@Sunsy That's cool. Looks like Trolls 3 will come out on Mario Kart: Double Dash's 20th anniversary... gosh, I feel old saying that, lol! I didn't have MKDD when it came out, but I did get it as a Christmas present back in 2003, and I still have my copy of it. Enjoy the movie when it comes out. Thank you - we just got a couple Mario balloons yesterday, and we'll be picking up my cake from the bakery when it gets closer to my birthday. We're planning on having mushroom fettuccine for dinner that day, as well! Thought I'd mention that to you since you enjoy cooking.

@Zuljaras I know my reply is a few days late, but I like your handheld collection.

@Tyranexx That's cool, glad you enjoyed your classes. I also had an art major in addition to the computer classes that I took, and I enjoyed the art classes quite a bit. I'd say even more so than stuff like programming. I've drawn since I was much younger, and I did really well in my drawing class for example, so looks like I've had it in me all this time, lol! I just need to be in the habit of drawing more often.

Ah yeah for sure, I can always look stuff up while I make a program. I could also make a plan for what kind of program I want to make, so I potentially won't get stuck as often. I can at least make a text adventure game on C++.

@Rambler yup it’s that one, it’s one of those things that are tasty but you can’t really eat a lot of

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika and I'm over here in my corner waiting for Spider-Verse 2

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika @Kermit1 Just out of interest but what are your favourite classes in XC3?

@TeaCatherine Mio's class and Lance's class. I'm a Mio main.

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika You have good taste. Flash Fencer is probably my no.1 class and most of the other ones you named rank pretty highly too.
@Kermit1 Huh? Why'd you pick such basic ones?

@TeaCatherine I like Mio's playstyle

@Fizza Do you wanna play Mario Kart 8 Deluxe or N64 online with me and @ChameleonBros? I'm also considering playing F-Zero X with you guys. We're planning on playing at 9:30 PM EDT.

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika What makes you think I don't have the Signifier class? I do have it because the hero quest for Fiona becomes available at the same time as the Triton one. But, I digress, they're great picks and probably the ones I'd choose too.

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika To be honest, I've started using the silver nopon coins for ranking classes up occasionally but that's because I literally wasn't using them for anything else really. I reached 99 and so they were just being autosold. What are your views on the class Full Metal Jaguar?

Huh, I'm kinda surprised no one has questioned my bio phrase "Machines should work, People should think"

@Kermit1 Okay, if you want someone to ask, I'll ask. Why? Where? Who?

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Duly noted. I'll likely try to fit it in should I finally jump for a Disney+ trial at some point. Or if I'm lucky, it'll end up on other streaming platforms at some point....

LOL To be fair, popcorn and soda pair up very well together. Caffeinated soda can definitely increase the need to pee, and liquids in general obviously contribute. I have heard decent things about the Octo expansion depending on who you ask.

@MarioLover92 I wanted to go into art when I was VERY young but learned quickly that it wasn't for me. I'm not bad at drawing if I work at it, but it takes way more time and patience than I'm usually willing to dedicate. Plus I unfortunately have perfectionist tendencies, so I can get frustrated easily if I'm not in the right headspace for it. I did have to take an abstract art class for the Game Dev certificate, but that was more the department head trying to find something that fit the art design bill; IIRC they switched the requirement to a different class not long after. A lot of people in similar majors to me dropped, but I kept at it. I barely scraped an A- in that class. I don't think outside the box very well when it comes to abstract work - I'm more into drawing scenes, objects, and nonhuman subjects - and a misunderstanding at one point hurt my grade a smidge earlier on.

I made a text adventure game using C# at one point. It's nothing extravagant, but I quite enjoyed doing it. C++ is still fairly popular and is closer to basic C than C# if I recall.

@TeaCatherine It was used in this IBM short film (directed by a young Jim Henson) and I thought more people should see it.

also, this looks like something I'd do in Minecraft but now it's real life

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika I haven't had the opportunity to do any ascension quests yet, I don't even know the conditions for them. Also, thanks for the advice, I suppose with such a good back attack art that would be a good idea.

@Kermit1 I don't even know who Jim Henson is but it is quite a good quote.

@TeaCatherine He's Kermit, Ernie. He created The Muppets, The Dark Crystal, and Labyrinth, co-helped create Sesame Street and did much more.

My hero, if I had one.

@Kermit1 Ah, right. Sorry, I don't really know much about famous people, whether it be present day or late last century.

Whatever you do don't play Neptunia Re:Verse. It's a trap. I've lost the whole saturday and I don't even know where it went.

If I didn't see the in-game clock I probably would have forgotten to sleep

@TeaCatherine I'm a film geek, it's my 9 to 5.
