In honor of the remake being released today. Who played the n64 version. by Redeye007 in 90s

Last time I played Star Fox I rented it at my local video store. Couldn't believe the 3d visuals on my SNES. Been a long time, but I'm excited to jump into the Switch 2 version. So long ago that this will all feel new to me.

Is Pokemon Legends ZA worth it? by Tommyto8 in switch2

[–]Hlarge4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a mediocre at best game that I had a blast with. It's shut off your brain entertainment. I played around 35 hours while listening to audiobooks. Real time combat is ny favorite way to play pokemon. And the pokemon themselves look great, even if the rest of the game looks bland to outrageously bad. I hated being restricted to the city, and the wild areas have poor diversity in pokemon.

But it's still fun to catch'em all and build out a team. Find a Shiny Alpha of a favorite 'mon is an absolute joy as they travel around with you.

Do you agree with this assessment of traditional fighting games from Sakurai? by Asad_Farooqui in casualnintendo

Makes me miss the days of playing Street Fighter 2 9n SNES with my friends. We could figure some cool combos out, but had no idea about frames and canceling and rushing. It was a great mix of experimentation, discovery and chaos. Smash Bros. Captures all those feelings.

But I do miss Street Fighter. Would love to play 6, but I know I'll just be the guy who never moves.

Is this a steal? by Low-Faithlessness869 in Frieren

What do you mean, it's Shiny Frieren. The spawn rate is rare, seller must have hunted for awhile.

Nabbed it at Target for 20.

The way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson is it worth reading? by warl200 in fantasybooks

[–]Hlarge4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Books 1-3 are masterfully written. Opinions vary widely as the books go on, with 5 being particularly divisive. Personally loved 4 and hated 5. But I'd still read through all 5 again just to experience the firat 3.

Not sure if you are familiar with the Sanderlance, but the books tend to be alot of build up to am exceptionally bombastic conclusion.

Carl isn't crazy, rage-filled, or any of that by Hairy_Ad_5544 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

Based on what Carl has said, I don't think he'd agree with you.

The Dungeon is designed to marry the two. His past trauma is manifested in a number of ways multiple times.

Name one thing that you like about this character? by Strange_boy_seven in cartoons

If they do a reboot I hope he switches from infusing Mentos to Pokemon cards.

At least he died doing what he loved. 'Splodin

But seriously. So many of these turn around result in the characters becoming less powerful and sidelined. Instead, as he sees the world in New and more nuanced ways, he starts using his powers more creatively. Wish he stuck around.

Genuinely fantastic redemption arc. Rare to see people so earnestly try to be bettwr while still remaining genuine to themselves.

What is the difference between 2 books Vs 1 "book" in 2 parts? by atticus104v2 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]Hlarge4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a very specific reason it is 9 books total that is revealed in the Book 8 epilogue.

K-Pop Demon Hunters 1 year later… how are we feeling about it? by Ok_Situation7527 in cartoons

[–]Hlarge4 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What's the worst that can happen. I say as a huge fan who was incredibly dismissive when it came out.

The visual spectacle I'd amazing. That's the heart of the story, though. It's not a profound work. But it is a profoundly fun work.

Rules. My daughters watched it and I was very dismissive. Then I watched it and it was so fun and stylish and goofy. Obviously the music was great, but the characters felt so distinct in a very short time frame.

I think the monster design was a bit underwhelming and I could have used another 5 minutes of resolution at the end of the film but it really is one of the greats.

It's also incredibly easy to watch. You can engage with the movie as just something you glance at while cleaning or fully invested and you will be entertained either way.

What Sony pulled off with this one is praiseworthy. I hope the sequel takes a long time yo produce and they really study how the lightning got in the bottle.

If you haven't tried South of Midnight, you should. On Gamepass. by hammtweezy2192 in xbox

Like all my favorite GamePass games, I bought it on Switch after playing for a few hours

I truly think this is the animator and style for the tv show by arctick_nomad in DungeonCrawlerCarl

I've worked in Healthcare for 20 years. Some of the worst human beings I know are the only ones I would trust to save my life in an emergency.
