May not be online for almost a full month, as someone managed to dateline the AOC demo and I'd like to experience the game unspoiled.

Before I go, happy belated birthday @JDCabrera!
What does "dateline" mean in this context if you don't mind me asking? Can't seem to find any info through google.

I don't know who that is.

Zero Two isn't a super deep character by any means but her arc was still satisfying enough to me...barring the last few episodes. Her JPN voice actress also did an incredible job, IMO.

And Hiro002 is super cute.
Urusei Yatsura was a highly influential anime, but not everyone knows what it is because it's also quite old. DITF even has some references to it. The main things Zero Two borrowed from Lum were the horns, the makeup, the fangs, and loving the protagonist of the show, who she always calls "Darling".

A sad, sad place... may I have hugs? <3
So, I'm curious. What were some of y'all's first games? I remember mine being Little Big Planet, can't recall which one Animal Crossing: New Leaf, and Minecraft.
I have vague memories of playing games like Donkey Konga, Super Monkey Ball and Mario 64 from when I was around 2 or 3 years old, as well as a racing game I've forgotten the name of.

That's pretty interesting.

Gonna download the Age of Calamity demo later. It is probably my most wanted game for the rest of the year. Breath of the Wid is my favorite game of all time, so the fact we're getting a sequel AND prequel is awesome.

Mega Man X on the Super Nintendo and one of the Zelda games available on the GameCube collection that included the NES games, Ocarina of Time, and Majora's Mask (I want to say I started with the original but I'm not sure).

Crap. Despite all my commitment towards not spoiling AoC for myself, I never considered the possibility of the demo being datamined. This has happened before with Nintendo: for example, I remember that the demo for Mario Tennis Aces contained pretty much the full game. I think I'll manage to avoid spoilers regardless of this datamine, though.

the king, hestu, kohga, the egg guardian, maz koshia and even some that aren't really a thing yet at that point in the timeline like the champions' successors
Oh yeah! That's neat. Any leaks on who the mystery villain is? Is it Vaati or Yuga like some were speculating?

Super Mario RPG, Kirby Super Star, Pokemon Red, and Wario Land 2.

I got a hand-me-down SNES from my cousins, so we got a bunch of games at once (Super Mario World, DKC1-3, Super Street Fighter 2, Mortal Kombat 1-3, etc.), but those were the first games that I remember playing all the way through.

I really want a transgender character in Mortal Kombat... though I have no idea how they would approach the concept.
Now that you mentioned it.

I would love for an Australian Aboriginal character for any fighting game whether Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Soulcalibur, Tekken, etc.

Just tried Arkham and....

Yup, his fight is as much of a cancer as I thought.

I have zero ideas if playing of freestyle give you any real big advantage beside the more obvious stuff, but suffice to say, unless I use items, i'm not going to enjoy this at all.

Just found out there was a Nintendo Partner's Showcase (why did no one tell me?) and it was OK? Not gonna lie, seeing it open with Bravely Default without even any lip synching was an experience.
Hitman 3 coming to Switch was a surprise, but I can't even imagine playing a stealth game with Joy-Cons. And it being streaming only is just a no deal for me.
Immortal Fenyx Rising sounded interesting at first, until I learned it was yet another open world Ubisoft game.
Tropico 6 looked... bad? Maybe it was the video quality, but I think it looked pretty bad. Game itself is alright though.
Story of Seasons is Story of Seasons, alright. Nothing much to say.
I completely forgot about Part Time UFO, seems like a fun time waster though.
And lastly, No More Heroes had another absurd trailer and I love it.

Oh and Zelda was there, too, I guess.

If this is really the hard truth, then...

I just can't imagine what he had to go through ever since the day where he lost basically everything he worked & all the friends he made along hte way

I'm going to keep a open mind on this just in case more info come out that make the case more complicate, but if all he said is true (Void & Cosmos are supporting Nairo's claim, so take that as you will), then....


.....I don't ****ing know anymore man.

This is just too much to think & handle at once.
And on top of that, if Nairo is telling the truth, then Samsora and Salem have a lot of speaking to do

Can't say too much since my brain is wasted due to DMD kicking me in the fireballs, but yeah, it ain't going to be pretty no matter what happen.

Remember when our worst problems was peoples believing Gothielle was going to be a playable character due to a ""leak""? I miss those times.

So I just finished all of the gameplay sections you can do in the demo of AOC...

The pacing is all over the place(probably because of how different this is from other Warriors game, having played a few of em) but I'm excited for the game. There were a few times where the frames dropped like hell though(like going from 60->20 frames whenever I bombed a bunch of crap at once) but it's pretty minor and nothing game-breaking.

Also I love how Link just rapid fires arrows on land, but becomes a ****ing bow machine gun if you fire while airborne lol

Oh yeah, if predators get kicked out there, I ain't going to complain.

I just don't wanna to see another case like Nairo's case is this community, like let's wait until we get all the details before we call the shot, ya know?
Think it be my final post on the topic, since it's late here.

On that said, have a good night folks, and remember:

Arkham is ****ing bull****, both the place in DC Comic & the boss in DMC.

This has a lot of potential:
at this rate, all future Cartoon Network made shows will be HBO Max exclusives

So I beat most of the Crown Tundra story. Hunting Regidrago now then going for Regiggias. I can say that I really want every future game to play just like Crown Tundra.

Sidequests for the legends, optional lore, a bit expansion region and then touch up the graphics and I would be pretty happy.

I hear the ending for CT is pretty good but I’ll have to wait and see that.

I hope the rumored Switch Pro isn't docked only. Love being able to play my Switch portably as well as docked. Don't have much interest in picking up the Xbox Series X or PS5 right away, so Switch Pro may be my first ninth generation console.

Crown Tundra is definitely carrying Gen 8 hard lol
Now all of you are making me want to play SwSh again. I played it for five hours and I got very bored of it, but I have the DLC, and Crown Tundra does look good from what I here.

Too bad I am stuck in Minecraft.
