Last week I started playing Hades! Love the story and character designs <3

The thought of seeing and hearing him in-game soon gets me through the days. 💚

I really truly still can't get over the Legends Z-A announcement. Everything about it. ULTIMATE Crazy ass moments in Pokemon history. We had Unova game vs. Johto game rumors and theories flying around for half a goddamn YEAR. People were pointing out paintings of Lugia and Ho-oh in Detective Pikachu 2, Kitakami's dex full of Johto 'mons, Indigo Disk's 32847872 Unova references, the Paradox Legendary Johto AND Unova Trios. The OFFICIAL POKEMON TWITTER was posting cryptic gifs of Reshiram and Zekrom in the weeks leading up to Pokemon Day. The day before the stream people were waving around 4chan "leaks" of Legends Celebi, ILCA BW remakes, Black & White 3. None of us went into that direct knowing what we were gonna get.

And then it was Pokemon Day and the Pokemon Presents premieres and it's start to finish full of Johto nods, Unowns bouncing around and Raikou in Pkmn Sleep and Silver in Masters. They slap THIS FUCKER up there seconds before the final teaser trailer of the stream.

And then we get that teaser.

And then we get hit with "Lumiose City"

And then It's not Johto. It's not Unova. It's the region we haven't seen in an actual literal decade.

And then a single letter changes everything.

AND THEN THE HITS JUST KEEP COMING ONE AFTER ANOTHER. Legends "Z-A." The A looks like the Ultimate Weapon. Releasing 2025. Not this year. For once in so, so long a Pokemon mainline game isn't coming this year. It's like exhaling a breath I didn't know I was holding. The screen goes black and every expectation we could have possible have has been flung out a Kalos-shaped window.

And then they give us one last little treat for the road

Just an absolutely unbelievable presentation. They played us like complete fiddles. They're sending our asses to FRANCE. And I can't help but smile so big just thinkin about it!! This is the first Pokemon announcement I've seen in YEARS where the majority of folks have been not just surprised but this joyful, EXHILARATED surprised, just absolutely going nuts over 10 years of memes and jokes and game wishes that are finally getting their due. And it's just infectious. There's something really magical in the comradery and shared excitement and I'm never gonna forget it. I love Pokemon. Welcome back and welcome home, Zygarde.

Though I, can't stay with you. Oh I, won't stray away from the truth. I, remember your warmth. And I'm, still learning to love anew.

Mario and Luigi nation (just you you're the only mario fan I follow) how are we feeling about the mario rpg renaissance

Having a completely normal reaction what you mean

I feel profoundly bad for every rpg yet to come out this year that now has to compete with Metaphor: reFantazio.

AGHHHH. the use of ‘embracing one’s duty’ again. SOOOOO good. this is n’s theme, to me- it’s him as a hero. in the first game maybe he was the misguided antagonist you had to stop but even so he fully believed he was doing something good. and this theme reflects that. now it’s used again and it’s fully him, having come into his own… there’s no better song they could’ve possibly picked for his triumphant return. plus it only played in one tiny area last time so now they’re doing it justice!!!!

In a world of Chaos. A Nameless Hero rises.

Dynasty Warriors Origins trailer dropped and here I am already doing fanart

I’m going bonkers.

Lü Bu been going from edgy shonen villain to Paladin of Conquest/Oathbreaker Paladin vibes in 9 and onwards and I absolutely love it.

And Cao Cao has been waxed. I repeat, Cao Cao has been waxed.

I’m seriously considering putting on a tinfoil hat and share my speculations.

I’ve given myself the goal to 100% Wo Long and see if I can try out the other Dynasty Warriors titles until Origins comes out. The funny thing is I was often thinking “Omg a Dynasty Warriors X Wo Long esque game would literally make me explode!”… So um… *explodes*

"And to follow up on Niko Mikkola...his sense of humour with him, like, maybe—lot of people don't talk—like, last night he was like, you know, he "woke Bobby up," or whatever. "Good thing Bob was awake—"

"He's a great personality and I've said this kinda during the year. And we've, you know, I mean we're always—...I was gonna say, "It'd be great if you guys could spend a lot of time with him," but then we spend a lot of time trying to make sure you guys don't spend too much time with our guys, so, there goes—so, forget that! But, he is an incredibly interesting guy. What's great is when he's coming to the bench... if there's something that's broken down, and I'm not sure if he's screaming in Finnish or it's in English, but it is funny as hell! And it's consistent. So, he plays really high-energy level. A lot of times these kinda big, lanky guys are... you don't really think they're moving that fast, but they are! He looks like he's getting across the ice, and, you know, he competes hard. That's what we like the most of him, but he talks at a high-energy level, too, on the bench. And that's great, right? We have some quiet players on our bench, and that's fine, that's who they are. But, those guys like Mikkola, who's got—nobody knows—Well there's four other Finnish guys knowing what he's saying, but nobody else knows what he's saying.

paul loves all his rascals and it is a joy to hear his takes on them its mikksys turn now!

Tears of the Kingdom has claimed my free time and attention for almost the past 4 days and counting... It's incredible :')

Like BotW was already a special experience for me and this feels like I'm reliving it all over again 💚💙

The Long Good Friday (1980)

"Alan found him dying. He'd been nailed to the floor."

"When was this, then?"

"Well, it must've been just after you saw him and just before Alan saw him. Otherwise, you'd have noticed, wouldn't you? I mean, a geezer nailed to the floor. A man of your education would definitely have spotted that, wouldn't he?"

[darkdragon768]

I'm going to grab my copy of eow today (pre-ordered it and I don't want to receive a stupid "you haven't picked it up today" call) but... I think I'll have to force myself to play it (zero motivation) to get spared by the spoilers.
