@SomeEgrets oh yeah!
it used to be a custom instance thing where you had to put data into your header formatted in a specific way
i think a lot of people liked the idea, so it turned into a separate free-form table upstream
either way, it was a really welcome addition!
@noiob aaand oops, i'm totally acting like an ad right now (sorry!)
it's outright my favorite game series though--they have such good vibes!
@noiob yeah! quite a few more, actually!
explorers of sky is probably the longest of the bunch, because it has like 20 hours of post-game added to it that goes into detail of the back-stories of characters

gates was the first game on 3ds, and has an animal-crossing like building mechanic

and super has the largest scope, and the most polished gameplay, shaking up a lot of things (it's also harder)

@noiob oh! a lot has happened since then! three sets of games, in fact
the easiest ones to find right now are probably "gates to infinity" and "super mystery dungeon"
gates is the earlier of the two, and has a really satisfying story
also super mystery dungeon has the continents of all the previous games as places you can visit, and makes quite a few references to previous games (nothing story-significant though)
of the DS games, "explorers of sky" has everything the others do, and tons more
@noiob aaahh! they're so good!
i love these games so much!
@Kistaro yep! it's still going strong here too
it's interesting to see how far i can push my resources without leaving the apartment though
i wanted to draw a location in pokemon super mystery dungeon, and was going to use the actual game as a reference
so i started it up and discovered i was at a story segment completely isolated from the place i wanted to look at
this is an extremely good excuse to play some mystery dungeon, and i'm definitely taking it!
self-aware double standards
i think my biggest fear is not being worth the mental energy of others
but that's not something i try to solicit to begin with--except in a few cases where i've convinced myself that it's absolutely worth it
i mean, it does make my twitter extremely browsable, but it also feels like i'm basically treating myself like a brand, which is ahahaha not good
that's less true here--which is freeing! but there are still a few places where i've decided i'm likely not welcome
self-aware double standards
*sees one of those positive messages directed at everyone*
my brain: oh yeah! this really does apply to everyone... except for me, of course!
hee, nice try, brain
maybe my resolution for next year should be to get out there as much as possible to counteract my self-exclusionary thoughts?
getting anxious over nothing is the last thing i need, and i think getting some proof that it's all unfounded might be just what i need
Infinity War spoilers
@KommaChameleon i totally didn't expect it either
i'm glad they went through with it though, because a deus ex machina would have felt so cheap after all of that
i wonder what this means for future marvel things though?
@99CentSoftness if they barked behind each other, at least there would be a chance for tail call optimization
@99CentSoftness oh no! a yak overflow
@sugar hi dos..!
@Zhorken same, honestly
i like how low commitment things are here though! especially if you're just talking to someone on the local timeline
i find because of that, i actually say a lot more here than i do on the tweeters
i only started recording the data because the values embedded on google don't show up anywhere on the source page, so I kinda gotta keep track of it myself
i love how I can basically just hack something like this out in tasker when i need to, though! (maybe i should use it more often?)
oh hi! i do computers, and sometimes draw stuff~ i like lo-fi things and cute aesthetics!
i also probably like you
