Damn I could've bought the new PC I desperately need with my retroactive famicoin balance.

I prefer this approach honestly. I found the marketing low-key but very fitting and diverse (the Pokemon reveals notably). And it is not like the game isn’t trending insanely well.There's a lot more to the game than what's seen in the trailers. I originally thought the game would be low on content until I saw the leaks.
Maaan, I'm getting overhyped hearing stuff like this. I mean how can they up Sword Shield's new pokémon? It literally raised the bar way up high. We had copper elephant excavators, Hot Tamales centipede, goblins who attack with body hair, even B-2 stealth bomber pokémon. Whole shit was bonkers. How can they get better than this?Holy shit Scarlet and Violet actually look really fucking good from the leaks. So it was the marketing that was terrible, not the game. Wtf lol
I will not partake in your capitalist system and will now only communicate via revolutionary gifs
It’s going places… fast!When does the famistock market open? I wanna get in on the ground floor of chocsupra inc., that company is going places.
See, I usually do that when I actually plan on getting a game right away. SV looks really good from what I’ve seen of the marketing though.I've avoided Scarlet/Violet leaks and marketing because I'd decided not to buy the game a while ago, but now I'm going through the usual temptation phase.
And that's despite all the stuff I have piled up to finish/start. And I still want to try Tunic, which I'll probably do with a new Game Pass sub.
I’m more avoiding spoilers just to see if I can. Evolution being a surprise for once might be cool.I didn't try to avoid Pokémon spoilers because I know that it doesn't really impact my enjoyment of these games, never has. I understand why people don't want to see new Pokémon, their evolutions, what trainers/gym leaders/the E4 look like etc. but it's not that big a deal to me. At this point I more or less know what I'm getting out of these games and it's rather the stuff that's "under the hood", that can make or break my experience, the more intangible things like pacing and the level of agency I'm granted.
I played both GS and RS completely (well not completely) in the dark and that was among the best gaming experiences I had. GS blackout was kind of involuntary due to infancy of the internet back then but combined with how hidden was the new Pokémon in those games, playing hours and hours of it yet still discovering new things was straight up awesome. I remember that in GS no trainer used Dunsparce and I spend months trying to find out what that blank spot in my dex was.

Two of those things are actually funny though.Famicoins

What a day!
I respect that, I think realizing that I picked the "wrong" starter would bum me out too much lmao.I’m more avoiding spoilers just to see if I can. Evolution being a surprise for once might be cool.
Well you should have!I swear to god I did not wait to post for the new page. That was 100% a happy accident.
Get that money. Still one of the most fun famiboards threads because you kept stoking the flames lmao. No pressure but at this point I can't really imagine anyone else doing it but of course you don't have to do it if you don't want to just hope you realize what you're depriving everyone of as I said no pressue but also do it.famicoin makes me want to call dibs on the q1 direct thread...
this time there will be switch pro for real!Get that money. Still one of the most fun famiboards threads because you kept stoking the flames lmao.

Calling it right now, Direct is on February 9th and they'll tease a new hardware announcement for the following week.this time there will be switch pro for real!
I distinctly recall you saying you didn’t want to be OP on anymore direct threads after the never ending thread this summeryeah, I'm calling Informal Dibs
But now that fake currency is in play that all goes out the window.I distinctly recall you saying you didn’t want to be OP on anymore direct threads after the never ending thread this summer

Coffee is basically necessary for me to just be at baseline functioning at this point.Coffee is failing to wake me up. I feel like I need my joints oiled, which subsequently made me imagine I was a robot, so that was cool.
Famicoins reveal announcement was cool. Getting two coins for posting in the other parts of the forum is exceedingly clever.
Coffee is a miracle. It cured my chronic and insanely debilitating cluster headaches, and cut down my headache rate in general. I owe my ability to function to those bitter, bitter beans.Coffee is basically necessary for me to just be at baseline functioning at this point.
Yeah. The other day I forgot to caffeinate and I was debilitated by the end of the day. It definitely can help with things but you gotta stick to it daily.Coffee is a miracle.

Honestly I'm currently at the point where I really like the idea of Famicoin but I'm a bit nervous/wary about how it'll evolve. I hope people don't get TOO serious about it.

If I don’t get any coffee I’ll have a splitting headache all day. caffeine addiction is a hell of a thing. I tried to cut out caffeine earlier this year because my wife thought it might contribute to my anxiety. I got off caffeine, started getting headaches, and my anxiety didn’t get any better. Now I’m back on coffee and much happier.Coffee is a miracle. It cured my chronic and insanely debilitating cluster headaches, and cut down my headache rate in general.

I never used to drink coffee though, the headaches for me weren't any part of a caffeine addiction. Coffee (caffeine specifically I assume) literally is the cure for my particular condition.If I don’t get any coffee I’ll have a splitting headache all day. caffeine addiction is a hell of a thing. I tried to cut out caffeine earlier this year because my wife thought it might contribute to my anxiety. I got off caffeine, started getting headaches, and my anxiety didn’t get any better.

Still anxious though.
Funny enough... yes... totally unexpected and by accident... indeedEh, 200 characters is only like 2-3 sentences. That's less than the size of a tweet (280 characters). Funny enough, your post just earned you a famicoin, lol.
We already know how it'll evolve. Bellydrum said you'll be able to redeem prizes with your famicoins in the near future.
I try to not get too used to coffee, because it does slow you down if your body is used to it and you stop drinking it. Still, that caffeine jolt does tend to prove to be invaluable.Coffee is basically necessary for me to just be at baseline functioning at this point
Yup, that’s the difficult part.It definitely can help with things but you gotta stick to it daily.
You’ll be pleased to know that medically speaking there’s no problem with being addicted to coffee, as long as you’re not overdosing on it. Caffeine does have therapeutic properties.caffeine addiction is a hell of a thing
Case in point.It cured my chronic and insanely debilitating cluster headaches, and cut down my headache rate in general.
Shhhhh don’t tell him that. With my tendency to quote a lot of people I will be swimming in digital coins!Random thought @bellydrum
I see that quotes and replies add to the character count. Are those characters not counted toward the famicoin two hundred? Seems like an easy way to cheese the system if you just quote a few things.
Pokemon S/V introducing convergent evolution is still one of the best thingsAll I know is that I'm adding water diglett to my team
It’s brilliant. Come talk about it in our ST! I’m desperate for more folks to talk to about the game lolI put about two hours into God of War. Yeah, it’s pretty good! I think this might be interpreted as a troll and I don’t mean for it to! Having said that, I am not overly impressed with the visuals. Again, I don’t mean for this to sound snobby - it looks very good! I just have Horizon Forbidden West on my mind recently. Though, maybe that game is just otherworldly when it comes to animation and visuals.
Anyway, God of War is good. Feels right at home.
Time to make yet another splinter website!But now that fake currency is in play that all goes out the window.
