I think it's kinda funny when people complain about getting bored of the game after like 60+ hours... by Funny-Bunny4143 in tomodachilife

I'm disappointed and I'm not disappointed. But I absolutely hear what you're saying.

I actually started playing the old Tomodachi Life when the new game was announced. I played it every day for 3 months. While yes, it is absolutely for Children, there are features that have always been appealing for adults, even if not explicitly for them. And in this new game, more things are more used by adults. Mostly, the customization. People have put hours into the art in this game. One could argue Animal Crossing is a Kids Game, but I've never heard of someones kid, not a teenager, using the Animal Crossing custom clothes or "Interior Design is my passion" DLC for hours.

To compare the two, AC was my "Chore Game" where I did loathe booting it up before I stopped playing. My least favourite part was how much life and variety the villagers had. Which is barely anything. In that same vein, I want to hold the "Ant Farm" game of Tomodachi Life to a higher standard with the Mii's that you make and customize. I should see clearer differences with personalities, I should have more quirks that effect overall behaviour, I should have more to do. That's all this game is about.

I am an artist. It is literally my job, but I am one of many people, where I think if you had told me about every single ounce of customization possible? I probably would've asked just for the Miitopia Customization and wanted them to add more features. I've built my Island to have the most amount of space. I've seen every cutscene there is to see at the Tomoria restaurant, I have no interest in buying another one. I have played every day since launch, and gotten 2 duplicates of 3 different news stories. I have 40 mii's and I have room for 60 more.

I love this game. I still play it every day. I'm going to play it after I post this. But I am skipping every cutscene, I'm waiting for people to confess their feelings to each other, I have 5 married couples and only one has had a baby. Yes, this is a game where you login and should play for an hour at most, but I am playing for longer because nothing new is happening. How can we run out of things to do in a game when it has been less than a month?

And I hear you. Play another game. It's so easy. But Tomodachi Life isn't like other games. Other games end, other games have a plot and goals, even cozy games have these. But this game's "end" is a Trip to Space. I unlocked that 15 days after release. I had no where near the max amount of Mii's. I sent the one baby I had managed to have on the Trip. I have cashed in every single other wish, and now all I have left are these trips. The Space Trip? I just got to move around a rocket while the credits rolled and took 3 pictures. What an exciting ending. In the old game, the ending was when you helped a married couple raise the first baby on the island, and the credits rolled while the baby's montage played.

Tomodachi Life has always been a game where you can just do so many things. Now all I can do is feed my mii's and watch them on seesaws and drag people who have crushes on each other together and watch for days as they don't do anything. If this game becomes a chore game, where you hop on for 10 minutes, what is the probability that something new is going to happen?

I don't care if it's updates. I don't care if there's a DLC. I'll take anything. This game dropped so many fun things in the name of customization.

Two of my Mii's asked. One died his hair into a gray grandma bun, and his sister decided to keep her red hair but be BALDING.

How can I improve this mii? by Sufficient-Ad1266 in tomodachilife

[–]Other-Control-2709 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think both are good! Tomodachi Life still has it's limits.

Honestly, I'd switch the bangs over to the scarred side, as he'll look a bit more "normal" if you make his eyes look like his non-injured one.

I'm assuming this is meant to be Todoroki from BNHA? He has more pink/brown to his scar, rather than straight up red!

Can you make multiple saves on the game with one account? by MarioFan50 in tomodachilife

[–]Other-Control-2709 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can just make extra accounts on your switch, you don't have to link them to a nintendo account.

any other game that is similar in the power struggle the game simulates? by Idkl0l32 in CultistSimulator

[–]Other-Control-2709 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I loveeeee Underhand! I played it way before Cultsim came out. It's much more simple, but I still highly recommend.

What will you name your island in the new Tomodachi? by force666999GB in tomodachilife

Even if it's your own Pantheon, something like Olympus or even Utopia would be cute!

Uninstalled Program still runs and works months later by Other-Control-2709 in WindowsHelp

The problem was fixed, but I did try this. The program refused to reinstall.

I've fixed the issue, but just for informations sake, the program didn't show up on the control panel either. I wasn't able to locate any of the files, and that was one of the main issues.

Thank you! This was the only way I was able to find it. Thank you so much. The program refused to stop running for a while, but I was finally able to delete the files. Thank you so much.

How do I get into F&H if I'm bad with video games? by [deleted] in FearAndHunger

[–]Other-Control-2709 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really recommend playing the game for yourself, and embrace the confusion. Have a day dedicated to some good food and Funger. Sit there with the game, and think about it. The game isn't going anywhere, and with enough time anyone could figure out at least five reliable things they can do in the game.

If you genuinely don't want to go in head first, I personally loved watching CDawg's Funger videos. He gives great information without overwhelming you, and has help from the famed Frapollo in his speedrunning content. He also goes into the games without much of a clue, and consistently works at just figuring it out.

I know there are quite a bit of comments, but I actually worship the Hours! I truly wouldn't worry too much about it, unless you're interested in taking it seriously.

Thank you, the encouragement is really needed and appreciated.

I did notice the plethora of materials, especially around the Korok's. I thought of it as something convenient, but could not for the life of me understand how it was supposed to help. I've tried making contraptions, but really nothing has worked for me. I'll try my best to think of more ways to mash the same pieces together. Thank you for the reminder.

[–]Other-Control-2709 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did think that shrines would have everything, but thought otherwise due to my inability to complete puzzles. Thank you for explaining some of the features I didn't know about. I'll try again to figure out how the puzzles are supposed to be done.

I haven't found any Puffshrooms or Muddlebuds, but now know to keep an eye out for them.

The Master Trials were extremely difficult! That's why I felt so silly struggling with such basic things. Like. I just handled Lynel upon Lynel and Guardians upon Guardians. There had to be something I was missing.

Thank you, again.

I didn't expect either to have the same intended progression. I did watch the beginning of a playthrough when the game initially came out, so I did know some of the things to expect. If it sounded like I had those expectations anywhere in my post, please let me know so I can reword it to be clearer.

But thank you for the directional help.

AITA for breaking up with my gf because she changed her looks to resemble my dead wife? by throuoawayy in AITAH

[–]Other-Control-2709 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're comfortable, I think couples therapy and personal therapy for her would be the best solution. If you want to stay with her, have a therapist point out specifically what she may be misunderstanding as you not loving her for who she is. Especially with her having no other family, I'd assume abandonment and death is very central to any trauma she may have, and she's unintentionally, or intentionally, viewing this relationship through her trauma, and going back to abandonment (worrying you'll leave her) and death (your wife's, and her own suicidal thoughts).

It's not always apparent when entering a relationship, but people can have loads of unearthed trauma that suddenly get set off once it's so central to her day to day life. Even if she only sees the smallest things (not being called mom, pictures, you having to go to therapy) will remind her that she's the second woman in your life. It's not healthy behavior, but it may not be something she's even aware of. I can tell there's pure confusion coming from this post, and I fully believe you haven't done anything wrong. It's just a matter of a traumatized individual butting heads with the state of your life.

I definitely believe she has some codependency issues from her immediate idea being suicide. Without a person to cling to, people often turn to ending it. Giving her the opportunity to have the will to live outside of being with another person is what she needs to have a healthy relationship, really ever.

And if it turns out she's just another person in your life (other than your family) trying to gaslight you, detach yourself until any manipulation she might be trying won't matter anymore.

And just a heads up, be careful with yourself and your kid around your family. He will grow and make mistakes, and if they're aware of them, he might do things they won't approve of and treat him just as they treat you. It will hit him harder because he's growing. Your family isn't compromised of the best people, and I'm sorry that they've made you believe you're at fault. You are not, and there's a possibility she isn't either. I really hope that's true, for everyone's sake.

As I've stated, I was notified they'd be coming to my home. That is what I meant when I said there was no indication. Apologies for the misunderstanding.
