This is why I'm always very careful with whom I allowed into my home after one of my expensive digital camera was stolen and no one who came to my house that day agreed to have seen anything.
I would piss myself if anyone steal my Nintendo Switch.
it was a $500 loss

Well that's good to hear. I'm still worried about joycon drift, but I guess I'll just have to risk it. One of these days I'll get a switch. 🙂
And damn, I'm sorry to hear that happened to you. People suck sometimes. 😞
i try to keep my switches away from air vents and not eat while i'm on them to help keep debris from getting into the joycons. plus i think if you're playing a lot and playing joystick laden games like fighting and/or racing i imagine the wear and tear on them would be faster. mostly the drift happens from dirty joycons and the cheap plastic piece that holds it being crap. you can replace your own joysticks on the joycons of the regular switch. not sure about the lites though.

I agree with you on that I grew up without internet for a portion of my life and only had a land line at MOST , generally we spent time together outside as a family or you just learned to spend time alone being creative to entertain yourself. Now adays if you don't instantly agree with someone its almost 100% going to be an argument and that person would rather just find a group of people that agree with them instead of pushing their mental limits of what they "know". Can say dating these days is actually a really tricky thing since no one wants to admit their wrong anymore or be open to change. Its either they believe 100% what they think they know or they dont trust anyone because they know nothing xD and generally its the ones thinking they know everything that know nothing at all REEEE
Still technology has helped alot and made life much more convenient but it took away all the substance from life at the same time. Most people don't even know the smell of a camp fire, the taste of a real home cooked meal or the sounds of nature. Not on a true deep level that happens on a regular basis ofc. I think a shift will come in the future where more people want to experience natural real life experiences orrrr if that doesnt happen we just fall deeper into the rabbit hole of technology and dont return on humanity is forced to XDDD
and today's kids are only getting this now. they don't know what it was like to just be a part of life. most of them only know what's in their phones.

What if it was a fun playful style game where instead of "dying" they just fainted in a realllyyy cute way, like a spiral, a twist and a collapse in an extremely cute dramatic way as if it was just falling asleep after stuffing its belly so full :D?
i'd be ok if it respawned and wasn't gory in any way.

It's only animal NPCs in games that I'm very comfortable with killing especially when they are the hostile one's.
But for a game like Stray, I'm not sure if there's anything like that when it comes to facing hostile animals NPCs.
if it upset me to shoot at klombo or watch others shoot at him in fortnite i'm pretty sure the first time the kitty gets hurt i'll be done playing. lol!

One of biggest challenge in monitoring them is that those shooter games are also available on mobile phones. You might be able to stop them from playing it home and once they have access to a smartphone, they can download and play those games at your back. Technically, technology is ruining what it shouldn't.
true but bear in mind i come from a different generation. even if we'd had cell phones when i was a kid there's no way we would've ever been allowed to have any. all this technology is changing people and their perceptions of real life events like simple conversation. they can't have a conversation without either getting offended because they no longer understand the concept of voice inflection or they're too busy on their phones to have a conversation. but there's no balance really to fix it. it is what it is.

Most of the game reviewers are in for the spotlight to get views, if they don't say amazing things that will attract audiences, they wouldn't record much views from their video reviews of any game.
you're talking about game reviewers. i'm talking about streamers who play these games every day in the hope of getting pd. to sit there and play video games all day so they don't have to work outside the home. they're well past the review stage. some can chill and play and have a good time and a great stream. others are big babies when the struggle gets to be too much. every time they chant i hate this game they are bringing down any reviews or possible sales with all that grumping if you wanna get technical about it. many times they start losing supporters/followers because of it.

Honestly now adays you would have to completely monitor your child / restrict them from anything connected to the internet, television , phones etc if you wanted to keep them away from violence, guns, murder, drama, sex, or really anything a child should probably avoid. Me and all my friends grew up playing band of brothers style games, 007 and countless other games that involved killing each other. The issue is the combination of the current society and these games/ other related things which breed a risk factor.
I remember my youngest brother had a name "A 5 year old" on games so whenever he would kill you online it would say "you've been killed by a 5 year old", or "you've killed a 5 year old" and it was the most comical thing ever. Especially on world of warcraft XD
LOL! i'm usually shouting you just got killed by an old lady!

Because nothing moves smoothly from starting to the end. You must undergo trials in gaming, and you'll incur defeats and those defeats you share creates suspense amongst gamers. I wouldn't like to listen to reviews were the game is 💯 excellent without flaws at some point in the review, it will make me feel though the gamer is just trying to promote the developers.
yes but, constant complaining about glitches and how broken the game is gets old day after day. they sit and complain they hate the game. it's one thing to say hey this is glitchy today. i get that. no game is perfect and most of us know that. there's a difference between the occasional comment and constant whining.

my only issue is the 5 yr olds that are playing shooters. i don't think they should be exposed to that at such a young age. it shouldn't be considered normal for them. jmo

This is actually why I'm very selective when it comes to the streaming channels I make use of. I hate it when I put my time into something and it ends up being a big joke. Only if they are paying for us to watch their contents, most of them would be very serious whenever they play.
that and the bigger they get the less engaged they become with their followers. especially the ones that have been with them from the beginning.

Haha, that's the reason why some people don't like playing their pet animals in video games because whatever hurt the pet animal experience in the game affects them psychologically and emotionally. But I'm very sure that the Cat didn't die in that act.
it's still hard to watch stuff like that. i don't like having to kill the animals in video games. too soft hearted i guess. lol

it will be free next year. i just don't wanna wait that long to play it.
as for being mediocre...i don't know what kind of games y'all consider spectacular but i'm good with it. *big grin*

Beavis was such a nuisance and was prone to making irrational decisions throughout the game.
If there is a physical copy available right now I would go in search of it this is one of those such games I want to add to my collection.
idk if there is any. none of my laptops will take any discs

Yeah, that's a possibility that it's something that's going to come to Switch in the future. It's just like game's that are exclusive, with time, they would be made available to other platforms. I would love to have it on Switch too.
i looked at some more gameplay. idk. i might like it but the cat almost fell off a plank. if it fell and died it would make me cry for sure. lol
-
yeah. too bad. i get why they like the video games but they should go have a life first.

I struggled with playing Minecraft at one point until I started playing the creative mode. It was when I fell in love with the so much. I do still play the survival mode once in a while but the creative mode was awesome.
i'm on peaceful mode in the creative part too. once i kinda understand things better i might go play in survival mode. i've been watching streamers play it. i'm looking at tutorial videos. this game might fair better if it were a touch more user friendly instead of user mysterious.

i don't like anything too spooky or gory so i can't really contribute much. most games i won't play.

Kirby and the Forgotten Lands is fun and the graphics are pretty. I have Fall Guys so I don't need another version of it. LOL!
