Working adult seeing people excited for summer
To me summer means working in the same spot but with the window open next to me

It's the five overlapping/conflicting ESRB ratings that does it for me

Great games, but yeah say goodbye to all your time with those two put together. I think I put over 150 hours into both, I can’t even imagine them at the same time

Have you ever had a chat-bot pop up on some company's/web-shop's homepage giving you the old "Good day, how can we help you?" and instead of rolling your eyes at it you just stare at it with a blank expression, murmuring to yourself "You cannot..." before clicking on the small x in the upper right corner and watching it fade out.

Nice! I'm doing my second route of 3H now so at least I know the basics.
It's my first run of Xenoblade (or any Xeno game at all)... completely overwhelmed by tutorials and quests in my first hour or so.
Also got almost killed by random monsters way more powerful than me. Exploring is dangerous...

this
is exactly what I’m talking about
fucking awful, rest in peace
this isn’t just a convention problem or an america problem or a “systemic only” problem, it’s the whole fucking stack
the more we act like we’re not in a real and present crisis — one that is now in some ways worse with way less data reporting and caring — the more people are going to die
that blood is on far more hands than whatever convenient self-excusing beliefs are getting people through the day
you can’t decide that if the government won’t do anything, then you’re absolved of all responsibility. this is when community care and protecting others matters most, and it’s in every action and every decision.
and I know what’s at stake and how impossible it is when it’s “make this event happen or cease to exist”
but you look at it all and you follow the strings and you choke on the record profits and the million+ dead and you look at who won’t wear a mask in the grocery store and you see what elected officials on all sides and all levels of power do and you look at what the “I just want to do it” thresholds are for everyone and just
like people have to care now and they have to keep doing it
I’m not trying to just rant off this tragedy, this is fucking horrible, but it really is all connected
you can’t keep believing that vaccination makes you completely bulletproof and protects everyone else 100% — it’s necessary and important but it doesn’t absolve you of needing to do the rest
you can’t keep believing that wearing one discount mask in a crowded hall all day is all it takes to protect you and everyone else
you have to do these things and still operate like we’re in a pandemic, like your actions can kill whether you see it or it’s five down the chain
these events shouldn’t be taking place at all, and there’s lots to say about that and the repercussions, but the pandemic isn’t over and trusting that the current mandates or even the CDC will reflect what’s truly safe without being beholden to acceptable life loss for self-perpetuating western demands — outrageous expectation to profit and the wages needed to survive in a fundamentally deadly trapeze without safety nets, also profitable by design — is misguided at best
and lots of people are trying to get the science as clear as possible and out there, but we have to accept that it’s simultaneously necessary, fallible, and cannot be divorced from it’s own framing, especially when policy is involved
and I know everyone’s so sick of it because believe me, we’re sick of fearing for our lives and not being able to take transit for mundane tasks or joy, we’re sick of having to run in and out of convenience stores in under five minutes for groceries, we’re sick of not seeing our families or friends, we’re sick of immediately knowing who wants us to die based on what they are or aren’t wearing on their faces, just
I don’t know, this is awful and just so indicative, and this poor fucking person is dead now, and we’re only even hearing about it because it was the most direct point a to point b path possible
I keep saying the same things over and over and at this point I don’t know what the point of that is because I know I’m not changing a single damn thing
I’m so tired
Edit: and in no way am I blaming the individual, to be clear — fuck that — I just mean on the whole we need to know what’s at stake here, what’s at stake with huge events, hold companies accountable for having these events regardless of government-acceptable death, take deep personal care that we aren’t participating in things that can really harm others, know and understand what we can of the actual mechanics of it and why some things aren’t enough, etc etc etc
like this event shouldn’t have happened, and it’s not just the system, the company needs to be held accountable, and people can’t just be like “well I got vaccinated so it wasn’t me who spread COVID at this event” when that’s not how it works at all
if it’s not clear I am begging for community care because everyone else has failed us
and we have to stop failing each other
we must rage against the huge systemic failures that did this, and we need to hold the companies profiting off of this con accountable and tell them to care about people beyond the loose systemic suggestions, but we also have to understand that the pandemic is still here and each try to know the mechanics and risks of it to take the utmost care for ourselves and others

Dirt 5 is a frustrating game, because it feels like a regression from the previous numbered titles, and it feels like an arcade racer in the wrong ways. I get they wanted to separate the game from the more hardcore Rally games, but removing rallying itself was a bizarre choice, considering that it's the literal foundation of the franchise and in the games it takes inspiration from (Dirt 2 and 3) was still the tentpole mode. What you're left with is a bunch of repetitive races, which is amplified with the lack of actual championships, and returning modes like Gymkhana being worse to play with the new physics, plus a grind for cosmetics. That, and you can tell it's an Evolution Studios made game, because the AI rubberbands like there's no tomorrow.
Edit: I also just remember that Dirt 5 doesn't have Flashbacks (the Codemasters rewind mechanic), yet the more hardcore F1 series has em. What a miss lol.

Nintendo, hire this man!
Nintendo, this as well!
(I don't know how drastic it needs to be in changing format, but the general premise works)
Been saying it for a while now. If Nintendo wants to sell Wind Waker again, including the games adjacent to it is a good option. It makes them available in a retail package and adds value to the new Wind Waker release.
Adding new challenge islands and such might not be a terrible idea in addition.
Again, as well, Link's Crossbow TrainingI, at least, with Twilight PrincessI.
The CD-I games are discoverable through a maligned storyteller within the next Tingle game.
Also, all the Tingle games see current release.
This take could only originate in the abyss.
You've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?

Nintendo presence in LATAM is awful especially in Brazil. I hope they improve it , there is a huge Nintendo community in these places but due how hard and expensive it's to buy the consoles/games even more than in Europe/USA most either don't buy them or resort to piracy. That's also why funny enough this has created a really strong fan-game community in these regions especially in Pokemon case , I remember playing as a kid a ton of Mexican/Argentinian Pokemon fan-games and becoming friends with a lot of LATAM fan-game players which I'm still friends to this day.

Why do I have the feeling that the US will be split into two or more different countries sometime in the near future? Seems inevitable at this point. One country will be formed on the west coast, one in the south with Texas and Florida, then all the other states will become their own country or be split with the two new countries. There's two very different mindsets in the US right now and it's impossible to meet in the middle.

Nintendo has no official presence on Brazil, due to high import taxes the games/consoles were really expensive and didn't sell well enough according to Nintendo to mantain their presence, and I guess for the same reason no official distributors has picked the rights for Nintendo retail games forcing Brazilian players to buy from black/grey market or digital. (also even if you can buy Switch oficially there it's really expensive iirc its 3000 reals which makes it around 600 dollars)

Your divisions don't make much sense. If anything, the Northeast and West will form one country while the South, most of the Midwest, and Texas would form their own.
