if Atlus were to know better for their newest of anniversaries for Persona...they would force Smash to add in another rep


since that won't likely happen...but if it did...and besides the GOATED Makoto Niijima/Queen...who would y'all pick to represent the Persona/SMT franchise alongside Joker?

Personal bias: Labrys so we can some damn Persona 4 Arena music plus she's awesome.

Or since sort of SMT but Tsubasa Oribe from Tokyo Mirage Sessions. Tokyo concert stage, great music, proper spear user etc.

I'm so surprised that game is only represented by only one spirit.

good morning ya’ll

Good morning starshine. The earth says hello.

Anyone who gets the reference will get a victory theme.

I mean yeah. And I would love to make games. But it's also like... not as special? Like... if you make a game yourself, you know everything about it already ya know? There's no discovery, there's no fresh experience.

this is one of the few rare times where I kinda agree with you Snake.

Maybe a bit of disagreement on “not being able to get any enjoyment period”(I personally find the joy is in watching others enjoy your creation) but I do agree with your sentiment.

Ok, so I talked It with two administrators from a server I frequented too, and I took the decission to delete the Discord application from my phone until I feel better with myself and depression isn't hitting me hard.

Depression and anxiety were making me act in ways I wasn't proud of just like It happened over here during the Game Awards of 2018, and just like back then I was about to take my online reputation to **** if I kept letting feelings get the worst of me.

It is something really serious I should work with alongside a psychologist, because It isn't just hurting me, but also the people around me online who have no fault for my IRL issues and actually just want to help.

 

[Deleted member]

You're right, but slight counterpoint: It's a cool skill to have.

It’s all fun and games until you spent 5 hours fixing bugs, only for more bugs to crop up the next morning


Game design is the easy part. Bringing it to life is one behemoth of a task.

Or just leave the servers you were having an issue with........ then bookmark them somewhere on a password protected app.

And with surely wouldn't be surprised of another lockdown going on globally before the vaccine cause of the UK and South African variants, most people won't be going out as much.

Just saying as a friend's opinion.

Nah, leaving wasn't the right answer.

People over there were genuiely trying to help me but my anxiety and depression clouded my mind so much I just didn't see It and thought something else entirely.

It is better to just leave Discord for a long while until depression and anxiety stop clouding my mind with so many negative feelings that I can't differentiate people trying to help me from people who want to laugh at me.

Been thinking about doing the same over here too, but these past days It does seem It isn't as bad here as It was during 2018 and 2019 ever since I became open to talking It all out.

I just think the "I'll delete everything social" isn't the best route when it's better suited to doing it for a few days or so. I think it's more you need to approach things with a new mindset and that's the psychiatrist comes in which is what I'm doing as well this month.
And to be honest without saying too much in the open but from knowing you, I wouldn't be surprised if the root of it all is family related subconsciously.

And if it is, try and see about family therapy.

It's how I've pointed out my view of you and some others here: a great kid, just raised in a ****ty environment.

Eh, I'll post some random thoughts of a few things.

1. I really, really need to use my laptop for something other than browsing the internet and writing.

2. Should expand social circles but outside of people here, my options are very limited at the moment. Education was great at keeping that at bay.

3. Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid and That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime would be in my 10 anime if it wasn't for forcefully throwing **** with one character each.

4. Having friends is a pain when you're the only one doing most of the work. Still annoyed one of them won't use voice chat for same reasons as me.

5. Tagging osby since it's his hometown. As a geography and history nerd I feel stupid that I know now that Istanbul was called Constantinople until like a century ago. I blame Assassin's Creed for this. Ubisoft lied to me.

Time to head back to Persona 5 Royal.

 

[Deleted member]

Yoooo! I just noticed osby 's new pfp.

That looks really dope bro.

 

[Pokelego999]

Let's Go was cute and all but it was as barebones as Pokemon gets. It was just Red/Blue again but with motion controls no somehow even less content then the previous Kanto remakes.

At least SwSh had raid battles and online matchmaking, as well as some cool new pokemon designs. I wouldn't say Lets Go was better in "every way".

You bring up some fair points, so I guess that is true.

Not sure what Ubisoft did but actually both İstanbul and Konstantiniyye were used as the name of the city between 1453-1923.

Btw, where are you now on Royal? How is your progress?

Thanks! Glad you liked it.

I've been watching a video by the youtuber who makes those Wha Happun videos (Chris McMuscles I think was his name) about the Perfect Dark remaster on Xbox 360.

Man, It seems to be a really fun time, and for a N64 remaster It easily looks like an early PS2 game.

That could be the first Game I play on the Xbox Series X when I get Gamepass, ngl.

As someone who played the game via Rare Replay,
it’s very fast paced and fun. Though some of the multiplayer challenges can be quite challenging. Also has online play.

Skip Perfect Dark Zero however, that game is no fun and too sluggish.

Made some more smash icons. without googling the names attached to the files. Just from the icons, what "character" would this be and from what game. I see these as a bowser Jr type situation (even though some creative liberties would have to be made for the source)

I think it's a bit over the top, honestly.

Wario and Waluigi still appear in plenty of things as playable characters and are used in plenty of marketing material. I don't think Nintendo is shunning them or pretending they don't exist, personally.

That is also really true.

I see a lot of Waluigi Twitter accounts argue that Nintendo considers both of them neglected by Nintendo over Waluigi not being in Mario Kart 7 or a lack of presence in the Super Nintendo World datamines for the app.

But It is important to consider that Mario Kart 7 was rushed and a lot of characters Retro Studios and Nintendo wanted to add couldn't be included due to It (and one of them was Waluigi) and that phone applications constantly get updated with more stuff on the files. It is quite plausible that Wario and Waluigi will both get featured in Super Nintendo World stuff with time.

and I still miss Fire Mario in Smash...nobody gets to win anymore

wait...Waluigi can have a year to himself? Waluigi video game confirmed?

I totally didn’t realize DK wasn’t apart of it until you pointed it out, tho I also suppose Pauline is to be considered a late bloomer of some sort

and your pfp is making me think about them Rosalina/Pauline pairings from the Halloween video

I think it's a bit over the top, honestly.

Waluigi maybe, but that’s just them purposely ****ting on him for the lulz, but not Wario. They still have some love for him (probably not the wholesome type)

If Year of Luigi was a big financial loss to them, Year of Waluigi could bankrupt the company.

If anything I see something like the Year Of Donkey Kong more likely as this year It is the main anniversary of the original Donkey Kong arcade.

But even I am really doubtful about It and expect Nintendo to do other stuff to celebrate It.

 

[Dutch Raikuna]

Btw, where are you now on Royal? How is your progress?

Also gonna tag Lamperouge on where I am on Royal. Bit of spoilers to those who haven't played it.

Spoiler: Here lies Spoilers

At big man Shido's palace, right before the cleaner and Akechi fight so taking a few in-game days to improve confidants. Although if you realistically bet Shido became Prime Minister and did act like that, you can bet a country like the US would sanction him faster than you can say Japanese Constitution.

Hoping I can get all the way to the end of the following dungeon as well and complete the game over the next few days.

In other news, I'm seriously thinking of getting 51 Worldwide Games. It's only about £25 ($30) on Amazon and it has Chess, Slot Cars, Bowling and Toy Boxing which looks fun.

Edit: yup, It was anxiety.

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

But even I am really doubtful about It and expect Nintendo to do other stuff to celebrate It.

If the Year Of Luigi failed, and it was based off of the Mario franchise, arguably Nintendo’s most popular IP, I kinda doubt that they’d make a year for any game other game given that their cash cow’s year didn’t do all too well. Not saying it wouldn’t be neat though.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

I will give Nintendo credit for deciding to give Daisy some more focus as a main character. She earned it

If Year of Luigi was a big financial loss to them, Year of Waluigi could bankrupt the company.

they got too much money to go bankrupt...tho the Switch would have to die due to being wasted on his useless WAHs. Too bad Luigi couldn’t get people to buy a Wii U nor get Viridi to give him respect

well it is a Zelda anniversary this year and the Mario hype train continues on (40 years of the Mario franchise overall), so DK alone would at best get a tad bit of love

Yeah, that does make a lot of sense.

Which is why I do doubt that the year of Donkey Kong will happen either.

I do think they will release one game related with It doh.

 

[Dutch Raikuna]

Ok, hopefully this is just my anxiety kicking in and not something serious.

But did I just kill this thread for almost 20 minutes over saying that Nintendo pulling a year of Donkey Kong is more likely than a year of Waluigi?

Please tell me people weren't that dissapointed at that post.

All in your head dude. All in your head.

And by the way, you are correct on that statement. A year of DK is more likely than a year of Waluigi. I even think a year Baby Bros is more likely.

Also we need Baby Bros in Smash.

hmmmmmmmmm. Actually, do we have any sauce on any of these other cut Mario Kart 7 characters besides Waluigi? I'm assuming most of them would have been Wii veterans

Yeah, probably Wii veterans.

I suppose one of them would have been King Boo seeing how Mario Kart 7 had stuff like Wiggler.
