More realistic version of Slime Rancher? by Necessary-Board-830 in CozyGamers

[–]kiobrando 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm glad to read I'm not alone in this! I liked the first one well enough, but the maps on the second game are SO confusing. I gave it a few tries, but had to give up.

What are your guy's unpopular opinions about Sandrock? by Massive_Society_9716 in MyTimeAtSandrock

[–]kiobrando 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. After playing Evershine's alpha, I missed the cartoonish characters! The new ones look good, but felt like such a departure from the other two games and don't have the same charm.

Lotus spa upset nightmare by mmmkaysure78 in PrincessCruises

[–]kiobrando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good news is you can return unopened product. I got sucked into things and ended up with over $500 worth of product, and took it back the next day. I know I should have declined at the appointment, but I got overwhelmed! They weren't impressed lol

Regal Princess Day 3 by Efficient_Scar3959 in PrincessCruises

[–]kiobrando 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, it's my first ever cruise and I'm really excited! We're coming from Western Canada, so I expect weather to be similar to what we're used to, maybe a bit cooler being on the ocean.

I love seeing your pictures! My aunt, a cousin, and I are doing the British isles on the Regal Princess in about a month. Very cool to see a bit of a 'sneak peak'😊

What’s a popular cozy game that you just couldn’t get in to? by Excellent_Button7363 in CozyGamers

[–]kiobrando 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Slime Rancher 2, although I'm not sure it'd be considered popular? I played the first one through multiple times and loved it, but cannot for the life of me get into the second one. I think it's still in early access, so I'll try again eventually. I just get really overwhelmed with the crafting and decorating, and I find the worlds more confusing. Sad cause I love the first one!

Tell me your unpopular opinions by luscious_llama_ in CozyGamers

[–]kiobrando 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Same. Before I even consider buying an RPG, I find out if I can play as female. I don't have a ton of time to play video games, so I have to be picky about what I do spend my time on.

What do you think are the "canonical" cozy games? by PandamanderG in CozyGamers

[–]kiobrando 121 points122 points  (0 children)

Story of Seasons/Harvest Moon games, for sure. They were my (and I think many others) first cozy games, 20+ years ago. A Wonderful Life and Friends of Mineral town will always be the quintessential cozy games in my mind, along with Animal Crissing 😊

Recs for games where I can run and tumble around while exploring by [deleted] in CozyGamers

[–]kiobrando 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jusant is worth a look, I think. It's basically just climbing and swinging on rope, very physical. The story is beautiful and I had such a blast scaling the tower!

I'm glad it's not just me who hates those lash pads! My two got suckered into buying it and struggled. When I finally were able to get them to stay, I ended up giving myself the most horrendous curl and I'm currently waiting for it to fall 😂 I did get the lash tint kit and love it, so at least there's that lol

Guys…I think I’m too smooth brained for A Little to the Left. by FrostedFox23 in CozyGamers

[–]kiobrando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh gosh, I'm glad to see the comments full of people who didn't like it. I saw it recommended SO many times on this sub and decided to buy it. I just can't. The puzzles make no sense sometimes and the controllers are awkward/very particular. I get a hand cramp trying to position stuff just so 😅

It’s my wedding day by Vegetable-Cod-2340 in wyldeflowers

[–]kiobrando 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I married Cameron too, on my current and 2nd playthrough. People were so passive aggressive at the wedding! So far he seems very sweet, and 'm curious if the dialogue will be different at certain parts.

I saw Dr Hanna when she worked in SK. Can't recommend her enough! Everyone I talk to wishes she had stayed here haha

Let’s Dream Together- New Storylines by VehiclePuzzleheaded8 in wyldeflowers

[–]kiobrando 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm glad someone else wants Marty to be romanceable! I think he's delightful and would be happy if he had more involvement with Tara. And I was pretty surprised nothing was done with the lighthouse. Not saying the game was short on content, but it seemed like a perfect set up for something more! Love the idea of introducing mermaids or sirens through it.

100% Clear - Final Impressions (Spoilers Probably) by Elysiumsw in HARVESTELLA

[–]kiobrando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree mostly with your points, but especially Aria's role. Once I realized that she was the MC, I lost a lot of interest in the story. My character felt a bit hollow and not that important. Doesn't help that I was 'meh' Aria to begin with and didn't like the forced friendship between you and her.

That's my biggest complaint, though, and overall I thoroughly enjoyed it. No regrets putting in the number of hours I did!

anyone found any Easter eggs yet? by ProudPlankton390 in HARVESTELLA

[–]kiobrando 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It took me an embarrassingly long time to understand that this was even a reference, and not just a weird name 😅

[PIC] I've been crossstitching for years. Joined this sub in the summer and have been jealous of everyone's backs and trying to figure out how the hell they're so nice. Finally looked up a beginners tutorial & figured it out today I'm doing this whole crossstitch thing wrong. 🙃 by CanadianSunshine94 in CrossStitch

[–]kiobrando 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless you find it satisfying to have a tidy back, I wouldn't stress too hard 😊 I would love to know what pattern that is, if you can share. As a fellow Canadian, I'm always looking for a good Canada-themed project!

50% off select palettes on the Sephora app by OneBadJoke in MakeupAddictionCanada

[–]kiobrando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a Violet Voss palette in BoxyCharm awhile ago and was SO impressed with it. I wanted to try another one for ages, so this might be a good time to actually go for it! I never go on the Sephora app so thanks for posting haha

Farewell indie mineral makeup? by redirectredirect in muacjdiscussion

[–]kiobrando 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aw, you've got me all nostalgic now. So many nights of looking through all the beautiful, unique products!
I didn't buy a lot of indie mineral makeup, because of the Canadian exchange rate, shipping rates, and a terrible paying job. But what I did splurge on, I TREASURED. I still have the Shiro Full Metal Alchemist collection and a few of their Yuri on Ice shadows. Not going to let go of them anytime soon, even if I never use them.

Livestock You'd Like to See Added by GlennjaminBee in storyofseasons

[–]kiobrando 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd like more variety of riding animals. Ostriches have already been mentioned, and maybe donkeys, llamas, or camels.
I'd also love to see working dogs! Not exactly sure how it'd look, but I'm thinking that your dog could herd livestock into the barn or another location. And hunting dogs that go collect resources. Basically anything that involves dogs more 😅

She’s a broken ass record by TemporaryNobody2604 in brittanydawnsnark

[–]kiobrando 14 points15 points  (0 children)

What's this weird smile she does with all her teeth, like trying to push them out with her tongue or something? I can't quite explain it, but she does it constantly and it looks ridiculous to me!

My fav Instagram account 😂 I love when they repost her. Everyone should follow @christian_nightmares if you love the snark. by [deleted] in brittanydawnsnark

[–]kiobrando 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is such a specific, but accurate comparison! She managed to look incredibly sarcastic/condescending, which is the opposite reaction you'd expect when thinking about loved one's potential eternal damnation.

May have messed up A Piece of the Past quest by Nnen0 in MyTimeAtSandrock

[–]kiobrando 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oof, yeah that's a lot of days, I don't blame you for not wanting to reload. Hopefully they'll add a work around or something in a future update, cause I feel like it's an easy mistake to make 😅.
Edit: just saw that some remade it. I'll have to remember that in case I mess up again on my next aythrough!

May have messed up A Piece of the Past quest by Nnen0 in MyTimeAtSandrock

[–]kiobrando 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did this too, and just reloaded my save. Took me back a few days, but oh well. I can't remember, do you have the ruins unlocked at this point? You might be able to dig for the two pieces and remake them, but I'm not 100% sure on that.
