My father allowed me to take his PayPal account for half an hour to pick the other two DQ games:

That sure was a surreal experience since he seriously doesn't like losing money. He even said me "maybe more Next week".

Time to grind the E4 some more to be able to afford all those steroids. I love G-Max Meowth.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Eh usual here.

I'm actually the only unhealthy one in my family. They're fine but my only weakness is my immune system isn't as great.

I'm more pissed off than anything.

Stay safe my friend. I have faith you'll pull through this.

How is Dragon Quest 3 on Switch? How does it improve on the original? And most importantly, what does the soundtrack sound like? Is it the garbage MIDI like it is Smash, or the awesome SNES OST?

I think It is some sort of orchestrated music for DQ1, but I can't say for sure since I could easily be wrong.

DQ1 seems to play fine for me so far.

Dude I'll be grand.

On the bright side I've made a list of games and anime to go through in case of lockdown and only go out for a caffeine run.

That's my tip to you guys who places aren't in lockdown. Have the one long game or show to save for.




So far that's what I'll be doing. MHA and SoulSilver. More soon.

Metal Shop X Tako Tuesday I noticed your conversation earlier and I remembered that I wanted to try and draw my own version of Sonic recently. I’ll work on it tonight and I wondered if it’d be okay if I tagged you both in it. Don’t expect it to be too drastic.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Given I won't be going to any public places for the next two weeks. I'll be staying home more aside from taking the dogs to the dog park, for walks and to hiking trails.

Also gives me more time to watch shows and movies, read, and play video games (Gotta get to Okami soon and try Spawn in MK11).

 

[Tako Tuesday]

Again on toilet paper, what ALSO grinds my gears is how there was no shortage in supply at all, despite fears, until the PEOPLE caused one with their irrational fears and lack of ability to do basic research. Like why the hell do you need to stock up on it now anyway? What did you wipe your ass with before? Your hands?

And now thanks to their stupidity, there's no TP available for those of us who actually need it, since you can't even walk in a damn store without seeing that the whole isle is bloody empty. And now Kleenex is sold out too, because since all the butt paper is gone, you have to resort to Kleenex. **** Covid, and **** human stupidity. Rant over.

Can you tag me, too, if you don’t mind?

Guys this is going to sound philosophical but I've had a stupid realisation.

No matter how bad this virus is going to get, the sun is still going to shine, the moon is still going around the earth, we are still a ball of rock in the universe.

Was watching a few clips from zombie films and noticed the grittiness of it but it's still going to be sunny in places unlike what movies show.

I'd like to be tagged! I'm also planning on drawing a Sonic redesign. I don't have a lot of experience drawing Sonic though, but I'll see what I can do.

 

[Z25]

COVID: I won't stop until I cancel the earth! Except I'm not gonna cancel the earth, I'm gonna go higher! I'm canceling the MOON!!! How do like that Obama? I cancelled the moon you IDIOT! You have 23 hours until the virus hits the ******* earth, now get out of my ******* sight before I cancel you too!

Who would have thought this was how it all ended

Sure, tag me in once it's done.

As for his blue arms, yeah I do agree that the color balance with tan arms works better for the games, especially the classics where his arms would be really hard to see if they were blue, since they'd blend in with the rest of his body.

However, I do like the look of blue arms in general because it just makes more sense. Why do his arms look hairless normally? Especially compared to the other characters which generally have arms that match the rest of there fur. I think Sonic Boom pulled off blue arms on a modern Sonic design really well tbh. But on the whole, the color of his arms doesn't really matter to me either way, I think he looks good with either color.

His separate eyes I think add to his cuteness in the movie, and would be interesting to see in the games even though I doubt they'll do it. The only other characters with uni-eyes are the other hedgehogs though, so if they did want to make the change there'd only be a handful of others to change as well.

A bigger part of his cuteness however, is his pupils. There much bigger in the movie, and I think that is key to making a cuter Sonic. That, and his eyes take less space on his head than in the games, which I also like.

In conclusion, I think my ideal Sonic should take elements of the movie design, but also keep elements of his game design. Let's say he keeps his tan arms and connected eyes, but gets slightly smaller eyes and bigger pupils, as well as being shorter in height. I'd love that.

Hmm, I can't give a meaningful discussion since it's late here and I'm tired, but I will say that Sonic design can be change a bit and still look good & faithful to the previous one. I guess it just depend of the execution.

All to say is, if you ever draw your ideal design of Sonic, I like to see it when it's done.

YouTube recommended this to me for some reason, and hoo boy I’m glad it did.

Possibility 1:

That’s his girlfriend, they’re actually perfectly fine, she just has a naturally grumpy face.

Possibility 2:

He’s trying to flirt, failing terribly, and she’s two seconds from breaking his neck.

DQ3 switch is basically the mobile version with different (IMO worse) art style and the mobile version is basically the SNES version in the modern (IMO better) localization style. I think it has the MIDI soundtrack but IDK. DQ3 has really been done dirty in its remakes; the GBC version has more content that has yet to come back.

This guy just looks like the type of person to flirt horribly.

THICC FAT BABY FRENCHIES

Those words are making me uncomfortable somehow

 

[Megadoomer]

I'm about to start the Rise dungeon for Persona 4. Going by the social guide that I've been following, I'm behind on some social links, but WAY ahead on others (I've been focusing on party members, the fox (since being able to heal/restore SP in the dungeons seems extremely useful), Nanako, and Dojima, since non-party members don't give bonuses like they do in Persona 5, and many of the non-party members in this game don't interest me), so I'd say that I'm doing pretty well.

Idk, if anything, he's snapping her neck considering how strong his hold is.

 

[Knight Dude]

That Blue Fire game looks kind of cool. Most of the other games they showed were point and click-ish/adventure games with artstyles I didn't like much. And a couple of okay-ish ones. But that's bound to happen since most indie titles haven't been up my alley lately.

I AM looking forward to either Cyber Shadow or Bushiden however.

If how you talk with your pet doesn't make strangers uncomfortable, you're doing it wrong.

That's pretty much how I was minus the Fox. I just didn't bother with him because doing his chores was boring.

Plus by late game, you'll be able to grind enough money in a single run to pay off his rates so you can do more grinding. I guess making it cheaper doesn't hurt either way.

Oh yeah, so I'm out of a job for 12 days now...

This COVID thing is just... wild dude. I feel like in a post apocalyptic movie and this is the first act...

Edit: if anyone else is dealing with this applying for Unemployment isn't a bad thing. The government is being very lenient with it apparently.

Yeah, anyone trying to look for a job around this time isn't going to have the best of luck unfortunately. But we'll get through this.

xD What did I just listen to? And what the heck. I was not expecting that. Ah, it makes me wish I had the motivation enough to do something for St.Patrick's Day but, it is gone. :'( Which saddens me. Ah, maybe for next year.

Seriously, the removal of the usage limit on those vitamins is such an improvement over past generations, where you had to grind for BP to buy those EV enhancing items and then do tedious grinding, especially when you don't have access to Pokerus. And while those horde battles in XY were fine, albeit laggy, the SOS mechanic in Gen 7 was just horrible.

Now you can just fully train a Pokemon with by paying 500k and a single battle with G-Max Meowth gives >100k. Just run through the league twice and you made over half a million in 10-20 minutes.

Spoiler: Or in other words
