Right. I feel like we never are expecting it. And then suddenly the post goes viral & we're just like:

I mean, you weren't wrong though lol.

Perfect game for the Switch! Glad you're having fun with it! 👍

I can confidently say it well deserves the great things being said about it. In fact, I'd like to double down on aforementioned great things lol.

Come for the strong, indie Paper Mario vibes, and stay for the fairytales defeating capitalism 👍

I clocked in at about 25 hours, but bear in mind that was me doing the occasional side quest & taking my sweet time lol.

In the context of most RPGs of this nature, it's shorter than average. I personally thought it was paced pretty perfectly though.

It's an Albany expression.

Was keeping an eye on this indie Paper Mario-like's development for at least a couple years & was *well* worth the wait.

The visuals, gameplay, music, story & humor all work together in an experience every bit as enjoyable as the franchise it emulates imo.

I won't lie: Wish I could try it for not 70 flippin' dollars lol.

Big oof.

Your collection is awesome!! 👍

I can't say the commercial blew my mind or anything, but it was still nice to see! Hype for Pokémon's 30th is cool.

Man, the first MP is... a thing lol. Friends of mine & I enjoy the series on the whole, like you said, but dang.

I mean, *losing coins* & giving them to your opponents when you drew the short straw in a 1 v 3 minigame!? Brutal! 😂 Glad they dropped that moving forward.

All the best, Beth. Practice all the self-care (& video games) that you need.

I'm hangin' in there, my guy. I've recently been enjoying an indie Paper Mario-like called Escape from Ever After. Been helping give my mental health a break. Highly recommend if you're itching for a new, polished turn-based RPG.

How about yourself? Hope you & the fam have been good.

Always a little better when Gary enters the feed 👌

"As long as it's not raining"
Me: Wait what... What's that part refer to--?

[instant flashbacks to rain ruining Link's ability to climb literally anything until the storm blows over]

Me: ...Oh yeah, that's right lol.

A lovely weekend to you, Sora.

Awesome! I was looking forward to hearing what folks' opinions were on its gameplay. From what I've seen, it looks like a decent way to try something new with the 3rd person shooter formula. Keeping my eye on it 👍

Cinnamon rolls for breakfast is a grade-A mom move.
Raisin' em right 👍 lol.

She is the best croissant I ever did see.

The floofiest beans are the superior beans lol.

Likewise 👍

I am a guilty beagle nose booper, that's for sure lol.

Hard agree. Kind of applies for games in the same genre too. Like when they try to tell me a new platformer that just came out feels "safe" or "like others that came before it".

And I'm just like, uhh, okay? I *loved* other platformers that came before it. Sign me up then! lol.
