Topic: The Chit-Chat Thread

@NeonPizza You are definitely just old school

My experience with the "modern" consoles is the exact opposite

The only thing I do not like about the PS5 is how HUGE it is. Other than that, it is fine.

The worst Sony console is the PS3, hands down! Everything about it is a mistake

@HenryKibble those videos are made for people around the 16 to 17+ age kinda inbetween, maybe not smg4 but murder drones and Digital circus, those are there demographics they said as much, so no your not because if they wanted to do so why shouldn’t you have a specific demographic you want to cater too? Answer you should or could, don’t have to but if you want to you’re free to do so, adventure time grew up with there’s.

@EaglyBird Aw I think you’re good. It’s alright to vent a little once in a while! I don’t mind it personally.

@Kermit1 Wait really, tell us the full story!

@Snatcher I watch a lot of “Spidey and his Amazing Friends”, “Alice’s Wonderland Bakery” and “Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures” on Disney Junior. And on Netflix I’ve been binging on “Starbeam” and “Ridley Jones”.

@HenryKibble And see, all those shows were made by someone that had a to target an audience. Sonic that’s what you wanna do you should, that’s where creativity comes from.

@Kermit1
You’ll play the Switch version and you will like it!

@EaglyBird
That’s personally what I expected. But considering not everyone is like me and hates school with a passion, the amount of hoops colleges put you through has to be even more frustrating for someone who wants to be there.

Maybe it’s my brain that’s the problem.

@blindsquarel 30fps oof

@Snatcher Well, I was at Fiery Path and walking like any regular trainer, and "poof" shiny Machop popped up and scared the heck out of me.

@Kermit1
That’s unheard of for us 3ds edition players.

@HenryKibble It’s not don’t worry lol.

@Kermit1 Man why can’t I get that lucky! All I want is one shiny hatterene! I’m happy for you! Man thinking about Pokémon makes remember how much I really like the franchise.

@blindsquarel one thing I feel like I should say, I know how excited you were for the launch and how you enjoy the game. I wasn't trying to spoil you or anyone's fun, I actually firmly believe that video games, or any other forms of entertainment are to be enjoyed by everyone the way they want to. In the past I was often bullied and bashed for liking video games, and I hated the fact that people would say that my hobby is worthless/useless/waste of time just because they enjoyed something else.

I started enjoying video games before the major western AAA titles became what they are today. I enjoyed Spyro and Ratchet from Insomniac, I loved the 90s and 00s games, but over time, I started feeling like they were lacking. That I wasn't enjoying them as much as I used to, and that playing new titles started feeling like I was actually wasting my time. It started in 2009 - 2010 I believe. It was when the market settled and the idea of a western AAA was solidified.

The one thing I remember is playing Assassin's Creed in Rome (don't remember the title) and getting sick of it. And then I tried Revelations and it felt like a chore. It didn't feel like fun anymore. the games the West produced were not good anymore. It was news to me because I still remembered Morrowind, Myst and some other fantastic games I played, some of them being older than me.

So I sometimes find myself saying the same thing I hated, I don't know why, I think it's subconscious. I end up trying to force something upon people by recommending them the same games knowing they would never play them because it's not their cup of tea. I said it yesterday, and even though it might sound empty, I'm working on it

@Kermit1 wooo congrats on the shiny machop!

@Moffo yeah he did one for a really fanservicey gatcha.

A gatcha is pretty much like those capsule machines, but instead of getting little toys you get characters. And gatcha I’m pretty sure is a Japanese capsule or prize game.

Decided it was a good idea to read the comments on this
https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2023/10/random-nintendo-pul...
Biggest mistake of my life, people were ignoring the fact that it was incorrectly rated and overall a bad game because apparantly GTA, which has an appropriate rating and such, was far worse somehow
Love how the chit-chat thread is so calm but the comments are just a battlefield

I would take that as a dare but I haven't played either games, and despite me having no plans to play them I don't want spoilers because I'm weird

@EaglyBird Dang Lilly just had an opinion and they all came after her (her?) that's messed up

I'm planning to get a PS5 next year.

Once I pay off my credit card next month (would've been sooner but I gave in and bought Super Mario Bros. Wonder so that's a couple more weeks added), my plan is to withdraw $20 from my bank account once a week and put it in my fireproof safe for a whole year (which at the end of 2024 will be $1,040)

@EaglyBird Yeah let's just stick to the chit-chat thread, much more peaceful

@EllaTheQueen6 to be fair I did present my point poorly.

This is the biggest factor in these threads/articles. I noticed that I had to explain to people MULTIPLE times that I put "For me, for myself, my experience" in most of my posts.

Otherwise, if you put information like that "Mario is better than Spider-Man" you will get angry people, but if you say "I get more enjoyment from a Mario game than from Spider-Man game" you clearly do not try to say it like it is a fact.
