  1. @Kamii definitely loves spoiling me Same question~
  2. What are the odds? I put a video in the MCM thread about the Yulelads and this comes out on the same day. Well, have fun, I definitely recommend giving this a watch because of the added details about Grýla, Yule Cat and Leppalúði~

     

  3. While we wait on the mods giving us an update on the MCM, have some crazy Yule Lads as an insight into Icelandic holiday traditions and stories (classic Jonas, I know)~
  4. No, not really Are you the kind of couple that have a hard time deciding what you want to do/what place you want to eat at? Who is usually the decision maker?
  5. Watched "Klaus" with @Kamii, was a really nice movie, I definitely recommend~

  6. I would not say I am specifically cute, even though I have some nice features. But since I have dimples, @Kamii has pointed out to me that they make me pretty cute when I smile~
  7. I see some legit salt this morning. Congrats to UK~

      Similar effect is happening here, as in, the "right" getting more popular (almost 25%). Hopefully our current leadership doesn't screw up anything too badly, though it has started well as prime minister had to be changed already due some shenanigans :P it hasn't been even an year. 

  8. My review of the game: Alright, so I have now played the game on Nintendo Switch and I can really give it a more of a better review now that I have real experience with it. I have not finished the entirety of the game, but I think I have concrete enough of a view of the game. I must be honest, while the story seems fun, the characters likable, there are a lot of elements that I don't like and it seems rather lackluster. I also would not recommend this game to PC users like I said earlier. I don't know if they changed it to make it more playable for PC players, but I doubt they changed the 2 player mode, it would probably still require two players to be on a single computer. To begin, there is not a lot of help from the game how to use certain moves. Sure you will get the typical tutorial on how to use certain moves or when it unlock certain ability when you level up. But the abilities can often conflict with one another. Do not go to the shop and buy things unless you know what you are buying. I would recommend looking at some kind of an online manual or online description of what each item does. Yes, in the game it is a secret. You do not know what you are buying or what it really does. In one of the first shops, I was buying healing stuff. The first 3 items had all different prices, each one higher.... but they all did the exact same thing. All healed for 10 HP.... and they all cost different even though they do the same thing but count as different items... that... is incredibly bad. There is no way for you to even know this because you HAVE to buy the items to unlock the description of these items. The only items I recommend you buy are the equipable items like clothes. They are more permament and give you certain buffs. But the same problem can be found there, no description, so you might be buying trash items. So look up somewhere online what the items does. I know, it takes you out of the moment, but dealing with the annoyance of not knowing what you are getting takes you equally out of the moment and only makes you a bit angrier when you realize what you bought was trash. The only thing that is not exactly a secret is the stuff in the Dojo. But even thing, there is little description for what the stuff there does that you buy. The dojo sells moves or abilities if you will. Usually they are abilities that requires stamina/AP/seperate green bar below the healthbar to use which you regenerate by punching enemies. I like that. The Dojo also shows you a clip of your character using the moves so that is nice to see, but there is no description. It would be nice to see how to use those moves. Like, "click these buttons" or "mash these buttons together to use your move" which you will not find. What does this really mean? It means the game is pretty much throwing you blind into it which I guess could be fun for some who really want a challenge, but it is not something I am looking for. There will also sometimes be missions that are less appealing to someone like me who was only looking for a fight game to beat up people in. I have encountered at least one stealth mission in the game (I have only gotten through like 3-4 levels of the game) which required many tries to get right. Again, not really what I was looking for in the game but hopefully it was really the only stealth mission in the game. Fighting in the game is pretty nice. Only problem is how abilities can sometimes conflict with one another. I would also like it if it was possible for the player to recover from stuns, like when an enemy launches you into the air stunned, it would be nice to have a backflip like you have in Shantae Half-Genie Hero. It can also be frustrating trying to save your fellow player once they die. It is possible to revive them, but you have to stomp on them. Basically stand over their body and use a Heavy Attack and keep stomping until their ghost returns to their body. It can be frustrating when there are like 5-10 enemies all around trying to beat you to a pulp. Conclusion: I really want to like this game. I actually don't dislike this game as of yet because it is still a likable game with likable characters and a fun beat-em-up elements and action. But is the game worth the money it costs? No, it is not. I would say if you want to try out this game, wait for a sale~
  9. So, it is time for my final music of the day. It is the final one as I decided to start the whole music thing to make it last until the day I actually move away from my country to Portugal to live with @Kamii. I have a journey ahead of me and a new page, new chapter is being revealed in my book. So without further a does, I say goodbye to everyone I have known here in Iceland and wish them the best and hopefully I will meet them again in the future~

      Safe travels to you! Hope that your new journeys in Portugal get off to a good start. :D

  10. Not exactly changed but now I will also laugh at some random thought I do get in my head~
  11. Probably me. Technically, @Kamii should be more lightweight, but I manage to get drunk more fast and she has ended having to help balance me, snrk. Same question~
  12. At least the bot has a good taste in shows. Big Lez for an avatar is a great choice, definitely recommend the Big Lez Show~

      You know, if they just made a thread like normal, they might have been able to actually get their thoughts out there.

      They definitely might have. Probably would have worked better as á blog~

  13. Nearly forgot to post this before going to sleep. 

    A pretty nice Christmas-y song. Let's stop the cavalry~

     

  14. I've gone ahead and added a separate poll for Helluva Boss as well as adding clarification for the edit. People can now vote on Helluva Boss characters as well~
  15. Feeling great! And drunk... just had my last shift yesterday and went out for drinks with my colleagues as they said their goodbyes to me~
  16. After taking two whole days just to listen to Romanticised music:

    The 19th century was the pinnacle and zenith of the West and Western culture~

  17. I started when I was around 5 or 6. I would only go on cartoonnetwork.com and play games associated with them~
  18. I have had both the non-alcaholic version of Somersby and the alcoholic version. Funnily enough, I don't like alcohol or beer in general, but if I have a drink, I usually drink something sweet like cider. My current favorite is Smirnoff Ice, but I also frequently drink Somersby (most often) and then I have had other kinds that I don't remember, from Portugal~
  19. Some music by an Icelandic band for you~

      Cause tho the truth may bury this, ship will carry out, body safe to shore

  20. I really like hot, freshly baked Pretzels. Yum!
  21. There is all kinds of snow here in Iceland. Slushy, frozen, soft, hard, you name it. It can either snow very little or it can snow a lot. Usually, you won't notice too much of it since we have modernized to a point where most, if not all our highways have hot water pipes below them that melt the snow so that cars are able to drive. I remember one time when I was young I thought I was trapped in my own house because the snow had risen high enough that I was not strong enough to open the door. We are no strangers to snow here in Iceland~
  22. Spain is a very interesting country. Spain is basically a country made of countries. You have all these different regions that have their own nationalities and their own cultures to an extent. There are the Catalans that most are familiar with, but there are also the Aragonese, the Andalusians, the Galicians (a hamster that some people are familiar with), the Basque and more. All of them have interesting histories that I am semi-familiar with. Right now I am very interested in the old Kingdom of Navarre that was situated at the border between France and Spain where the Basque are primarily located. Overall, I think Spain is a pretty nice country~
  23. My woes will be heard to all. At least I won't be alone, I am dragging @Kamii with me to the front row... of a pie I just hope her family won't think it is some kind of a crazy Icelandic Viking Christmas tradition~
