@ibis_87 I have never heard anyone say Stardew Valley was overwhelming before. What aspects were you struggling with? You should try it again on the switch and not iOS.
It reminds me of the episode of The Simpsons where Homer is allowed to design his own car. Homer thinks he knows what he wants, and he thinks he knows how to design automobiles. It turns out to be a monstrosity and a mish mash of random ideas.
People think they know how to make movies. People should see finished films and rather like them or hate them. I don’t think a general movie goer should have any say in the creative process, and they definitely shouldn’t be able to whine until they get their way because it’s how they imagined the character.
@Arehexes I know, my Skarmory and Torterra will be benched no doubt as people forget they exist. haha. Also, my dream to have an all turtle squad was almost realized with Drednaw. It would have been glorious!
I guess this will keep the 3ds games relevant for Living Dex completionists and shiny hunters. I am a little bummed, but I am sure the game will be lovely.
I am a little bummed. I rush through the "story" of Pokemon games to get to my favorite part, which is completing the dex. I have a nearly complete Living Dex (about 35 shy of having them ALL, haha), and losing the ability to bring all or any of them into the new game has deflated my excitement a great deal. Being able to form a strong end game team from any of my past, present, of future pokemon, is the biggest strength the series has!
I will still play the games, and not preach doom and gloom for the series just yet. I suppose Pokemon Home will become my glorified trophy room/prison.
This is how modern companies conduct business. It is not centralized to the video game industry. I work in film and television, and UNPAID interns are hired with no actual intention of hire all the time. 12 hour days, unpaid. It has become a part of these industries bottom line.
I remember entering a contest for the gold variant of this cart when I was a kid in Nintendo Power. As always, I didn't win haha. There is roughly 90 grey carts, and only 26 gold carts. Would have been great to add to my collection, thats for sure.
@MisterDevil To play an opening cut scene, make a new event and a trigger. In the event select the trigger, and under the column where it says, When? You would select at the start of the match. Under the description of what happens, select play cut scene.
For the end scene, just tack on play cut scene after your win condition. So once the condition is met, add on play cut scene. Does that make sense?
@coolaggro The pikeman rush is a little out of control in pvp. Was talking with some people and everyone agrees, make the dogs 50 gold less, and do more damage to pikemen would be a good counter balance.
@Evilworm I get what you are saying. I play a lot of indies, and have picked up a few of the ports along the way. I have kept very busy with the Switch, but for someone who is expecting block busters like Metroid Prime 4, Zelda, etc non stop on the console, you are going to be disappointed. That's just not how they operate. Call is lazy, or what you will, their strategy is paying off.
Yes they focused heavy on Smash, but it paid off for them. They gambled on a nearly sure bet and won. At the end of the day, do they want you as a fan? Or do they want 2.5 million Japanes e people as fans. They can't make everyone happy, and they go where they will make the most money.
@rjejr Levels have to be longer than 15 minutes, but shorter than 60 minutes. Also not too pixelated, and also the name of the game can't sound like anything else. Also...it has to be on sale. haha. Man you're picky haha.
@Lando_ When the PS4 is selling well it is because it is deserved... But when the Switch is selling well it's people following the herd because they are sheep? haha. All because it doesn't align with your opinion of what constitutes good video games haha. Let me guess, I need to get red pilled?
I find it funny that we can all accept Greek gods in video games depicted in all manners, but when Christian or Catholic faith is mentioned people lose their minds. The only reason you are upset seeing Jesus in a video game, and not Zeus is because the Greek gods fell out of favor.
The Greek gods were worshiped in full until Rome was converted to Christianity for purely political reasons. If Constantine the Great had not come along, this would not even be a discussion.
I can't believe people still believe this junk is true.
So Facebook can allow ads and speech that helped incite a genocide in Myanmar, and give my personal messages to my bank (this happened in Canada this week), but god help us all if there is a cartoon butt in my targeted ads.

Re: Chucklefish Outlines Upcoming Quality Of Life And Community Feedback Patch For Wargroove
@MisterDevil Good luck, it can be a little confusing at first, but the the system is well designed.

Re: Japanese Charts: New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe Knocked Off Top Spot In Its Second Week
@Lando_ It's funny because I have both a Switch and a PS4 and I love them both. Both deserve high praise. Both deliver a unique experience.
I am not so blinded by fanboyism that I can't comprehend why the PS4 is so loved. It's a fantastic console, but I play both consoles equally.
I would never call PS4 owners sheep. And I would never discredit the Switchs success. It's a good time to be a gamer.
Re: Switch Network Maintenance Could Impact Online Gaming This Week, 3DS And Wii U Also Affected
@subpopz I also rarely get lag in Smash. Smooth as butter.
Re: Video: Watch The Nintendo Indie Highlights Presentation January 2019
