Discordian

Playing video games is the secret to happiness in my life. If I'm playing I am content no matter what difficulties I might be having.

I keep holding out on Breath of the wild until I get a Switch but that's a long way out and I have a Wii-U I could just as easily play it on so considering getting that version. I guess I'll hold myself off by playing Ocarina of Time on 3DS and satisfy the Zelda vibe for now. At least I know I like that one. I tried playing Majora's Mask and didn't enjoy a second of it. I ended up quitting before getting to the second dungeon. Worst Zelda game of all time imo.

Hey you can't have the same story as me. People might think we're talking about each other or something. Spoiler alert: we totally are.

Only one. There was talk a few years ago of a meetup in my area but I don't remember what happened to it. Either I didn't go or it never happened. It's a bit hard for me to get around though since I don't drive. I'd be taking trains and buses wherever unless it was in my town. Not a fun prospect. I should also mention that the one person I know from here I actually knew beforehand so maybe it doesn't count.

I mean seriously though, the way her oversized bow bounces is the most adorable thing in the world.

Sleep. I work overnight so by the time I actually get to sleep it's often 8-9 in the morning.

Because Discord's episodes at the beginning of season 2 were what brought me into the brony fandom. He was my favorite character for a long time until Starlight Glimmer came around. I thought he deserved a more dignified look as well so there was only one choice for an avatar.

Ketchup on the never. Especially on fries. If I was to dip fries in anything it'd be ranch but usually opt for nothing. You could say I don't like ketchup.

As with alcohol, tobacco, and other such consumption pastimes it means nothing to me as long as you don't try to force me to do it out of some social obligation bullshit. I have had people try to make me sound like less of a human being for not taking part and I will not have any of that nonsense. I will say that I greatly dislike the smell of it though and boy does it carry. My neighbors use it and I have to smell it on a regular basis, not to mention while I'm at work where people like to use our bathrooms for it.

Once again I got bored of FFXII Revanent Wings right before the end. Dunno what it is but it all of a sudden stops being interesting in the last few missions. Switched to Scurge: Hive which I've also yet to beat but mostly because the final boss battle is ridiculous. Whether I beat it or not though I'm finally getting to Luigi's Mansion 2 afterward. I've been wanting it for years but was waiting for it to not be $40 still.

There were a lot of great fights in this game but definitely gotta go with Gehrman. Crotchety old man no more. My favorite ending is

Dear god this fight was inteeeeense. The entire final level was but this fight alone took me like two hours to beat. I'm really glad it checkpoints between phases because holy shit no. Amazing fight though for sure.

A lot of games don't really show the true potential of their gameplay unless you do at least some of the optional stuff. Other times if you just run through the story and do nothing else you can mislead people into trying a game they aren't prepared for. That isn't to say that it's necessarily fun to 100% every game but can you truly say you know a game without at least attempting it? I will 100% games that I like a lot mainly, or ones where it won't take any major effort to do. Many I give up on part way through. I also don't really consider things like filling out every single item slot in an inventory as a necessary step. On Playstation alone I have 28-ish Platinum Trophies including games like Darksiders, Ni No Kuni, and Alice: Madness Returns. Then are also some non-trophy games I've 100%'d like Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow as well as Star Ocean 1 and 2. There are some games where I've gotten very close but eventually gave up on for one reason or another. Metroid Prime 2 left me with one missile expansion I could never find that stopped me from completing it. Then there's games like Silent Hill where the last thing I needed was those laser guns but beating hard mode with the top rank is ridiculous. I should also mention that I see little issue with using guides to help get a completion. Particularly if there's a lot of things you can miss that would ruin a 100% playthrough. As someone who doesn't really like to play a game more than once I try to loom through walkthroughs at least a little to know if I need to keep an eye out for something. At the end of the day you still have to make the effort yourself and keeps the game fun.

I need to finish When They Cry myself. I got about ten episodes in or so. I didn't stop for any particular reason. It was so long ago I'll have to start over though.

It was far too long ago and I was much too young to remember which one exactly but I had a few NES games it was likely to be. One of these: Super Mario Bros Castlevania Skate or Die Karnov Duck Hunt.

Most of my toys were thrown out each time we moved. Kept some, built on it, then got rid of them again. Eventually all of my toys were thrown out. There's only two I've had since, literally, the day I was born. I suppose I should maybe try to get them cleaned or fixed up or something someday. That's two stuffed animals I'll never get rid of.

@cuteycindyhoney Dear mother of god I've been looking for Popotan for over a decade. I've seen the characters and animations in random places but not once would anyone ever say what it was. Literally the first Youtube video I ever put on my faves list had a bunch of animations from the sisters in it but no one knew who they were or didn't say if they did. Thank you for being the light at the end of that particular tunnel. Now to find the bajillion other anime I've seen over the years. <__< >__> @Stitches There probably was at some point but it doesn't hurt to revisit the topic for people who've seen more anime since the last one, not to mention new members. --- As for me, I'm a bit particular about what openings I like. Unique sounds and great animations tend to go a long way. A lot of the "typical" anime music really doesn't interest me in the slightest a lot of the time. A list from me could still go on and on though so I'll keep it to three per post and wait for others to put theirs in. Without further ado:

I order things enough from Amazon that it more than justifies the cost, personally. I buy enough in a couple months to save double the subscription fee in shipping rates. I don't even care about the two day shipping so much, though it is nice. I couldn't go without it.

All of my clothes. Gone. I will not be hot and uncomfortable in my own home. Then a bit of bathroom time and a video game while I'm in there before I go to sleep. I can't sleep when I feel like I have to use the bathroom.

There used to be a station here called Funky Monkey that would play actually current metal rather than just stuff from twenty or thirty years ago like a lot of rock stations. It was my go-to station until it was shut down some years ago. One of my favorite things about it was that they would announce the song and band name after literally every song so I never had to guess. Since then I've mostly become aquainted with Pandora which is the closest thing to radio I'll tolerate these days. I have a bunch of stations on there but the ones I main are my many metal stations (for specific genres such as power, melodic death, and thrash), a rock station that originally started as an alt rock station but is kind of a mix of alt and standard at this point, a pop music station I made specifically for songs that make you want to dance, and a comedy station that has a lot of stand-up and some music like Weird Al and Ninja Sex Party.
