I've remained a peach main until MK8. Now I split my time pretty much evenly between Peach, Inkling Girl, and Larry

I use the stock dirtbike.

Dear diary, I got another erection today at work. SO embarrassing, but kinda hot. The CO asked me to fix up his dress uniform. I had stayed late at work to move his badges 1/8" to the left and pointed it out this morning. 1SG spanked me while the CO watched, once they caught it. Tomorrow I get to start all over again...

For some reason it still isn't showing the discount for me in a browser, but I verified the discounts are live if you go to the Switch eShop. But yeah, this should list it all, albeit you can't tell which is on discount: https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/rocket-league-switch#add-on-content

Yep, there's 4 car bodies you start with and you unlock 6 from regular play. (That might be 5 and 7 with the Switch exclusives, come to think of it.) And there are, I think, a hundred+ of items that drop normally, covering antennae, toppers, boosts, decals, banners, wheels, goal explosions... A lot of stuff.

To get deeper in it there are car bodies and items only found in crates - boo! - but there are ways to get them without paying to open totally-not-gambling-boxes; trading with other players, basically. The current holiday event also lets you trade snowflakes for decryptors, a free way to open loot crates.

Anything found in DLC, though, is only in that DLC. You can see people using the stuff but are locked out of it.

I will once again say that I am not ashamed to spend about $50 a year on crate keys because Psyonix pushes tons of free content out. Case in point the holiday themed stuff.

You are right, Psyonix has said their various agreements with the platforms makes this impossible. Definitely sad 'cause I have a lot of neat stuff on steam.

Oh and to just add on to DLC and crate stuff: yeah, it is all cosmetic, and different cars are not really better than others. The only differences between car bodies are their hit boxes and turning radii, so it's all about getting a feel for what you like and going for fresh styles.

e: didn't see this before but

:ssh: me too. The new free modes they add are dope and although I'm a little bummed out at how they've standardized arenas, they keep adding cool new ones. And yeah, it's just outstanding how alive the game is for being a two-year-old, multiplayer-only indie title. Some of the crates are pretty rad, too.

If BOTW had gotten a more critical response we would have seen "Y'all are wrong for hating the game and here's why" articles but since it got pretty widespread adoration I guess that means we get these flip-side "Y'all are wrong for loving the game and here's why" pieces instead.

All the author does is point out the climbing is different from rear end Creed and the stamina is different from Nioh.

They seem to miss it entirely. It's like they didn't even understand that the game was going for a wild adventure into the open unknown.

The map system is supposedly getting some attention in a coming patch. Hopefully it turns out well cause I'm putting the game on the back burner until it drops.

Can't say that BrawlOut makes a very good first impression in the tutorial. They advertise no grabs, then put you up against a guy that's all grabs. Also the controls are just a bit too precise and make me think Smash Bros kind of guesses what you're trying to do. Recovery's kind of a fucker in BrawlOut so far.

I feel like if it wasn't quite so snappy it'd be more fitting with expectations. Charging smashes is also really finicky, which is throwing me off.
