    Enjoying the new Pokemon games any?
    O
    oarfish
    Yeah, I'm enjoying Scarlet a lot. I've been playing it a lot the past few weeks.
    I've beaten the main story, and I'm doing several activities such as working on my Pokedex, training competitive Pokemon, doing tera raids, and others.
    How about you?
    Auraninja
    Auraninja
    Sorry for the ultra-late response, but I manage to beat the game just a couple days ago and I thorough enjoyed it.

    There were some performance issues here and there, but I haven't seen some weird glitch or anything like that.

    Otherwise, it was fun to explore, and Bellibolt is the MVP of my team.
    O
    oarfish
    I'm glad you enjoyed it! I think it's a pretty good game.
    I haven't really encountered any significant performance issues myself. My game has crashed a few times, but not that many overall.
    I haven't tried using a Bellibolt yet. Do you recommend it?
    Auraninja
    Hello. Have you ever considered putting an oarfish as your avatar?
    O
    oarfish
    I've thought about it. I'm not really sure why I haven't thought about it more.
    Auraninja
    Hey, it's been a while, how are you?

    O
    oarfish
    Yeah, a few.
    Lately, I've been playing mostly Halo Infinite and Elden Ring for new games.
    For old (or oldish) games, I've been playing Halo Wars 2 and Dragon Age: Inquisition.

    I recently beat Super Mario Galaxy (121 stars as both Mario & Luigi), so I might move on to another game.

    I might try to pick up Persona 5: Scramble from where I left off, since it's a good musuo game.
    I also looked into my Xenoblade 2 file, and I might do a little bit there as well. I accumlated about 270 hours in the game, but I haven't finished it yet.
    O
    oarfish
    Those sound nice!
    I've played a lot of Super Mario Galaxy, including some about a week ago. I haven't played those other games myself.
    Auraninja
    How are you doing?

    I'm playing both Animal Crossing: NH and Pokemon Shining Pearl. The latter game I am very slow at, but I'm in the fourth gym town.
    O
    oarfish
    I've been really busy lately in terms of my non-leisure activities. I've also been playing a lot of Halo Infinite's multiplayer.
    I'm only in Sangem Town in Brilliant Diamond lol.
    Auraninja
    Forgive me if I already asked, but are you getting Brilliant Diamond, Shining Pearl, both or neither?

    I'm getting both, but I'm mostly going with Shining Pearl, with Brilliant Dimaond being mostly for a friend.
    O
    oarfish
    I'm planning on getting Brilliant Diamond. I got Diamond back in the day, and I preferred the exclusive content in it tbh.
    Auraninja
    Auraninja
    Same with me, but flipped to Pearl, though some content in Diamond I would say is better.
    O
    oarfish
    Yeah, it's nice to experience both.
    Auraninja
    In case you didn't know, I had COVID almost all of last week, but since Friday night, I've felt loads better.
    I shouldn't be contagious at this point, and yes, I took the vaccine prior.
    O
    oarfish
    I hope it wasn't too bad for you (the vaccine would have helped that a LOT). I'm glad you're feeling better now.
    Yeah, these breakthrough cases are worrying. The boosters coming should be a great help in general, and especially for such cases.
    Auraninja
    What are some of your favorite video games?

    oarfish
    Other than Titanfall 2, I've obtained the entire Assassin's Creed series (I'm quite late to the party here), Control, Mass Effect, and Dragon Age. I've played some of several of the Assassin's Creed games, and I've really been enjoying them. Control is amazing (give us PvP fighting using these mechanics please!).
    O
    oarfish
    I played through ME Legendary Edition. It was great. I've played some of Dragon Age: Inquisition so far (I'm enjoying it as well).
    I am following some unreleased video games at this time, including Pokemon BDSP, Pokemon Legends, Halo Infinite, and some others like Battlefield 2042.
    THERE.
    Auraninja
    Auraninja
    I definitely like Pikmin. Pikmin 2 has to be a top 10 game for me.
    Auraninja
    I apologize if you read any of my political posts, lol!

    I hate being political, but so many topics I care about become political, so it becomes hard for me to ignore.

    I'm not going to name names here for that of course lmfao.
    Auraninja.
    I named you, therefore you are not an idiot.
    Logic.
    For real, yeah, I'd obviously not call anyone an idiot over DMs lol.
    Auraninja
    Auraninja
    Since I've been here since 2005, there have been certainly times I regretted posting something, political or not.

    I try to become a better person, or at least be less dumb.
    O
    oarfish
    I definitely approve of people actively trying to better themselves, especially when it comes to their intelligence.
    If only more people did that.

    Hello, how are you?

    Just to let you know, early last month was when I received my second shot, so I'm fully vaccinated.

    I'm really looking forward to Nintendo E3.
    O
    oarfish
    It's great you're fully vaccinated!
    I'm doing okay. I don't think I've told you, but I've recently been diagnosed with supraventricular tachycardia. I'm on medication for it now, and I have a minor procedure scheduled to correct it in a few months.
    O
    oarfish
    I've barely been paying attention to E3 lmao. I've been busy with other stuff. I've been quite excited about E3 in the past, but with no E3 last year and how busy I've been this year, I've gotten out of that mindset lmao.
    Auraninja
    Did you get vaccinated for Covid yet?

    I had my first Pfizer vaccine personally.
    O
    oarfish
    Yeah, I received my second dose on March 31. I was able to get fully vaccinated not long before my state lifted its mask mandate. I'm relatively protected myself (not completely of course), but all those people here that aren't yet (or don't want to) are in severe danger still.
    Auraninja
    Auraninja
    I think my state also lifted the mandate (or at least considered it), but I still see mask requirement signs.
    O
    oarfish
    I see places in public with mask requirement signs also. It's so bad when people disregard them and the store's employees don't enforce their requirement.
    Auraninja
    Did you see the Nintendo Direct?

    Anything standing out to you?
    O
    oarfish
    3/10.
    Smash Bros. and Animal Crossing.
    That's all I cared about lmao.
    Auraninja
    Auraninja
    You should buy Splatoon 3.

    Good way to get into the series.
    O
    oarfish
    Perhaps. I've been hearing good things about Splatoon.
    Auraninja
    Did you pick Sword or Shield, or both?

    Which one do you have the expansion pass for?

    O
    oarfish
    Yeah, that sounds fun.
    Let me know when that happens.
    Auraninja
    Auraninja
    Regardless, I might have you in a group of people to do Dynamax Adventures with if the opposing legendary proves to be difficult.

    In these situations, I may give you a message giving you the code for the DA.
    O
    oarfish
    Sounds cool.
    Auraninja
    Hello.

    I've been playing Final Fantasy VII.

    I might actually start a Pokemon Sword file and just take a plunge and buy that version's DLC.

    The reason I'm doing this is because I want a copy of Zacian, Single Strike Urshifu, Regieleki, and Glastier.

    I should mention for context.
    I bought the Sword and Shield double pack and gave my friend Sword. He only really plays it during his visits at my house, so we decided that I could borrow the game.
    The DLC is the only price barrier, but my friend helped allievate the cost a bit (he's very nice).
    O
    oarfish
    Well, that sounds like a great friend.
    I mean, I have no issues with my finances, so I'd be fine paying for it also. I'm not trying to convince you not to pay more. You have made some good points, and you should do what you want.
    Auraninja

    I beat the first gym, and I'm currently breeding Timid Eevee.

    One more to have a viable Jolteon.

    I also did a lot of Isle of Armor activities.
    Auraninja
    Do you buy the Smash Fighter Passes?

    I really enjoy using Piranha Plant. It's so versatile, and it fits my playstyle pretty closely.
    I also really like Byleth. I find the many options he/she have are fun to use.
    I guess I like the versatile fighters especially due to how I can play them differently depending on who my opponents are.
    I like all the DLC fighters quite a lot, as I've said.
    Auraninja
    Auraninja
    Piranha Plant might be my best fighter. Ptooie is such a good move.
    O
    oarfish
    Yeah, it's so great. I use it all the time.
    Auraninja
    X-Box, Red Cherries, Jingle Bells, Magic Cheese

    Sephiroth

    Auraninja
    It wasn't offensive, so don't worry about that.

    Sephiroth is the antagonist of FInal Fantasy VII (the same game Cloud is in). There is an infamous "Luke, I am your father" spoiler associated with Sephiroth.

    The final boss theme is the one I'm referring to. The Latin lyrics start up past the minute mark.
    O
    oarfish
    hmmm...
    I listened to about 2 minutes of that. I don't really care for that flute playing. It reminds me of this infuriatingly irritating Grubhub commercials.
    Also, part of the lyrics sound like "eggs on my knees" lmao.
    Auraninja
    Auraninja
    If you wanted a guitar motif to the song.

    Auraninja
    You know, there's this one microgame in Wario Ware Gold that has you draw Kanji.
    I found it so difficult, so I looked up how you do every Kanji character that the game will throw at you.
    O
    oarfish
    I don't even know what Kanji are lmao.
    Auraninja
    Auraninja
    They are those complicated Japanese characters. Not to be confused with the simpler ones.

    They stand for certain words, like river or moon.
    O
    oarfish
    Oh, those.
    I don't know much about Asian written languages.
    Auraninja
    Finally got Pikmin 3 Deluxe. I might play that soon.

    Random question, but have you ever attempted a Dragon Quest game?

    7 has this very weird go back to the past and get something in the futre mechanic. It is also long.
    8 is just a very competent RPG. It's a favorite among some.
    9 is a DS only experience with customization features out the wazoo.
    10 is an MMORPG not released in the West.
    11 (S) is a very good game with many likable characters.

    I've played parts of 7, 8, and 11 S.
    O
    oarfish
    Those sound cool for the most part.
    Auraninja
    Auraninja
    Fun fact, Dragon Quest Swords also exists with the original Mega Man composer doing the music and James Turner (of Pokemon fame) doing the artwork.
    Auraninja
    Enjoying the Crown Tundra yet?

    I did the Galarian bird and Regi quest.

    I'm picking Spectrier as well. They are both pretty cool, but Spectrier wins because I would rather have Calyrex use special moves.
    Plus, it's a night mare, get it?
    O
    oarfish
    lmao, nice pun.
    I agree about Calyrex and special moves also.
    Auraninja
    Auraninja
    I caught the Calyrex combo with a Gentle Calyrex and a Hasty Spectier, and I was like, close enough.

    Regice was a good Pokemon for this because it can use Zap Cannon for paralysis, plus it has 200 base Sp. Defense, and can use Amnesia.
    Auraninja
    Between Steve, Crown Tundra, and Pikmin 3 Deluxe, October is going to be a good time.

    I thought about choosing Wind Waker HD. It was between that and Pikmin 3 for me.
    Auraninja
    Auraninja
    Wind Waker HD was really good. You can't go wrong with either version, but WWHD looks fantastic.
    I didn't like that they replaced the Tingle Tuner with a nearly pointless Tingle Bottle, but that's my only complaint.
    Auraninja
    Auraninja
    Twilight Princess HD is another good remake that I don't think gets enough credit.
    Some of the changes they did add were pretty meaningful. Namely, they tell you how many Poes you have left in each location.
