@Dom_31 The randomness was the whole thing though. And it was authentic to the Oregon Trail itself. What's even the challenge if they got rid of the randomness
Cubone! He's been my favorite since I was 4 and I have no idea why. I'm not a big fan of the skull and crossbones aesthetic, I don't resonate with the lost mom lore, and I never watched the early anime episode with Cubone in it. My best guess is that I fell in love with the original card art. Cubone on a cliff, looking up at the stars.
I guess it just mirrors my modern music tastes, where I love depressing songs, not because they resonate with me, but because I like how they sound.
Pokémon Yellow! I couldn't quite read yet at 4, but I would use my brother's cartridge to play without saving. Never even got to Brock! (And then because I couldn't read, I didn't know the PC would save the game. Sorry bro!)
My whole life, I've wanted a horse game was wasn't a "game for girlz!" shovelware. This looks a little rough, but it also looks like it wasn't made for 10 year olds, so I am very intrigued
That hair is uh... Interesting. I wish we could return to when the main lord wasn't a player avatar. At least with Byleth, their lack of personality was a literal plot point.
I got utterly burned on SuMo, skipped USUM, SwSh, got BDSP, got burned again, skipped Arceus. I want it to be good. I still love Pokémon. Heck, I've been running randomizers and nuzlockes in gen 1-3, but I feel... Unloved by gamefreak.
I've had the base Switch for five years now, and the battery is doing surprisingly well. Definitely vetter then my DS or 3DS were doing at this point. Besides the joycon, the Switch itself seems to pretty hardy.
I had really wanted to get into the first Xeboblade, but after seeing how utterly ridiculous the next two games are about all this garbage, it's really put me off playing any of them.
@Silly_G I imagine the literal translation was him saying something like "I said", but in a casual form of speech, which lead to the translators using a more casual phrase. Pretty common for translating
@Wordbonder Yeah, it stinks that this indie dev will have their work overshadowed by the scams and greed of their publisher, but his game looks cute, it's nicely priced, and it looks like there's been a lot of love put into it.
I wish U had the money to upgrade whenever; ne became avaliable, but I only ever replace electronics when my previous one breaks or becomes frustrating to use. I di want them to release another version for whenever that happens though
I just don't get why we don't have GBC and GBA yet. It's been five years! I wanted to play through the Metroid series, and there was no legit way to play through Fusion. Not one. Closest way was if I bought a WiiU, which is an old console at this point!
There have been times that courage was yellow/gold instead of green, eg Phantom Hourglass. But it is on the back of his dominant hand, so I'm leaning toward Triforce
No no, see, Link's arm was blasted off by an alchemist, and Link's brother sacrificed his own arm to save him, leaving him with the power of deconstruction.
I believe they did say that the name hasn't been revealed becayse it's a spoiler, so I could see it being something like this, but this one doesn't sound very "Zelda-y"
I only preorder after reviews come out, or if I 100% know I'm going to like a game, like Smash Bros or a mainline Zelda game. I never preorder any other or third party games before reviews come out at the very least. Kind of a have my cake and eat it too
I'm thinking about it. Pre-pandemic, I would constantly bring my party game filled Switch to gatherings with friends, but we didn't often touch Mario Kart. So I'm intrigued, but I don't know if it'd get any use. And I don't have the expansion pass because it's still a ripoff
@Gofixmeaplate Holy crud that's stupid. Arceus is one of the 15 or so Pokemon I'm missing from my living dex, but if it's just going to be like this, I'd rather have a hacked one

Re: Talking Point: What Does Your Favourite Pokémon Say About You?

Re: Poll: So, How Do You Pronounce 'Live A Live'?
Live-alive flows nicely to an English ear, and it makes sense. Only other way I wpuld think is "Live a Life", which may be too on the nose, squareenix

Re: Hear The Blue Lions Roar In New Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes Trailer

Re: Yuji Naka Was Removed As Balan Wonderworld Director, Filed Lawsuit Against Square Enix
