I bought the MK8 Booster Pack from my Russian eShop account. It was 2075 rubles. I'm a bit interested to see if that transaction actually goes through and how much I actually end up paying. The price in rubles is locked but the currency conversion is not. Or if my bank will even allow it at this time. It hasn't been a problem previously. (I had some gold points on the extra account that "lives" in Russia that I wanted to use).

Another new trailer for Fantastic Beasts 3: I'll definitely watch it but I'm a bit skeptical. I don't really understand why we need those Fantastic Beasts-characters in the movie...
-
Looks great but damn, I had not expected them to release in 2022! This autumn is just going to be packed. Really liking the world I'm seeing.
-
But that Johto Tour was announced at least last month so have they just put something more under that banner or?
-
I haven't been able to find the Pokémon Go announcement anywhere (checked Twitter, news outlets and Reddit). Anyone seen it?

Pokémon Presents: 27th February 2022 @ 14:00 GMT
MindFreak replied to Julius's topic in Nintendo Gaming
I assume this will be made available on the official Pokémon YouTube channel? -
On Tuesday, Ikea delivers a new kitchen to me. Ten days later, my father and father-in-law will tear down the old kitchen, rip off the wooden floors (that we lay down just before moving in) to remove some tiles that made the wooden floor unstable. Then the new kitchen will be implemented. I'm looking forward to that as I've never done anything like that before. I'm a mathematician, I don't use tools! But I wanted to save money and since I'm on paternity leave, I have the time to actually do it. I'm just happy that my fathers are there to help me. Other than that, I don't need to do much but there is still lots of knowledge about keeping a house healthy that I need to obtain.

Just curious - what kind of books do you prefer to read? I read fantasy - surprise? - and I love getting lost in a new world with new stuff to discover.

I also tend to get burned out from open world games because I want to do everything and thus get distracted from actually completing the game. In The Witcher III, I simply didn't progress the main story because of all the side quests, treasure icons and whatnot that were available to me but that mains that after what, 30 hours I hadn't really played what made the game so great and I just didn't want to continue playing it anymore. What @Glen-i did in the beginning, getting complete PokéDex for all the Pokémon he caught surely will lead to a burnout because it's simply not that fun in the long run (IMO). However, running around, discovering the world and new Poklémon is a lot more fun and thus, that was what I focused on. I would have wanted more riddles, secrets and deeper lore (those ruins!!) but I did end up enjoying the game a lot - even more than I would have expected in the beginning of January.

And there it is. Arceus is obtained. It took me 55 hours and 49 minutes, a good 15 hours more than completing the first part of the main story. The final fight against it was brutal and took me half an hour, I would assume, restarting the battle again and again. But all is well now. I found the hunt for the four legendary, roaming Pokémon in the end to be the most frustrating part of the end game of this game. The final one made me black out several times, losing important stuff from my satchel! Has anyone ever got anything back from people finding it or is it just an artificial gimmick with no real people behind it? Still, quite the game, quite the journey. It is by far the most fun I've had with a Pokémon game since Black and White. I enjoyed X & Y and Sun & Moon to som extent but this was far more pure fun. I hope they let the freedom slip into the main games now. I cannot go back to locked routes, cut-off areas and random, unseen encounters in tall grass. I want a lively world with Pokémon running about, I want to feel bad for catching a Blissey that's just minding it's own business trying to touch its feet. I want to chose whether to fight a Pokémon or just catch it without interruptions in the main games, they have over time felt too slow and old-school to me. The battle system is alright. Just keep the non-generic backgrounds. I found the Agile / Strong versions of the moves interesting but in the end, I felt they just were a bit unfair, the agile version was just not weak enough so and agile and a normal attack would make my Pokémon faint. It was an interesting concept, though, and I like that they at least tried. And I want a better story than just wanting to become the best Pokémon trainer in the world. I'm fine with the Gym structure but it shouldn't be the main driver of the story. Also, side missions need to return to the main games. Simple as that. But I don't want Pokémon Legends 2. I don't think the concept would hold if we just got another 50 hours long game with new areas and new Pokémon. It should be tightened a bit, smaller, interconnected areas, a deeper story with focus on lore and characters / Pokémon.

Oops, typo.... Cheers. I figured it was very low key as no major outlet reported about it.
-
What was the announcement for Pokémon Master sEX?
-
But at least. I got Cleffa and Bonsly!
-
Got Munchlax! But then I found out I also need Cleffa and Bonsly... god damnit. Other than that, I need the other two starters and the post-game Pokémon.
-
Limbo is more of a game with actual puzzles and challenges, I enjoyed that. Inside was more of an interactive show where you more or less just push right. It didn't really click with me.
-
Found the final wisps today. Needed two in the final area and I had to use a guide for the final one. It was hidden in plain sight but blended in with the background when seen from above. Then I need to finish the post game content to get some more new Pokémon, and finally I have to find a Munchlax. The rest I need aren't hard to get, I think.
-
It means that they just felt it was time for a new banner, and this is the project they are working on.
-
Ah, no. It's entirely my fault. Sort of. At least not the game's fault. I had just followed a quest, it ended, and I didn't know where to go. But I had just got my second son at that time (January last year) and things were getting busy so I didn't have the energy to pick it up at the time. And then time passed. Didn't play much for a good month or two after that.
-
Just got a Cherubi (two actually!) and evolved it to Cherrim. I don't expect one to actually get both forms, right? Also got all wisps in the first three areas. The two worst are left, though. My method of just flying around at night on Braviary has worked well for me. I'm at 221 Pokémon now but I'm playing this a lot less now.
-
I stopped playing this at some point after the 20 hours mark because I didn't really know where to go and didn't have energy to just wander about discovering stuff. I've always wanted to return to it, though, as I did enjoy it rather much.
-
It looks incredibly entertaining and interesting. Will definitely want to watch that in the cinemas. Damn.
-
Well, at least with Daredevil, you can watch the third season without much else. It starts where Defenders ends, though, so might want to read up on that. But for Defenders, there really is no need to watch Iron Fist or Luke Cage at all. I didn't and understood it perfectly without. It's not that good, though.
-
I can really recommend Daredevil season 3. Just watched that in January and I really enjoyed it. But I haven't watched anything else but Defenders and Jessica Jones. And I don't intend to.
-
After the story ends, a few new Pokémon are added to the rifts. I'm unsure if this is the main story or the post content story, though. The same for me. However, I find that finding those Wisps is "easy" enough by just gliding around in the dark on Braviary, looking around. Found all Wisps in Crimson Mireland that way recently. But then again, some are hidden in caves which is a bad move.
-
Well, this was a pleasant surprise. Will probably pick this up to play with my son, he should be able to play it well enough.
