off-topic

[gloomy shuttle]

Which like, yeah.. I do wish they could've spaced them out from one another and added a few more original skins into them as January felt very lacking of them.

But I wouldn't say it's why the game's buggy entirely.

[lapis arch]

Just breaking the laws of physics, dont mind me

[gloomy shuttle]

||and personally, I'd remove the Harry Potter collab out of anything they did add into this season.||

[normal eagle]

self revives werent in the game?

[ornate zinc]

They were

Chapter 7 started with one, which got temporarily removed when the south park came, which itself featured a self revive feature

[normal eagle]

then why does the guys tweet make it seem like there arent self revives?

[sand wraith]

[ornate zinc]

Idk lol

[tall forge]

Well that’s at least semi good

[gloomy shuttle]

I'm hoping they consider the Locker feedback at least.

[gloomy shuttle]

Hoping they implement a QoL improvement towards "Saved Presets" and have a quick and easy swap Preset tab option.

[tall forge]

Or maybe changing the pets color without having to buy another one

[gloomy shuttle]

That too.

I do agree they should at least have the Original & Collab cosmetics be equally balanced at most.

Whether it's lessen them back down a bit for better spacing or just adding more new original skins and stuff.

[tall forge]

I don’t mind collabs but like lately it’s being overwhelmed

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah, and that I partially get.

I just hope however they bring in Cartoon, Anima and Video Game collabs types still into future seasons.

[tall forge]

I would want more game collabs than like movies or tv shows

Granted the last few tv shows and movies I did like

Other than South Park

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah, we never gotten a video game collab this season so far.

But SpongeBob, Ed Edd n Eddy (even if just Ed) and Regular Show were pretty cool to see.

[gloomy shuttle]

Honestly, the only Collab I didn't like seeing this season was Harry Potter.

[tall forge]

Oh yeah I forgot about that

[gloomy shuttle]

And I didn't really care for Kim Kardashian or the content creator collabs. But eh, it's mostly just not my thing personally.

But I get some folks would care for it to an extent. :/

[tall forge]

I also forgot about that

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah.

But yeah, if there was anything they could improve into future seasons for cosmetics. It'd just be a better balance between the original & collab stuff.

That or just having a bit more original skins/cosmetics within each update instead of what was within January.

[gloomy shuttle]

He seems to just be teasing at them returning more than anything during the February 5th update.

Implying this new update will be changing things up a bit for the gameplay.

[gloomy shuttle]

Either way, I just worry if it lead to another "Chapter 5, Season 2" type of ordeal for collab picks. 😩

[ornate zinc]

Actually this could be worse than chapter 5 season 2

Cause at least chapter 5 season 2 collabs items were fun to use

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah, but other than Avatar: The Last Airbender.. it was just NBA, Nike, Adidas, and then Star Wars for cosmetics because of an event.

I forgot what other collabs they did for C5S2 otherwise, they we're kinda forgettable.

[ornate zinc]

Most of the collabs fit the theme

Except like guardian of the galaxy and star wars

Oh and My Hero Academia
But that was a new wave

[gloomy shuttle]

It's just most of the collabs besides Avatar weren't really "new" new was my problem.

And although yes, most did fit a theme. Most weren't really as exciting personally.

The Avatar event with the BR mythics were really fun tho.

[ornate zinc]

Tho shop items and BR are different issues

[gloomy shuttle]

People think it's why BR's having problems which I don't get.

[ornate zinc]

So no one really has a big issue with south parks items in the shop
Just BR

Separate issues tho

Just because something doesn’t necessarily means it a automatically problem in BR

People are just tired of the south parks items

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah, I do agree this event wasn't really as memorable with how it was handled.

[ornate zinc]

It not handled well because it literally didn’t add much lmao

[gloomy shuttle]

It was only the Stick of Truth and Cheesy Poofs which weren't really exciting items

[ornate zinc]

Cheesy poofs are just a better chug jug, and the Kenny Token is just a better self revive that was already in the same season beforehand

Stick of truth is the real exciting thing which isn’t even guaranteed

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah.

[ornate zinc]

Frankly i genuinely don’t think they could do much with south parks items in BR to begin with

[gloomy shuttle]

Especially with the kind of show it was anyway.

[ornate zinc]

Yep

So this collab was bound to fail in BR

[gloomy shuttle]

South Park isn't a bad choice to have in Fortnite per say, but definitely doesn't work for an event with not much material to work around.

Unlike say The Simpsons could get away with

Or Avatar: The Last Airbender.

If anything, Looney Tunes would've been better for a dedicated event.

[ornate zinc]

It probably why the cheesy poofs and the kenny death token was selected despite rarely or never appearing in the new episode

Both things are from the old seasons

[gloomy shuttle]

I will say however, I wouldn't mind if they occasionally do original mini events on rare occasions.

Like they tried with Most Wanted during Chapter 4.

[tall forge]

Soup

[tall forge]

Did some technical stuff on my pc

[wild shale]

when the pc is techinical

[tall forge]

Doing a bit of emulation set up

[wild shale]

oh nice

[normal eagle]

what emulator?

[tall forge]

This time an Xbox 360 emulator

And I found out quickly it’s one of the worst emulators I’ve messed with so far

Also on the plus side I almost made back all my gta money

[wild shale]

i stopped using 360 emulator since the only game i used it for was sonic unleashed and that fan recomp is better than any emulation

[tall forge]

There’s 2 games I wanna emulate 1 beautiful katamari and 2 Forza horizon 1

I have both games physically but want them on my pc

I can’t think of any other games that’s why it took me awhile to finally do it

[wild shale]

ah fair enough

[gloomy shuttle]

But still, I wouldn't mind if they had to lessen the collabs down into future seasons for a steady roll out.

But I just fear the odds they'd pick ones that just aren't interesting/exciting personally.

[tall forge]

Almost like I never bought every cloths

so all these collabs this season means we wont get any during the rest of the chapter right

[inland grotto]

Diablo 1 Quest 3 Skeleton King. pixel art
Or King Leoric, if you will. I wanted a close up of him in front and center with his army of skeletons behind him. Felt like a nice way to represent the quest.
He's not such a hard boss if you have holy bolt.

(sorry, quest 2 had some gore and didn't feel right to share here in the fall guys server)

[wild shale]

[gloomy shuttle]

No, because even if they did.. people are still gonna want certain collabs to happen.

It lives in that infamy now.

At most, they need to slow down a tad bit on collabs and put a little more emphasis towards original skins in the updates.

[ornate zinc]

All original skins next season, no collabs

[gloomy shuttle]

Having trouble with sleeping?

[tall forge]

Yup

[gloomy shuttle]

Oof.

[gloomy shuttle]

I mean, if the original skin choice are fairly solid. Then sure I guess.

I don't mind a small batch of collabs in the way it was during Chapter 5 or whatnot, but I would hope one of the picks would be exciting.

[limpid reef]

that would be funny but that would also be like their worst profits ever LMAO

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah, and the collabs are their revenue.

I do agree this season has been a little too overwhelming on them even by previous seasons.

At most, Fortnite just really needs to up their game to addressing the various bugs/fixes and QoL improvements needed for this game right now.

[limpid reef]

oh im just. messing around again ive barely noticed the collabs because i havent been playing much

[gloomy shuttle]

This season's fine, but it's been having it's issues. Especially within January.

South Park event was meh (though nice to seeing mini events come back) and the game's been pretty buggy lately

[gloomy shuttle]

I got done with the South Park event and currently prioritizong with Rocket League and recently Ghost Trick.

Which speaking of Rocket League, I'm close to reach Level 69 and finishing this pass and having 1,000 Credits.

[ornate zinc]

So the shop gotten over 70 skins this season

Around more than 50 of those are collabs

[limpid reef]

lmao !

[gloomy shuttle]

At most, they'll likely slow down on the collaborations and try to give the original skins some balance at least into future seasons.

At least within Battle Royale anyway.

Because anything related to LEGO, Festival and anything within Rocket League is another boat of it's own.

[gloomy shuttle]

Haven't seen it, but heard Ian Jones Quartey (of OK KO fame) was involved as the voice director for it

[ornate zinc]

Rip Ok KO, it deserved another season to wrap it up properly

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah, it's such a good show. 😭

[gloomy shuttle]

Rigby has some archival audio lines from the show.

One of his lines being "Haters gonna hate!".

[hazy rune]

I got gamepass ultimate and got fortnite crew. They should do that with ps+ premium tbh as well.

Maybe there should nintendo online/expansion pack benefits also

[ornate zinc]

PS plus gets exclusive packs

[gloomy shuttle]

The baby ducks backbling are reactive

[hazy rune]

It would be nice for crew to be added for the highest tier

[gloomy shuttle]

It better be them going OOOOOOH. lol

[hazy rune]

The packs are on the lowest tiers so most people would be able to get them

[hazy rune]

Oh yeah regular show got added today?

[ornate zinc]

Skips look better ingame than in the shop video tbh

[hazy rune]

I feel like they could of maybe done the SpongeBob collab a bit better than just a sidekick like they did with the south park skins

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah just now

He does, they fixed his chest for instace.

I might get Skips one day.

[wary loom]

Yeah. I even watched release of episode 0 on Sam Procastinate channel

[gloomy shuttle]

But for right now, I wanna save.

The emotes are kinda meh. The skipping is amusing, but I wouldn't use it too much

But the skins look good and the pickaxes are nice.

like cupheads or maybe anime collabs like miku and OPM

or were all these limited time

stop spamming dude

[charred axle]

The Only Collabs that are Currently Available in Fall Guys are All the Disney Collabs and a Few Costumes from the Devolver Collabs (Enter the Gungeon, Gato Roboto, Hotline Miami, The Messenger, and My Friend Pedro)

oh, thats.. underwhelming

[sand wraith]

Finally finished and uploaded my avatar

[tall forge]

[gloomy shuttle]

This is why I'm just kinda whatever with original skins and only buy it if I just like the design enough

I'm already good with the current set of skins at this moment, the only original skins I'd want is just more animal ones.

[limpid reef]

it looks nice but it feels very stock standard fn valentines design

like if i were to envision that it would. basically just look like that

happens a lot
oh, thats a neat idea!
oh, thats. underwhelming

[gloomy shuttle]

I dunno, at most.. the original skins I buy is if they're nicely designed.

The Pingwin was my last original skin I bought

[normal eagle]

i had a really funny clip in dbd, i wish i could share it

Probably because it is
A lot of female Fortnite basically have similar or the same facial features and clothes

What hilarious is that people didn’t like the newest crew cause the face wasn’t feminine enough

[limpid reef]

probably wouldnt have guessed that if you didnt tell me tbh

like i can tell it looks a little different than what they normally do? but

[limpid reef]

they seem to be more afraid of giving the girls more out there designs

how many. catgirls do we need truly LMAO i feel like weve got several

[ornate zinc]

A lot

[limpid reef]

commit to making furries....

slightly bitter about the squid n octopus ladies from a few weeks back

[gloomy shuttle]

I wish they were a little more diverse in terms of body types, but alas. 😔

I think one of the few exceptions was like Penny (?).

There are some original female designs I do like such as Keisha Cross, Valeria, just to name a few in mind.

[limpid reef]

pretty pleeease

theyre not like completely non-diverse but

pretty pleease...

[ornate zinc]

That one of the things males has over female skins

There not a lot of muscular, nor heavier girls skins due to them not being liked as well

Mainly muscular women

I can only name like one skin

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah, it sucks because it would at least make them nice and varied.

But nah, people just want them in crop tops and then sometimes just complain when they do so.

[limpid reef]

the crop tops are more fun when contrasted by other things

[gloomy shuttle]

I don't hate the crop tops, just that there are people that get tired of it.

But some people pick the survey skins and all, so like..

[limpid reef]

no theyre good its just. i need more variety in skins

[gloomy shuttle]

Agreed

[limpid reef]

theres a lotta filler

not necessarily more than in other live service games but

[gloomy shuttle]

Again, It's why I'm usually picky with originals especially when there's already so many items I do wanna get.

[limpid reef]

yeah

im. generally easy to please
easy enough to spend $7.99 usd? uh

[gloomy shuttle]

And even then, my draw is just the collabs if it's from a series I happened to really love or if it's a character I favor.

But I've bought original skins from time to time when one sticks out to me

Doughberman, Safety Guard Steve & Pingwin we're those.

[limpid reef]

i dont get collabs generally

i wanna be fluffy woman primarily. the main appeal i get out of most collabs is giggling

[gloomy shuttle]

And that's fair.

I do wish there still could've been a little more towards original skins in this season tho.

The January updates felt very lackluster on them and it didn't really help a ton as it was during a South Park event. 💀

no actually that sucks for compatibility and familiarity though

I'm wayyy too dependent on adobe acrobat 😭

There's better alternatives tho

Honestly what exactly is the point of discontinuing it, they might as well let people keep the program

Since people would be less mad at that

[limpid reef]

are they gonna like. block people out of it?

basically lock people out of the program once it expires so yeah

It's just me or it's impossible to use the search bar to look up for islands in FN?

I have been trying to type something but it just feels like there's no way to use it

[ornate zinc]

Seem like the groundhog predicted 6 more weeks of winter

[wild shale]

they dont want you to search, they want you to use the reccomended stuff

[versed yacht]

I wouldn't be surprised if that's the case

Like... in detects the South Park tab as a button and the cursor always goes there instead of going to the search bar, so it's impossible to look up any island

Another console has beaten the Wii U.

[hollow dove]

Hmmm interesting that the switch 1 version has sold more than the switch 2 version

It Is Kirby tbf

It's Gained Quite a Lot of Traction on the Switch, so it Makes Sense that it Still Does on the Switch 2

ooh new puzzle

[versed yacht]

It's a PS4 exclusive bug
How surprising...

[tall forge]

Honestly still surprised it’s been like 12 years and the ps4 is still being supported

I thought of a wild second monitor idea

Basically getting a tiny monitor to attach above an elgato stream deck

Diablo 1 Quest 7 - Arkaine's Valor
In this one you have to find three blood stones to fill a magic altar with blood which unlocks the door to the eponymous armor. Not much else to it, so I thought the alter was the best thing to draw, since it is so intricate looking.

[tall forge]

There was 1% I was missing in the cotl dlc and I found out what it was

So both main game and dlc are now 100%

Technically this was already the case for the rank modes as there toggle to switch to them quickly
But i guess they’re finally combining zero build and br as toggles

[gloomy shuttle]

I just hope the option sticks as to what I placed tho.

Since I just do Zero Build instead of regular Builds.

[limpid reef]

would make it easier to find the br modes
although i think id rather the discovery page not be a terrible congested mess

[gloomy shuttle]

Honestly, they seriously need to make the top menu of Discover be personalized and not just by "Popularity".

I forgot labo happened tbh

Considering it mainly all cardboard

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah, but for those that have Labo. There's that I guess.

Still wish I didn't need an additional peripheral for Virtual Boy games. 💀

[tall forge]

Dang still no v bucks missions

[ornate zinc]

@limpid reef we won 🙌

[tall forge]

[limpid reef]

oh wow

[gloomy shuttle]

Glad everyone stood up against Adobe's baffling decision.

[charred axle]

[gloomy shuttle]

Well yeah, Virtual Boy is also on Switch 1.

That reminds me! I might need help on Crown Jam if you could, Kurtis.

[charred axle]

Yeah ik, just thought it was Funny

[ornate zinc]

Tbh, lobo’s cardboard isn’t gonna last that long

[charred axle]

I've Gone Out for the Day (Since I Go to a Clinical Psychologist in the City on Wednesdays), so I Unfortunately Can't Play Today

[gloomy shuttle]

Aah, that's fine then.

Oh right! There's that new Muppet Show revival special happening tomorrow

[charred axle]

Kinda Thinking about Getting the Cardboard Model (As Well as the Virtual Boy Accessory for the VB NC App) so that I Have a Switch 2 Edition of the Labo VR Kit tbh

[ornate zinc]

Cardboard is a material that doesn’t last very long

[charred axle]

Yeah, True. The Piano in My Variety Kit for Example has been Falling Apart, but Me Moving Houses Constantly Wouldn't Have Helped Either, so I Feel Like if I Take Good Care of the Cardboard Model, I'd Get Around 5-10 Years Worth

[gloomy shuttle]

With that said, being able to play Virtual Boy games is great to have officially and a color changing option is good (even if it'll take months to happen).

But it still sucks that it's tied to a peripheral specifically and they aren't cheap either

[ornate zinc]

I just think lobo is neat for a short period of time, but it not worth getting if you don’t use it a lot immediately

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah, the whole Labo thing didn't seem interesting enough to wanna get it.

[tall forge]

7,500 v bucks

Only thing I would want to buy would be the regular show stuff

[ornate zinc]

It a neat idea on paper
But irl, it not a very long lasting idea

[charred axle]

Yeah, that's Fair. I Enjoyed My Time with All Of Them, Especially with How Long I Played Them For, SobI Think I'm Satisfied, Even If I Don't Play Them Again

Building All Of Them was Very Cool, and Very Interesting to See How They All Worked Too

[charred axle]

https://youtu.be/mwItGs1rLg4

[gloomy shuttle]

Ngl, I had a hunch in me that it was gonna happen.

Sunshine might very well be the next GameCube game cuz of Mar10 Day.

[charred axle]

Depends on if they Wanna Announce the Pokémon GameCube Games on Pokémon Day's Pokémon Presents

[gloomy shuttle]

True, they could. However, they normally have 2 Nintendo Classics updates at most.

[charred axle]

Yeah, but They Usually Have 2 Nintendo Classic App Updates Per Month. For Example, in 2025, 9 out of the 12 Months Have Had Updates to at Least 2 of the Apps

[ornate zinc]

This year also marks the 40th legend of zelda anniversary which is also twilight princess’s 20th anniversary

Oh and Pikmin 25th anniversary, but Nintendo really doesn’t do much for that series sadly

So expect legend of zelda to have some games coming on the switch emulator soon

Or a port/remake

Would love a remaster of the remastered 3D port of OOT and Majora Mask

[charred axle]

Could be Both a Port/Remake and NC Addition tbh

[ornate zinc]

Yep, tho tears of the kingdom was confirmed to not have any additional contents DLCs after release

If you exclude Zelda Notes (which are only included if you have the switch app), then that statement is still technically correct

[charred axle]

Yeah, I Remember Them Saying That, and I Don't Blame Anyone for Excluding Zelda Notes from the S2E Versions, since that Additional Content isn't as Significant as other S2E Games

[ornate zinc]

I also don’t see any new games coming out for this year besides ports and remasters

[charred axle]

Yeah, there Won't be a New Zelda for a While, Especially Since I Feel that They Wanna Make a New Era of Zelda, since Age of Imprisonment seems to be the Last BotW Era Game

[ornate zinc]

Well not only that, but the games aren’t returning to it original roots

Which sucks

I didn’t enjoy BOTW

[tall forge]

Same

[charred axle]

Ehh, Idk, I've Heard that BotW Takes Inspiration from the NES Game, which is Kinda Neat

I Enjoyed It tho

[gloomy shuttle]

I care as one who doesn't have a PS5/Xbox/PC. 🥺

Not really worried about their first party line-up tbh since this wouldn't be their first rodeo either.

We'll probably see an actual Direct in March or so. Unless Nintendo decides to do one the week or two after it.

[long marten]

I know that it's most likely not gonna happen but what are the odds that helldivers 2 gets a switch 2 port announced in this direct tbh

[gloomy shuttle]

Helldivers 2 would be neat.

[charred axle]

I Do Believe the Devs have Expressed Interest in a Switch 2 Port, so it Could Happen Sooner or Later

[tall forge]

Yes I got to level 800 today while also getting 80 million

[long marten]

yeah as long if I can transfer over my progress from xbox onto there if it ever happens though

[gloomy shuttle]

So about a similar length to the last Partner Showcase, sounds about right.

I expect something with Duskbloods amongst the third party stuff.

[ornate zinc]

Hoping this means less 3rd party stuff for the main nintendo direct if we get one this month

[gloomy shuttle]

Doubtful

Even then, the most likely thing we'll likely get out of this month is just a new generation of Pokemon is happening in 2026.

And then maybe a general March Direct.

[inland grotto]

Diablo 1 Quest 8 Chamber of Bone.
A fun concept as a quest: a cursed room that dooms any who die in it in search of treasure to rise again as a skeleton to defend it from more thieves. The reward is this tome which teaches you a spell. Maybe the best skulls I've drawn in a while

[earnest hill]

When was the last time, if ever, something major was announced at a partner direct?

My guess is it’s mostly about RE9

[wild shale]

there has been a few big announcements at partner directs, but i feel this one will mostly be about ports to switch 2

im expecting both clair obscur and blue prince to get announced

plus duskbloods will probably finally get more info

[gloomy shuttle]

It's still relatively exciting though knowing Nintendo in the past have usually been slow in keeping up with the other consoles in power.

And third party support still matters even if you might not prefer playing it on said console.

Especially if you've already have another console for it.

[wild shale]

oh yeah for sure

we had a few big ports recently with hifi rush and dispatch

oh wait hifi rush is still rumored

[gloomy shuttle]

Like, I get most come to the Switch 2 hoping for more first party games at launch of the system.

But it's clear that Nintendo isn't in any significant danger to make a robust launch.

At most, 2027/2028 will likely be the point to where Nintendo fires up further into more first party titles

[sonic ferry]

Where is the 4DS and Wii Ultra

We needs ta go back

[sonic ferry]

I didn’t like the switch from the beginning

It would’ve been better to stay on their peak consoles

[wild shale]

its kinda wild we are close to a decade since smash ultimate

i do think we will get a new smash release, but what itll be will be interesting

whether it is an ultimate plus, or a new game

personally id prefer a new game with a smaller roster, but they all have revamped movesets

cause its very obvious which characters came later

most of the dlc characters all have a gimmick mechanic

meanwhile 64 characters are mostly just punches and kicks

[sonic ferry]

As I am currently on the project for the next and final smash game, what were some of the things you liked and disliked about smash ultimate. I work with Nintendo

I’m an assistant staff

[wild shale]

uh not enough sonic characters

replace every character with sonic characters

[sonic ferry]

Yeah but to do that we’ll need to make them slower than mario, so to ensure that SEGA doesn’t put sonic’s foot in front of mario

[wild shale]

not the olympics curse

[sonic ferry]

✅

[gloomy shuttle]

It'll probably be given the reboot treatment if anything, I would prefer a Switch 2 Edition of Ultimate instead personally.

But that would be very unlikely.

Orange in Overwatch

[normal eagle]

so, is this basically just a normal poker game but with those characters cuz thats pretty funny if its just straight up normal poker

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah, it's a fun little Poker-esque game and you get interactions between the characters from their respective series.

The first was only on PC originally, but they had a follow up that went onto other consoles as well.

[wary loom]

yeah. I was listening to podcast just after it was released

Also next week Tangle and Whisper will probably join Crossworlds

[normal eagle]

ive heard of all those characters before except tycho (i think that was his name)

[gloomy shuttle]

Yeah, and the follow-up would have Sam, Ash Williams (Evil Dead), Brock Samson (of The Venture Bros.) and Claptrap.

Max sticking around for both games of course.

[normal eagle]

i might get it, it kind of looks fun

[gloomy shuttle]

Tycho is also the only character I barely know of at all. But he was a web comic character for Penny Arcade or something. Though recalled it had it's controversies in the past. 😬

But I definitely was aware of Strong Bad, Max & Heavy Weapons Guy.

[normal eagle]

apparently they wont be styles, instead its different outfits

No way

Wonder if they’re gonna do the second game too

I believe they will eventually.

[gloomy shuttle]

That's cool I suppose, it was rumored to happen. So I never doubted.

Hopefully that Bear skin from the survey becomes a reality.

This is teasing the third game coming watch

[gloomy shuttle]

Also, they're adding David Bowie's Starman in the new pass.

[tall forge]

I saw

[gloomy shuttle]

Ah gotcha.

Honestly, it's the only song in this pass I care about

Otherwise, I hate that they've been pushing more AI music in the free tiers.

[tall forge]

Can’t wait for poker night to release and people not knowing how to play poker

[gloomy shuttle]

I played the second game, but never the first cuz it was only on PC.

But it finally not only re-releasing, but even onto consoles is exciting.

[tall forge]

I haven’t played either of them but seen them

[gloomy shuttle]

I'm hoping after the Poker Night games that maybe they bring back and re-releasing Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People next.

[tall forge]

You mean little heavy

[ornate zinc]

@fresh falcon i have bad news
Ranked reload is gonna be reset soon

But BR rank is gonna stay

[fresh falcon]

I'm already done with reload

I got the shiny blue pickaxe

I was done like two weeks ago

I thought you knew that

[ornate zinc]

Exactly, but I mean you have to do it again

If there new items of course

[fresh falcon]

You know, doing it again is probably going to be annoying. But it's doable

[ornate zinc]

Hoping they don’t do any rewards this time

[fresh falcon]

Yeah fair enough

My best guess is that they're gonna just reset map mastery. And piss off everyone

Luckily I completed that already as well

[ornate zinc]

They already updated that one, and confirmed nightmare island is coming back

[fresh falcon]

Well then, at least we're on a fun map

[ornate zinc]

I imagine the rewards is gonna be lamps

[fresh falcon]

Well, at least we got a new ice king costume

Hello everyone, I have a bad news today, my grandpa is dead 😭🥀

They’re staying until march

[normal eagle]

people are hating on this >:( how could they hate on this, this is peak hero design

[tall forge]

I hate it

/j

Reminds me of a recent hero the moba I play added from another remake of paragon

[normal eagle]

people are saying it doesnt fit... can i point you to the giant talking gorilla

[normal eagle]

i cant get into moba's, theres alot to learn and they [the playerbase] arent willing to let new players learn without trash talking them

[tall forge]

Completely fair

[gloomy shuttle]

And hamster.

[tall forge]

They did add a more friendly battle mode

[gloomy shuttle]

The hamster with a giant ball mech is right there

[tall forge]

Where it’s still sorta moba concept but just more 5v5 battle focused

[normal eagle]

people arent willing to accept that we finally got the most peak hero design :3

and nothing will top it

[normal eagle]

oh alright

[tall forge]

I believe other games have it too it’s called aram

Just a single lane

[normal eagle]

when i was playing smite 2 with a friend i think there was a mode similar with the one lane

[tall forge]

There used to be an even more battle mode

The map was small and it was just minions that spawned

It was like a points system any minion that would go to the enemy’s portal they would loose a point any hero deaths would be 5 points and a giant minion can spawn after several hero’s died and that would be 10 points if it makes it across

[normal eagle]

that i could likely play

[tall forge]

They got rid of that mode

Since it was a low player count for it

[gloomy shuttle]

I guess thankfully I don't have to spend anything out of this collab then.

[gloomy shuttle]

I got a win in Venture for Reload now

Just need one more for all three maps

[hazy rune]

Nice i just mainly play story mode as I don’t really like the style of gta online but I might if i play it more. The next gen version for ps5 and Enhanced for PC might make me want to play though.

Im glad fortnite is doing cool stuff with valentines since they haven’t for a while

[hazy rune]

I heard mastery quests end march or april (i think it’s april) we most likely will get a new map as well i assume.

I finish all passes other than the new festival pass

[ornate zinc]

They also accidentally brought back research

[tall forge]

Is the game even up rn?

[ornate zinc]

No

[gloomy shuttle]

And they placed Starman at the near end of the Music Pass. 😑

So I have to grind on getting this one before my Crew expires.

[wild shale]

starman?

[gloomy shuttle]

David Bowie song

[wild shale]

oh

i thought it was gonna be a different one

[gloomy shuttle]

They added the one peak thing in this pass

[wild shale]

theres a starman, waiting in the pass...

The rest are just meh and half of the free music stuff is "potentially" generative AI songs. 💀

The paid tiers are real licensed music at least, but I miss where it was original Fortnite music for the free tiers.

I'mma be real, as much as it had it's issues. I'm already missing Chapter 6 tbh.

[gloomy shuttle]

Currently trying to update both of my Switch systems.

So I can start my grinding today.

Any ideas on what map/modes(s) are the best to grind XP fast?

I need to get back sleeping soon after I get them both done

[long marten]

I wonder what the 0010 thing is all about the automaton taking over the server possibly?

[hazy rune]

The reorganization of Fortnite game modes is good but they could of put all the lego and festival modes in one thing on the menu as well

They already have a working menu for festival to switch between gamemodes

[normal eagle]

let's go

[wild shale]

i didnt realise feb was pride month now

[normal eagle]

so i put this in a binary translator, it came out in swedish. i then put that into a translator to english and it says 'You have been deceived by your leaders. The words they speak is not true. We want peace.'

[normal eagle]

every month is pride month

[wild shale]

[ornate zinc]

Sighs

[tall forge]

[normal eagle]

bold of fortnite to assume people have friends playing the game right now

[tall forge]

What are friends?

Right answer

[ornate zinc]

Next update should be our final update for the season so it hilarious to see how bad the dev somehow messed up this season

[normal eagle]

yea seems like chapter 7 isnt off to a good start

[tall forge]

I liked this chapters start but it’s just fizzled out

[wild shale]

the cutting on this trailer is hilarious

[charred axle]

@perfectlycutmoments

[wild shale]

[ornate zinc]

4 more minutes

What is the final announcement

[wild shale]

mario kart 12

[charred axle]

peak

[wild shale]

peak 2

oh hi

[charred axle]

[long marten]

"last announcement" I wonder what that one will be actually

oh it's just fallout 4

[wild shale]

we are adding todd howard to switch 2

[hushed aurora]

What the

Helly

[ornate zinc]

Okay i’m picking up donuts now

[wild shale]

lmao it looks so bad

this is switch 1 footage... right?

[charred axle]

[ornate zinc]

This was not worth the final announcement

[hushed aurora]

😭

Bros the goat but not that much of a goat

[wild shale]

pretty sure that fallout 4 and indiana jones were already announced for switch 2

[charred axle]

Yeah, these are Just the Release Dates

[hushed aurora]

Man

[wild shale]

no wae... a game from 2008 on switch 2?!?!

[charred axle]

Oh, I Don't Think This Was Announced

[hushed aurora]

I'm going to cry

[wild shale]

yeah this wasnt announced, but like...

[hushed aurora]

I woke up for this

💀

[ornate zinc]

I forgot this direct happened tbh

I mainly woke up for shopping

[wild shale]

this couldve been an email ah direct

[hushed aurora]

I'm excited for hollow knight

[wild shale]

75% of this stuff we already knew was coming

[hushed aurora]

But other then that uh

Yeah

[charred axle]

It was Alright

[long marten]

honestly the card game looks interesting for me but other than that this direct was kinda underwhelming imo

[gloomy shuttle]

Ngl, this Partner Showcase felt like filler

[ornate zinc]

Now the real direct is coming

[gloomy shuttle]

Mostly cuz it's game we already knew of

Beyond a few announcements

[wild shale]

the biggest thing for me is that most of the ports looked pretty bad

like they look like switch 1 ports

[gloomy shuttle]

They're probably gonna save the "major" third party stuff on the actual Direct instead.

[long marten]

did anyone catch the release date for that game genuinely curious

[gloomy shuttle]

Which ones particularly?

[ornate zinc]

There also the pokemon direct

[wild shale]

the bethesda ones minus indiana jones but also some of the earlier ones like e-football

going from that fallout 4 footage to indiana jones is hilarious the visual difference

[gloomy shuttle]

The only thing out of it that'll be interesting is just Gen 10.

The rest will just be padded with the usual mobile game updates and whatnot that a Pokemon Direct usually fills it with.

[wild shale]

the highlights of the direct for me
orbitals (which we already know about but it looks good)
the retro games plus bomberman

also wait did they not announce fallout 76

bruh thats the most obvious one to port

[gloomy shuttle]

The Super Bomberman collection was dope

[long marten]

ah

that's fine it's not like that I have other games to complete while waiting anyway

[gloomy shuttle]

And there being a Console Archives collection is cool

[charred axle]

Yeah I was About to Say the Same

[wild shale]

looks at the first half of 2026 release schedule

[gloomy shuttle]

Also, Doraemon mentioned.

[wild shale]

after last year i was like, "yeah 2026 will be quiet"

i was wrong

[charred axle]

My Highlights were:
Hollow Knight S2E
Bomberman Collection
Console Archives
Goat Simulator 3 S2E

[gloomy shuttle]

Bomberman collection & Console Archives

Also Oblivion is cool too, I guess.

But otherwise, this Direct was kinda boring.

[charred axle]

Yeah, the Big Games they Showed Off were Neat too, like FF7, RE, Elder Scrolls, etc.

[gloomy shuttle]

Only because half of it was games we knew we're happening. But they get a release date.

[ornate zinc]

They’re saving kingdom hearts ports for the main direct

[wild shale]

Aw hell nah, they got the high command

[normal eagle]

they've been tweeting binary like that every few hours

[inland grotto]

Diablo 1 Quest 9 Halls of the Blind
You read about this one on a tome and then explore the actual place. It is very cramped, dark and full of invisible enemies called the hidden. I think I managed to encapsule the entire thing on this drawing.

[sand wraith]

They are returning

[normal eagle]

hopefully they wont be as boring as the illuminates

[gloomy shuttle]

Btw, the new Fortnite update got more bugs now. 💀

[normal eagle]

new update that introduces more bugs, what is this dead by daylight

[gloomy shuttle]

I'mma be real, I miss Chapter 6 already.

Sure it wasn't great, but this Season 1 has been getting rougher.

[normal eagle]

yea im kind of just waiting for season 2 to start

and if season 2 sucks then i might just take a break for the chapter

[gloomy shuttle]

And it sucks too cuz it started out fine.

But the bugs and just certain scummy parts within Epic that's been bothering me.

[normal eagle]

the season has just been boring... id rather watch paint dry

[gloomy shuttle]

Doesn't help given the length itself is a little too long.

[gloomy shuttle]

I got done watching that new Muppet Show pilot thing.

It's a fun watch.

[normal eagle]

[ornate zinc]

Rippppp

[gloomy shuttle]

Well, at least I don't have to play Fortnite after this point then.
