@Eagly I got Deadpool from a charity shop on a whim so I guess I'll watch that at some point. Would reply more but it's very late at night and I've got to be up about 6AM tomorrow.
Does XC2 have a prioritise driver or Blade combo thing, by the way? You know, like the thing in 3 and Torna.

@Eagly thank you so much to responding to it, because I needed to vent in that moment lol. Yeah I would never talk about her characterization like I know her, never played her game. Also I agree with your GOTG statement!
I totally forgot, they can switch out there cloths! It’s something I sorta forget about because they don’t mention it much but they do! They can switch out of the outfits, and they do control what hey wear! You’re so right! Also, brighid raiding morags closet, now that’s a nice thought! I wonder what her room looks like, and if they share, sorry getting off topic lol. I guess if the character isn’t saying the wear what they wear to look hot it’s bad? Idk, it just always seems like to me in these situations it needs to be said upfront that they pick what they wear, but then I hear stuff like “They don’t really, there fictional, the artist picks what they wear” yet for some reason that doesn’t go both ways.
Ialso think it’s safe to say, everyone like Rex, let’s be honest, morag admires him to a degree, and I think zeck almost saw him like a bother he had. And the three that like him romantically being Nia pyra mythra, they did it so well, most of the time I see female characters getting waterdown once they get a love interest, the protagonist usually saves them all the time, they need them for everything, but Nia had a confession scene, that also added to her character, and it told you what you needed to know, she loves him, however, this didn’t stop her from being, well, stronger then Rex, and nia still acted like Nia, it was great!
Same went for pyra and mythra, when they go to the village they hint at it, the whole time, nia even teases Rex about this later, but none of it is really, drawn out as such, pyra went to rexes parents grave, because it mattered to him so it mattered to her, and phrased love for Rex, and Rexes love for pyra is shown in there actions, and even then Rex was still doing everything he did, because he promised her, Rex is just a like able person, sorry I’m going on a bit of a rant here, but what I’m trying to say, is that, the way they display the female characters, are so great, the whole time, through the whole game, they still talked to each other like friends! The characters weren’t butchered for the sake of giving the main character a love interest, they give him that, but, they kept the characters on track, they never fell off and I agree, it’s mostly just a split personality, mythra said as much, I think
I knew it! Thank you, I thought as much! It just annoys me to see people say it’s just a giant hentai game, or the characters are just hentai characters, like tell me you haven’t played xenoblade without telling me you haven’t played xenoblade, because that statement is so crazy to me.
@Sunsy Thanks as well! I'm looking forward to it, though it'll have to be the later showing (7 PM) since I intend to go home, exercise, and eat beforehand. Might still buy some water or something at the theater though. Sounds like a pretty cool cake; what flavor was it?
@Eagly Hope you had a nice break. Internet breaks are necessary now and then.
Do you know what else the Switch has? ARMS! I don't really mind the Switch's graphics, though I don't own a PS5 and don't have a TV capable of outputting more than 1080p RN. I actually want to build a gaming PC, but with an upcoming big purchase (or a series of them) I might be pushing that back a bit. In terms of console cycles though, the Switch is certainly getting on in age. It's approaching retirement, but probably a late one. XD
I very rarely preorder a game outside of certain scenarios and special editions, not to mention release day shipping where I live isn't reliable. That said, I do want to secure a copy day one and am curious about the GameStop Zonai carving extra...even if it is a "glorified cutting board" lol. I'll take some exotic swag. I was sold on the fusion and ascend mechanics, though I'm sure there's a lot more we haven't seen yet.
In a way, those traits make both Shulk and Rex seem more human and, thus, relatable. TBH for the most part I'm sick of heroes being some sort of blameless paragon who can do no wrong, because that isn't how human nature operates. The Poppi hug was unexpected but welcome and wholesome; IMO she becomes more "human" as XC2's story arc continues after her activation (even if I did find the maid bit cringe and unnecessary). I don't usually bother with superbosses since that often requires a lot of grinding, which I'm not really a fan of doing just for the sake of it. I think I'll just revisit the XC3 post-game when I get the DLC vs. starting a new file...at least at that time.
Currently playing: Pokemon Scarlet DLC, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury (Switch)
@Eagly I’m going to respond in full but I found the article I was talking about! It was about hungrybox, because he had a thumbnail zoomed in on there chest, and it went from him, to talking about sexism in the smash community, and pyra and mythra seem to be there bases, and blame fanart for, some reason? Even tho I can’t find one community that doesn’t have risky fanart, and claiming people would be mad if the dlc fighter wasn’t a wifue, which is dishonest. However I will let you read the article for yourself, if you want, and form your own opinion, it’s not nearly as bad as I remember, and it’s not like I disagree with the points, but I kinda disagree with some of them. https://www.invenglobal.com/articles/13332/i-shouldnt-encoura...
Played Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3 today. Honestly, I'm loving this game. I didn't look into it much, I noticed Nintendo Life gave it a 5/10, and I disagree with that. This whole game just feels like a love letter to Nickelodeon. There's stuff from Nick's past and present, and I'm having fun with the racing, and the online play is surprisingly smooth, my friend and I didn't experience lag.
I started playing with Jimmy Neutron, but I'm starting to main Lincoln Loud, despite never seeing any Loud House episodes. I have no way to watch the show, so I may check out the movie on Netflix sometime.
@Eagly Alrighty. If there is one on that is also on Switch you could try, it's Star Wars Episode 1: Racer. I have it for N64 and more recently PC, it's pretty fun. Actually played the PC version last month via LAN multiplayer with my friend.
Ok, while I'm not familiar with Megamind, I wouldn't be surprised if DreamWorks made nods to the movie. They did that with the Trolls cartoons, they mention moments from the movies. (Spoiler is for Trolls: The Beat Goes On and the movie Trolls) For example, in Trolls: The Beat Goes On, Poppy gives Branch a plushie that she found in the tunnels they escaped Bergen town from, a plushie that Branch lost during the escape.
@Tyranexx Enjoy it, stay for after the credits, don't leave too soon. I remember seeing this site mention it in a news headline, friend and I stayed and was not disappointed at all. It was yellow cake with strawberries in the middle.
Somebody help me make @Owl1 laugh please! I’m going to lose them!
@Eagly I will do that happily! Give me a day or two!
Owl house had everything it Needed to be a long and heathy series, the fact that they compacted the ideas into hour specials are vary, vary impressive, they probably would have had at least three more seasons.
Nintendo are like woman, You love them for whats on the inside, not the outside…you know what I mean! Luzlane best girl!
