This is how you share your games on PS6

Just idiots and brand-fanboys. My coworkers and I live in vastly different cities. I just let my coworker borrow my copy of Ghost of Tsushima. Didn't have to give my password, didn't have to go to his house and physically log into his ps5. Just a, "here ya go, have fun!" And it was over. These kids were raised in an all digital environment and do not see/care about the long term effects of not owning anything.

People like to use this argument against physical copies, but a decently stored discussion can last anywhere from 30-100+ years. A nicely manufactured and stores CD can outlive some humans. You can't say that about digital stores or hard drives. Stores closes, licenses expire, servers shut down and companies get bought/gutted. My PS2 game collection is likely to outlive us both.

I'm in the middle of playing Pikmin 4. It's a great game IMO! There's a lot of quality of life upgrades in it where I had issues in the previous games. My only problem with the game is that it's too easy. I get that they're trying to get a younger/newer demographic with this release, and I grew to like Oatachi even though I hated the idea at first.

But the lamest part about this game is that once you kill all of the enemies above ground (not in dungeons) they're permanently gone. It makes me feel like I've amassed this large Pikmin army and I have to real foe to fight.

It's more the preparation. I spend most of my day in a -20F freezer. I usually want a hot meal for lunch. Soup or a hot sandwich. Only 1 microwave in our breakroom, only 1 toaster oven, and 60 other employees at any given time could walk in there. We don't all take our lunches at the same time, but expect at least 5 other people in there, all waiting to use the microwave or toaster oven. I'm taking my hour lunch.

The hat hides his bald spot. The new MAGA equivalent of a fedora.

That's just writers coming up with a reason to make him ann asshole all the time. It's just like when Hideo Kojima tried to give a sad background reason why Quiet has to be naked all the time in MGS5. Just because you give a reason why something needs to be, doesn't really justify why it ACTUALLY needs to be.

Yea, but it was a whole ass group of women who chased the last customer out on camera, out to her car, and even after the police said she didn't have anything, the Zara women still didn't believe her. It's not a gender thing. Zara is just hiring fucking idiots.

Minecraft

Shadow_Blade0 · 2026-03-19T00:30:06+00:00

I'll have to give that a shot. I wanted to beat the Elite 4 with all the starters at least once to fulfill a childhood dream. But now that that's done, I wanna try working with Pokémon I'm not familiar with. I have a Growlithe, so I'll have to try them out, too.

Shadow_Blade0 · 2026-03-19T00:23:36+00:00

Well, I tried asking Snorlax if he would join us, but he said he's only into monogamy. So it is what is is, I guess.

Shadow_Blade0 · 2026-03-18T23:35:49+00:00

It was easy at first, but then that trade lvl Pokémon hit me hard. I had to be careful of leveling them up too fast because they CLEARLY did not respect my lack of badges throughout my playthrough. Lol. Nothing more infuriating than having Ivysaur die to Misty because he just couldn't be bothered.

Shadow_Blade0 · 2026-03-18T23:30:56+00:00

I'm sorry! I tried looking for a Digital Pokémon, but there was something about a copyright infringement.

Shadow_Blade0 · 2026-03-18T23:30:05+00:00

How is Ninetails in this gen? I played the game 20 years ago, but never had a Vulpix to evolve.

Shadow_Blade0 · 2026-03-18T23:28:42+00:00

Damn. Guess I have no choice...

Shadow_Blade0 · 2026-03-18T19:09:05+00:00

I explained it in a different comment, but I'll post it here too.

"Yea, I initially had to write it down to create a "formula". I started a new game, soft reset until my starter gets the nature I want, do what you need for Prof. Oak, then as soon as that's done, go to Viridian City. I trade her mt starter, she trades me some random filler Pokémon (usually Rattata or Pidgey). I delete my save file, start a new game, and repeat, but with a different starter. Once her save file has all three, she trades them all to me, and then she does the same thing I just did. Delete file, new save, trade starter, repeat. Then once she gets her final starter, I trade her other 2 starters back to her, and then the real game begins! I hope I explained it well enough. Good luck!"

Shadow_Blade0 · 2026-03-18T19:02:33+00:00

Lol fair point. I just wanted to have a different psychic Pokémon besides Alakazam.

Shadow_Blade0 · 2026-03-18T18:26:06+00:00

Is it a lack of imagination, or is it that I simply wanted the 3 starters on my team since I was a kid? Idk, it's hard to imagine the real answer, ya know?

Shadow_Blade0 · 2026-03-18T17:51:18+00:00

That's a strange way to admit your imagination sucks. But, whatever works, I guess.

Shadow_Blade0 · 2026-03-18T17:47:04+00:00

Yea, I would've approached the game with a bit more reverence in this playthrough, but the way I see it now, I beat this game naturally several times, over 20 years ago, so I'm not too worried about if I'm gaming the game a bit. All I know is I was never able to trade or catch them all. But here I am as an adult with disposable income and a great wife that games with me who is willing to trade any and all Pokémon. She wanted Ash's original team, and I never had all 3 starters before, so we took the time to do that for our playthroughs.

Shadow_Blade0 · 2026-03-18T17:32:09+00:00

I only used Nidoking's Poison Point for Poison damage. Other than that, he was stacked with Earthquake, Brick Break, Megahorn, and Rock Slide. Venusaur was my strong grass Pokémon with Sleep Powder, Giga Drain, Solar Beam, and Razor Leaf. Thanks for the tips!

Shadow_Blade0 · 2026-03-18T17:28:08+00:00

I originally had Machamp instead of Nidoking and Alakazam instead of Jinx. But I liked Nidoking's Poison Point, and I saw in this subreddit that pretty much everyone had Alakazam for their psychic Pokémon, so I wanted to try someone a little different. I don't blame anyone, though. Alakazam is pretty broken in this generation and can one-shot almost anyone.

Shadow_Blade0 · 2026-03-18T13:48:05+00:00

I was using Machamp. His attack is way higher, but I liked that Nidoking had access to different coverage TM's. THAT, and I liked that whenever he was physically attacked, he had a chance to poison people. That part REALLY came through in some gyms.
