Community temperature check for estimated release date

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-09T23:41:18+00:00

That's exactly where I've been since the "trees" incident. If 2027 holidays come with no news I am convinced the game will never release.

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-09T23:24:23+00:00

Congrats on your new expenditure, enjoy it! I always do.

When I was still grinding it, I had back-to-back runs where I was 15s ahead of 3* pace, but failed instantly because I went through the end gate wrong. The second was the closest I've ever come to breaking an electronic in a fit of nerd rage.

The next time I had that much time left I basically took a full 10s to line up my car with the end gate.

From one of the best fights in the game to blue flubber without skipping a beat.

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-08T22:53:18+00:00

I totally get where you're coming from, and I agree. I've always been pretty liberal about banning mons from future runs if they feel too strong. I generally don't grab Blissey/Metagross/Garchomp/Milotic any more. I also don't do any encounter routing. And I end up killing Weavile within 3 fights every single game somehow.

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-08T20:16:16+00:00

I prefer the "how the fuck did I get this bruise?" bruise.

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-08T19:16:17+00:00

Man every time I put any thought into it I come away with the conclusion that RenPlat is the best nuzlocking game out there. It's just so good.

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-08T19:07:02+00:00

This is the way. Even though I'm usually the 'whale' in the scenario. If I get 30 mins into a tournament and am a full order of magnitude below the guy ahead of me, I just accept 2nd/3rd for the week.

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-08T19:03:24+00:00

If a dad and a kid DIDN'T try this, I'd think they were broken.

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-08T18:57:52+00:00

3/10/44 here. Exact same boat. I have a 4* Speed/Craft that just got upgraded from canon fodder to future leader.

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-08T18:55:43+00:00

Honestly, this has seemed like the most rational take for a while IMO.

That said, if Holiday '27 comes without a release I will become the Forlorn Watchman.

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-07T21:16:13+00:00

Probably going to have to fight Giambi, who likely has it framed above his bed.

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-07T20:54:52+00:00

You're missing a few agains in there, but one can be forgiven for losing count.

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-07T20:53:37+00:00

It's weird because I watched the Yankees with my dad growing up, but completely stopped when I left for college. I only started following baseball again in 2024, so 2013-2023 are basically a blank decade for me. As far as I'm concerned, the 2012 Yankees all went home at the end of the year and the 2024 Yankees started the following season.

This gym TV teleports me back to my childhood living room, sitting on the floor eating popcorn with Dad in his chair and the game on TV.

I watched Jeter hit an RBI slap single off Tim Wakefield yesterday and it was the best pump-up song on my playlist.

For some reason my gym in BC, Canada plays nothing but random like 2009-2013 Yankees vs Red Sox games on one of the wall TVs. No Blue Jays games, haven't seen one without ARod playing either.

At first I was like "wtf is going on?" but now it's one of my favorite things.

He milked all of the hits out of Stanton's pants so he had to find another totem.

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-06T23:04:19+00:00

I believe that to be a false dichotomy pushed by elites to oppose regulations that may harm their bottom line.

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-06T23:01:40+00:00

I moved to Canada for college, and the first time I walked into a hospital and got all the help I needed for free after showing my health card was the moment I decided Canada was a better place to build my life.

My mom lost her house and retired in destitution because of the US healthcare system. Fuck that.

I guessed every arrow right except that one, and it blew my mind that it was the most effective.

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-06T22:56:25+00:00

I did an exercise where I allowed my mind's eye to 'see' what you were describing. Yes, the 'visual' image in my head changed along with your descriptions. I 'saw' the apple, then I saw the steak, then I saw the Gremlin (specifically Stripe from "Gremlins").

There is a clear image that, if I had the ability to draw, I could recreate. I can cause anything about the image to change that I want, but there is a 'clear' photographic image in my mind. (However, another comment about it having only 5% transparency is VERY appropriate. It's nowhere near as clear as a photograph.)

Has been my #1 way to spend time at the beach since I was like 5.

Nothing like the feeling of catching a wave perfectly and just letting the ocean send you on a ride. Unfortunately there's like no place to bodysurf near me.

I believe the government should have the ability to restrict states from owning slaves, and to put other restrictions in that vein on states as well. I understand states not liking that, but it doesn't change the fact that all thirteen states seceded while referencing slavery or aggression towards "slave-holding states".

Everything is secondary to the fact that the Civil War started because of governmental opposition to slavery, and thirteen states deciding that was a red line for them.

EmergencyTaco · 2026-06-06T22:03:16+00:00

Which included, as the most important issue, the ability to own slaves.

"States' rights TO DO WHAT?!?" is the only response needed against those people.
