Yeah, not having watched Civil War yet was one of the reasons I didn't get around to seeing it in theatres. I think I'm reasonably caught up on everything I'd need, so I'm not too worried about that.

That's not how it works. Gaming computers can last for years and really the only thing that would even need to be replaced if you want to stay active in PC gaming is the graphics card.


To add to this:
1. New consoles are released every 5-7 years usually, so about the time you might have to upgrade your PC. (This isn't including mid-gen upgrades such as PS4 Pro, Xbox One X, New 3DS, etc.)
2. PC usually has better digital sales than console counterparts.
3. You don't pay for online on top of your internet connection on PC.
4. Due to steps 2 and 3, you will most likely save more money in the long run compared to consoles.

The only huge cost is the initial cost of building a PC. But even them that's not much more than consoles when there have been consoles that have launched at $500-600... <_<

I liked it, but it's extremely overrated.

The open world is boring and repetitive. You face the same reskinned enemies over and over again. The only things to really discover are korok seeds and shrines, and too many shrines feel the same. (Some are just straight up copies lol.)
The trials were way too easy and short to be considered dungeons, and I hope you enjoy fighting the same kind of boss four times with slightly different moves...

Ugh. The physics are still great, but the game could have been so much more.

Both these "rules" are going to get broken eventually. The second one has already been stretched way past its original meaning in the past ten years.

I don't know know what you mean about it being stretched? It looks to be the formula that Nintendo has put into place as part of its decision making process. How have they stretch their own set guidelines?

Is the second one an official Nintendo requirement or one of the (dozens of) rules fans have made up about who Nintendo allows in Smash? As far as I recall the only rule that's ever been stated by Sakurai is "from a video game", but I could be mistaken.

On the subject of it being stretched I'm referring to Cloud (and the breaking of many fan rules but that's less relevant). The popular line used in fan conversations used to be that the character had to be on a Nintendo console, which Cloud was considered to be a breach of.

Regardless I think we'll be seeing a Lego minifigure sooner rather than later. Shock value has become a key part of SSB advertising.


Speaking of which, Reggie said that video game characters don't need to have close ties to Nintendo to appear in Smash. (He said this after the Joker announcement.)
He also said that the characters would be ones who aren't anticipated/expected. This rules out most 1st party Nintendo characters imo.

Do it.

I'm extremely introverted too, but I do have a few friends. Putting yourself in uncomfortable social situations can be good for you.
Going to bars is fun with friends, but when you go to those kinds of places with friends you don't mingle with many people besides them. Going by yourself will allow you to meet new people and give you new experiences.
