NEW LAYTON

I just need to sit down and force myself to get into it again. I know once I get past the Great Bay Temple I’ll start enjoying the game again but there are several hours of tedious gameplay before that.

My only complaint about that game is that the pace of the main story doesn’t match the pace of the game world. Everything else about the world, particularly in hardcore mode, really suits roleplaying but the main quest doesn’t give Henry enough opportunies to do other stuff. You are forced to play out of character and ignore the urgency of the main quest if you want to take your time and enjoy the slow and relaxing atmosphere. Still a great game though, I will complete my second playthrough this year in preparation for the sequel.

EDIT: (As this is a Nintendo community, I should point out that I am playing on PC.)

I’d like to finally finish Majora’s Mask this year, 24 years after I started playing it. The furthest I’ve made it was Ikana Castle, and that was back when I was a kid. My current save file is at the Pirate’s Fortress but I haven’t touched it in over a year. My struggle to complete this game started off as not being very good at it, then I got a bit older it turned into this thing where I didn’t want to finish the game because I didn’t want it to be over and now I’m just so bored of replaying the same bit that every time I attempt another completion I lose interest before I get to the new stuff.

Thanks for sharing!

This is the type of list someone you meet at a party who “loves movies” would give you.

Seventeen-year-olds, last I checked, were kids.

Who said anything about five year olds?

They should, but unfortunately today’s parents have been convinced that the world is extremely dangerous and that letting their children go outside to have adventures and build their confidence is “bad parenting”.

I’ve been scared of animated movies about cute robots ever since WALL-E made me cry within the first 5 minutes.

I agree with you, not really sure why this film wasn’t panned more. It’s just another nostalgia bait reboot filled with derivative ideas taken from its superior predecessors (which is saying a lot, considering how bad Prometheus and Covenant were). Shit like this is exactly what that South Park memberberries episode was making fun of, and that was over eight years ago. The “you bitch” line was so forced it was physically painful to watch.
