Social THE Social Thread 2.0

[Mushroomguy12]

I get a short burst of renewed interest in posting here but that quickly fades away and depression kicks in again once I realize I'm still wasting my time on this obscure forum for a children's party game.

Stop being so likeable, you assholes.

I would say (and I'd imagine there are others that agree) that Smashboards has certainly at least helped a little in terms of not going insane during lockdown and the reduced/lack of in person social events in life.

3 dollars? Now, that's a good dill.

I swear to god I am this close

I didn’t have a social life anyway. It’s been business on usual in my end.

Ive accepted that I’ll die alone and unwed.

After half an hour of straight chain breeding, I have finally gotten the best Corsola moveset known to man! Behold!

Perfection! Yes it can learn all this ****

Unless you've always been an introvert, like I am.

Then nothing really changed.

He's got a good point.

I wouldn't say that man.

Back from the second day of the South Carolina Comicon. Tired but had a great time.

The only thing I bought today was a Super Smash Bros. mystery box which I haven't opened yet.

 

[Wademan94]

this just screams early 90s ngl

It actually came out in 2000

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Gonna watch In the Earth (2021). Hopefully this will cleanse my mind of the dreaded Tom & Jerry I just watched earlier today.

It truly was the end of the world

To be fair as much as I like ranking by consoles.......I might do a ranking by games. Remind the website you guys are using for the rankings?

Like my categories list for anime.

Oh god yes on that one.

Well helped a lot considering my options.

I'm an introvert who wants to interact more but with the people he knows. Like you guys I'd be comfortable to do voice chat and play games or talk about stuff but that's it.

Same with IRL friends. I'd be up for meeting and stuff but going to their houses is like nope. People are like lose control of it all but that's not want I'm trying to do.

I didn’t have a social life anyway. It’s been business on usual in my end.
Ive accepted that I’ll die alone and unwed.

I've accepted that I'll die doing something stupid while travelling. Alone? Probably but hey I didn't choose the life. The life choose me. cool hipster pose time

Ive never read something so relatable online.

I'm an introvert too, but even I enjoyed going out every so once in a while.

Hence why I was relatively OK the first couple months, but time takes its toll on everyone eventually.

 

[KingBooGengar57]

I remember when I was absolutely obsessed with FNAF. But, I play FF now.

Nope, still no pickles.

You lift up his tongue and you get buried by a bunch of pickles.

And one car key.

They're using TierMaker. It comes with preset templates, but you should be able to create your own template.

I'm an introvert but I enjoy going out dude. I mean I consider cycling my hobby.

I'm just very introverted around people except online and only like talking to people I'm comfortable with.

 

[Aurane]

I must be a super introvert, cause the lockdown was the best thing that ever happened to me social-wise.

You and me both.

 

[Hat N' Clogs]

I'm an extrovert. Thus, the lockdown has been a nightmare for me. But, I'm pulling through... I hope. It's honestly been extremely hard on my mental health, but since things are less closed down in 2021 than they were in 2020, things are a little easier atm.

 

[Guynamednelson]

I'm glad I still get to at least get out 4 days a week, even if it took months for that to finally happen.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Here's my Super Smash Bros. mystery box.

Opening SOON™!

So since we were on the topic of emulation and paying full price for games and stuff, what's your thoughts in this?

I mean, don't be that person that pirates new enough releases where developers actually get hurt, but I think in general there are bigger things at play as to why new releases don't do as well as they might otherwise; except for the Nintendo DS which was pirated to hell and back. People have always complained about prices, and given inflation I don't think it's that so much as:

1. Social Media "spoiling" a lot of games. Surprises are hard to do these days. You get a full look at a game before paying for it.
2. Many games no longer truly shipping "complete."
3. F2P games being easily available and offering hard competition for player time.
4. Exclusivity slowing dying out both between companies & systems.
5. Digital releases allow companies to have full control over the prices of games so flash sales are a short term waiting game for consumers.
6. Game ownership. Granted some are fine with this given the popularity of Digital, but why pay in full for a game you might not truly own?

There is probably more but this is what I can come up with without resorting to hard hot takes as someone who doesn't buy AAA games not made by Nintendo.

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Which would be a better representation of Resident Evil and Silent Hill for my PlayStation All-Stars Roster?

Spoiler: For Resident Evil

Jill and Chris (echo fighter equivalent) with Chris and Leon alts

or

Nemesis T-Type

Spoiler: For Silent Hill

Pyramidhead

or

One of the protagonists (if so which one)

Please choose which combination would represent both series AND their rivalry.

it’s pretty fun. As long as you wipe all knowledge of the first few Paper Mario’s from your mind, you’ll have a pretty good time. Though it’s not without its frustrations.

I think what we need to do is stop asking for new Paper Mario’s and instead ask for new Mario RPGs.

 

[Mushroomguy12]

This legit sounds like a theme that would play at a Cowboy/Western themed area at Super Nintendo World.

Alphadream’s down, man. The fate of the Mario & Luigi series is up in the air. And those games weren’t doing too hot lately either.

Unless you mean the square Mario RPG, in which case, never gonna happen.

I did. And never say never. We do live in an infinite universe.

• Paper Mario drastically scales back character design variation and is never going to be an RPG again.
• AlphaDream's bankrupt, so Mario & Luigi is dead too.
• Super Mario RPG sequel - happening never ever.

Both square and Nintendo have zero incentive to collaborate on that level ever again. If that ever changes, then maybe. But it’s not changing any time soon.

Time to open the box!
