It is funny that we never got another 3D DK game since DK64.

Like the game was so bad that they never tried again.

It was so broken they had to give out free hardware to make it playable. How do you come back from that?

It did give us the DK rap though, so it wasn’t a total waste.

Easy. You know Super Mario 3D World? Just do Donkey Kong 3D Country.

I though the game had more of a positive to mixed reception at worst.

Well, if nothing else, the game's got some pretty cool bosses.

From what I can tell, as someone who didn’t even exist in the 90s, it was received well enough upon release. But over the years it’s garnered a negative reputation for being less of a Donkey Kong Country game, and more of a Banjo Kazooie game on crack.

A lot of people still like it though, obviously.

Looks like she did not get what she wanted for Christmas and has to wait another year.

Better luck next time, Mariah.

 

[TheMightyP]

Oh yeah, Fire Emblem.

Realized I missed not one, but two sidequests in Eliwoods story. One is lost forever but I won't lose sleep since the merchant is recruited regardless, but the other...

Well I have a seperate save so I can attempt it again, but chapter 16 took a lot of tries.

Also, Hector...

Watched Violent Night twice this year. Still my new favorite Christmas movie. Came up with a headcanon.

Unless the upcoming sequel debunks this. It was Odin who bestowed Nicomund the Red with immortality as he eventually became Santa Claus to atone for his sins. In other words, the Norse Gods exist in the world of Violent Night or at least used to until Ragnarok occurred.

Mariah Carey gone for another year (inb4 she makes a successful song based on the other 3 seasons)

I've played a bit of a Fallout game at the heavy request of my manager (I picked Fallout 4)

I'm not feeling it, Mr. Krabs

Yeah, personally I wouldn't have started with 4 tbh, I would have started with New Vegas.


But it also depends on if you like the gameplay system or not.

The shiny I wanted: Oshawott or Piplup. Preferably both.

The shiny I got:

Yippeeee

I just picked something that I didn't have to pay for or wasn't a dumpster fire at launch as another free option (76).

I don't know anything about New Vegas but the exploring and combat that I tried in 4 wasn't exciting almost at all.

Yeah that's another thing.


Personally, I find New Vegas to have a very engaging story, but to each their own.

Well you won't like NV's combat then, because even NV fanatics think 4's combat is an upgrade.

Yeah. I think, personally speaking, NV has the strongest narrative and atmosphere in general, but the actual gunplay def feels a bit antiquated.
