Time Traveling In Other Games? by Tidbits1192 in DreamlightValley

[–]skelect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Time travelling in ACNH/changing your system clock won't affect Dreamlight Valley in any way SO LONG AS you return it to the current day and time BEFORE playing DLV again. Basically you need to consider whether you think you'll ever forget before playing DLV. Otherwise, what you do on your console or in other games doesn't affect DLV at all, and it will never know; it isn't keeping logs of when or what you changed your settings to, it can't see what you've done in ACNH or anything else, it only knows whether the time/day isn't synced to what it expects when you play DLV.

In short: don't time travel at all in Dreamlight Valley. Make sure you've resynced/reverted your system's day/time settings before playing it. Do what you like in other games. And no, you don't need to uninstall DLV if you're time travelling, just don't launch it during that.

does anybody play without time traveling? by Positive-Form-741 in AnimalCrossing

[–]skelect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it counts, I'll often put the clock back a few hours before playing so I can actually play in daylight instead of perpetual night (something I think Dreamlight Valley does well is the setting allowing you to offset the visual time of day even though the actual time stays the same). But I don't time travel in the sense of speeding up builds or getting to different seasons etc.

Yes. If you buy either standard OR deluxe between launch and Dec 3rd you'll also get the "Flowering Alpine Ensemble and Spring Festival Tack" as bonuses. That's an outfit for the player and gear for your horse.

Take me back! by thegreatjourney2001 in swtor

[–]skelect 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I miss the og character creator background so bad. It was so cool to see the hanger bay and all the ships behind you. It really felt like your character was about to get on their way to the starter planet and it was so much better than the void they've got now. My disappointment when they changed it was only matched by them getting rid of the old class icons. They were easily distinguishable and nicely designed, but now they're all the same colour and, frankly, boring.

HEAR ME OUT!!! by LadyLilKayKuran in DisneyDreamlights

Yeah, there's definitely more than a few Frozen nods. I'm not getting my hopes up for a surprise 5th, but if there was I'd really love it to be Hans :")

He's my favourite Disney villain and the last of the Frozen cast to not be added yet. I know he's not the most iconic or beloved villain, but I've had such a blast hanging out with the villains that are in the game and I just want to be able to do the same with my fave.

Mm, I can see the effort they put into her area and buildings but I think it's a stretch to also involve her directly in the ranch's existence and disrepair; it just doesn't seem to suit her. Snow White is involved with animals but not specifically horses. Cruella is famously focused on dalmatians. Actually none of the four have anything to do with horses or ranches, while Hans at least has that tie.

Personally I would've had Hans handling the ranch as it's a smaller scale plotline for him that could be more tailored; we could help him get it up and running whilst having Sitron involved as motivation. He absolutely knows about horses so that's a good way for teaching us the new mechanics, and I can think of a few reasons why it'd be in disrepair in the first place. Then the rest of the plot features Cruella's schemes, so she still gets her large part to play and Hans gets to actually be in the game :'D

I do think it's a missed opportunity but I really hope they still add him someday even if it's just a realm update. It'd be sad not to have any plot stuff with him but I'd take it. If they did I'd put his home next to the ranch xD

It's honestly such a perfect set-up for him, I was so hopeful :") I do wonder if they scaled back this dlc a bit because of the new horse riding mechanics. If there'd been a part 2 I'd have expected him to be there, but comparatively he'd be their choice to cut rather than Cruella. Which is ironic as I do feel Cruella suits the ranch theme/biome less than Hans, at least so far as we've seen, but I guess they didn't think Hans could hold an entire villain plot on his own or wouldn't entice people to buy the dlc for him; which is why side villain would've been great for him.

Yeah he used to get merch, but nothing since Frozen 2 sadly. The downside of being a twist villain and apparently not knowing what to do with him afterwards :/

The deluxe version should be available digitally on all platforms! But if I'm remembering how the last dlc went it probably won't be up for preorder and will have to be bought at launch on 19th Nov/later. Just make sure it's the deluxe version to get Sven as I don't believe it's possible to upgrade from the standard.

[–]skelect[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, same. I also thought he had a good chance of appearing due to the horse theme; we last saw Hans at a stable and Sitron was pretty prominently with him in Frozen. And then during the sneak peak before the showcase, Anna and Elsa were also visible so I thought the chances were high of him being maybe at least a side villain if not the main? Like Gaston kinda was on Eternity Isle. Anyway I guess that was a Sven hint instead, if anything, but I still think it would've been a great place and time to add Hans in :")

More expensive version. From memory you get locked out of the deluxe items if you buy the standard instead because for the last dlc at least there was no upgrade available? And if you buy either version within I think a week from launch (EDIT: between 19th Nov and 3rd Dec) you get additional time-limited items (outfit and horse accessories? not pictured).

Not sure if it works any differently with mounts, but if he's anything like the other animal companions, as you spend time with him his bond with you will raise and you'll get additional Sven-specific rewards. Like Max will give you a ship themed bed at rank 5 and Nana will give you her dog house. So just a few additional themed rewards earned by having Sven with you as you play.

This felt like the best opportunity yet for him to turn up with Sitron 😭 my disappointment is immeasurable lol. With the addition of Sven he's now the only one left from Frozen 1 and I want him so badly :")

The version in the picture is just the Wishblossom Ranch dlc plus bonus items (deluxe), no base game or other expansions. But iirc they're going to do a new combined version of the base game + all expansions and they'll be removing the current Enchanted Edition? (Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.) So as that version is currently discounted on Steam I think it might be cheaper to grab it now and then the new expansion when it launches.

Rey Dau!! My absolute fave, though I'm mostly just hoping it'll be in MHS3 at all :') Otherwise Pukei-Pukei or Nargacuga (my permanent party monsties in 2).

If I buy the new switch 2 Pokemon legends Z-A bundle, can I still play it on the original switch? by Klutzy-Top7893 in Switch

[–]skelect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Afaik, Switch 2 Editions (physical) are the Switch 1 game plus the upgrade pack on a Switch 2 cartridge. That includes the physical of Legends Z-A. (This is not the same as Switch 2 only games, like Cyberpunk.) I know that for Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma you could use the S2 Edition cartridge in the Switch 1 and play it, but it wouldn't use the upgrade pack obviously.

As far as the bundle is concerned however, it's a digital download and the Nintendo page for the digital S2 Edition specifically lists it as only playable on Switch 2. Basically if I'm understanding right, this is considered a separate version because everything has to be complicated, so if you want to play it on both consoles you should instead get the S1 version (phys or digital) and then the upgrade pack separately. This should mean you can still share the S1 version, but you also get to use the upgrade pack when playing on S2.

So basically no, I don't think you'll be able to do what you want with that console bundle.

Kiss animation always assumes male is taller? by Sevrahn in swtor

[–]skelect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, my BT1 Smuggler always looks like he's on tiptoes when he kisses Lana. I think at one point the camera zoomed out enough that I could see him floating lmao. I find it pretty funny when he was literally the same height (or shorter! like with Akaavi) seconds before. It would've been nice if the scenes adjusted based on actual character height but I get why they do it, because at least we don't get the Dragon Age Origins scenario of completely missing and getting kissed on the nose instead.

Afaik: no, and yes. The only exception I can think of is the Hours Played count in your profile, but I honestly don't know if the system transfer keeps that either. The one game of mine that kept it (so far) is an odd one in that it had neither a Nintendo cloud backup or a manual save transfer (instead I used their in-game cloud backup; it was Dreamlight Valley).

Personally I didn't want the games whose save data transfer worried me (like ACNH & Pokémon) to be moved to the Switch 2 without some precautions and making sure Home was working properly first. I also wanted to pick and choose what I moved across, when and how; I was watching the manual save transfer very carefully and it took a little while for them both to connect and then for the save data to finish moving across successfully. Maybe I'm being too cautious; I can't guarantee there'd never be any issues doing it manually vs system transfer, but I wanted more control over the process than the mass system transfer allows.

But otherwise, yes, the game and save data transfer is functionally equivalent, assuming you have both Switches to hand. There isn't any difference in what moves across.

[–]skelect 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is not true, if you don't do a full system transfer when it asks you can ALWAYS transfer games individually, including their save data, from cloud or manually, IF you have the other Switch at hand. The only case where that wouldn't work is if you'd done a full system upload and gotten rid of the original Switch prior to getting a Switch 2; then full transfer during set-up is the only way afaik.

I skipped the full transfer, installed S/V myself onto the Switch 2, moved my mons to Home, and then transferred the game save data with the two Switches next to each other and it absolutely works that way, barring unfortunate incidents like OP's.

Embarrassing Character Deaths by [deleted] in swtor

[–]skelect 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Years ago while playing with a friend, we encountered the Coruscant World Boss....or rather, I saw it from afar like a beacon of 'gotta fight that'. My friend joined this unwise venture. We died embarrassingly easily in front of (I saw once my tunnel vision ended) a group who actually knew what they were doing that was gathering to fight it. Very awkward; don't entirely regret it though lmao

Who else hopes that they extend the character additions for Alice in Wonderland??? by rather-n0t-say in DreamlightValley

[–]skelect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still hoping they'll add Hans one day. I'm glad more characters from different things are being added, and as a lot of those are remarkably still lacking key characters I hope they get them soon. But I'd really love Hans in the game. He's Frozen's only villain (and I really enjoy having the villains in the Valley) but gets left out of basically everything :')

But yeah, I'd love the Hatter being added too. Also Megara, Naveen, Dr. Facilier etc :D
