Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

No problem, @Tyranexx .... Glad someone else already asked about your avatar so I know who it is, since I'm not familiar with those games, lol

It's officially May 1st. We'll definitely get the big blowout of Pokemon Scarlet/Violet info soon, right? RIGHT?!

(I made the mistake of revisiting the official website because now all I can think of is when we'll get the big Pokemon Presents dump of new mons and characters. I want to be free of this pain)

It’s Mother’s Day month, so that means I have to spend money on gifts for every maternal figure in my life. Sigh my wallet.

On the flip side, it’s my birthday month. So there’s that to look forward to.

And for some reason, for a third year in a row, I’m having a big Pac-Man kick right now. So I predict Pac-Man gifts in my future, again.

So my Dungeon and Dragons night went well last night. Had a few hiccups mainly with Discord as this was my first time using it, that and two of my players had their internet go down right before game time. Other then that everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Might play again next week but it depends on Mother's Day.

I was hyped with Epic Chef PS4 recently.

I have accumulated more than 20 hours gameplay.
I enjoyed the game so far as the calculating numbers of Vigor, Spirit and Sophistication points +Judge's Taste + Aroma point will determine who win who lose. I quickly understand how to make (bizarre) dishes with very high point on either Sophistication or Spirit as dishes with high Spirit or Sophistication points were easier to be made than high Vigor point dishes. The key is determining which ingredients should be put first then 2nd ingredients and 3rd ingredients. Sauce for finishing touch to add more points of specific attributes or will plus / minus the points during judging. Also, I enjoyed the storyline despite there were quite a lot rude dialogues and hilarious moments.

Looking at the actual age rating on retail copy, I was quite surprised the game was rated PEGI 7 with additional age rating
PG Australia and USK 6 on the disc when the game have some censored bad words (written as some ***) from the dialogues.
I saw it was rated PEGI 12 before from Google image.

So, who else have ever played Epic Chef ?

So I’m gonna ask this here because there’s not an active Fire Emblem thread.

Is there any relation between FE: Awakening and FE: Fates? I want to play Fates first, so I can decide if I want to buy both parts or just Birthright, but if there’s Awakening spoilers, I won’t….

@BabyYoda71 Here's a thread for fire emblem
https://www.nintendolife.com/forums/nintendo-switch/fire_embl...

Happy may first everyone!

Fates is set before Awakening, @BabyYoda71 .... Definitely recommend playing Birthright 1st as that's a bit easier!

Anyone here know how to attach screen captures as images for use in places like the comments/forums? I've been able to do it for my pfp but I don't understand how it would work for regular posts. Is it just (img) (/img) again?

@Snatcher May the fourth be with you...

@Kermit1 Ah I forgot about that lol.

@Fizza I’m not sure, which screen capture is it?

@Kermit1 That one hasn’t been used since 2019, so I wasn’t sure if I was supposed to use it…

@BruceCM Oh, I didn’t know that! I know most of the FE games aren’t really related but I wasn’t sure if those two were. I’m definitely getting Birthright first, but if I really enjoy it I might get Conquest as well.

@Snatcher The one on Google Chromebook (I'm not sure whether it's the same across all Google devices but that's the one I have).

@Fizza That’s odd, I have a chrombook as well, tho I don’t think I have posted a photo that was a screenshot.

Is it another type of file? Maybe it needs to be a specific file type?

@Snatcher When a screen capture is saved, it shows up as like 'Screenshot - (date) - (time taken) .jpg'. Maybe it's not possible to have it show up because it's a specific file name to your device? If there's any tech-savvy people here reading this, please let me know if I'm on the right wavelength.

Yeah, there's a few little connections between the 3 Fates & Awakening, @BabyYoda71 .... Not really major spoilers, either way but particularly not for playing Fates 1st!

@Fizza I think so, well at leas that’s what happens to me whenever I name. File, I can’t use it, but that doesn’t sound to be the issue, I will have to test it.

So I decided to replay super paper Mario, and this game is way shorter than I remember. I knew it was one of the shorter games in the series, but I have been able to wrap up chapter two after 2:30 hours of play time. To be fair, accounting for 8 chapters, that would be like 10 hours but for a series full of 20 plus hour games, it is kinda short.

Still one of my favorite games, but just an observation I have. And to be fair I was able to skip most of 1-3 and 2-3 just by my memory Of the game.

@Fizza Uh, try (img) (/img) using a direct link. But I think I need to know more of what you're trying to do first... (I have a Chromebook too btw)
