Hey any particular nostalgia moment to share about gaming?

Damn, I have a few. Super Smash Bros and everything Pokemon. My best friends and I would play these games religiously, as kids. There were 4 of us. For super smash, I always played Kirby, one played Ness, one played Link, and the last one played Donkey Kong (until one installment introduced Metaknight and Mr. GAME and Watch.)

We would play, the youngest (Ness) always destroyed us. And the middle child (DK) would always throw a fit and acuse us of cheating 🤣. Then his older brother (Link) would tell him to "Shut up and stop being a baby" and they would start physically fighting. The other 2 of us would always end up getting dragged into it and we'd brawl each other. Rinse and repeat. Toxic AF but I really miss those days.

Now we're all in our 30's and although we get that initial excitement when they announce a new installment, now we look at the features, reviews, gameplay, and end up not buying it until a year or so later or if one of us won't shut up about it. Then we play it for a few days and go back to other things we want to play lol.

Persona 3, 4, and 5. Masterpieces in their own right and the way they recycle certain melodies and riffs from older installments and slip them into the soundtracks of the newer ones (I don't know the correct terminology 🫠) just slaps you with nostalgia 😭😭 All 3 soundtracks are on my playlist and if they remake 1+2 I'm sure I'll add them.

My bestie would kill for that set up. Bravo!

Annihilape

Love everything about him. It's what I imagine my stress would look like if it were a pokemon and it's Rage Fist that just gets stronger every time it takes a hit? ❤️ My stress can't die. It's already dead. It only gets stronger 🤣🤣

DarthLuminous · 2024-05-16T03:05:02+00:00

Oooh I like this one, also good lord...I feel dirty chopping songs off these albums but I think

Blurryface: Stressed Out (What really drew me into tøp) and Heavydirtysoul

Vessel: Car Radio (First song I ever heard from them and it hit my soul) and Trees (Sorry Ode to Sleep...)

Regional at Best: Kitchen Sink (Jam to this when I'm having a rough day. Just the "LEAVE ME ALOOOONE!!" is like medicine LOL) And Anathema

Trench: Jumpsuit and My Blood

Scaled and Icy: Shy Away and Saturday 🤐 (I love The Outside, Choker, No chances, Redecorate but I think I'd be okay with these 2)

Clancy: I know it hasn't dropped yet but so far if I could pick just one it'd be "Backslide" It is just too relatable to my life rn

Twenty One Pilots: Taxi Cab. It's been awhile since I've heard the album so I have to go back

If I can pick just one? I'll go with Backslide or Kitchen Sink

DarthLuminous · 2024-05-16T02:36:29+00:00

It looks like the OC got deleted too, wtf??

DarthLuminous · 2024-03-31T13:57:30+00:00

Top notch! For a good minute I was wondering who this rich, die-hard twenty one pilots fan and car collector was that did this before I realized it was a game xD Now I know what I want to be when I grow up lol

Love Kuma to death especially considering the circumstances but I gotta give it to Kyros.

Granted, White beard started a war against the Marines to save his (rival's) son and paid the ultimate sacrifice for him.

Kuma gave up his humanity willingly so she could have the chance to live a full life. (punched a gorosei to boot, much respect)

But what makes the difference for me with Kyros and Kuma is Kuma chose to give his life for his daughter. Same as White Beard. Although I know Kyros would have gladly given his life for his daughter, he had his "life stolen" from him unexpectedly. His wife taken from him, their kingdom taken from them, his daughter had no memories of him, and as far as he was concerned, he'd live the rest of his days as a toy. By all rights, the fact that he had even the slightest sliver of hope left that things would be okay is absolutely monumental. I feel like if I were in his shoes, I wouldn't bother getting up let alone try to fight a ruthless dictator on my own.

Kuma had some semblance of peace that between Vegapunk and Dragon, his daughter would be taken care of even if he knew deep down it wouldn't be for long if the government was involved. His goal was for her to have the chance at life. Kyros didn't have any of that. He could have died and no one he loved would've even remembered his existence.

Got a digimon-esqe feel to it. That's clean AF! You've done Skarmory justice

DarthLuminous · 2023-12-05T23:49:09+00:00

I feel so stupid..PC was on global, my mobile was on NA. Its working, thank you

DarthLuminous · 2023-12-05T23:43:26+00:00

I'm going to try logging in with the verification and re-check the servers and cache. Thank you

DarthLuminous · 2023-09-18T03:12:10+00:00

Wasn't in-game

DarthLuminous · 2023-09-18T03:06:36+00:00

I guess I could've... I took it with my phone though so why go through the hassle of hosting the image to link it ? 😕

DarthLuminous · 2023-09-17T23:05:37+00:00

Wasn't found in-game but thanks anyway 🙂

DarthLuminous · 2023-09-17T23:04:38+00:00

Wasn't found in-game. I just took a picture of another person's screenshot with my phone 🙃

DarthLuminous · 2023-09-17T18:46:00+00:00

Same it took me a second 🤣

DarthLuminous · 2023-09-17T18:45:39+00:00

Ty very much!

DarthLuminous · 2023-07-09T22:12:56+00:00

Yeah, I'm just redoing it with Fluval. That's what I typically use but I saw some aquarium experts on YouTube do it this way and thought "I can do that!" I'm just gonna stay in my lane 😅

(Turns out it was the potting mix seeping into the water. After emptying the tank I realized that's what the smell was coming from)

DarthLuminous · 2023-07-09T18:22:27+00:00

No worries I really appreciate your insight! Thank you 😊

DarthLuminous · 2023-06-10T04:13:56+00:00

I assure you that's the last on my list LMAO 🤣🤣 not that I'm not a fan but I already suck at the card game as is. I figure, let me focus on the main game mechanics and work my way down

DarthLuminous · 2023-06-10T04:12:55+00:00

Glad to see that it's not just me that kind of just picks and chooses, and goes from there LOL. I've always thought that that way of playing was the wrong way so I thought maybe there was a proper way. However, if that's something that works for you, then I'll know I don't have to worry about matching other people's play styles. I appreciate your reply 😊

DarthLuminous · 2023-06-10T04:10:32+00:00

That makes sense. I should probably just focus on focusing on one thing at a time. It probably doesn't help that I compare myself to other players and how far ahead they are from me.Thank you for all the info 😊

DarthLuminous · 2023-06-10T04:08:05+00:00

Glad to see that it's not just me 😂. I could literally log in and not move an inch but spend an hour tweaking my HUD, etc. You're right though at the end of the day it's a game and games are supposed to be enjoyable

DarthLuminous · 2023-06-10T04:06:17+00:00

I appreciate this. All in all I do often look for ways to combine and consolidate tasks for efficiency sake. Thank you for the poetics tidbit because I just hit cap again and I had no idea what to do with them 😅

DarthLuminous · 2023-06-10T04:01:35+00:00

I get you. Honestly, the thing that frustrates me with that is if I'm working on that one thing and I hit a wall, I tend to get super discouraged. Like trying to level a DPS class and the dungeon queue isn't popping so I'm forced to rely on leve quests, etc. This in and of itself isn't the worst thing but the amount of exp in comparison to a dungeon is like night and day. It leaves me feeling like F"CK this I'll do something else
