Virginia Beaches weather is wtf. We go from windy and cloudy, to tornado warning, then a downpour and finally ends with a blue sky.

Virginia Beach..

I meant generally.

Yeah, I know there are a few despicable characters here and there like Bill Hawks and Chief Jakes.

No I mean PL has its fair share of characters that you just wanna slapnthe crap out of lol Bill being the one all the fandom hates the most

I just don't understand why Puyo Puyo Tetris is getting sharing restrictions.

Who plays puzzle games for the plot?

The Portal games had pretty engaging stories.

And Tetris is a brilliant allegory:

Pleasure to be of assistance.

Let me know when you get to Death Mountain, I'll tell you how to find the airship.

I'm sorta already there. So far all I've been doing is climbing towers and hitting shrines. Just finished up the Akkala tower; that was a ***** to figure out, and all the rain didn't help either. I could warp over to Death Mountain right now, although there's a giant mecha Salamander there. I don't know if I should **** with it.

Also, going back to the rain, god damn it rains a ton in Hyrule. It wouldn't be too big of an issue if it made climbing everything nearly impossible. There's stuff I want/have to do, and I'm basically forced to just sit there and wait till it's over. Elder Scroll games have a wait function for a reason.

Just heard Mr. Potato Head's voice actor Don Rickles has passed away.

 

[Erureido]

I may have been too vague.

Layton I can totally understand. Both its story AND puzzles are the selling points.

Falling block games like Puyo Puyo & Tetris (where story isn't their strongest point) I don't.

In that case, I'm in the same boat when it comes to the other puzzle games. I don't play Puyo Puyo, but I do play Tetris every now and then, and perhaps some Brain Age as well, and I care far more about the gameplay in both.

Don Rickles was always one of those older celebrities I've always liked, like with Bob Newhart, Betty White, and Stan Lee. Incredibly sad to see him go, but at least he lived to his nineties. Rest in peace.

I don't expect to see BotW for at least until next January for AGDQ...

Because spoilers and because its still developing amoung speedrunners...

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Erureido Do we know who the new puzzle creater for Lady Layton is?

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

I bet a certain someone would be happy to know that Leon, errrr Squall had won. He's the main dude, it's kind o expected. Rinoa and Zell did decently as well. That face tatoo.

Next will be the rest of the permanent FF VIII party members and some temporary ones. Your choices are Selphie, Laguna, Kiros, and Irvine. I can guarantee you that Ultimecia and Seifer are next.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Gunblades FTW

Irvine was always my favorite among those 4. Easy vote for me. Also voted Squall earlier. Great character~ Not that I don't like the entire main cast as is. Honestly one of my favorite games.

------------

As for MK8 deluxe, probably will pick it up eventually when I get a Switch. I didn't buy any of MK8's DLC just yet, and it seems it was a good move in the end. I'm lazy about DLC purchases outside of SSB itself, so...

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Also Ibhave another video game question. What is Ys Origin?

 

[SegaNintendoUbisoft]

Just heard Mr. Potato Head's voice actor Don Rickles has passed away.

I'm not familiar with most of his works, but Toy Story's Mr. Potato Head is one of my favorite fictional characters.

Rest in peace, good sir.

Is this a group charity thing? I might stream a few of these games like Halo CE, Titanfall 2, Banjo or Doom 2016

 

[ChikoLad]

Don Rickles passing away does raise an interesting question.

Do you think they will find a new voice actor for Mr. Potato Head, or will they find a way to tastefully exclude Mr. Potato Head from the film, while still giving him a send off/tribute of sorts?

One stream shows a bunch of speedruns live over a few days for charity.

I'm betting the former.

They didn't seem to have any problem getting a new voice actor for Slinky Dog after Jim Varney passed away.

It could go one of two ways.

Depending on how much foresight Disney had, they could have had Don record his lines early. The script is done, I think. There's precedence for this, too, with Stan Lee filming his cameos in bulk likely due to his age.

Alternatively, or if he had only completed some of his lines, they could use a mix of Rickles and a replacement VA, like what happened with Laverne in The Hunchback of Notre Dame. While there's precedent for both removal and replacement (Wheezy was removed while Slinky was replaced), Mr. Potato Head is too important to cut completely, so I don't think he'd be written out.

Atus had this because Igor VA died so what they did was get the new va to do his lines bit then after a climactic part of P5, the reused Igors old lines

(Reads Title)

I just want people to know that despite my frequent use of MLP avatars, I always admired Toy Story as a kid, especially Mr Potato Head, Don Rickles' character in the three movies so far. I don't think I've ever seen anything else featuring him, but still this news is pretty sad.

Pixar undoubtedly will miss him.

 

[Z25]

Man its a shame to hear that, R.I.P. Don Rickles.

Now for something else.

Today's Pokemon anime episode is also pretty sad:

Spoiler

Stountland dies leaving litten by itself, who Ash then offers to join him and it accepts.

I don't mean in a way that abruptly cuts him.

It's not the best comparison, but when Chef's VA for South Park passed away, they wrote a little story to kill the actual character off and explain his absence from the series going forward.

That was obviously handled in a more morbid way because that's what South Park is like, but they could probably do something similar here, maybe at the end of the film. Maybe have it that somehow, Mr. Potato Head ends up with a different owner, maybe a kid that really likes him. If they wanted to be real cool about it, maybe they could model a human character after Don Rickles and have Mr. Potato Head end up in his possession, explaining his absence in future Toy Story films if they decide to make any.

Also what @Shishœ suggested was pretty effective too.

Of course I could be over-thinking this, but I think this could add an extra layer of meaning to the film if they do something like this.

Question for those who play Fire Emblem Heroes, since I thought it could be fun to ask.

How many heroes with summoning cutscenes have you summoned? These include Marth, Young Tiki, Roy, Lyn, Lucina, Robin, Camilla, and Takumi.

Figured I'd ask since I summoned Camilla today while going for Frederick. So I have her, Marth, and Robin.
