Re: Officially Forgotten?

I know that I check the forums every so often. But the truth is that there's not enough activity to make it worth doing regularly. And when I do there's nothing I really want to add. I tried the Discord and disliked it for a number of reasons. Many of them being the same as why I stopped using the T...

Re: The General Magic: The Gathering Thread

Copter was ultra-efficient and ubiquitous, which made it a much more likely hit for a banning. Reflector Mage is more surprising. But others have talked about how it'd help push U/W to be the dominant archetype with Copter and Emrakul gone. So it does make sense. The timing is the weird part for me....

Re: The General Magic: The Gathering Thread

So for the first time since I've been playing, we've got actual standard bans. Standard attendance must have been abysmal for this to happen.

Re: Gaming General Chat Thread

Assuming you mean me with Skyward Sword, I ran into slashing in a specific direction with the Deku Babas. And I actually ended up returning the game. :| The motion controls slowly tilted me out more and more. I was about to return it halfway through the first dungeon. I decided to give it one more s...

I had also meant to say that that was the last day to get all seven. My bad, I apologize. And I had also forgotten to post about it earlier. Mostly because I kept on remembering it while away from the computer, then forgetting by the time I got home.

Re: The General Chat thread

I'm curious if anyone can add their opinions to this. I'm considering picking up the Collected Works of Hayao Miyazaki from Amazon. But it's price tag is throwing me off. $200 is a lot for 11 movies. Especially when I could get them all (most including bluray+DVD) for under $170. Does anyone have an...

Ubisoft is giving away 7 good games. If you don't mind using their PC platform and have account through them (or make one, I assume), you can grab them for free here. Highlights include Beyond Good and Evil, Rayman Origins, and Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon

Re: Gaming General Chat Thread

I'm finally playing through Skyward Sword, and... I can see why people dislike the motion controls. I don't mind the idea of them. But man do they feel forced in this game. And the execution feels clunky so far. Like trying to fly or fall just feels like a chore, and slashing the 'correct' way seems...

Re: Welcome to the Hodor Squad

I didn't mind the handholding as much as the constant cutscenes. Being taught how to catch a Pokémon doesn't bother me too much, since it's normally a one and done thing that takes a minute or two. And the map having waypoints is kind of nice. Though I'd prefer it didn't mark every single event and ...

Re: Welcome to the Hodor Squad

Yeah. I'll admit, between the Battle Tree being as tough and slow as it is and how easy it is to get cheesed out in the Battle Royal, there's not any good way to get BP. Which sucks, cause I kind of need to get the evolution items and would like to get the breeding items. By the time I wait for the ...

Re: Welcome to the Hodor Squad

So, three things. The first is, is anyone playing on a non-English game? If so, I'd like to try getting a good IV Ditto from chaining if possible. I'd be willing to try getting one in return, and it sounds like chaining ditto isn't very difficult once you get the right setup. Secondly, I now have Te...

Re: Welcome to the Hodor Squad

Yup, I'd learned that pretty early on when I was trying to get an SOS specific Pokémon. It's a nice way to stall when you need to. When I was chaining, I actually didn't use False Swipe. I had my Mimi use Thief to bring them pretty low. But it gave a buffer in case they started to use Struggle. As a...

Re: Welcome to the Hodor Squad

So I decided to try chaining SOS battles last night to try getting a shiny Riolu. I found the stats kind of interesting. I battled about 284 Pokémon. Of those, Chansey showed up around 20 times I'd guess (didn't keep tight track). Lucario showed up exactly three times. There were no shinies to be fo...

I also have a Ditto, and access to all 3 starters. I'm in the process of fighting the E4 as we speak, and will probably focus on completing my regional dex after this, so I am more than willing to breed Pokemon for people. I'll fite u for breeding rights. But for serious, it's good to have multiple...

And I'm finding the game a bit tougher in general. Especially with wild Pokémon being able to summon b...

So if anyone wants the frosty little fox, just let me know on here. I'm also willing to try getting any of the Sun-exclusives for ...

The announcement has already affected Wii-U sales. Nintendo adjusted their sales projections down in the last few days because of it. I've no doubt. But I feel like it'd be even lower if they continued to bring the system up in the coming months. And if they did a full information dumb now, it coul...

You and I might not like it, but it's better marketing. Remember we live in an age where anything announced six months ago is old news. Nintendo basically have to slowly tease out the information. One of the many mistakes of the XBone launch was that they dumped their load six months before release...

Personally, I think it looks like a sweet idea. It's an interesting mix of portable and home console. I really dislike how little solid information we're getting.
