This was a thought i had after looking at list of all the new characters who ended up in Heroes in 2023 and how Thracia got nothing. I found it pretty funny myself but you know, Thracia at least has content. IntSys still remembers Thracia. You know what they don't remember? The original FE Warriors.

I thought this was going to be about Thracia not getting anything last year and I was going to say "well it's been almost seven years, IS knows what's profitable at this point" but it turns out I don't have to say that. They should add Linoan though.

Anyway, it's probably because the Warriors original characters aren't very popular or unique. TMS only got content as cross promotion with the Switch port and has been ignored since then.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom's final boss in a nutshell

Spoiler

One could say that I was not entirely prepared to fight Ganondorf.

Spoiler

Images that are very hype

Spoiler

Images that are very satisfying

Game was good, it almost brought a tear (of the kingdom) to my eye... I never got the Hylian Shield but I assume it's found somewhere in the final area.

Spoiler

I would've cleared Master Kohga's quest beforehand, except I didn't know how to get to his final location beneath Rito Village. Apparently you're supposed to fight him before finding out where Ganondorf is, but I still checked under Hyrule Castle first because where else would he be be?

Anyway, happy early 2024 (or late depending on your timezone).

I dreamed that you could dress as CD-i Link in Tears of the Kingdom, I was very disappointed when I woke up.

From my brief experience playing Super Mario Bros. Wonder in multiplayer, I found that Yoshi makes for a good "babysitter" character (fittingly enough) when playing with less experienced players, since he can catch power-ups for them and offer a ride through troublesome platforming sections. And also, it gives you an excuse to play as Yoshi.

Haa, only now I'm getting Poppi QTπ.

I'm curious, did you do much side content before you finished the game? I was too invested in the plot to pay much attention to side quests in my first playthrough, so I missed Poppi QTπ's existence initially. Her quest is actually first available in Chapter 8, provided you viewed a specific Heart-to-Heart in Leftheria.

Hint:

You mean I have to be bad at giving Christmas presents to progress the plot?

I didn't realize how much I strayed from the intended progression until I looked up what I was supposed to do.

Spoiler

So you're actually supposed to go to Kakariko Village and do a whole quest there to find out where to go, hence why Purah tells you to check ancient ruins. But my mind went "Ancient ruins? Obviously I should check the sky or the depths" and I ended up finding Mineru's location on my own. Then you're supposed to go on another quest to find the Deku Tree and learn where the Master Sword is, but of course I already found it and met the Deku Tree before I cleared my second dungeon. I also thought Mineru might be secretly evil for a time, so I apologize to her for that. Trails must've corrupted my mind.

In hindsight, it was probably because I spent so much time goofing around and doing the Dragon's Tears quest early on.

Apparently the Deku Tree helps you find the Master Sword, but I already got it before I cured him. It seems you can get it as soon as you want, stamina permitting, as long as you can get to where it is.

I didn't give any of my rare Blades Core Chips on my first playthrough because I didn't like removing their unique weapon. I also remember Chuggaaconroy being too lazy to check the Affinity Menu at some point, so he went the whole second half of the game without unlocking anything on the affinity charts.

I bought a Trails calendar, more specifically this one, so I could stylishly keep track of 2024's dates. Note that while aesthetically pleasing, it has spoilers up to Reverie for the uninitiated. I didn't actually know it shipped until I got it.

I assume I am close to Tears of the Kingdom's endgame since I finished the four temples and

Spoiler

am on the quest to find the Fifth Sage. I thought I was very clever for checking the Great Sky Island first and finding a pillar of light there, but it was actually a Side Adventure that seemingly isn't part of the plot. I was annoyed enough that I checked the big storm cloud over Faron next, even though I didn't think it was available yet... and despite being mostly unable to see anything, that actually is where you're supposed to go. I also found Mecha-Mineru's body in the Construct Factory before the plot takes you there, but I didn't know what it was for at the time.

Also, the Lurelin Village restoration quest requires you to get logs. It sounds like I have to build Mechagodzilla to transport a bunch of logs there (or I could use a horse instead, but that isn't as fun) rather than just giving 15 wood pickups.

Warning! Shenmue III I read was a total flop!😛

To put it precisely, decades had passed since Shenmue II, what was once memorably innovative in gaming, had become utterly antiquated. Also, the reason aging fans had been so eager for a sequel, was to finish the damn story -yet it seems Shen' III failed to do that. A Shen' IV is rather unlikely now.

The fancy new title, I'm guessing, is in recognition of the 20th anniversary and to generate interest. Even if it isn't the finale, it will likely be a major upheaval of some sort for the series' plot.

...A different source told me recently that Xenoblade 2 has like 10 hours of tutorials.

Now you say the tutorials are awful and teach only the barest minimum.

I don't know where you heard that, but technically speaking "there are 10 hours of tutorials" and "the tutorials are bad" aren't mutually exclusive. Mostly the issue is that you can't review the tutorials, and they don't really walk you through the gameplay mechanics to show you how to do them properly.

Though for Xenoblade 3 many people took a while to figure out that you can select which characters to use in a chain attack, so maybe the tutorials aren't entirely the issue.

[Serenes Forest's Teehee Thread]

Seeing Godzilla Minus One renewed my interest in seeing every Godzilla film, so I watched Ebirah, Horror of the Deep (I meant to watch all of them before seeing Minus One but obviously I never got around to it). It was fun and Ebirah was cool, though getting the main characters on the island was pretty contrived. First this guy's brother was lost at sea, so he goes to a dancing competition to get a yacht. Then two guys there say "hey, we'll take you to a yacht" and then they all go to one for some reason. Then a guy in the yacht points a gun at them and says "eh, you can stay the night" and then the guys exploit his hospitality by taking the yacht out to sea while he's asleep. The guy in the yacht didn't actually own it, which is aside the point. It's also pretty apparent that Godzilla's role was written with King Kong in mind, which is an amusing anecdote.

More importantly it features Godzilla's greatest foe, the Giant Condor. The scene where it came out of nowhere, fought Godzilla for a minute, died and was never mentioned again is truly the greatest in cinematic history.

Good point. Not like Eggman hadn't made his lackeys fight to the death before. Gamma being tested against one of siblings in Adventure before he goes AWOL comes to mind.

I didn't play much Sonic in general, but the Egg Dealer seems so... underwhelming for a final boss. I know Sonic as a franchise looves casinos (Why did this become a thing? Because Sonic rolls into a ball?), but this wasn't the place for a slot machine boss. Eggman has done more menacing things before ...though he is in the same game as the aforementioned Black Doom (and Devil Doom), and Diablon, maybe it would've been foolish to compete.

I've heard people say that the straight Neutral path is deliberately underwhelming to encourage players to pursue the other paths (which require more effort to access and thus I barely got to them when I was younger), so that might have something to do with it.

The issue is both endings involve fighting Eggman. -But there's only three final boss options. Diablon would be weird there with the Black Arms presumably fiercely fighting elsewhere, and there aren't any Black Arms assaulting Eggman's base, so Black Doom wouldn't make any sense either.

That's true, but one of the fights could be Eggman testing Shadow to see if he'd be a worthy minion or something to that effect, since the Dark mission already has Shadow helping him.

Leaked portion of the Zelda movie's script:

Navi: They fly now!

Zelda: They fly now?

Link: They fly now!

I can't wait to build Mechagodzilla to fight Ganon.

Though I'm not sure how useful Zonai Mechagodzilla would be in fighting enemies, since it seems to only walk in a straight line.

Oh we have something kinda like chicha here in Spain. We call it arroz con leche (rice with milk, very creative) and it's... basically the same, only it's more solid and consumed with a spoon.

It's delicious, too. My mother makes some killer arroz con leche sometimes. Really wouldn't complain about having it in drink form haha.

English speakers call it rice pudding, and many countries have their own variations. I still need to visit that Venezuelan restaurant, actually...

This line of conversation is making me hungry. I had fettuccine bolognese the other day while we're talking about food.

Wait, there's only one save slot?

Always has been. Technically you can get more if you have multiple Switch profiles.

Due to me bumbling around in Tears of the Kingdom and not wanting to go through the Fire Temple right now, I ended up finishing the Dragon's Tears quest before completing my second dungeon.

Spoiler

I like how Ganondorf's cunning plan for killing Sonia was having someone else try to kill her (Not-Zelda, henceforth referred to as "Princess Zorldo") and then sneaking behind her while she's feeling accomplished for outsmarting an assassination attempt. When will regal figures voiced by Cherami Leigh catch a break? I wonder how many stealth potions Ganondorf took... and I'm glad I now know the context behind Ganondorf's meme face. I'm also pretty sure I knew the Light Dragon was Zelda beforehand, but I got the memory that implied it pretty early so it isn't too big of a deal.

As an unintended byproduct of seeing every memory, I also got the Master Sword (hype). Exchanging a heart for stamina when I found the Horned Statue turned out to have been a good idea. I tried to be clever and previously looked for where Zelda might hide it beforehand (hence why I visited Korok Forest so early), but none of my guesses were right. The first thing I did after getting the Master Sword was freeing the Deku Tree, and it put in good work against Phantom Ganon (who I certainly wasn't expecting to see).

Now to continue doing everything except progressing the main plot.

At least my shift is short that day.
