Finally finished all the levels in Doom 1 on switch.

My hands are broken from so much intense gaming, especially on the later levels, but dang man. Does it feel ****ing good when you finally nail a level after so much deaths & fails. idk when I start playing Doom 1, but I say that, frustration at time aside, this was very worth it.

Wasn't Pixar mad at Disney sending their movies straight to streaming, and they're doing it for a fourth time? Given that Pixar movies are generally higher quality than Disney ones, I'm surprised they haven't been sending them to streaming and putting Pixar in theaters.
Its actually their third time since Soul, Luca and now Turning Red are the only films that had headed straight to streaming. Either ways, I am pretty certain Pixar will want more questions and answers with Bob Chapek regarding this decision.

Chapek's already made a serious mess last year with Black Widow (plus Scarlet Johanson) and this really is going to be a concern whether he is the right person to guide Disney going forward.

I feel like there's only 3 topics people talk about on this thread:

Marvel movies, mocking people who hate the New Pokemon games and horny posting.
Post Smash, no Direct announcement so it's quiet. Oh and it's early in the day for our friends in the Americanos lands so us Europeans (like my dear Irish self) and the very early bird in the Americas.

You must be new here chief.

All this talk about nothing happening in January and here I am, studying for my finals and even had one a few days ago.
Well you have moral support from us and I hope you make it. I'll always be able to look out for you here and Discord.

Meanwhile for me I'm swamped in data science classes and a lot of internal pressure on myself to actually make some decent changes to my life. Like needing to adult 10 years in 1 sort of thing.

Stress is a *****.

Hey, we meme and make fun of Sonic too.
And anime talk too.

Nice........................................................................

Would it?

I'd feel like we'd just be discussing the same big names that were prominent throughout Ultimate's speculation and whatever recent Nintendo games with reasonable character choices could get in.
Yeah sure.
Smash and Mario Kart are huge Titles and the fans are curious what kind of content games they have.
You see, Mario Kart Crossroads leak exploded out nowhere and everyone starts discussing about it.

Think more the only reason dude people still talk a lot here is more to do with how people find it easier than say Discord. That and people on this thread are like legit for the most part friends or something.

Outside of the odd night playing Smash I don't touch the game anymore. Should play again though with you guys.

Eh, I expect some surprises. Ultimate speculation had some shoo-in characters' support drop like a rock. It's hard to say what the future will bring.

...except Fire Emblem debate, it's here to stay.

I'm pretty old school so I will say that forums are more comfortable than these messaging apps for me.

And I still play Smash here and there but that's because I like to think I'm pretty decent at the game and don't want to get too rusty.

Eh, I'm perfectly fine with Discord, it's TikTok, Twitter, etc. I don't wanna bother with.

Really I think I only still browse this thread out of instinct more than anything else.

I mean, we could start getting more personal, but I don't think anyone wants that. Let's just wait until another Direct or something, we'll have more things to talk about then.

That said, bullying Pokemon fans is always morally correct.
Oh my God, if they added Sonic into Mario kart crossroads, I would destroy to purpose of Mario and Sonic games, which it would cause a huge backlash of derailing Mario and Sonic from Sports games into Racing game.
Plus, it would be Insult towards Mario and Sonic games.
This makes no sense.

I'm honestly still in the camp of fine with Smash Bros being fully done as a series or a long dormancy.

Like announcement trailer 2028 or something.

So about two years after the end of the world/brave new world I suppose.

Eh, I'm perfectly fine with Discord, it's TikTok, Twitter, etc. I don't wanna bother with.
Discord, SB, good old mobile texting is fine for friends and stuff. Reddit ok for news and stuff. Outlook and Zoom/Microsoft Teams is fine for business.

Everything else is very ****.

I'm pretty old school so I will say that forums are more comfortable than these messaging apps for me.
Your one of the reasons why I haven't left the forum honestly when almost everyone in our corner of the social does use Discord.

So yeah, keeping me hostage.

Define getting more "personal" good sir.

Yeah, it shouldn't make any sense:
1. Sonic has already a racing game and it would be insult for SEGA Allstars that Sonic ditched SEGA Allstars for Red Plumber racing game.
2. Sonic and Mario are already in Smash and it would derail their friendship in Racing Game.

Nobody actually cares about the Olympic games that much lol.
Yeah and what?
Are you trying to prove that Sonic and Mario can meet again in Mario Kart?

Sonic’s in Smash, does that count as an insult?

Like, I know we all talk about personal life and personal problems, but like, I guess we can start taking everything we all say way too personally or start sharing way too much to the point it gets uncomfy and **** idk it made sense when I just woke up idk how to describe it now.

Mario and Sonic appearing in more games together would derail their friendship…

Weird take.

Also I don’t think Sonic guest appearing in another racing game would mean Sega abandoning their racing games

Bruh what? They're not real, you're acting like Sonic personally betrayed his hometown and slaightered the All Stars Racing cast to get into Mario Kart.

Here's the 50th demon I made for this series because having a life is overrated.

DAILY DEMON SHOWCASE

This showcase's demon is of the Element race:

1641654175742.png


“I’m Element Sylph. Can you tell me where is this place?”

Alignment: Light-Neutral

Origin: Occult mythology. An elemental air spirit originated from the works of Paracelsus. The word sylph is a possible combination of “nympha” and “silvestris”, meaning forest nymph. They are invisible but taller and stronger than humans, yet are the elemental spirit most similar to them in nature due to their interaction with air and other elements. Due to their use in stage fiction, they are commonly associated with fairies.

Skills: Zan, Dia, Hysterical Slap

Next time, you will meet a demon of the Herald race.

Unlike other elementals, Sylph is detached from their depiction in Paracelsus’s writings and looks just like a common pixie. I can’t say it’s a bad design as I dig the use of green and her big ears but it’s quite a plain demon. Her humanoid look makes sense in the context, though, as Paracelsus described sylphs as very similar to humans since elements move in their habitat like humans move in air and sylph’s habitat is… well, air. Though, she’s the exact opposite of the “bigger, courser human” thing. Oh well. Moveset wise, she always learns wind/force skills and less commonly healing ones. Don’t let her dainty looks fool you, she’s usually one of the higher-ranking elements.

I need to make more of an effort to use Discord but I just haven't been vibing with it.
I meant it more like a joke dude but I vibe with you better than most here. Keep telling myself to make changes to the server I run and add more people but I'm too demotivated.

You cool.

Like, I know we all talk about personal life and personal problems, but like, I guess we can start taking everything we all say way too personally or start sharing way too much to the point it gets uncomfy and **** idk it made sense when I just woke up idk how to describe it now.
I'm fine with that but I don't want to share too openly in this place where the guests can go "ooooooooooh" and "ahhhhhhhhhhhh" like a Dr Phil episode.

On a small pm chat or Discord server where everyone knows people here and only some people from here is fine. IDK the most personal would be like your first name (very few), where you from and all that stuff but keep to that. Voice chat if you really wish yadda yadda.

Personal lite is fine but even I'm trying to cut back on the too personal bar the ones I'm closest to.

If Sonic can have that Sonic The Fighters and also be in Smash, I don't see why he can't have Sonic All-Stars Racing and not be in Mario Kart. It wouldn't be an insult, it'd just be a crossover. There's not much to read between the lines there.
Dude, I can explain.
Sonic in Mario Kart is the path where Sonic SEGA Allstars racing Racing would become useless and SEGA would slowly stop making SEGA Allstars Crossovers due to Sonic being in Nintendo games like Smash.
And Sonic can't be another Ryu, where he is in every game.

I'm not going to feed the troll but while we're on the topic, I hope SEGA returns doing crossover games for their franchises.

There are enough requests for at least another racing game and the last one was a short-lived mobile game so I think we're kinda overdue for one. And this is where I shill the Battle of AGES thread

Tbf there could be talks about new mechanics, modes, veteran changes, new stages, items, ATs, etc but whenever I checked that thread for ****s and giggles it's just arguing about cutting those dastardly third parties so that my special favourite D lister has a chance instead of literally anything else that a new game would bring
