Eluvianii

Yes, but the wii version.

A little uncertainty would have been nice though. Back to the thread, I just finished Metroid Prime. That was pretty intense, I had a really rough time with some stuff even though I was on the easiest difficulty. Is this game hard or am I just bad at FPS? Either way, it was amazing and I can't wait to start Echoes.

A bit late (alright, really late) but thoughts on the season as a whole? I personally enjoyed it a lot, especially the episode about Tesla, that quote at the end was brilliant. Regarding the end of the season (spoiled because, just in case someone else was lazy like me)

Whenever something bad or weird happens, make a loud comment about how the universe must be a drunk monkey.

Oh, no worries. My imagination just gets a little wild whenever I learn something. "So those two survive, but maybe some of the others don't? But maybe this means this other thing is true. But according to that poster from six years ago..." you know what I mean?

They're from Hajimari, since we're getting increasingly more information as the release date approaches. I hope it does hook you, it can be slow and anime-tropey at first, but it builds upon that base until events happen too fast for you too process and you realize the characters are not the one-dimensional tropes they seemed to be.

I haven't watched everything yet (still missing The Irishman and Parasite), but so far it's my favorite from 2019.

Maybe I'm just reading too much into it. I hope that's the case, it wouldn't be the first time.

Not really a quote but: "Why isn't the game unlocked yet? It has been 5 seconds since midnight!"

I feel as though I've been indirectly spoiled with that information.

Oooh, that sound really fun actually. And it's a relief. I learned about this when I saw some people scared that it would be mandatory or at least important to have a VR set.

Jojo Rabbit: I Lost my Body:

The next game in the series to come out (later this year). It goes after the 4 Cold Steel games. We surely won't hear about it in the west for a couple years but by then it'll be probably know as Trails of the Beginning.

So, I heard something about Hajimari having VR features...?

Huh. Well it's nice to have some mystery before the game launches. Wish I could participate.

Weren't they all revealed? Or what did I miss?

That topic was sort of a Pandora's Box around here for a time.

A bit late but all the same, not even a Switch.

I think Syl's past and her wishes will become important at some point, but that will probably end with her living with Kaladin. The fact that we don't fully know her motivations yet doesn't mean she's useless for the plot and therefore should be thrown away. On the contrary, it most likely means we should be paying attention to her and the things she will do in the future. Quoting a completely unrelated story, I think "If you die today, I could die tomorrow" could describe their relationship to some degree now, it seems to be how Radiantship works.

That actually sounds as if Dalinar's mind will degenerate with time, but so far nothing has suggested that. If anything, he's learning the qualities of a good leader, what you say implies he will fail at that in the end, as he would have big trust issues. But a good leader knows how much responsibility they should keep and how much they should give away. Yes, I think it's very possible he becomes a surgeon in the end, I also think it's very possible he stays a soldier the rest of his life, I wouldn't even find it strange if he managed to balance both, but in either of those three cases, I don't see any reason for Syl to leave. Sure, in one of those he's not fighting, but it's been made clear several times that spren are not there only to fight, they're simply attracted to people with their ideals. Remember Ym? He didn't live enough to swear the oaths, but he was already living by the ideals without even getting close to a battlefield. At this point, I don't even know what purpose that would serve. RAFO indeed.

Random thought. Rhythm of War would be a good name for a Crypt of the NecroDancer spin off.

This sounded interesting at first, but now you're just describing these characters as completely different from who they really are. Dalinar as some sort of extreme perfectionist who thinks he can rule a country with only him as staff (what?) And Kaladin as some sort of tragic-ending hero who for some reason would stop protecting people under a my-job-here-is-done logic. If he was even capable of doing that, he would have done so long ago. There was a time when Kaladin thought his helping people only hurt them, and even then he kept doing it, because he just can't see someone in trouble and not react. Now he's been proven multiple times that he can make a difference by helping people, why would he ever stop now? Besides, there's been a lot of tragedy in Kaladin's life and there's surely more to come. Do you really want his arc to end in tragedy to top things off?

So everything on schedule, weekly chapters confirmed, Rysn novella, things are looking awesome!

You can have pocket mains? Finally an excuse to list half the roster when people ask which characters you like.
