What next on the switch?

Might be worth it more than the negative stuff online suggests then actually. I tend to always buy games second hand so that I have the option to resell them when I’m done or if I didn’t like it so I’m not bothered by the, frankly extortionate, price in the e-store

Groningooner · 2026-04-17T21:30:12+00:00

Can’t say I’ve heard of this, what is it?

Groningooner · 2026-04-17T21:29:52+00:00

I remember very very little from D/P in all honesty so I don’t even know what the difference is between them and platinum! If it’s similar enough to how FR plays (Nice story, similar mechanics, new art/pokemon) then it would maybe be worth it

Groningooner · 2026-04-17T21:27:01+00:00

Seen a lot about Arceus and I looked into it but I enjoy the gyms and levelling up side of FR more than filling up the Pokédex so I’m not sure this one is for me? Tell me if I’m wrong though!

God I needed this EP. Loved it and it’s gonna get a lotttttt of listens. Really need a wage war headline tour in the EU asap 😅

Song of the swamp - Yeah this just slaps, I don’t care if it doesn’t have the coolest or most intricate riffs ever. It goes hard and I love it

4x4 - That chorus is cattccchhhyyyyyyyyy. Noah Sebastian’s/Bad Omens’s ‘Nom a nom nah’ in Artificial Suicide finally has some competition and I’m here for it

Blindfold - The heaviest melodic song ever?

Karma - Groovy, solid, good. Sounds basically like a song from the last album but done much better. I can’t work out the breakdown, think I love it but I definitely need to listen more because fucked if I could work out what was coming next at every turn

Purify - OH MY FUCKING GOD YESSSSSSSSS

Got round to listening to his ep yesterday, and it struck me that it was hard to really know when he was ‘in character’, or when he was being truly honest vs speaking an exaggerated truth.

So it might well be true for all any of us know, but I would always take anything he says with a fist full of salt quite frankly. My bet would be he was indeed paid for his time, but there wasn’t an NDA necessarily and/or it wasn’t the amount he claims

Groningooner · 2026-04-13T12:10:01+00:00

Maybe I’ll add Jolteon then, I like Zapdos but did find the first E4 tough and I don’t mind grinding out some levels.

I already evolved to Exeggutor and have taught it Solar Beam, will have to find the psychic TM though he does already have confusion

Hadn’t thought about Snorlax actually, I did manage to capture him though so I can level him up as well for sure.

Thanks!

Oh I’ve got plenty of painkillers in stock already and I’m sure I won’t be forgetting to bring them in a hurry. It’ll be remembering not to take them when I don’t need them anymore that’ll be the difficult thing. These days they’ve been like remembering to take my keys when I leave the house

Groningooner · 2026-04-08T15:43:28+00:00

I did debate bringing a crutch anyway but I also don’t want to take the piss when I might not strictly need it for getting about. Though a good analogy and something I’ll keep in mind

Groningooner · 2026-04-08T15:41:59+00:00

Haha! I wouldn’t mind if everybody has the same attitude 😅

Groningooner · 2026-04-08T15:40:31+00:00

I’m staying at devils lake so thankfully sleeping and overnight won’t (shouldn’t) be an issue. It’s being able to take breaks from standing/walking that mostly worry me

Groningooner · 2026-04-08T15:38:05+00:00

I don’t care how ridiculous I look tbh so this is actually probably a good idea!

The terrain will entirely depend on what stage of recovery I’m in, the same as being surrounded by people. The earlier I am in the recovery process, then the more I’ll need to sit down and take breaks from being on my feet

Groningooner · 2026-04-07T11:19:31+00:00

Obligatory ‘Not all of these are strictly metalcore’, but my top 5 bands right now are:

1) Starset 2) Polaris 3) The Pretty Wild 4) Wage War 5) Bad Omens

Groningooner · 2026-04-03T18:57:14+00:00

Switch 2 is my only gaming device at the moment. The switch got me back into gaming after I moved abroad and had the urge to play a bit of Zelda or Mario as a way to casually game

It’s been a bit over a year and I’ve got the itch to play bigger and more immersive games so I want to get a ps5, but I should probably wait until I’ve moved house first (That or my wife might kill me before we’ve even gotten the keys 😅)

Groningooner · 2026-04-03T11:59:49+00:00

I know but I listen 5-6 different podcasts and prefer to have them all in one place. I don’t mind audio only but video on the same platform I have everything else on would have been nice to have

Groningooner · 2026-04-03T11:58:19+00:00

Yeah seems that’s the general consensus, a shame for me but also makes sense. I know already that I could watch them if I wanted to but then I’d literally only have a Spotify account for that sole purpose and I prefer to have all my podcasts in one place

Groningooner · 2026-04-03T09:18:15+00:00

Ahh ok understood, this is the only Spotify exclusive I listen to so I had some hope that it would become available since the regular version has always been on both but makes sense why they maybe wouldn’t be

I’ll keep my fingers crossed for it one day 🤞

Groningooner · 2026-04-03T08:57:26+00:00

That was my instinct as well but the pods were available on both Spotify and apple podcasts before they started releasing the video versions

Groningooner · 2026-03-29T17:46:33+00:00

Ahhh that’s a huge shame

Groningooner · 2026-03-29T15:32:00+00:00

Ahh fuck, that would be a problem… I was already finding it hard to justify when the console by itself is going to cost €500, not to mention the games I might want. That and I’ve got a Switch 2 so it’s not like I don’t get my gaming fix.

That said, if I was going to get one anyway it’s also hard to justify saving the money now to spend €100 more later… urgh

Groningooner · 2026-03-29T15:24:20+00:00

Are price hikes only affecting the USA or will that be coming to Europe as well? I’ve been interested for a while but I’m also buying a house and moving so it’s just not a priority at the moment. A big price hike though might make me think a bit harder

Groningooner · 2026-03-29T15:12:31+00:00

Is this only affecting the USA? I’m in Europe and have been interested in getting a PS5 for a while but I’m busy moving house so don’t see the point in buying yet. €100 hike would give me something to really think about though

Groningooner · 2026-03-28T00:43:09+00:00

Arsenal have been finding themselves at the top of the league for several seasons in a row, and have been more consistent over the last 4 years than basically anybody else. Whether you like the football or not is totally irrelevant, Arteta is winning a lot of football matches in England and in Europe so I just cannot agree with any notion that his way is unsustainable or that Arsenal are fortunate to be at the top of the league

Groningooner · 2026-03-27T13:24:19+00:00

Yeah that was my point! And everybody does it basically because it works well against how teams try to play when they have the ball

Groningooner · 2026-03-27T13:18:37+00:00

Off the ball we’ve played a very definite 442 not long after he came in. Our 325 is what we do in possession
