My grandfather is super excited for BotW2… he expressed his “impatience” for the title during a 75-minute Zelda-themed phone call we just shared. It’s super funny and so wholesome.

We never shared many common interests as I was growing up. He’s into NASCAR races and I’m into Nintendo… two different worlds. But I introduced him to Zelda last year along with a Switch Lite, and it’s brought us so much closer together.

I’ve played 175 hours of Breath of the Wild since I got it in March 2017. He’s been playing since March 2021 and has accumulated 930 hours. Unreal.

My man Switchum is back with the most wholesome content in all of Famiboards

There might be some improvements definitely, but what I'm fairly confident in is that the lighting is still based on the original versions, and it definitely pales when compared. Not a huge deal, but certainly more pleasant to look at with the refined lighting model!

the lighting was a downgraded version of the existing one on ps4 and one, it is better than the original but downgraded compared to those more modern versions

however, the most important thing is that it will finally have mods in the switch version

The SteamWorld games are very fun and Image and Form's approach of "expanding the universe while trying different genres" is very sane and so far has proven to be successful. Hope some of these planned games will be released on the Switch.

Why did I genuinely expect the black screen to slowly come into focus with a "Hey you, you're finally awake."

Damn you Todd

Energy reserves aren't all there, but thankfully this day is calm and I can save myself for band practice and sax playing.

Played a round of Tetris during work, even though I don't have an OLED Switch and my C1 is still in its box (woo for condo being delayed again), I kinda want to pick up Tetris Effect just so I don't have people bullying me online.

City building is a really good idea for this franchise. Excited to see that. I think “Caramel” could be Heist 2 based on the minimal info mentioned, but could be something more in the xcom vein.
 
I've continued my first playthrough of Xenoblade DE since my last post and I'm really enjoying it. There's something super chill about exploring the huge areas in the game, even with the random Lv. 70+ enemies you see every once in a while.

Not very far into the game yet though, just reached the Colony 6 area.

I completely forgot about Headhunter until I saw this article. Hopefully we get some more news soon.

You have to play with sunglasses on and yell « ME FUNKY » every time you do a jump. The character will be unlocked after 30 minutes.

For real though, you have to select « Funky Mode » at the beginning of the game.

Started out with Big Yoshi energy when I woke up.
Had Big Yoshi energy when I arrived at the office.
Maintained Big Yoshi energy during work hours.
Got home from work — still Big Yoshi energy,
Did some chores with, you guessed it.

Glad there's only so many hours in a day.

It wasn't on purpose, it was that thing where you get food close to your face and you're not paying attention to how you're breathing (because obvs you only pay that much attention to your breathing during panic attacks) and you absent-mindedly breathe in and accidentally inhale part of the food in doing so.

I know what wasn't really your question but I felt you deserved an answer as to why I didn't don't.

What's question 2?

I love the SteamWorld games and I'm especially looking forward to seeing that city builder.

But I can't help but feel that most people just want Dig 3 lol

Hey, I don't know if anyone from Thunderful will read this but

I am going to buy every SteamWorld game you'll sell me
 
Crap I don't think I have enough space on my hard drive left to create a demo build... That's a problem!

lotta people were like "smash needs an indie rep" and would put forth like, some wack ass character like hollow knight or shovel knight or whatever when the right answer was RUSTY from SteamWorld Dig all along

Pretty sure they're waiting for Live A Live to come out to talk about it. They wouldn't want one of Japan's most loved JRPG's ever to steal Live A Live's thunder, would they?

It's also a good thing for them to build their TGS presence around in September

I think a recent interview or earnings call hinted on multiple HD-2D games so they will probably give space between them. So after Live A Live we might expected the announcement of the next one (probably DQ 3) in a direct in the fall.

When we finally get a blowout trailer/gameplay/name/release date/etc. for BOTW 2, you have to either get consent from your grandpa to record his live reaction, or just post a paraphrase of his commentary here. I live for this stuff.

Can a guy get an update on the Dragon Quest 3 remake.
Click to expand...
my frothing demand increases

Honestly I'd love for every DQ game to wind up on Switch eventually. I'm okay with 1 and 2's mobile ports. The enemy art is bad but for those two very primitive, less-than-excellent games, it's completely serviceable.

DQ 3, 4, 5, and 6 honestly all deserve the HD 2D treatment. I understand this is a WAY taller order than I'm letting on: HD2D is not a turn-key process, and requires immense work to do. That said, if any series deserves the treatment, it's DQ, especially those 4 games.

7 and 8 could have their 3DS versions polished up and ported over I assume relatively cheaply.

Last but not least, 9 deserves a ground-up HD remake for modern consoles.

I’m trying to get my grandma to buy a capture card so that my grandpa can record his BotW2 content and upload it to YouTube. Would y’all be interested in watching my 75-year-old Zelda-obsessed grandpa delve into the game?

No kidding, I’d watch a daily live stream of your grandpa playing BotW. That’s the kind of content we all need right now I think
 
Serious question if anyone knows, I'm trying to free up PC space and I notice Unreal Engine 4 has folders in both my 32 bit and 64 bit program files each taking up a ton of space, do I need both of these or can I delete one?

I am sorry for this, but I don't have anywhere to turn.

God, I am so fucking violently angry right now with how almost nothing is really improving in my life. My sister just got out of court saying that my younger nephew's piece of shit sperm donor of a dad has some visitation rights to him, despite the fact that
A) He has a long extensive history of abusing my sister and my older nephew
B) Him and his shitass family tried to coach my younger nephew to say that my older nephew molested him (The detectives concluded that the nigga's story was inconsistent). The judge largely dismiss my sister's claims stating that it was the problem between her and the sperm donor.Between my mom having permanent brain damage from the stroke and being stuck in a shitty nursing home til potentially the end of the year to my poor financial situation (I can't even really afford some fucking mental health care), to what was stated above and other personal problems, I am ready to end it all. I've failed at life, I've failed to protect myself and my family, and I've failed to pursue great opportunities. I have almost no skills or hobbies left. I've failed to be a good and interesting friend to anyone, living in perpetual loneliness and misery that I mostly created for myself. I can't help either my mom, my sister, my nephews, or my niece. I've failed to be a good uncle, brother, and son. I hate myself and the things I've said and done over the years upon reflection. I'm just a waste of flesh and bone that just exist. I've been suppressing my hatred and rage for too long and I would rather implode and kill myself before I hurt anyone. There is no light at the end of the tunnel for me anymore.
 
I think I need to accept that my friend that borrowed Pokémon Soulsilver a decade ago isn’t giving it back.

Ah well what’s $150 buying another copy off eBay.

So so sorry to hear this. Please don’t do anything that would hurt you; the world would be a darker place without you.

So very sorry to hear this, but please don’t hurt yourself… you will be missed if something happens to you. Please seek some help if you can’t resist the dark thoughts.

In dark times, it is easy to only see the negatives. You are not worthless. You have a lot of offer this world and yourself. If you were not here, there are many people that would miss you. The world is much better with you being in it.

Never give up on yourself. You have the ability to do so much. @switchum gave a good link. There are so many resources out there for both your mental and physical needs. Be strong and never be afraid to ask for help.
