This stresses me out.


They compare it with a Switch Oled too but turns out they have the same screen size :p they need to compare them with a Split Pad or a Binbok attached XD

Anyway I'm definitely interested one of those specially for indies that don't leave PC

every time I see "Mariko" I think of "Mikado," the nickname for the steam locomotive configuration of 2 leading wheels, 8 driving wheels, and 2 trailing wheels

I was going to post this in the hardware thread but they have it hard enough as is without peanut gallery shitposts
Btw the setting of Shin Megami Tensei IV is called The Eastern Kingdom of Mikado
 
I am this close to try the good old mallet method to finally fall asleep.

Lotta ice cream places having to close because of customers being dicks during the pandemic.
I wish we were strict enough to get to that point (not that I want anyone to have to close due to jerks being dickish). Instead, my county is lifting the mask mandate, right in time for super bowl weekend. Totally a great plan.

I’ve got 7 missions left in SRW X, and I should be able to finish my homework tonight so I should have the weekend to blow through it if I can focus. May start Digimon cyberslueth
Cluster headaches are still a pretty big mystery to doctors.


They're not sure how they're caused and they have a pretty wide range of different periods and experiences. For me I used to get them for about 1-2 week clusters (each headache itself lasts like 20-30 minutes but they come in clusters of like 1-3 a day for a couple weeks) around when spring and fall would start. That's why I think mine is caused by changes in temperature but to be honest it might also be circadian rhythm. Ever since I started having a cup of coffee every morning I haven't gotten them at all.

If you've only gotten it once and you don't get it again it's probably not a cluster headache but if you do experience it again within a week or two it might be that. Caffeine was my cure but I'm sure it's different for everyone.
I fight migraines for multiple days straight every couple of weeks. Get triggered by everything from allergies to atmospheric pressure. The worst are the ones amplified by optic exposure. Especially when my allergies cause my eyes to wig out too. The ones that screw with my focus are almost worst than the painful ones
 
Chapter 6 was pretty good. I was not a fan of the whole “running around to different areas only to find out that the thing I needed from this area can only be obtained by slogging through another area I’ve already been in” thing, but other than that it was nice. Flower Fields looks really pretty when the sun comes back up. This chapter not having a dungeon was pretty nice, but I guess the whole chapter was kind of a dungeon in itself. And to cap it all off Huff N. Puff was a satisfying kill.

Also this chapter had some bangers:

Man... did anyone else read Animorphs

My SO brought something up (broccoli) that unlocked a whole-ass Animorphs memory and I was just thinking about how wild that series was
I remember reading Animorphs and Goosebumps as a kid.

I know a very weird amount of lore, but I remember very little specifics. I used to read those books all the time and now I'm having flashbacks

I still have the entire set of books (plus the Andalite Chronicles and Hork Bjar or however you spell that) in my childhood home.

The Hork-Bajir Chronicles. Yes. I remember when one of them understood what an "image" was and tried to explain to the others that his scratchings on a tree was a picture of them. None of them understood.

I have a horrible long term memory so I barely remember anything about any of those books despite having read them all multiple times.

All I know is to stay away from space slugs.

The animorphs should have just used salt
 
I know there's a thread about it on the main page, but man it is great having Jon back with the GVG crew. I'm really looking forward to what they are doing now, especially with going back to more of a weekly podcast structure (among lots of other things, of course). I was a huge fan of the GX Real Talk podcast when they were all on it and this sounds like it's basically going to be that, again.

Every time I see a picture of the Steam Deck, I always think how it would make for a great prop in a wrestling match. Like it's something a heel would pull out from under the ring to hit the babyface in the head with it and steal the championship.

Maybe Gabe Newell can become one of those rival GMs to Vince and this can be what he uses to get a sneak attack in at a pay per view. Or make it a signature weapon for his stable of wrestlers. Would be good advertising honestly.

I’m not ashamed to admit that I used a guide to unlock Rusty Bucket Bay. How the hell did people figure that out back in the day????

Edit: I’m rhyming like Grunty

Even if the moment-to-moment gameplay of that chapter wasn't necessarily my favorite, the atmosphere in Flower Fields has always been so cozy.

Chapter 7 is a wall-to-wall BANGER, looking forward to hearing your update!
 
That’s mission 46 of srwx down, entering the endgame now. But now I need to sleep XD. Aiming to finish this this weekend!

It sounds like the stars are finally about to be aligned and GoldenEye will be returning after 24 and a half years.

2022 is already looking like such a strong year for Switch, but there are a fair few cherries being placed on top now, particularly for the seasoned gamer.

All that remains to be seen is whether it's the remaster, an NSO rom of the original, or perhaps even both - but either way, the next NSO announcement is in 3 weeks time and may finally end one of the longest waits in gaming.

A bit of personal post, but I do think a lot of people has been in similar situations during the pandemic so I wanna share.

To cope with a lot of personal struggle - Cancer has played a big part in the near family during the pandemic, pandemic has made a siginicant dent on my physical and mental health over the last year and a half - I decided to start the year with a bang doing stuff that would actively improve my life be it health, economy and to be able enjoy my self (like actually play video games instead of just buying them :p)

I didnt expect to get so many results so quickly - while I did change a lot of stuff, I did not even go overboard and it has gone incredibly smooth.
  • Started walking daily - between 30-120minutes a day
  • Removing energy drinks from my life
  • No fast food or crips/chips but still eating everything else as long as it's home made
  • Drinking a lot of water
  • Not spend a single penny on anything I didnt need for the entire month of January - only bills, stuff for my kids and food.
  • Starting to sell off stuff I didnt really need or use
  • Give away clothes to charity I didnt use anymore
  • Playing games

And with about 30 day "investment" It's been well worth the time. I lost 23 pounds out of the 50 I gained during the last year and a half - resting bpm dropped 10 beats per minute which has obviously led to many positives. I saved almost 700$ this month by not spending it on sheit, I sold stuff in boxes and on shelves for 1600$, I gave away 20kgs of clothes and I beat 4 games from the backlog.

I also managed to atract Covid again (for the 2nd time, not a good thing but still a happening for the month :p) and certify myself as an ITIL 4 expert at work.
It's been a long time since but feeling proud of myself isnt something I do often so this was a pretty huge month for me.

With that out - for anyone in a similar situation: Small changes on stuff you CAN affect make a huge difference for your mental (and physical) state =)
 
Just re-discovered this screenshot I took from an end-of-hunt-screen in MH Rise, where I managed to deal the killing blow to a Great Baggi in a rather disrespecting fashion.

I'm not sure what word I hate more now, freedom, yikes or sus :/

I hate new age internet lingo

Anyone that non-ironically complains about their freedom gets a side-eye straight away from me these days, in Victoria it’s basically the opening line of every antivaxer.

Great reading all these positive achievements.
I also changed quite a bit. No sugar, no stupid expenses which just take up space. Saved a lot the last years and managed to get a credit to now buy a flat. It’s incredible how much money is wasted for nothing and it’s amazing what your body will do with minor changes over time.
 
@Derachi As the site’s ‘Yakuza’ guy, would you say Dead Souls is worth £42 or is it a silly idea to consider buying it at that price? :)

EDIT: NVM bought it! :D

Thank you, and well done yourself! Grats on getting the money to buy a flat =)

Yeah I looked over my money spent the last year or so at the end of the year and realized that we didnt really have many expenses but yet I spent a lot of money every month. I easily spent 500-600$ every month on food orders and other stuff just because it was "cheap" and hundreds on craft beers that I hadnt tried before that I just put in my fridge for late use anyway. That's silly because I will never be able to try them all anyway :p

Yep I'm amazed at how fast the body reacted positively to some stuff. Almost halfway back to where I was pre pandemic in little more than a month really is incredible.
 
Besides Pokémon Legends I’ve been playing this Mini Golf VR game called Walkabout Mini Golf on Oculus. It’s so good. I love Mini Golf in real life and VR makes it better since you can do so much more with course design.

My horrible horrendous secret

I have never played Dead Souls…

I always wanted to! I own it on PS3. Maybe on Halloween I’ll break the PS3 out, pray it still works (my launch Xbox one doesn’t anymore so let’s hope) and play some spoooooky Yakuza

I read what my local library had, which means the first 20 or so and a spattering of the later ones.
The animorphs should have just used salt
I feel like this was totally a joke the books themselves used lol
