Well, I've recovered from the food poisoning.

Resurfaced anorexic tendencies, I've underestimated the prior experiences with this. I guess I need to be taught to eat a healthy balanced meal daily, instead of feeling disgust from that, by eating really light, and then doing intense workouts that have my body very exhausted.

I've always lived from one extreme to another on this subject by either letting myself go or maintaining being underweight.

Let's see what a professional has to say today. Should I recover from this, I hope to convince people to never consider this path. Social media would be start, though, it hard to distinguish the genuine ones from the liars.

She's his ancestor.
I had a joke there but it was too racy for the mods so they cut it out. But knowing it’s his ancestor is interesting. I thought it was a multiverse thing.

Also, Lyta Hall, in the comics, is Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor’s daughter who married Hawkman and Hawkgirl’s son. Lyta is short for Hippolyta (named after her grandma) so her appearing here and with her married name is interesting....

Kirby Howell-Baptiste is a great actress, I'm looking forward to seeing her take on Death.

Also, wow, fanboys are really getting angry because of the "girl Constantine". Goes to show how little they know.
Personally I can't wait for the fake outrage over a non-binary person playing a non-binary character that regularly shifts forms

That's how she was called in the comics.

Without giving spoilers, her marriage is a pretty major plot point.

Polish is done last in game dev from what I’ve read (makes sense, can’t polish what’s not there), and we don’t really know much about Legends’s world, so I’d wait until newer footage or something to worry. At least some spots already look good, and I don’t get why people on twitter keep raging with some actually trying to argue it looks just like the Gamecube’s graphics lol.

yeah the SwSh wild area was kinda bland (still liked it but yeah) and had its trees, but they seemed to get better with DLC so idk.

Haven't commented here in a while (life has been busy), but I just saw the box art for Pokemon Brilliant Diamond / Shining Pearl:

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Yep, this is honestly my favorite boxart of any main series Pokemon game so far. Dialga and Palkia's models on it look so detailed and epic!

Did not know they also showcased the box art for Pokemon Legends: Arceus until I came across this thread, but I am liking that one too. It captures that old-Japan look the game is going for.

November 19th release date for BDSP is pretty much what I expected, but Legends releasing in January is a surprise. I was expecting more of a February/March release when they said it would release in early 2022.
This box art honestly doesn’t feel final to me even if it’s not terrible. It’s mainly the background that is kind of odd contrasted to the colors of the legends.

Also the glowing still makes me think new forms are happening.
Only a two month gap is just crazy and unexpected.

Nintendo still owes us their E3 plans.
At this point, I wouldn’t be surprised if they just announce the E3 direct like two days before at that’s it.

Legends Arceus in January...that’s a bit earlier than I was hoping. Not gonna lie, that has me just a little worried. But still, that build we saw was from December 2020, the game was in a pretty early state when we saw it. And polish is usually one of the last things that happens in game development, so uh...

Please don’t screw this up

More games should allow for both a male and female option for their protagonist.
I'd agree but doubling the amount of work you need for the protagonist is not feasible for every developer.

I know games like OMORI and Persona had plans to include gender options during development and had to cut it because it was too much work.
