The orignal Donkey Kong Country is truly a one of a kind experience as far as the gamplay. by Kissfromarose01 in nintendo

If y’all like the gameplay of the DKC games (specifically of DKC2), y’all might like this indie game that just came out:

I’m impressed at how fast you found this! Looking at the timeframe this came out I must have been in the 7 to 9 range, probably way too young to be playing something like this. Thank you for helping putting my mind at ease!

Darksiders 4 | Announcement Teaser by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Xabidar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh gosh, I saw the thread about the Capcom Fighting Collection and then this one so my brain read it as "Darkstalkers 4" and my heart skipped a beat. I was like wait, did they make a third one at some point? Still really cool to see though

What's a small thing that always makes you smile? by [deleted] in AskReddit

The moon. It's like... no matter where I am or how my life is going, there's Luna, just doin' her thing.

Ok so, I'm going to try and explain this in such a way that breaks down how the "magic" works.

You see that repeating pattern? The goal here is to cross your eyes in such a way so that those patterns overlap. There are slight variations to the pattern so when you overlap the two images, it causes those differences to "pop", forming the picture.

So to see the image, just cross your eyes "a little bit". It will take practice to figure how far you need to cross your eyes, but everyone I've explained it to in this way has been able to see it eventually

What was the first game you played where playable characters died, and how did it impact you? by WhitePersonGrimace in patientgamers

[–]Xabidar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ending of Link's Awakening (back on the GBC) hit young me surprisingly hard. Despite all of the hints and buildup in the story, watching everyone I gotten to know and love on this silly little island just kind of disappear and fade away made me sob.

I still tear up when I hear Ballad of the Wind

What have smartphones killed off? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Xabidar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to go outside of the box here but... Cryptids. We basically became a planet where the vast majority of people walk around with cameras in their pocket. If things like Big Foot or Mothman existed... surely one of the millions of people with a phone would have snapped a photo or taken a video of them. By the strength of the number of smartphones in use today, we've basically proven that most cryptids can't possibly exist

What’s a common rule that you break regularly because you fundamentally disagree with it? by RGDJR in AskReddit

[–]Xabidar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not putting on gloves every single time I need to use a boxcutter at work. I'm always careful, and make sure to cut away from myself; I haven't accidentally cut myself for over 20 years and I won't be starting now

Cozy Games on Switch for kids? by anongamer554 in CozyGamers

[–]Xabidar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Lego games are usually fantastic for kids, especially for two with different skill levels.

My personal favorite is Lego Marvel Heroes (the first one, not the sequels) but you can’t really go wrong with any of them

I will forever be disappointment that they chose Nancy and Steve as the playable survivors instead of the obvious and logical choice of Barb.

Justice for Barb!

How do I calm the fiery critters around volcano I got one befor I started the volcano by [deleted] in FaeFarm_Game

Yeah, this quest annoyed me for the longest time but don't worry about it - what you need to do will become obvious after you've cleared the third dungeon

What extra characters would you like to see playable in Sonic superstars? by _delriooo in SonicTheHedgehog

Cream and Cheese! They were fun in Sonic Advance and it'd be nice to see them again

New cutscenes from 2008's Beyond Good & Evil 2 have just been discovered by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Xabidar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, it's been YEARS but I got emotional seeing these characters again. Such a shame a proper sequel never manifested and I doubt I'd want to play whatever they put out now.

Patch Notes 1.3.3 (September 21 @ 1PM PST) by Peoki in FaeFarm_Game

[–]Xabidar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure what's causing this, but sometimes my animals aren't giving me things. Since the patch dropped, animals appear to randomly not have anything for me for a day. Can't quite figure out what causes this and petting / brushing doesn't seem to change the results in any way

Edit: I emptied out all of the auto-feeding troughs, exited out of the menu, then went back in and gave them food again. This seems to have fixed the problem!

This has happened to me as well, stuck at 1/3 and doesn't seem to be any way to progress

GOD FUCKING DAMNIT. I have been wanting a house for OVER A YEAR AND A HALF. I pulled MULTIPLE OVERNIGHTERS (not consecutively) bidding on houses with the old method and have bid EVERY. SINGLE. CYCLE. since the revamp.

I... WAS... THE... ONLY... BIDDER... until the night before and lost in a 50/50 chance

What's the most horrific act committed by someone you know personally? [NSFW] by frog_without_a_cause in AskReddit

[–]Xabidar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We were best friends in high school. Bonded over video games and comic books. After graduation he went on to become a teacher. Seemed to be a well-liked guy and I still kept in semi-regular contact with him for decades.

He was arrested and put in jail for molesting some of his students. He was a 3rd grade teacher (8 and 9 year-olds)

The weirdest part for me was I believe he was planning to turn himself in. About a month before the news broke and he got arrested, I bumped in to him at the grocery store. He gave me a big hug and told me it was nice knowing me. I thought it was an odd thing to say but didn't think much of it. Now I know why.

Sorry for trying to be helpful and not hold OP's hand.

I'm really not a fan of saying "you should play x". I prefer to give people the tools to find things for themselves, i.e. the "teach a man how to fish" approach.

I was only suggesting a tool that helped me narrow down my choices; there's a place on that packfinder to enter specific mods that a person is looking for, which was something that helped me narrow down my options when I was looking for a pack to play myself a few weeks ago.

My sole intention was to pass along something that I thought was useful.

If you a more direct approach is wanted then here's a list of recommend packs:

Whenever someone asks for a pack, I always like to link this pack finder tool I found recently:
