Have you watched the show Twin Peaks? I heard that Bright Falls is very similar to the one in show, and apparently it has somewhat similar vibe.
- Comment on 6 days ago:
It does, but it’s about respecting the wishes of original creator. They want to keep working with him so don’t want to mess up their long term relation with a short term benefit.

Ah, my bad.
If it’s your first camper, I think you have to take them, they won’t leave otherwise.

I can’t get him out of my camp.
This guy comes when you are building something. You probably need to pay more bells before he can complete his work. Dont’ recall if you need to talk to him or go to Town Center and talk to Tom Nook / Isabelle.
My bridge I started is coming alone okay ish. It’s almost 200,000 bells so I’m finding it hard to actually pay for it.
Ah, well that’s why he is there then 😀
After taking care of all the main stuff, we decided to redecorate the whole island and move all the houses, didn’t want to spend too much time earning money so I “cheated” and got into Turnip business. Made tons of money. There used to be online apps where you could enter details of your island and it’s weather for few days and it would deduce the seed of your island, giving you details of turnip prices and when the meteor shower will be etc.
There was also a discord where people shared the prices of turnip in their island, so people would go to island with low rate and then go to island with high rate and sell it there.

A decade late, but still earlier than me! They have been on my wishlist for a long time. Should get around to them soon.

A play!
- Comment on BREAKING: PlayStation is shutting down Bluepoint Games (Demon's Souls/Shadow of the Colossus remakes) 2 weeks ago:
Let’s assume it was the studio’s idea. They wanted to make a game that wasn’t their specialty and Sony let them do it because they didn’t want to stifle creativity. Now it failed miserably.
Sony isn’t going to get the money they lost, so why not course correct and put the studio on what they specialise in?

It would be so fun if they keep the name “Untitled John Wick Game”, like Project Octopath Traveler.

Oh, I won’t worry about that, even if things go bad, it’s an already established universe with lots of fans, perfect for their next live service game setting.

At the time I was sure Elop is some kind of undercover agent from Microsoft.

Heh. I was just kidding. But it would be funny if you did skip some numbers and no one even noticed it 😁
- Comment on Day 555 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 5 weeks ago:
Yeah, it took quite a while to reach the one year milestone, but time seems to have sped up after that.
Are you sure you aren’t skipping numbers? Or posting twice a day? 😀
- Comment on Day 555 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 1 month ago:
555! 111 more for 666! 😀
Congratulations!

Yeah, (without knowing any of your circumstances) no need to rush to anything. Have fun!

Good luck with the move! Moving out? Or just moving to some where else?
- Comment on Switch 2 Sales Reportedly Struggled Over The Christmas Period 1 month ago:
Not sure, I got the impression that all consoles sold worse than usual, but I didn’t actually dig deep into it.
- Comment on Switch 2 Sales Reportedly Struggled Over The Christmas Period 1 month ago:
Oh yeah, that last lines were about Switch 2 doing record sales in first year, not about the holidays sales, should have made it clear.
I agree with all your points about holiday sales, but I am not sure if it means that it’s momentum has slowed down or it just went down because of other expenses and stuff people wanted to buy over this period. Will be interesting if the sales go back up or if they keep going down.
- Comment on Switch 2 Sales Reportedly Struggled Over The Christmas Period 1 month ago:
The same is true of PlayStation and Xbox too (and has been for a decade or more). At least in US, don’t know about Europe. This is not to defend Nintendo, just saying that if that was the issue, it would effect all the consoles, and would have been effecting them for last many years. Average people don’t even know about these, and many probably don’t even care.
There might be more to this, but with the current economy, and consoles getting more expensive instead of cheaper as time goes on could be some of the reasons, IMO. And there weren’t much holiday sales this year.
First year sales are also generally limited by supply, not demand, so it will be interesting to see how Switch 2 does in its second and third years, specially if we do get next PS and Xbox next year.

I remember this area. And if I still remember it, must mean it was a tough area.
- Comment on Day 539 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 1 month ago:
If Max Payne wasn’t in the pic, it would’ve been pretty difficult to guess.
- Comment on Day 538 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 1 month ago:
Yeah, it’s a fun, some of the screenshots can be really tough to guess.
- Comment on Day 537 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 1 month ago:
Heh, an interesting way to play them.
- Comment on Day 537 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 1 month ago:
Why did you play Max Payne 2 before 1? This doesn’t sit right with me! 😀
- Comment on Day 535 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 1 month ago:
It is on my wishlist, glad to see you enjoying it.

- Comment on Left 4 Dead co-creator is directing a mysterious co-op shooter for JJ Abrams' production company, and Sony's going to publish it: "We hope to deliver a bold, innovative experience" 2 months ago:
Not a huge fan of multiplayer games, but can be fun with friends.
As for people who don’t like live service games, Sony has mentioned multiple times that the budget for live service games is completely separate from single player games. The issue was that they previously put their good single player studios to making these games, as long as they get proper third party or specialised studios for these and leave their first party studios for first party, I am happy.
