Sméagol replied to Hero-of-Time's topic in Nintendo Gaming
And another late-night heads-up for people who want to visit Redd? @BowserBasher @Tales @anyone real twinkling painting fake academic painting fake serene painting fake graceful painting Furniture: red / grey vacuum cleaner light pink / white Mr.Flamingo Probably not going to stay up late. Gate's open right now. Maybe for an hour, I think I'll be AFK, and go watch something on Netflix. If No one has taken the twinkling painting by then, I'll just take another. Edit: I'm off to bed in a minute. Got the twinkling painting for anyone who wants it. -
In a similar vein to that Rick & Morty video:

Sprocket's birthday today. Let me know if you want to visit. -
Hopefully in the next few days.Not going to make it tonight probably, but I'm looking forward to it. For those not familiar with it, it's a horror comedy.

I'll skip this one then. Haven't seen Redd in a while, so I'll have to wait until next week I guess.Will post here when I see him again. -

Ask him to get some other stuff next time! What are the fakes? I only have Sahara over here, although she did get me something new. -
In the end I didn't go for that deal initially. However, they're now seeling some left over stock for their black friday sales. Apparently they have some "cosmetic damages". I finally got Shakedown Hawaii (didn't want them both, and this one seemed more fun), and I'll see for myself how bad these cosmetic damages are. Games are 15 dollars, but they don't offer standard shipping for these, and it's a rediculous 19 dollars. This includes pre-paid vat and customs..However I don't have to pay vat and customs for something that's priced 15 dollars, so that stings. But, while not going to be the lastt wii game for me, it's s safe bet this will be the most recently released one, and I'm looking forward to adding it to the collection. And even playing it some day, when I get my CRT TV fixed.

Usually it's the other way around (?) Anyway, it was fun. Just like the Halloween holiday, nothing too tedious. Seems like they're learning somewhat from past events.. Apart from the plethora of autumn stuff to find and to build. I was thinking it would be a lot of inventory management, but it was fine. The villagers mostly asked for common stuff, or sometimes even stuff you already caught for a previous request. Dungeon crab took the most time, I had to circle a few times around my island for that one. But ther rest was easy. Think they upped the spawnrate too, and the chance rate for the stuff you need as well. Also found 3 pearls while diving for other stuff. Anyway, I didn't want to give him my mushrooms (i'm way behind collecting mushrooms, I only started collecting them a few days ago..), so I took longer than I could have.. I traded a bunch of times, and caught some ofd the stuff I needed (and tried to look out for balloons in the meantime, another thing I'm behind on, and I only have a few days left..). One of the recipes you get is excellent for displaying small museum statues or fish /bug models by the way.

Just checked if Celeste happens to be on my island.. And she is! Gate's open in a minute, but I'm not staying open for long. Half hour max (so roughly 01:30 CET / 00:30 UK) She's currently around the plaza. Edit: it seems it's a new zodiac month. Edit: Closed the gate as I want balloons to spawn while I wait. Post here if you want to make a quick visit, I'll check back later. -
What's actually in it? Tomato.. onions, mushrooms?

The Exercise & Fitness Thread: The Struggle Is Real
Sméagol replied to Fierce_LiNk's topic in General Chit Chat
Hmm, you people tried the first one? I kept up with it for a month, but didn't really feel it was doing much for me. I wonder how both compare. -
Well, that's a disappointment. I'm unlikely to buy the digital version if I get a refund.

Super Mario Maker 2 challenge - June challenge has started!
Sméagol replied to Sméagol's topic in Nintendo Gaming
To be honest, I'd only just started (surprise!), but while I have some ideas, I don't feel like cramming out a level today. Maybe I'm a bit burned out myself. I'll give it another week personally, but I suspect there will be no other entries anyway. -
Yeah the chess cowboy. I liked him for his acting, but yeah, I agree he doesn't look the part. I was thinking myself he needed to buff up. That was all what was needed.

This is also how I solve all my problems.

They will, and rightfully so.

Didn't see any form, but maybe I'll need to log in first.

Wouldn't mind grabbing that fake landscape painting later. Hope your fake stone was worth not picking up the real painting though! -
Sorry! It's a bonus though, not the actual ending.

Redd has some good stuff today. I took the proper painting ( I love that one, I actually want a spare for the house). What's left is: Real perfect painting Fake Mona Lisa Fake wild painting right half I also have another Villager birthday coming up, Mallary this time, on November 17th. I'm starting Hades in a few minutes, but can open later tonight. -
Wish I could replay this right now as well! I've forgotten most about it (no surprise there). I do remember having more fun with this than I expected. I bought the game mostly for the adventure bits, exploring the apocalyptic city and looking for people to help. Wasn't particularly interested in the rail shooting bits, or the driving. So I was surprised I had fun with those as well for the most part, and that it all worked together better than expected. For the driving part I actually had an extremely uncharacteristic ritual of switching to the Wii steering wheel. I hated that thing and never used it for Mario Kart, but for some strange reason, I did try it out for this game, and it felt better to me, despite the hassle it was. I forgot this was from Monolith. Would still like a sequel, from the ending haha. (and I also still want a Baten kaitos sequel and port of origins)

Super Mario Maker 2 challenge - June challenge has started!
Sméagol replied to Sméagol's topic in Nintendo Gaming
Sorry.. Got too distratced by Hades. Theme is P-Switch. Deadline is ehh, next week Tuesday I guess. No other restrictions / requirements. (I was originally thinking of having the theme be to create a remix of SMB 3 1-1, as a reaction to all the SMB 1 1-1 remixes you see. I felt it was prehaps to restrictive, though on the other hand it also provides a early guideline. Still curious to know what you would have thought of this hypothetical theme) -
I'm loving this game, and I've been playing it a lot since I bought it. I've now managed to complete a run a bunch of times. Some builds: First victory was with the shield. Which was surprising as it was the 2nd time I used it, after failing to win with the spear a whole bunch of times before that. Got the daedalus hammer right from the start (my preferred start), and got a boon that makes my special twice as strong after dashing. The shield special is pretty fun when it gets powered up. I was constantly dashing away and spamming my shield. Later I got a ice upgrade for it, and there is a boon that does continuous damage when all enemies are chilled. Since the special is pretty fast and bounces around, this is easy to accomplish. I love pairing up my shield with ice boons, but coincidentally my last victory was also with the chaos shield, however I used lightning boons this time, which was also pretty fun. Then after I unlocked the fists, I really got into those, and I've been most succesful with those. Funny considering I wasn't looking forward to trying them out. They attack very fast, so they're great with a lot of boons and debuffs, like doom, or lightning. I always combine it with the lambent plume keepsake, that increases your dodge when you clear a room fast, and I take everything that mitigates damages or increases dodge. You're pretty much unkillable while getting in your enemies face. It looks like this: Got my fastest run with the fists so far, at 25 minutes, and also my heat record, at 5 so far. Funny enough, while the spear was my favourite weapon from the earlier unlocks, I never managed to beat the game with it until a while after my first victory. it's still my most used weapon. I came close with some "explosive spear" (little bit of aoe) build. Even funnier is that I barely even used the actual spear towards the end, as I was relying on my ice beam casts, which surprisingly did a good amount of damage, and they require no attention. It wasn't even a proper ice beam build, something I'd like to try some time as well. First victory with the sword took the most effort, I can't recall exactly, but I don't think that build did anything in particular. Second victory I completely relied on the dash strike, and it just looked like my other melee playstyles, but with even more dashing involved. Wasn't looking forward to the bow as well, until I took a look at the Aspect of Chiron (was the name I think), and I'm really liking that one. Your special will automatically target the enemy you last hit with your main attack. Works great with poison. The hidden aspect seems interesting, I'll try that next time. Finally one of my recent victories was with the gun. Also took me a few tries, and I absolutely hate it.The reloading, the aiming, the slow rate of fire, short range and low damage in its default state.. The need to aim the grenade. I can't stand it. I had beaten the game with 4 heat with those fists, and I couldn't even beat the first area with the gun when I tried it first. Didn't even make it to the boss. I've now finally scored a win with it, which I did by turning it to my melee playstyle after getting the shotgun upgrade. So similar to that but slower and less effective. Anyway, I love the writing, and I'm surprised there's so much of it in a game like this. Even after playing this much, I still haven't seen a repeated dialogue I think, unless it is from the Olympian gods. Theseus always cracks me up, he's my favourite. There's still new stuff to see, and to unlock. I've got 4 or 5 hidden aspects for the weapons, and 2 companions so far. I also love the little details. Like seeing the reaction of the shades when you enter the administration chamber and try to "inspire" them, and I also always say hello to my fan in the 3rd boss arena.
