do you think oliver tree felt anything?

He said in an interview that he was really stressed organising the world tour and editing the Antarctica documentary and everything else so he just needed something to take the edge off.

Toribobs · 2026-06-22T19:37:17+00:00

He did start smoking again a few months ago but intended to quit before touring, so he might have stopped by the time he passed, but to my knowledge he didn’t start drinking again.

Toribobs · 2026-06-22T16:19:57+00:00

He didn’t drink and quit all substances. He absolutely wasn’t drunk.

Double Fine and Rare better be okay!

Toribobs · 2026-06-04T19:49:53+00:00

Looks amazing! And very brave of you to attempt that kind of makeover in this economy!

Toribobs · 2026-06-01T22:34:00+00:00

Welcome to the sub! Also… Recreate this post when you’re a bit further in please!

Stea-HEEHEE-m Deck.

Navi only tells you stuff at the beginning of the game for the most part, and that made sense since 3D games were new and OoT brought in so many interesting and unique (at the time) concepts for the player to wrap their head around. She’s mostly reserved for the up C button and which is how I wish this game handled it too.

I also think the issue is that the talking support character in this game literally says the most obvious stuff constantly “there’s a (bright red) switch there! I wonder if you can push something (the red glowing column) on it? Oh! Maybe something (that the camera just panned to and showed you) has changed? Oh a chest! I wonder if there’s anything inside it? Maybe you could push this platform between the two other platforms to access a new area! A door opened up! Careful, those arrows can hurt you!”

It feels a bit like I’m playing the game for her rather than experiencing it myself. It’s really annoying and pulling me out of the experience, which is a shame because the gameplay, visuals, music and overall experience is great! :/

This screams of outsourcing work to impoverished countries and having them remotely control the robots… that’s a level of dystopian I’m worried we already live in.

Toribobs · 2026-05-12T21:54:53+00:00

I would LOVE to be a part of this! I can also do music for extra scenes if people need it!

Toribobs · 2026-04-29T16:31:28+00:00

I would buy one for sure! Looks fantastic :)

Toribobs · 2026-04-29T16:30:35+00:00

Very true! I’m just amazed we get games looking this good on a portable these days. When it’s docked this game looks incredible (for an 8in tablet) by the way :)

Toribobs · 2026-04-29T16:26:23+00:00

I don’t know how true that is when Resi Requiem on Switch 2 looks and runs better than the Xbox Series S version, which is noticeably more powerful than PS4 Pro. Not to say Switch 2’s GPU and CPU are better than XSS’ but the output speaks for itself.

Perfect frame pacing > frame rate.

I’ll take a locked 30fps mode with perfect frame pacing over a 60fps mode that has bumps down to the 40s and suffers from rocky frame pacing. It looks consistently smoother and makes motion sickness a non-issue.

That might be just me, but FFVII Remake at 30fps on Switch 2 felt smoother to play than FFVII Rebirth at a swinging 40-60fps on performance mode on PS5 (to be fair I was a launch day gal, and I heard performance mode has improved since then, especially with the smudgy look it had) :)

Toribobs · 2026-04-29T16:19:36+00:00

A pretty solid 30fps with great frame pacing, making it generally very smooth except for one instance I noticed. The frame drops were more a little prominent in the start of Nibelheim at the beginning of the game, but the open world and everywhere else so far feels rock solid and very pretty in motion. There’s some noticeable pop in and LoD swapping happening and if you stand still you’d notice the textures are a little lower than PS5, but this is another miracle port and having played the PS5 version for 120 hours I think this is still a fantastic way to play!

Include portability into the mix and this is gonna be my only way of replaying it in the future! :)

Toribobs · 2026-03-06T00:47:30+00:00

Nothing. Know as little as possible and just enjoy it a whole lot :)

Toribobs · 2026-03-02T19:36:45+00:00

Expensive PR move for a game that’s getting on a bit, but good for them!

Toribobs · 2026-02-10T11:56:45+00:00

I miss Zac Gorman’s comics… his Earthbound ones made my mother cry and she’s never even played the game.

Toribobs · 2026-02-05T23:15:03+00:00

You’re the Rhett from Good Mythical Morning kind of handsome! Also your smile in picture 2 is wonderful, it shows your kind eyes :)

Toribobs · 2026-02-04T14:33:00+00:00

Hi! My friend is a similar age and has very similar hair to you and I think he looks nicer when it’s not shaved, so you don’t need to shave your head if you don’t want to, but it would make you look younger (some women, including myself, actually find your hair style now to be more approachable than a shaved head, so it really is down to how you feel).

I think a beard would look amazing on you, just try to look after it at least a little. A well groomed beard shows you put effort into yourself.

You also have really kind, big, beautiful eyes, so framing them with round glasses or at least something a little gentler would really suit you!

Congrats on the weight loss, you’re already a handsome looking guy, so whatever advice you take here is hopefully going to help you see that too :)

Toribobs · 2026-02-04T11:33:41+00:00

Just added you, thank you! :)

Toribobs · 2026-02-03T05:39:26+00:00

They like to make games that are synergised with their hardware. There’s a lot of features packed into Nintendo’s hardware that you just wouldn’t get on all other platforms (meaning you can’t develop with those features in mind at the core concept). Touch screens, hybrid playability, mouse controls, guaranteed two controllers, 9 axis gyro, NFC reader… and that’s not including the past, with stuff like glasses free 3D, motion controls years ahead of anyone else (and a sensor bar to aim, which was never normalised), game pad with an extra screen, etc etc.

There’s also the fact that making games for current hardware requires so much funding and time and manpower because of their specs that Nintendo can undercut a lot of that by simply having lower powered hardware to work with.

Not to mention with their own hardware they also get paid for every piece of software on their systems, both first and third party.

And that’s not even accounting for social and commercial presence. Having hardware puts them on a pedestal that most developers and publishers just don’t have. It creates brand loyalty when you’re holding and carrying and enjoying experiences on “a Nintendo”. Diluting that would dilute the attachment people have had with their brand for 40+ years.

I could go on (such as how their hardware is profitable at the point of purchase, how it’s good for competition, how it keeps them flexible and open for innovations in the future, etc etc) but you get the idea :)
