I’ve been wanting a 2D Mario to break from the on-model NSMB look for years now, so needless to say, the Wonder trailer was a great time for me. 

I’m guessing we’ll get battle cries and exclamations for taking damage, etc, but no real voice acting. 

Star Ocean 2 R looks GREAT, hopefully they can port First Departure R to PC before it comes out (SO2R also coming to PS4/PS5/PC).

I am REALLY happy that SMB:Wonder looks to have its own aesthetic and artistic flourishes and isn’t just the on-model, boring New SMB style again. Mario with the cartoony running legs, and…

They’re unlockable via in-game currencies now.

Don’t worry, they’ll come out with a classic edition GBA that you can use with the Gamecube Adapter and GBA-GCN link cables on the Switch.

...they won’t re-release the GBA-GCN link cables though.

I’d love to have an extra skill bar as a sorceress. I have so many skills that I have points in because of equipment, and can’t possibly slot them all in to play with them. D2 at least let me use key bindings to switch my slotted skill, so I could technically swap between any of them as needed.

Just have a swap or…

If tradition holds, they should just make item duplication a mechanic in the next Zelda game like how Ascend was originally a cheat that became a mechanic in TotK.

...or maybe I just want a sequel to Four Swords Adventures. 

I think a lot of these tech CEOs need to remember (or be reminded) that their products have no inherent value without the content produced by their users.

Reddit, Facebook, Twitter, Twitch, without people using them and creating the content for them, have no reason for people to visit, and thus nobody to datamine or…

To be fair, there was a much larger graphical jump between the PS2 and the PS3. I think long transitional periods are going to be the norm between generations now that hardware pipelines are pretty much set and we aren’t going to see radical power advances like the old console eras.

It’s going to be more akin to a PC ga…

I’m a lady who grew up with all the classic NES stuff, and loves herself some Fire Emblem, Assassin’s Creed, and lengthy JRPGs.

...I just don’t like competitive games where people start taking shit super seriously and would never willingly put myself in public voice chat, so to many of these guys, I more or less don’t…

I’ve done the Wind and Water Temples so far, and it feels a lot more like the older Zelda games as far as “you get *thing* that assists you in progression through this temple, but is also useful elsewhere, except in this case, *thing* is the sage accompanying you and not a random item in your inventory.

Tying those…

FFTA would be THE shit.

The Epic Games store is fine. Kind of. Maybe. I mean, it functions.... Mostly.

I’ve found in the past that browsing things related to a specific sale isn’t as easy as you might think it should be, and it has a lot of things to be desired as far as functionality. The real thing though, is that there is no compelling…

I think my favorite parts of the BotW/TotK Hyrule is that because it’s so expansive, the little unimportant details they add for the townspeople make it feel like a place and not just set-dressing for Link to slash bokoblins in.

Because all it will take is Markiplier saying “Oh hey, I’m Markiplier, you may have heard of me, here’s proof” for Discord to be “Oh, ok” and just assign him the account name and then slap the person who tried to use it instead.

It’s not like we haven’t been through this same exact thing with domain names, and twitter…

I guess I don’t really see what the problem is to have a username like nearly every other website and service in existence does?

Like, if you’re a big enough presence to have to worry about someone impersonating you, you can almost guarantee that Discord will work with you to make sure they don’t. Some rando isn’t…

The Assassin’s Creed board game had to do something similar, but that was for shipping costs that more or less tripled from what they originally planned for in 2019 before ending up shipping in the middle of 2021. 

Yeah, I absolutely loved the rest of the game, and the anglerfish scenario is FINE when you’re doing it at your own pace and exploring, but sticking it in as a required part of a long sequence where screwing up means repeating the entire sequence again and again just got to be too much for me to deal with.

It’s wild…

Outer Wilds is one that I haven’t finished, despite knowing exactly what I need to do to finish the game, and have all the information necessary to finish the game, because of a stupid-ass section that requires me to be extremely careful in my movements and how much noise I’m making, otherwise it’s instant game-over,…

It’s going to come down to the interface. The best part of the Steam Deck is the SteamOS experience. Everything is easy to navigate and accomplish using the controls built into the device.

This is a Win 11 PC, sure, but how easy is it going to be to navigate and launch games without a keyboard and mouse? Does the ROG…
