Again a very likpatous story

I see green in exactly one of those screenshots and it's like a tenth of the image. Kirby has beautiful bright green all around. I'm tired of games having barely any green, or what green they do have is sickly yellowish or brownish green (like the rest of the trees in that screenshot). I mean I guess Elden Ring is supposed to be during a big disaster or whatever but it just makes me depressed when everything in a game looks like it's dead/dying.

Which adds to why it's really neat there's a reason plant life glows gold in Elden Ring. Breaks up the monotony of the extensive greenery.

One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."
Anyone else ever think about how loving cool and good Mario Strikers is going to be.

Also, I was thinking yesterday that if Waluigi had his own game, the genre should be a very weird immersive sim.

"What if Harry Potter but you didn't have to give money to a horrible transphobe" is probably gonna be a popular genre for a bit.

Yup, those are the only playable characters unless they release some DLC in the future.

Speaking of, if anyone’s tried co-op how does Bandanna Dee play in this game out of curiosity?

Bandanna dee is pretty decent. Kinda of a mix between tier 1 sword, gunner, and wind. His basic attack is stab with a slightly longer range. He has an charge aim and throw the spear, increased charge makes him throw a fan of spear. If you charge without using any direction button he does a helicopter thing with his spear running down other spears.

The biggest issue we have been having is that the game pulls the Bandanna Dee towards Kirby if you get too far apart. Some screen it is incredibly strict. During the first boss fight just dodging an attack was enough to rip control away from the 2nd player. Like I full on let the boss hit me, just to let my partner actually play the game.

The tornado power also it really annoying because you move so fast player 2 just get dragged the whole time.

Oh darn, is that the argument? I thought they said there were no colors, then no green.

Kirby & The Forgotten Land is my first big foray into Kirby, and I haven't yet finished it, but I'm glad I jumped on Kirby Star Allies. Even the intro made me smile: look at all the friends he can get! :kimchi:

Star Allies mission statement is pretty much: I LOVE KIRBY! and it was great to understand that. I felt like Winston at the end of 1984 except, you know, joyful. and not broken.

It's ecstatically all about Kirby.

I just found out there'll be a 30th anniversary concert. It has happened yet I think, and I'm excited to be able to listen to it.

Also don't worry about Bandana Dee falling behind when it comes to killing stuff. Even though Kirby can upgrade his abilities, Bandana Dee's damage will still scale up with Kirby's upgrades. (Each copy ability has their own damage multiplier used to boost their DPS, that'll also be applied to Bandana Dee when Kirby is using a copy ability.)

Oh FFX update. Got all the summons and all the celestial weapons. I was going to say gently caress it to Auron's Spheres, cause I have to go through a mega-boss to get it, BUT then I realized I could cheaply grind Yojimbo enough to 1HKO so you know what? I'm going to take my chances.

I haven't tried this much to 100% a game in so long. It's so good.

I’m always shocked that people will put up with the garbage that is Blitzball for one game, much less getting Wakka’s reels. It’s such a terrible, boring mini game with the worst color palette ever.
