Yeah, most probably means nothing. Trademarks were probably expiring so they renewed.

We may still get those games as remasters or remakes though, but this doesn't have anything to do with that, they will protect all their trademarks.

Ah, okay. I left reddit at the same time, during the great exodus. These days only open the site if it comes up during search for some info. It has tons of info from all those users using it for couple of decades.

ApollosArrow has mentioned it in this week's thread, you can check with him if you have any questions.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 1 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

Heh, it's my first time hearing the term, that's a funny name.

I agree, Cosmic, our mod, had the same issue in his other community. I would prefer not to ban anyone though, so hopefully this will solve the problem and it won't come to that.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 3 points 18 hours ago (3 children)

Didn't know reddit was banning people, what happened?

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago

Yeah, lemmy users used to be really considerate, so it's sad to see it is starting to get plagued by the same issue as other social networks have.

Still enjoyable? Roughly how long is it?

The sequel is coming out this year, so have been thinking about playing it soon.

No, there was a death in the family, so didn't get much time over this weekend. Hopefully sometimes during the week or next weekend.

I probably won't play that much, so don't think we will actually see each other, but who knows 😀

 

We have added a new rule to the community:

Rule # 1: Stay on Topic

The purpose of this community has always been to share news and have discussions about everything related to Nintendo, some of these can be good, some of these can be bad. If you want to gush over the new Mario, you are welcome to do so, if you want to criticise Nintendo for their various lawsuits, you are also welcome to do so, as they are all on topic discussions.

What is not on-topic is posting "Fuck Nintendo" and it's variations on random posts. We have generally ignored these before, as we don't want to stop anyone from sharing their sentiments, but this has started to increase the toxicity in the posts, for those who do enjoy Nintendo games and the community. You can still disagree, or even hate Nintendo, but your comment must be related to the post. If you just want to discuss general issues with Nintendo, you are welcome to create a post detailing it's failures, as long as it doesn't break any other rules.

So, in short, comments like the following are fine:

"Man, I hate Nintendo, why can't they give the game upgrades for free like PlayStation?"

But comments like the ones below are off-topic and will be removed:

"Fuck Nintendo"

Or

"I hope this flops"


Please report any off-topic posts you find, so that mods can take a look and remove them.

Thanks

P.S: Since this rule has been added on top, as #1, all other rule numbers have increased by 1, so previous #1 has become #2, and #2 has become #3 and so on.

 

Playing Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition. Not much new here, doing some side content while waiting for FrontNav minerals to give me what I need. Did some side quests, also finally found the dog, so was able to do tons of heart-to-heart.

Finally got the required mineral last night and went to start Chapter 7, when I realised I haven't surveyed Oblivia enough! facepalm I remember checking it before and was sure I meet the required number, so I either it read the requriement wrong or my survey percentage wrong.

Anyways, with Skell, it shouldn't take too long to do it. Also, got all my characters to level 30, so can buy Skells for them. Haven't done that yet though, will do it soon.

The Surge time was pretty productive, completed the third area, and got some good upgrades, then went back to second area (that's how the game flows), and now am stuck at the boss.

I am bit confused about this boss. It has two phases, I have gotten down first one now, can do it without losing much health, or sometimes, any health. The second phase has 4 robo-arms on the side walls, which keep attacking you when you are attacking the mail pillar / boss. You can destroy those 4 arms, but if kill the boss without destroying the arms, you get a very good weapon.

So, that's where I am stuck, I want to kill the boss without destroying those arms, to get that weapons, but I am not sure if I am good enough to keep track of 5 different things and attack the boss while dodging them. Going to try a few more times, if it didn't work out, will just destroy the arms.

Also got Street Fighter 6

I am more of a casual fighting game player, but still enjoy them every now and then, with a soft spot for Street Fighter and Soulcalibur games. So, just got it to play few rounds every now and then. Thinking about seeing if I can get anywhere in ranked, but not too concerned about it.

Ilandar mentioned PlanetSide 2 last week, and after looking it up, I wanted to give it a try. Plan to check it out over the weekend. I am not much of a MMO fan, so not sure how much I will actually play, but want to take a look.

What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?

 

Release date TBA

 

Finished chapter 6 of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition!

Also got a skell! Going to see if I can buy more skells right now or just buy some weapons for it.

I have one big complaint though, about the map and enemy placements in this game. For instance, a quest with recommended level 20, has level 30 or above enemies in the main path, and it isn't easy to go around them.

Similarly, there was a level 5 quest in the start, where you had to get communication device of someone, and it was right beside level 35 monsters, and I couldn't get to it without entering combat with them.

It's one thing when it's a normal quest, like the level 5 one, but that level 20 one was an affinity quest, which means I can't progress without doing it either, and there is apparently no way to abandon it once accepted.

Maybe I am just not doing something right.

Played a bit of The Surge too. Couldn't get very far in the third area, the Biolabs something. So, looked up some info and apparently I was using the weapons wrong. I was ignoring the damage type of the weapons since the game never mentioned anything about them anywhere, but apparently my weapon is pretty much useless against armour, switched to another weapon (also learned you can select multiple weapons and switch between them with one button!) which had damage for armour, and even though it's overall power was much less, I was killing enemies so much faster! Only issue is that this weapon is staff, where I am more comfortable with one-handed weapons, and can't find a good one-handed one that deals damage to armour.

Still, haven't gotten much further because of annoying Robo dogs, died to them a few times. Will try again.

What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?
