked amazing along with the gift opening and passing.

My desktop calendar 2022 has been already made since mid November 2021, but i still haven't uploaded the cover of my desktop calendar 2022 here.
Should i post the sneak peek of the cover here ?

@CactusMan
Here we go.

I made the sequel of Boxing Tunes from year 2018 with calendar interface redesigned version of my Boxing on Ice calendar 2021.

Also, i made a calendar poster 2022 with A3 size and all 12 months displayed (already displayed on my bedroom wall).
