I never did because I never really needed to up my attack or give myself more elemental protection, I just used the other systems in the game for that.

You make it sound like a job though. Whatever you need is right around you, even those stupid fire lizards. Nintendo's intention was for you to find whatever you needed whichever way you went, that's why seeds and shrines are everywhere. They don't want you frustrated not being able to get the extra weapons or stamina if you want to get them, this is a game for kids.

You can run to gerudo, straight from the plateau and kill the blue hinox and red lynel on the way with the weapons you'll have with no extra inventory slots or hearts. It'll be "hard," but Zelda needed challenge in it's fights for once. I died more on the plateau than in the entire rest of the 3d series (2d too OP) combined.

Try 3 heart no stamina run, gerudo veil for extra style is my favorite, you'll be doing a lot more cooking for lynels when they can knock you in 1.

In MHGU there's a Lagombi in the one star guild quests.

I beat him though, it was easy when I made the Red Stripe. It doesn't have green sharpness, but I think it's significantly faster than any of the other Great Swords available at this point

Ah okay, yeah I don't remember needing anything special on them, and I was also maining greatsword at the time. Now I'm playing Valor Dual Blades and it's AWESOME.

Only the crushers really. Every other lynel is stupid easy once you know their patterns. The spear and sword dudes are free loot and exercise. gently caress the crusher lynels. Even with parrying, you're always a second from getting wrecked. You really have to watch your spacing and be on your cancelling, cause they switch up animations constantly.

Make the money to buy the games then quit your job and go homeless to play the video games. "But Policenaut, where will I play the video games if I don't have a home?" you ask, but remember Switch is portable!

Become so rich you no longer need to work for a living and thus can game all the time. Be ware of dropping your glasses or atrophying muscles and the phrase "but there was time now"

I was a kickstarter backer and I have a 10% discount code I can use to buy the physical game today only. I'm not going to. If any goon wants to try the code, PM me. No guarantee it will work for someone else, but I also don't want to blast it all over the internet.

The new mario party honestly seems... good?

- No car
- Boards are much smaller than usual
- Stars only cost 10 coins, items only cost 5-10
- There's a good amount of items that let you steal stars/coins
- Every character has their own specific dice they can roll instead of the standard dice block, if they so choose. Shy Guy's is a 0 and then nothing but 4s, instead of the 1-6 progression of a standard block, Bowser's is Lose 3 Coins, Lose 3 coins, 1, 7, 8, 9, for instance.
- You can get characters that weren't picked as buddies via items and certain spaces, or winning certain minigames, and that lets you use their dice
- Only two stars are given away at the end

This post doesn't make any sense to me. Watchu mean, homie and why would it matter if other shooters didn't have cloud saving?

I'm pretty sure plenty of them do keep your stats across machines/consoles, but I could be wrong

I honestly don't even know what a Splatoon 2 save entails anyway. Isn't all that stuff tied to my online account? If I accidentally break my Switch and buy a new one and pop in Splatoon 2 is my ranking reset? What about my gear?
