Challenging difficulty as in "Wow this is tricky" and not "You died? You ****ing idiot, you moron, you absolute buffoon, the game's harder now because you died".

Great music.


Phenomenal writing that has good themes about depression, also ended up helping me a lot as the free DLC stage tackled something I would end up experiencing in a while.

Absolute garbage collectables which you can and should use a guide and Assist Mode to get

Tfw you want to buy pink bed sheets but your mother stops you saying "I don't want another drama with your father" (even though my father likes to pressume about being progresist and all that just so then he stops me from doing or getting literally anything I like in life.)

Am about to start Gravity Rush tonight, after I play a bit of Red Dead Redemption 2 or watch Dr Stone's first few episodes.

I have now realised it is about 4 years since my January 2017 quartet came out (Gravity Rush 2, Kingdom Hearts 2.8, Tales of Berseria and Yakuza 0) and the time I stayed up about 24 hours on purpose.

Woke up, did some coursework, played the first few hours of Gravity Rush 2 from midnight, made a video for college, got a shower and dressed, went to college, engaged in coursework and antics, bought a Chinese, went home and played more Gravity Rush 2. Then fell asleep.

I am really getting old.

Still up Peach's dress.
Just got Captain Toad Treasure Tracker for five bucks ayyy lmao
I just saw that. Walmart's made a massive **** up, and some people are apparently getting the full game for the price of the insanely cheap DLC.


Not everyone got as lucky as Guh-Huzzah here and only got the DLC, but...c'mon...5 bucks? Worth the gamble, right?

This is either one of the biggest game sale **** ups ever or some clever marketing done for 3D World since that game also has Captain Toad levels scattered through out it.

Also on the topic of Walmart.

As someone from the UK, I'll always feel uncomfortable going into a Walmart ever again in the US. All because of a guy in Florida giving me a death stare right by the gun section so thought I was going to die for a minute there then.
It was probably because I'm Irish and I spoke too fast for the guy to understand why he gave me one.

And also guys in the US, why (probably in the pre Covid world) have people filling your bags at the checkout section? Just saying as someone from the UK.

Yes, you really should play Captain Toad, really good game. Plus gotta adore that main theme.

There are noooo Walmarts at all in Germany

Probably because theyrte relativly "FAKE" which is a no go in Germany
Do you mean “fake” as in scummy or fake... like literally? I’m not exactly following.

Not in that way Germans just dont like American stores that much

Look at Aldi (i think there are Aldis in America right) Every Normal Shop in Germany is like Aldi (because aldi is a german shop)

This means:

No Music (atleast not in normal stores)

No "fake friendly" people

no plastic bags for free

Pfand (ok you probably dont know what that is just google it)

1 Euro (more or less) for Shopping Cart Renting

Not open 24/7

"Gun section in the supermarket" still sounds like something you'd read on a bad distopian sci-fi book.

A really good story
RAAAAAAGE
A nice and really inclusive Difficulty system (from Cheat to a little bit easier)
The best (for a boy relatable) Female Protagonist in gaming ever (you can Name Madeline and it works even if you give her a male name like Link works with a Female one)

One of the best platformers out there, a perfect blend of themes, gameplay, music, story, level design all wrapped neatly to present a powerful and simple message.

Has had a profound impact on myself to envision what my current issues are and comparing it to climbing the summit and my willingness to reach it. It really, really will impact you on that front.

Also mountain goers or hill climbers, if you don't have Reach For The Summit on your playlist for that, do yourself a favour and put it on now.

In summary, yes an amazing game and personally one of my all time favourites.

Yep, that's why I don't get it. I'd expect stuff like that to be sold in an outdoors shop but not a Walmart. It's like someone would be like "I'll go pop up to the shop to get some bread, pizza, facewash and a new bolt rifle as well." along with the weekly shop. And this is someone who has seen it before.

Reality can sometimes be stranger than fiction
Having seen it there that is true.
