It’s a grand time, runs surprisingly well! :)

True that! It’s ironic how they think they’re the “Lord’s Army”, when if we used their own obsession with Revelations as a comparison they’re clearly the false christians worshiping their false prophet that’s preaching the prosperity gospel, and following their anti-christ leader Trump.
Now they’re just waiting for their Third Temple so Jesus can reappear, completely oblivious to the fact that if they ever got their deluded wish they’d immediately just try to lynch him for being a “woke” liberal. Or that he’s supposedly supposed to come back “like a lion” instead of “like a lamb”, which I take to mean he theoretically wouldn’t be as gentle the second time as he was his first time around. And they’re specifically blaspheming in his name. It’s just dumb at every level, even if you do believe in the Bible’s teachings literally.
Ahhh, thanks for clarifying! Figured it was ridiculous lmao
Out of curiosity, what was the Creek incident? The initial fight for Malevelon?
Not at all! But seeing numbers like Palworld sales drove gives me hope GameFreak could panic a little and start trying (although as I mentioned Nintendo and their subsidiaries are greedy and merch sales are still strong for them, along with subpar game sales for the fanbase currently). Perhaps other subsidiaries of Nintendo. Certainly making more of an impact in attracting players than Digimon did when I was a kid, and that’s more of a change than I’ve seen in the last 20 or so years for Nintendo’s monster trainer.
In recent years Nintendo has had a little blue ocean to swim in, and they’ve shown that rather than compete or innovate as times change, they instead like to wall their garden off more. But hey, maybe Zelda and Pokemon can have an awesome next gen if they invest in a more powerful console (handheld or not) and spend a few years reworking their formula and passionately building an innovative game, like they used to do when I was a kid.
Once upon a time the Gameboy was a fairly powerful handheld system, and Pokémon Red was a groundbreaking game. But those days are gone, and the entire umbrella company as a whole needs to begin to try or they will continue to fall behind. Nostalgia only lasts as long as the affected generation(s). I’m hopeful something like the shocks of this year could change their mindset a little and get them to modernize a bit.
Seems to be the Year of Nintendo Burning Bridges. Upside is, maybe all the competition they’re finally getting in both the handheld space and in some of their big software franchises will force them to try to produce better content and hardware. Or it’ll be Nintendo and they’ll stay greedy in their walled garden with inferior products; at the very least we’ll have some superior alternatives to enjoy elsewhere!
Agreed! Giving up is giving in to oligarchs who have profited relentlessly off of our suffering and the defiling of our home. Stand up! It’s better to die on your feet fighting than on your knees, groveling to the rich while they pickpocket your dying corpse.
Climate apocalypse is here for us all. Wanton apathy and inaction leads only to guaranteed failure!
Deck is superior to Switch! And obligatory F—- Nintendo, and their 1990’s mindset with games and hardware. I’m convinced they’ll have to financially fail to start caring. Even a 30% reduction in their sales and player counts should quickly seize their attention.
At this point 2024 is looking like the Year Of Nintendo’s Failures starting off with Palworld. They certainly deserve to fail!
That looks delicious!
No joke! Should it crossover I think even the super rich would find themselves hard pressed to escape it. Maybe some personal danger for the super rich would prompt them to start caring and invest in research on it? Guessing it’d be way too little too late as usual though.
The other two are obviously good, but seriously try Captain of Industry! Nothing like watching your mining operations slowly but surely terraform the face of your island lol
Condolences friend 🙈 TBH I prefer that nice 20C weather (that’s 68F for any folks in the US reading; 40C would be 104F). Right now it’s 2.78C here (37F) and that’s unusually warm this time of year. But you are quite welcome to have a bit of our freezing rain on my behalf jk lol :p
True that! But I remember Superior being fairly icy even in the dog days of August and early September back in the ‘90’s lol it was bizarre having it feel lukewarm on my bare skin!
There are dozens of us! 😂
That’s crazy! Was just up at Superior in September and it felt surreally warm for that lake (like 60-65F, compared to the icy 45-50F it usually is even in the summer). I wonder how long before the temperatures at the lakebed begin to turn up too; normally the cold depth keeps decomposition away, but if it were to start to heat up down there, then that could all change drastically.
And don’t forget you can play the whole thing in VR with the VHVR mod! I’ve played 330+ hours over 3 runs with my friends in VR, beating the Queen while panicking into repeated freefalls into pit (thank you feather cloak) was an insane experience (Yag too TBF; out of our 3 person group everybody died at least once, and several times the lone survivor was stuck doing laps with hordes of Fulings and a few berserkers and shamans in the parade until the others sprinted back from their beds.) Blessings to corpse run lmao

Fascinating video! As a Michigan native who’s spent time in the UP by the Porkies it’s a wonderful and weird bit of history that oft gets forgotten. Thanks for sharing here!
Agreed, and same here! Have to assume I’m not missing out on much lol
Really enjoying Stranded: Alien Dawn! 3D Rimworld in a nutshell lol that or Songs of Syx!
I don’t know if it’s 60 FPS, but just this Sunday I was helldiving on Meridia with a full party of 4 doing dark fluid runs on 9 and I didn’t have any lag or issues playing. And I play docked with the resolution set to 1920x1080 so it’s certainly more aggressive on the hardware than in handheld mode at 1280x800. All this is to say it feels smooth and lag free (I unfortunately just haven’t bothered scoping out FPS; too worried about the Charger that’s aiming to slap me under one of those bile titans 😅)
