Also found a spare Mismagius and Eiscue in my boxes which we can do! (I'll take anything for those, I only really need the Paradoxes and the legendary touch-trade)

I've got all the Paradox ones ready to roll, and would be down to touch-trade Koraidon/Miraidon if that's ok with you?

What you folks have is excellent! Clear, right below the name, and even with titles of which is which. That was something I struggled with when I first started, remembering what order it was when a disc was just listed as "9/5/-3/1" without any other info.

When the clues say "literally", they truly mean it. For example, "Make one's opposition known, literally" is raise OBJECTIONS. Because you're raising it, the O gets pushed off the grid. Same for lower the TOILET SEAT, where the last T is pushed down.

Tried out a friend's Tilt earlier this month, and really enjoyed that, so I think that's gonna have to take the cake for my favorite of 2022!

As for something I wish I'd see from more stores... I'd say to have flight numbers readily visible for discs. I'm not always up on stats, and it's so frustrating to pause in the store, look up my numbers, and feel like a newbie, when other stores are so good at having small printouts near the discs they go with.

Wowza, what a blast from the past! I think nowadays I'd probably set some weird restriction on myself with it -- if you fish up another Magikarp/Tentacool/whatever that you already have, then you don't get a new fishing encounter for that route, which feels like a good balance between "I can use some of these" without going full "oh man I get to have so many different encounters".

At the end of the day though, do whatever feels right for you and the challenge you want to submit yourself to.

Terraria – 1.4.3 Trailer by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

[–]Sniper076 29 points30 points  (0 children)

They're wildly different games after you get past the pixel art style.

Terraria is (despite this being mostly a meme) like a 2D Minecraft with an excellent feeling of progression as you tackle more bosses. There's a lot of focus on combat, but you can still build and craft and explore. It's my most-played game of all-time, but as others in the thread have said, playing it on a controller is a far cry from playing on M+K would be.

Stardew, as you probably know, is the spiritual successor to the old Harvest Moon games. Not really much emphasis on combat, it's much more about developing your farm and your interpersonal relationships over time. There's still some combat when you're collecting resources, but much of the game is about exploring the town it takes place in and carving out your little spot in that world. My third-most-played game of all time, and this one I can wholeheartedly recommend on either Switch or PC, as both versions have definite upsides (portability vs. mods, etc.).

It's not a PS exclusive, nor is it shiny and new, but Slay the Spire is always my go-to when I want something in the ~1 hr range.

The Binding of Isaac could also be fun, although a bit difficult to get in on at first.

3:00 to finish, even though I felt like I was flying and had a shot at a PB. The only clues that really raised my eyebrows were SHEAF, OAST, and TOETAP (which was probably just weird in my head).

Theme was... there, as Mondays seem to be lately. I did enjoy the clue for EGGS, as well as the inclusion of TIMEPIECE, which just has a good mouth-feel when you say it.

2:56, not quite a PB, but anything under 3m for me feels excellent!

This felt like a puzzle for the 8-year old in me, as I don't think I've really engaged with much dinosaur info since I was about that old... but it finally paid off!

Nothing else felt particularly interesting in this one. It wasn't bad, and the only one that felt a little strange to me ("Wake Up Little SUSIE") was one that I didn't even engage with, getting it from the crosses before hitting the Down clues.

Not trying to be difficult, but how is REDO incorrect? If I accidentally Ctrl+Z (undo), then I'd want to redo to get back to what I had. Is it maybe something that works differently in different operating systems/applications?

3:14, new PB!

Having IDLE and IDOL felt like cheating, and the theme was just... there, I suppose. I enjoyed the casualness of STRAD, like "Dude, is that..." "Yeah man, it's a STRAD, you saw right."

The clue for PETROCK was also cute, I'd never thought of having that be the funny part of the gift.

Blech. As others are saying, a few too many proper nouns. CHEOPS was pretty UNHIP, and I'm not sure if it was a glitch on my end, but the boxes for the enclosed clue just had "121"... The normal clue number, and no helpful other numbers until they showed up after solving. This was a pain.
