Thanks @Glen-i and @Hero-of-Time One more question: If I visit someone's island can I find, for example, iron nuggets in a rock even though it has been smacked by the host already? Or are resources set for the island itself and not the player? I need 15 more iron nuggets for the shop so...

I can now visit others. Can I just go and pick up all the goodies? How does it work?

Paging @Hero-of-Time

Alrighty, 100k bells are mine Time to wait for Blathers to arrive. No idea who that is but I hope my stuff isn't blocking the entrance to his museum I have to say. The isolation has taken its toll on me. Aside from my flatmates and the cashiers at the grocery store I haven't seen anyone in over a week and since I don't really like texting or phone calls I haven't kept in touch with a lot of my friends, sadly. I was feeling quite lonely. Playing Animal Crossing: New Horizons has been a great distraction from everything today. The other games I'm playing help, too, but this one is a different beast. It's pleasant and relaxing, whereas Cuphead, for example, is stressful and rage inducing (in a good way)

Thank you @Hero-of-Time I think that's enough for now...I'm ready to donate a few creatures Didn't know about the fact that you can just place them...guess I'll have to catch some butterflies again tomorrow

How about we use this thread (or rather the first post, @Hero-of-Time ) to also share friend codes (and mention what fruit each of us has on their island)? Would be great to have 'em all in one place.

Police have been breaking up those "parties" on the regular according to news. I read them on Tagesschau (television news service by a puiblic-service television network; check the Wikipedia article for further info). You won't find any sensationalism there. Yeah, I think your assumption is correct. I doubt it's something like chickenpox parties.

"Corona parties" That's the phrase making the rounds in the news over here. Apparently young people (i.e. between 14 and 30 years old) all over the country are gathering in parks for barbeques and beers and call it "corona parties". I'm at a loss for words. The stupidity on display is worrisome to say the least.

Seems like I'm done for today. Airport is still closed and the museum will be ready tomorrow. Unlocked quite a few things, though I can see now why my mom spent so many hours with New Leaf. Sadly her copy still hasn't arrived and won't until tomorrow How will the online aspect of the game work? Would love a quick rundown so I can give it a go tomorrow and let my mom know how we can travel to each other's islands.

Alright...now that I've picked up all the weeds I feel like a drug dealer By the way, here's my friend code: 3320-4577-2619 To all of you here playing this: Feel free to add me No idea how the online feature works, yet, but I've been in the video game biz for years. I'LL FIGURE IT OUT.

So what is this talk about airport colours and fruit? This will be my first time playing an Animal Crossing game so WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

Still, I don't need it. Oh look, it's downloading. Well...now I can't say no.. I HATE YOU @Hero-of-Time

Decided to not get it for at least one or two months. Too many roguelites I want to play first. Wish all of you an awesome launch I've also made peace with the fact that I won't hear from my mom for a while...

Since I don't see my friends these days I decided to start a new save file for Cuphead and play it solo. Halfway through and it's much easier alone. In co-op you don't deal as much damage and therefore have a harder time killing off enemies that bosses spawn. It feels like the game is not balanced around co-op. Anyway, enjoying my time with it. Still haven't reached the point my mate and I have so no surprises, yet. Don't get me started on that sale...I am very tempted to get FFVIII, DQ2 and DQ3... But there are so many games (*cough* roguelites *cough*) coming out soon...I have to resist

Yeah, none of this will be remembered as soon as Sony finally reveals the console and announces its price. The latter and exclusive games will be the deciding factor. None of those who were disappointed with the showing (which was exactly as advertised...) will give a damn about it as soon as they know how much money they need to invest.

Just found out about this. Out next week. Played the demo and it is amazing. Can all these roguelites maybe not release at the same time?

People already angry because they didn't show the PS5 and the SSD is not 1TB.

Cue the "WHERE IS THE PS5" comments Anyway, that was such an interesting talk. Now I'd like to hear from a game developer how exactly this new tech will be the game changer that it's supposed to be, i.e. what exactly can we expect from games in the future. Oh, and I'll say it again: Cerny's presentation skills are incredible.

For what it's worth, Cerny definitely is a professional presenter. Very interesting so far. Instead of just throwing numbers around he explains what it all means. For a hardware noob like me this is pretty cool to hear/see.

Can't comment on this myself, but here's a note from Dodge Roll: reddit.com

Not mine, that's for sure. If I get the game I'm putting my island on immediate lockdown. No way ya'll be infecting my villagers
