Does Australia count?

This is important.

Yes. I have some sort of pituitary gland growth that they wanted to monitor.

I don't really experience "claustrophobia" from just enclosed spaces alone; there also needs to be a lot of people/overcrowding. Which might not actually be designated the same thing as claustrophobia; I'm not sure.

Sounds dumb and something for potential predators to take advantage of.

Not that I would ever want to go to any nightclub anyway.

Can you defeat real bowser with fireballs? And what sprite shows if you do if not a goomba?

Yes you can, and the one in 8-4 doesn't show any other sprite. That's why it's the real Bowser.

The main difference between him and the fakes is that he also chucks a ton of hammers.

(Fake) Bowser from SMB world 1-4

You aren't missing much.

This bird's name shall be Nappa. He hates the media.

I thought it was great. Pretty much the last Zelda game that I enjoyed tbh.

No, just TV static.

In order for it to remind me of Missingno it really needs Missingno's shape, that Tetris-block-reject looking thing.

Yes, but generally not very well in moving vehicles. I have to be on another level of tired for that.

I won't go as far as to say I could have wrote this myself, but I do agree that college is dumb. It was for me, anyway.

difficult to relate to? how though?

They overall became the macho/pervy sort of stereotype, very obsessed with sports, girls, sex, etc. I couldn't relate to this sort of thing, as someone who's asexual and generally very introverted.

Yes, that's been true for me ever since adolescence. Male peers started to become very difficult for me to relate to around that point.

I wouldn't really call it "dating" because that isn't really something I do, but yes, I'm no stranger to relationships that started online. They're the only kind of relationships I've ever had, including my current marriage.

Hold your breath. Keep holding it until you think you can't hold it any longer, then continue holding anyway.

No, you can't pass out. Your body won't let that happen. No matter how you might try, your body will eventually make you take a breath. When it does, hiccups should be gone.

It always works for me. No prescription necessary.

Yeah, this is what I do, although I don't really do it to the point of discomfort. I just exhale, inhale deep again, and repeat a few times.

It stands for [DATA EXPUNGED]

Were talking about the leg bounce thing? Do people in Japan just not have anxiety or something?

Oh, they do. It's just "impolite" to display it.

I say screw that.

My first one, FF6. Wasn't really aware of the genre before that so I had no preconceptions.

Because that isn't the final boss. Square-Enix has a habit of putting ridiculously easy final bosses as the actual final boss, while the story final boss is the second to last boss. The final boss was Yu Yevon.

Nobody really counts him because he isn't meant to be lost to (since you have unlimited auto-revives at this point, the only way you can "lose" is by inflicting petrification on your own characters) or pose any real gameplay challenge whatsoever. His "fight" is basically a playable cinematic to wrap up the story.

BFA is clearly meant to serve the "final boss" role, the last potential challenge in the game that the player might reasonably lose to -- so even if he isn't technically the last fight, he's still going to be what's remembered.

But yeah, that is something Square Enix does a lot.

Raven Beak in Metroid Dread is the only standard final boss I can think of that I couldn't beat. I threw myself at him for several hours, became aware that I hadn't succeeded in getting past even the first phase of four, and completely gave up.

To be honest, the first phase I find to be the trickiest because you cannot progress the fight without melee countering, and because of his shielding it's not entirely clear to everyone on how to trigger it or when it even happens. So if it's any consolation, you were stuck on what I'd say is the hardest part of the fight.

Actually, now that I think about it, I do remember at some point reading about the "trick" of switching all the CPUs to human players on the last turn of the game, so that after the game was over you would collect all of the coins/stars the CPUs had gathered.

But this was years after I'd basically finished my time with MP1, so I never put this to use.

I didn't even know you could do that

Why are you testing me on trivia instead of how to do chemistry?

That's school's gimmick in a nutshell. Wasting your time/money/brainspace with platitudes instead of things that will actually be useful for the next generation to know.

The only kind of girlfriend I've had was online. I preferred it that way, because I was never really big on physicality or in-person obligations.

It's very obvious to me that it's being saved for the Switch's successor, which likely happened because of the restarted development, and not wanting to force a long-distanced-from-the-series Retro Studios to have to work on (as) underpowered hardware (which wouldn't surprise me if that was at least part of the reason why the development got restarted in the first place)

I'll definitely still play it, but I'm not super eager/hyped over it, so it doesn't matter to me how long it's been taking. Prime was clearly originally intended to just be a trilogy with the 3rd game having a sense of finality (aside from that one little 100% completion post-credits stinger scene which it wouldn't even surprise me if it ends up not even being a plot point in Prime 4), so frankly Prime 4 just comes off to me as a sort of extra/DLC content overall rather than some long-awaited proper continuation to an unfinished story.

I remember hearing this story that he offended some contestant with a joke and she demanded to the studio that he apologize. Then he said something like "If I have to apologize, I'm leaving the show."

He never apologized and the studio just let it go lol. I forget what the context was but it was funny to see him flex his power at the studio and play chicken with them >_>

I remember that something like this happened with one of the kids tournaments (which is surely why they stopped doing them)

You sound like a conservative, with the idc about anyone else mentality.

Yes, because expressing that I personally wouldn't want to play N64 or later games through a phone must mean I "don't care" about anyone else.

You're so close to getting it.

I can guarantee you there are plenty of people who own a TV that dont have any computing device aside from smartphone. Why do you assume they do?

Why are you assuming I was talking about anyone else's circumstances?

All depends how you feel about LDR, so nobody else can answer that for you. Personally, I'm completely fine with it, and am in a nearly 10-year relationship, 5-year marriage that had most of the pre-marriage time spent as LDR (I lived in Hawaii and they lived in France).

If you decide you're open to it, I think you should try communicating about it when she isn't drunk just to make sure she is aware of and still means what she said. I will say the fact that you already have shared a living space before is a benefit; you already have at least some idea of what it would be like.

If I have a TV/monitor, that also means I have better hardware that I could be playing these games on. I see no reason why I'd have to run them through a phone.

So again, big meh

There is zero chance I'd want to play those consoles on a phone screen, so meh.

I have a somewhat spiritual/agnostic side, but wouldn't say I'm outright religious.

"Poohniverse" is certainly a choice of name.

I don't care about politics or "hornyposting" and I figure most of the people who will leave/disappear are the people who were probably getting regularly suspended/purg'd before anyway.

I have no reason to go anywhere else.

You must work in a horrid place if you can easily get fired for something out of your control.

Cute that you think most employers care about whether your lateness was due to something within your control or not.

Most of those people don't give a shit about wars halfway across the world, and holding them up from their three o'clock certainly isn't incentivizing the cause. And what of emergency services? I hope they all get punished to the fullest extent of the law.

This.

I remember saying this same thing in a previous topic about it, but the thumbnail for this video showing the mod describing itself as "final fantasy 6:Tactics" does not inspire confidence toward its quality.

If fat were truly a part of your identity, it would imply it is permanent,

I don't see why that necessarily implies permanence. Adjectives that apply to you today don't necessarily apply tomorrow.

Yes, mostly Diablo 2 and 3.

I dabbled very briefly in Starcraft, but I'm exceptionally bad at that sort of game, so I was over that one quick. Micromanagement is absolutely not my thing, to the extent that it's even kept me away from games like Pikmin.

Money. Even if I were peerless at it, I don't really want to be fighting people.

Spoon is way too slow. I want to get on with my life.

Well, one of them was, I guess.

I don't get why people were so blown away at the whole "Pokmon can shrink" thing that Legends Arceus drew explicit attention to. The series is literally called Pocket Monsters. What did you expect?
