The Blackangel

I had no intentions, or even thoughts about it. I had thought it would be neat to visit, and see the sights. But never thought about moving there. It's too big for me. I come from a town with less than 300 people. Anyway, what's up with DC?

I’m a Chevy girl and a metal head as well. But I’m still a fantasy nut. Maybe a strange mix, but it is what it is.

Hoping to find a decent car or truck within my price range. Doesn't seem to be happening though.

I've hated Apple since the Apple2 computer I had to use in 7th grade typing class. But I do use an iPhone. I'll never own a Mac Book, or any Mac machine other than an iPhone or iPad. I prefer a PC. I like computers over Macs. I know someone is going to comment that Macs are computers, but technically they're not. They do the same thing, but it's like comparing a truck to a motorcycle. They do the same thing, but they're not the same thing.

Maybe this is just me, but it's seeming that fantasy/medieval games are blowing up. Like they're the most popular genre on the market. With the exception of COD type games and GTA. I have no problem with this, as this has always been my favorite genre. But I'm still surprised that these kinds of games are seemingly ruling the market. If I've missed something, or am way the hell off, then please tell me. But does it seem this way to anyone else? Or do I just have tunnel vision since this is my favorite genre? Even though my eyes are open to other games that are in no way fantasy/medieval type games

I don't fully get what's going on, personally. It looks interesting as hell however. Is it like voting on what happens next in a movie? I understand that it's gaming, but I don't get the whole thing. I can be really slow to get things at times. And this is apparently one of those times. But like I said, it does look really interesting.

I don't use Twitter, and won't use social media at all unless YouTube counts. So I'm out on this one.

That game looks interesting.

Discussing this topic is fine. If we offer our opinion based on the facts. You can be for it or against it. But we need to approach the topic with maturity, because a lot of people will get heated about it, as they feel extremely passionate about it. Say what you want, say how you feel. Give reasoning in your eyes for your stance. But don't daemonize others for having a differing stance. Me personally, I don't like it. To me it's just another method of stealing games. And I've become a fan of a LOT of indie games. And indie developers don't have the power that Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo have. They can go under from one game, if they're small enough. And some are that small, even though they make amazing games. I've become a fan of the publisher nakana.io here recently. To my knowledge, they're one of the smaller publishers in the industry. But they make some amazing games. As I respect them for that, I would never steal from them. Whether you like a game or not, you have to choose whether or not you respect the publisher on your decision to steal keys.

Donkey Kong or Frogger on Atari 2600. I honestly don't remember which. But I do know it was one of them. Atari was such a beast back in the day. I remember everyone wanted one, and the stores were SOLD OUT. Sold out in advance that is. Atari was bigger than Furbys and Tickle Me Elmo combined. Until the NES came out in the western market anyway. I never did get that easter/western thing anyway. The "east" as it's called is west of us, and us being the "west" is east of them. If it's all measured by going east then wouldn't EVERYTHING be east, and vice versa? Or is it measured at a specific starting point, like somewhere in Europe? I just don't get it.

Sounds like burnout to me. That happens a lot for me. There have been times that the idea of playing my all time favorites just turned my stomach. And all because I had played them too much. Hell I'm currently burned out on a few of them right now. FF8 being one of them.

I'm good to go. I play games on my phone, and I'm content with that. I wouldn't mind having a bigger screen, but have no immediate plans to acquire another iPad. I know they've fixed a lot of the bugs since the first one, so it may be worth looking in to. But the first one was such a piece of shit.

I love what I'm seeing, but I have one question. Can it be played in third person? I'm horrible at first person. Because of that I tend to avoid first person gaming. I'm not trying to say I don't want to learn. I've played Hexen practically since it hit the shelves, and have no intention of quitting it any time soon. But I absolutely suck at the game. My only skill and true talent in the game is getting my ass kicked every 5 minutes because I can't see what the hell is going on around me.

Brotherly love.... ain't it great?

Due to a traumatic experience in the military I can't play those kind of games. I can't even watch movies related to military. Someone once went to say "thank you for your service" and I told them not to. That if I had the choice to do it all over a gain, I wouldn't. That it wasn't worth it.

I tried using discord once before, but all it did was screw shit up on my computer. It took almost a year to get all of it deleted to get my comp back up to running properly.

I played soccer when I was a kid, but haven't since then. It was ok, but not really my thing. I enjoyed playing basketball more.

I play Word Cookies on my phone all the time. Maybe too much. But I enjoy the hell out of it.

I’ve heard nothing good about it, so I stay away. I either wait for my game to go on sale, or buy the key for full price.

Blaster Master on NES. All I can say is play it. It’s one of the all time greatest games ever made. It’s a bit like Star Wars meets The Lord Of The Rings. Sci-fi and fantasy mixed a bit. It’s a bit hard to explain. I would find a good YouTube video to link but I’m on my phone at the moment, and it’s a serious pain to do on here.

Tetris is number one for me. The only game I enjoy that even comes close is Dr. Mario. Other dishonorable mentions are GTA, anything military (due to personal experience), DKC, Zelda: Goddess Of Wisdom (ROM-hack). The Zelda game is not just hard, it’s unfairly hard. A challenge is great, but the ones that made it took shit too damn far. I honestly don’t think they ever intended anyone to get any further than the 3rd dungeon. And the only attacks that will land are so specific, that it’s a pure stroke of once-in-a-lifetime luck if you find it.

Anodyne on Switch

My all time favorite is Blaster Master on NES. If I could change one thing, I would make the Plutonium Boss a little easier. That bastard is so damn hard to beat, you almost have to go through the game under a Game Genie so you have infinite lives to even have half a chance. Out of every game I’ve ever played, and all the final bosses I’ve fought, he is the hardest. I’ve beaten it, but not very many times.

I had been under the impression that Halo died with the 360. Personally I wish it had, as I have hated the game since the original Xbox. It's also one of the reasons I have always hated the system.
