I mean, I did ask if that was the joke, so I don’t think it was necessary to be snarky.

How dare you?  We have to make sure those millionaire shareholders can feed their family :(

Except Nintendo. They care about bringing out complete and stable games.  Scarlet and Violet don’t count because that would tank my defense.  Also it was developed by GameFreak who has a history of being terrible at optimizing their Pokemon games since the end of the DS generation.

Oh a discount to what the price should have been originally?  How generous.

Is it confirmed that there are Koroks again?  That would be delightful, actually. I didn’t mind them too much, but I am hoping there was a partial Korok genocide between the first and second games, because there were just WAYYY too many of those little guys.

Original XCOM?  Like the 1994 one?  

I can’t tell if the 50 years thing is a joke about how sea levels are rising and the oceanfront property will be pretty much destroyed by that.  Or if I’m missing another potential joke.

What I learned is that my friend is a filthy little pirate.  When he said he was playing the new game, I was like, “No...?”  I honestly am so naive that I didn’t think it would be available on the high seas already.  And yet, here we are.  I did watch him play a little.  I won’t spoil anything, but as someone that was…

Donkey Kong Country’s water levels, I think, tend to be very good. And there’s one in Tropical Freeze that is amazing, and that is most definitely helped by David Wise’s outstanding music (as he always has).

“The music is low-key amazing.”

Sure, but murk is still valid for what I’m saying. I’ve actually never seen it spelled as Merc, but that makes sense. Look “murk” up on Urban Dictionary, though! It corroborates my spelling.

“Murk” is slang for “kill.”

I don’t have either one in my state :’(

That Taco Bell example pretty much confirms your suspicion about home cooking affecting your taste.  Not the worst issue to have, honestly?

McDonald’s fries are my favorite of all the big fast food establishments.  Wendy’s used to be my favorite, but they changed their recipe, and now I just can’t stand them.  They’re bottom tier for me now.  I truly, truly hate them.  I have yet to find any fries that taste the same as the old Wendy’s fries.  If anyone…

At this point, after waiting so long already, I’m wondering if I should wait for a potential PS5 Pro.  The performance I’ve heard about some games in this new generation of consoles is honestly shocking.  It seems like it all went super well at first, but now that we’re more than a couple years in, games are getting…

Pre-ordered, but you could always cancel it.  So.... 

I like it better than Linka, Linkette, Linkess, and Linkina.  But it’s one of those “lesser of 5 evils” kind of deals.  It’s not great.

I don’t want to watch any trailers in order to be surprised. But to hear something about building vehicles and terrible fps is giving me flashbacks to Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts. That game was, I think, very underrated. As a Banjo-Kazooie game, I can see how people were miffed. But I still thought it had the same…
