I recently found out about the Zelda: Link to the Past randomizer community. Essentially there is a method to modify the original game to randomize the item locations and other aspects of the game while ensuring the game can be completed. Each game has a seed so you can look it up if you get to stuck. I played through it once and it was a really interesting challenge since I didn’t get the bow until 60% of the way through the game.
On my 8th birthday my dad took a couple friends and I out to dinner and we stopped to buy a video game. My friends and I were arguing about what to get and my dad came by a couple times to get us to hurry up. Finally he said we had to make a decision and ushered us up to the cashier.
As soon as the cashier started to talk a truck off the highway that was above the store crashed through the side wall of the shop with enough speed to hit through every aisle and collapse all the shelving to the back as well as ripping down the ceiling. The guy was covered in blood and slumped over the wheel. No one was hurt in the store luckily, but we all would have been killed if we argued any longer in that aisle. My dad just got us into the car and we drove home. Afterward my dad would just downplay it whenever I would bring it up.
I have never seen Discovery and SNW is very enjoyable. I am sure I am missing context, but I don’t think it is significant enough to make Discovery mandatory.
If you are every in Pittsburgh, Wholey’s is located there and has a fish market downtown which really great. The food there is solid and unpretentious. Highly recommend.
hear ye
Yeah, it’d be a real issue.
They need to upgrade their dead drop locations then. 🤣
Looking for things on the ground or the side of the road. Some notable items I have found:
I take the time to find the original owner whenever I find something but it’s pretty rare. These are only the things that I have kept because the original owner couldn’t be found.
I got access to a really nice VR system through work and binged through Half Life Alyx. I was in a room that was large enough to walk around in, but for larger moves you use the controller to teleport a short distance. Also you can gravity attract items within a few yards with your gloves.
After playing the first time I went to cook dinner and got embarrassingly frustrated when I tried to summon a spoon with a hand gesture.
Agreed, music and art direction are very good.
I played Like a Dragon with no background and it was a great experience. Really wacky in a satisfying way. Only grievance is there is ~10 hours of cut scenes to beat the game.
When I was in secondary school I had to fill out a form over the summer to be allowed to leave early for some school activities. The form required a coach or teacher’s signature. Since it was the summer, I had no contact with any faculty so I had my parents call the coach who told me to sign the form for him, which I did and I turned it in. Unfortunately, that coach left before the beginning of the year so when school started I was called to the principal’s office and accused of forging his signature. I told the principal the coach told me to, so it wasn’t a forgery, I was signing on his behalf, and I even put that on the form. He ended up calling the coach and he even confirmed but at that point he didn’t want to back down and still denied the request.
After I left the two older ladies that ran the office found me and told me they just approved it after he left for the day and he would never know. They were super nice and told me they were proud of me for sticking up for myself. As a barely out of primary school kid it was really intimidating to be yelled at by an adult but I felt so vindicated when they recognized the inequity of the situation and helped me.
That principal ended up only lasting a year too.
Highly recommend Cassette Beasts. It’s a monster battler but you can freely swap and collect moves and the level of your monsters are based on your character level and not the level you obtained it. Plus all the moves have affixes like in Diablo that significantly change their use or potency.
The sum of all that means you are always trying out new monsters and move sets, some of which are entirely broken. Great game.
Depending on the complexity of the part either Fusion 360, Tinkercad, or even just 3d Builder. I usually can find something close already existing and just modify that.
Hell yeah.
I never experienced homelessness but I was lonely growing up. I remember meeting a new kid at school and and we played Earthbound until 3am on his SNES and fell asleep feeling like I was floating because I found a friend and a cool game.
That said It was also the day I saw Starship Troopers in theaters and saw boobs for the first time so that may have been contributory. All in all though banner day.
Just listened to it and god she is amazing. Great recommendation!
