@Anti-Matter Xcom 2 is T at least, the first was m for language. So if you ever wanted to try it.

@Sunsy your playing one or two? I heard two is much different from the first one, but I would still say a lot of the same still applies, just less complicated, I never played one, so sorry if I can’t give good tips.

@Eel I have a question (I'm fine with whatever answer you give me) how does one become a mod on forums and wiki's? info like that on the internet is scarce. I'm just wondering, it's a thought I've had for months, I just thought I'd ask a real mod about it.

When I joined the mod team here, they were looking for people interested in joining, and I simply asked if I could.

I don’t think they’ll ever add more mods like that though. NL has been evolving and becoming an actual company, so they probably can’t just go and give random people authority anymore… Do keep in mind that that’s just my opinion though.

As for other sites, I’m afraid I don’t know.

These celebrities are always getting themselves headlined on some controversy. There's no such thing as bad publicity, as they say.

But there is such a thing as an apology (for slapping a celebrity on stage at the Oscars) so bad, no one would ever watch your movies ever again. Like seriously, Will Smith checked every box from the "YouTuber apology video starter pack."

You know that I only play kids games.
Only a few rated Teen games can be approved after they passed my inspection first.

@Anti-Matter That’s why I was telling you 2 was T, so you can check it out, tho I don’t think you will like it anyway, I still just threw the option out there, just in case.

@TheJGG Enjoy your time in nature! Based off of how much time you've allegedly put into Xenoblade Chronicles 3, not to mention your family's reaction, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the game must be VERY good. My copy is still slated for Monday. What's maddening is that it's currently sitting in my local UPS hub.... :grimace:

Appreciated! It’s been fun so far, though the last four days my legs… I can only assume they’ve been cramped, since I can’t even walk properly! It’s interesting how that didn’t show up until the day after I finished the two day hike/climb. Going down stairs makes me feel like I’m eighty, and I’m not even there yet! Otherwise not bad though. I have some great photos I think you, @MarioLover92, @Sunsy, @WoomyNNYes, @Snatcher and maybe even @Maxenmus can enjoy!

On Xenoblade 3, you’ll get there. It will be SO worth it. So worth it. All the frustration of getting it late will melt away into the ether the second you start the game. I’m really excited to hear what you make of it.

Impressive. Very nice. Let's see Paul Allen's photos.

But jokes aside, that's an impressive hike. Must feel nice and rewarding to have those amazing scenic sights after the climb.

I've followed you on Twitter.

@TheJGG Ahh, the old soreness-delayed-until-the-next-day. The body is a trickster. Looks awesome out there. Thanks for sharing the travel photos. Man, that's some cool meandering-river-action going on there. Really like that palm photo.

@TheJGG Sounds like you might've overexerted your legs a bit. A few more days/weeks of that, and you'll be hiking and clambering up mountains like a champ! I can relate on overexertion lol. Walking is SO not fun when you've given your legs a well deserved rest....Love the photos. Scenery is always amazing from the air, and the Buddhist (feel free to correct me if I have the wrong religion) temple or shrine is breathtaking.

On XC3: Eh, what's a few days? It'll get played when it gets played lol. I just wish the timing was better; i had a TON of time last weekend, but this weekend and most of the following week are pretty booked IRL.

@Maxenmus I did see you started a Digimon Survive thread in the Switch forum. I'm mostly staying out of it in fear of spoilers however. I was very into Digimon back in the day. Never quite as much as Pokemon, but they were close in my book. I watched until the end of season 4 (Frontier), then missed Savers since the airing rights went to a TV channel I had no access to at the time. Then I watched parts of Fusion both subbed and dubbed and...didn't care for it very much. I missed Digivolution (though they did add it in later) and didn't care for the fusion/Voltron approach. I also had some of the cards at one point, still own a few toys (in storage), and have played a couple of the DS Digimon World JRPG entries.

@Anti-Matter Heh, what can we say? People change lol. I was never into Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana, but plenty of people apparently like her music. My sister had the Hannah Montana game on Wii, and it was...meh. She mainly played it for the shopping part, which wasn't bad, but the motion controlled musical bits... ugh. The game didn't register your movements correctly and was just frustrating in general. You'd have better luck playing a Just Dance title. The game was an excellent example of licensed shovelware.

@Eel I'd like to add context to me asking that out of the blue. I have had a ""fantasy"" of becoming a mod on a forum for a while and I finally decided to ask someone about it and I thought I'd ask you since you are a mod on this site. Before I asked I googled around to see what it was like to apply to become a mod on a forum or wiki, after my search was somewhat fruitless I asked you. After you gave me your answer (thank you) I realised that I probably will never be a mod, and I'm fine with that. I'm happy being a user here with all the lovely folks on here.

Good on you! Yes, do try to avoid spoilers because this game is definitely best experienced without spoilers. I will say that everything I post in the thread are largely spoiler-free, but your decision of going in with as little knowledge of what the game is about as possible is also a good idea too IMO.

Just be aware that this 'game' is largely a visual novel first with very light tactical RPG gameplay, so adjust your expectations accordingly.

That's pretty much almost similar to my experience. I was definitely more into Digimon than Pokémon, but I did have my share of Pokémon fandom, especially in terms of the games since I've never played a Digimon video game (unless you count the Digimon virtual pet toys) until about a decade ago with the first Digimon World on the Playstation, when I finally got curious what the game was like. I never got into the cards, merely into Pokémon cards. As a huge Digimon fan, I would've loved to gotten into the TCG, but it's hard to do that around Singapore since all the kids were into Pokémon cards back in the day. Literally no one would play Digimon cards with you around here.

I stopped watching the anime after Digimon Savers. It's a shame you didn't get to catch it since I thought it was an improvement after Digimon Frontier (which felt like a rehash of Digimon Adventure). They went to a more mature cop drama route, with the main protagonist literally punching all the enemy Digimon with his fists... Yeah, that was memed a lot back in the day. lol

I liked her music too for a little while in my teens even though I'm a guy. Her songs were fun and energetic. But it was around this time that I started to grow out of Disney Channel and moved on to anime. I still love one of Miley's songs today though: The Climb. That song always picks me up when I'm in a bad place, encouraging you to keep climbing past whatever obstacles you face because...

"There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose"

God, such a great song.🥲

@Maxenmus
Well, I was a Monster Rancher fan back during PS1 & PS2 era. I played Monster Rancher 2 PS1 & Monster Rancher 4 PS2 when I was teen. I have ever watched Monster Farm anime back during early 2000.
I remembered my favorite monster from Monster Rancher 2 was Gali (Sun mask ghost with majestic cloak) and their fusion.
Not a fan of Digimon franchise as it looks too edgy for me.
I knew about Pokemon franchise since when I was teen but didn't really show some strong interest at that moment.
My first time playing Pokemon games from Pokemon X 3DS in year 2013 after I felt curious to see some kids I found played Pokemon X/Y on 3DS during that era.
But I have more hype from Yokai Watch games on 3DS than Pokemon games as I started to play Yokai Watch games on 3DS in year 2021. Yokai Watch 3 3DS was my favorite Yokai Watch games despite I played the Japanese version (Tempura version).

About Miley Cyrus, she was so fabulous when she was teen from Hannah Montana franchise and I played Hannah Montana games on PS3, PSP and NDS despite I already know their games are mediocre.
Too bad, she changed too drastically when she grow up.

@Anti-Matter I wouldn't call Digimon "edgy," more like they're targeting more mature audiences. There's a difference between mature and edgy; edgy is a juvenile story trying too hard to act mature by adding dark and violent elements for no reason at all; Digimon's mature themes have a point to them.

It's like saying Pokémon Legends: Arceus and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon are edgy just because they're darker. In fact, I heard a lot of people called Pokémon: Origins edgy too, even though that's not really true.

Also, can I just say how much I hate the word, "edgy?" It just triggers me whenever someone uses it to describe something I love (or even using it to describe me). The word itself has its uses and function, but more often than not, it's thrown around by people who dismiss other people's fandom because they think that the "darker" aesthetics and themes are ridiculous. I like dark and tragic stories, and I think they have their place in this world. Shakespeare loves telling tragic stories: Macbeth, Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet. Those stories aren't "edgy" just because the main characters went through such tragedies and melancholy, so I don't see why dark anime shows should be dismissed as "pointlessly edgy" just because they happen to tap on the more unexplored bestial nature hidden deep within the human psyche.
