What a gem. A defining game for me. I was so in love with this game, and still am. I need to replay it, it's been awhile.
Golden Sun for the Gameboy Advance was released on this day in North America, 25 years ago (2001)

I cannot wait for the nit picking to begin and it will be deserved. Remember the fanboys glazing stupid shit, because they will try to deflect away that it "doesn't matter" when the only reason any of them want to "play" is for this dumb shit that doesn't improve a video game.
You can see this NPCs calf muscles contracting while she’s running, that’s how far Rockstar Games went with the details in GTA 6 This game is going to blow minds

And if you just want to enjoy the game as a normal person, more power to you. It's not about you.

PlayStation only does everything, like enrich those who aren't exclusive to them. :'D

"The baby game was for babies, so it's okay to make it even easier" People are so fucking stupid it's annoying.

Anyhoo, Deadlock is cool. It's crazy that Valve is investing so much into a game they aren't even selling anything for yet. That basically anyone can get into play. Great art direction, smooth gameplay, stellar voice actors and lore...

He worked on a lot of good Marvel movies lol. And he's right. Ultimately they make movies to make money, not to make you own the chuds. To make a universe that becomes an event, like the MCU used to be, you need to appeal to everyone. Not people who never buy tickets.
The new face of DC we are cooked. RIP Peacemaker and anything rated R

20 years ago we asked players to get attached to cute paper-based critters that could inexplicably go for a swim and not dissolve into mulch. Videogames, eh? Happy 20th birthday to the unique gardening antics of Viva Piñata! Why not boot up Rare Replay and check in on your faves?

I'd like to remind everyone that children play Roblox and Minecraft in extreme excess. It's not for lack of patience. It's that most games are terrible and don't appeal to children. These both allow a lot of creativity for endless play and expression of their imagination.
has anyone considered that this is a game for children whose point is to make money, and the children in 2026 are a lot more impatient and have a million other things competing for their attention? it's not 1998 anymore. it's for kids first, and nostalgic manchildren second.

Maybe the problem for why kids may not gravitate toward a lot of modern games is that... they're brainless trash made for the lowest common denominator. :O Maybe if games were more magical and had finer details and required thought kids would be engaged. Hmmm

Who wrote the books I read as a child didn't matter to me at all. Nor who starred in them. I just wanted to read fantasy. I didn't like assigned reading because it was never stuff that interested me. I otherwise loved to read. I'd walk to the library every few days for a new one
“Teach your boys to read books about and by everyone” is really sending the men spiraling today

And the Black Beauty was actually my book not the library's. This excludes stuff like Pokemon, Captain Underpants, and other similar scholastic stuff. Animophs was another I really liked as a kid actually. Isn't that by a woman too? Aliens, transforming into animals...

Just make something interesting and boys will want to read it. The problem is you're so far into "books for 'girls'" (grown leftist women) that you've conditioned boys to not even look at books for something they'd like anymore. It's faster to find a manga you'd enjoy.

Just finished the Fire Temple. There's a lot of little things. Both that are bad and that are good about the remake of Ocarina of Time. One thing I still hate and always hated was the scarecrow song I forgot to confirm the song as adult Link, so have to return places. bleh

Goron Tunic is hideous by the way.

"Nitpicks" are actual criticism. Typically they're just criticisms easy to accept and move on from... until there's a thousand little things eating away at your enjoyment. Not so easy to ignore. It's like having one ant on you. You may not realize. You won't miss a 1000 ants.
this is a great example why the Crowbcat style of “criticism” doesn’t work. these complaints are valid because they do add up and you can make a good argument if you wrote about it. but as it stands, this is just a list of nitpicks instead of actual criticism.

People are mad because his reaction wasn't like so, "This meal was delicious" *chef walks out as race the person doesn't like* "Oh... a [slur] made it? This meal was disgusting actually" He saw the art, liked it. He didn't just unlike it based on it's origin. Based honestly.

Feel how you wish about generative AI, but you can't just pretend that an image you liked is suddenly bad once you find out it was made with AI. That would be silly. bonus analogy: "You're great, I really like you. Want to go out?" "no" "I didn't like you anyway stupid whore"
