I'm so sorry if I'm swearing a lot, but good lord man.

Good ****ing lord.

First THAT THING happens to me weeks ago, then my IRL friendships are in danger even when I do nothing wrong, now Shiny may be in some sort of serious trouble and I don't know what will happen next.

This is legit too much for me to handle all at once.
Hey man, I think you should take a moment to relax. Maybe take a walk, play a game, just do something you enjoy that’ll keep your mind occupied. I’m sorry this happened to you.

I'm gonna try to talk to her now, and maybe anyone else who knows her though she's being a bit cryptic. Again she's a teenager so she might be overblowing it but who knows, I'm not great at these kind of things.

A few of us can handle that, while you can try your best at thinking about IRL, take a bit of load off.

SUGGESTIONS GUYS, THAT'S THE DEAL.

I say "I got $50 in eshop money" and you guys go "Oh, buy these games." That's how it goes on this site.
Lots of Final Fantasy titles are on sale if you like RPGs.

Mario Rabbids Kingdom Battle is on sale.

Snake Pass is a fun little indie puzzle platformer that's $5 right now.

I could probably think up more in a minute.

You should try to distract yourself and relax a bit, as hard as it might sound. Getting that stressed out isn't healthy and helps nobody. Sometimes it's best to take a step back and try to approach things with a clear(er) head. And for what it's worth, this place will always lend an ear if you need that.

OH OH also, Tales of Vesperia is only $12 right now.

If any of y'all are interested in RPGs, please give this game a shot: It's legit amazing.

I remember a time where I had a laptop that couldn't even play Worms 3d. At least Recettear worked, that is until I got a dungeon which had fog effects. Then it became unplayable with like 5FPS.

Luckily those days are long gone, now I can actually play more than just Minesweeper. I am slightly nostalgic for that time period, played a lot of Doujin game back then. It was also the time when I got into Touhou.

Well what type of games do you tend to like? If you list off your fav Switch games that you've already played, we will know what games not to suggest (because you own them already) & what to suggest (because we would have some indication of your tastes).
My favorites games that came out on the Switch this year are Hades, Ori and the Will of the Wisps, and Bug Fables.

I’m tempted to buy all 4 Danganronpa games and a few Ace Attorney games on Steam but I’ve already spoiled the entirety of all of them so that would just be a huge waste of money

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is a superb platformer.

Undertale if you’re a degenerate.

A crap ton of Final Fantasy games are on the switch, if you’re into that.

Mario 3D All Stars is gonna be Thanos snapped form existence in a few months, if you don’t have it already.

Out of everything I got I’m most surprised about getting Link’s Awakening. I don’t recall expressing... really anything about it to my parents.

Still a game’s a game. Might play it sometime but I’m already trying to blaze through Age of Calamity so it’ll be awhile I assume.

I also now have more money than I know what to with. There’s alot of stuff on my bucket list that I want to get but I’m not sure what I actually should get.
Maybe start playing it right now its relativly Short and Easy and believe me you dont want the Plot twist Spoiled!

Noipoi Noipoi I got some money from family this morning, and I'm maaaaaaybe thinkin' about that Pokemon SwSh DLC 'cause I adored the base game and it'd give me an excuse to revisit the game for a Nuzlocke.

How was it? Was it good? 👀

Nothing better to end christmas on a party of UNO with your family and cursing each other names after a +2/+4/+16.

Yes, someone got +16, and it was both a tragedy & a comedy.

It’s better than the base game.

The Isle of Armor is pretty fun. It’s not too meaty but having a new wild area is great. The story isn’t anything special but the characters are really funny (particularly Klara, I feel bad for Shield users who don’t get to experience her. The best line of dialogue in the game comes from her.). There’s honestly not much to say, it’s just very fun.

The Crown Tundra on the other hand, is actually pretty great. The whole tundra is open to explore, and while there’s a bit of story you have to take care of, for the most part your left to explore and discover the legendaries at your own leisure. Once again the characters are very charming, the exploration is engaging, the snow capped forests are probably the best Sword and Shield has ever looked. And it gives me hope that the next generation will be fully open world.

If you enjoyed the base game, you’ll definitely enjoy the dlc.

SharkLord SharkLord I’m gonna need a review from you whenever you finish Atelier Ryza to see if I should nab it with my extra Eshop money if it ever goes on sale. You’re my RPG guru after recommending Ys VIII lmao

Also here is a pic of my favorite gift for all to admire:

Why is Igor's voice so deep. I thought he'd sound like va somewhat less extreme Waluigi.
Poor guy's just trying to be taken more seriously now, which is difficult with a nose like this. Margaret even made a song about it. Look at Igor, it hit him hard.

I finally beat both TLOU 1 and 2...and I gotta say...

first off
  • Joel did deserve to die despite his intentions
  • **** Abby for putting me through hell
  • **** Abby for willingly wanting to kill a pregnant woman
  • **** Abby for even starting all this mess
  • Yet I love you Laura Bailey, you're my girl...not in a relationship way but I'll simp for her Black Widow (I mean come on...it's Black Widow) and Lucina
  • **** WLF
  • Lev...legit didn't realize he was trans cause oblivious
  • Ellie really gave up eveything to kill Abby just to not kill her
  • now she has no girl, no child, and no friends
  • Ending made no full sense. Didn't even attempt to say she forgave Joel
  • STOP WANTING ME KILL DOGS!!!!
  • and last but not least...Ellie kinda cool tho. She ain't no Clementine since Clem is unstoppable, but she definitely holds her own compared to most.
Now that I'm done...I CAN FINALLY GET BACK TO REFINISHING MILES MORALES LET'S ****ING TWIIIIIIIIIIIIP!!!!

Thank you so much for the info! I'm torn between the DLC or maybe grabbing one of the Final Fantasy games on sale (namely the X-X2 collection), so I'll be sure to keep what you said in mind. :)

Hey! Hey you, reading this post!

I am willing to share my vast knowledge about the cosmos with you as a gift for Christmas, but only if you ask your all-important questions in this thread!

So get to it before I am forced to post cursed images to coerce you all into it!
