Pokemon Ultra Sun & Moon are coming out next month, right?

Just make the title a pun about November and the Pokemon move Ember, boom, done. A never before thought of or utilized thread title. I'll be expecting a royalties check in the mail

Want to hear something spooky? I got new internet and decided to test it out by installing some random Steam game I owned. Landed on Dragon Age Origin, and now I’ve been playing that for three hours, it’s pretty fun! Hadn’t touched it in years

What's the end game to Mario because I'm getting a nagging feeling this game is pretty shallow and I'm just getting the bare minimum to see the next world. I'm hoping this is just a world 1 situation of Mario 3D Land and the game is like "you ain't seen poo poo yet, mario time hoo hoo!"

those cubes you've been seeing become activated which add like another 180-200 moons to the game, and there are two additional worlds to unlock (although one of them is just the Champions Run style "do it all in one go" level), three worlds to unlock if you count the one that you go to after the credits which has 100 moons of its own

to unlock all the levels you need 500 moons but of course there are a lot more than that. don't bother buying more than 1 moon from each shop because it won't count towards game completion percentage.

also it should be said that moons make themselves available over time in each stage based on... how many story moons you've completed, how many moons you've collected globally, and whether you've beaten the game. so like, a Lakitu moon just appeared suddenly after I collected enough moons in a certain kingdom and they were definitely non-existent before. so if you are having trouble finding moons, come back later and more might be available. i think there are moons that appear after you beat the game and BEFORE you activate the moon cubes too, because kingdom locals start migrating to other kingdoms, and places like the Luncheon Kingdom hold a festival and poo poo

Alright good to hear I'm more motivated now. It surprises me how many people fell off 3D Land because Nintendo hides all the fun stuff after the fake rear end ending. Am I playing a Tales game, c'mon Nintendo!

Not that Mario has been boring, this is the happiest game Nintendo put out.

there's plenty of fun stuff before you beat the game. it's just packed from start to finish, so that a lot of people will have reached the end having found completely different things. my roommate also has the game and they've found completely different moons than I in kingdoms that I had no idea how he found them.

but the moon pipes are the best because a) They're basically Super Mario 3D World levels, and b) they all have two moons each to keep your eyes wandering. as someone who still thinks 3D World is the best Mario game, this is the best possible compromise Nintendo could've made to please both people like me and Mario 64 fanatics

I thought I saw a SP clip where there were iron crosses all over the place instead of swastikas, that would be a good compromise though

I think it's a testament to my bad taste how much I am enjoying Arkham Knight. The Batmobile, The city, the Joker, the Sidequests, I'm having a blast. I won't 100% the Riddler stuff - which I never cared in any Arkham game - so I'm youtubing the true ending when I finish this, but everything else has been great.

The little sidequests are probably my favorite bit, I love how you fly or drive around finding more of them scattered around and help bring the city back to it's feet.

Also I finally looked up a moon in Mario that I just couldn't figure out because it used a mechanic I hadn't used since the begining of the game. I feel so ashamed :negative:

there's a surface level of moons that are super easy to get and if you're just doing those and moving onto the next world tbh I could see how you might think its shallow, but then there's another layer of moons under that that you can get right now that take a lot more effort to get, and that's before you even get to the post game

Edit: Will I get to a spooky area in Super Mario Odyssey early on? It feels strange to play it on Halloween otherwise
