stop trying to find someone who likes what you like and hates what you hate. try to find someone who you enjoy anyway and treats you well.

Sometimes it’s better to have different tastes. My ex and I liked the opposite flavors of gummy bears. It was so convenient. lol

[–] Wrongdoer4094 14 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

Your ex you said? #joking

[–] disguy_ovahea 9 points 5 days ago

Yeah, but the end wasn’t gummy bear related. lol

Sometimes the universe has other plans.

I say this as someone who never stopped looking until I found a gaming buddy in a partner. When every night is a date, lan party, and sleepover all at once... I certainly can't tell you what's important to you, just never settle.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 days ago

To a point yes but having nothing in common is tiring really.

My brother and I split the SNES when it came out (presumably with money our parents gave us because we were just kids), but he got gifted Super Mario RPG. And he held that shit over my head, and we didn't get a long, and he never let me play, and so it kinda solidified itself as my favorite game of all time, because it had this forbidden nature for me.

Putting all that aside, it was just a well made game, great pacing, great mechanics. I got the Switch version and I'm hoping to get my kids into it, but it's hard to compete with the looks of modern games, especially since my kids are young.

ok but where's super metroid?

[–] [email protected] 27 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Love seeing Terranigma here. Such a great hidden gem. If you're a fan of Secret of Evermore or Illusion of Gaia, check it out.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago (6 children)

Have I got this straight in my head:

Illusion of Gaia was the second in a trilogy: Soul Blazer, Illusion of Gaia and a third one that wasn't released in North America. And was that third one Terranigma or a different game?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 days ago

It was Terranigma.

I love this game so much, can beat it on a single life. Really looking forward to the new Rita’s Rewind game.

Until the other person pronounces it sness instead of s.n.e.s.

[–] Gradually_Adjusting 22 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Okay wow rude. How I say it is my bizsness

You've made an enemy today. We could have been friends.

Mega man X soundtrack lives rent free in my head, along with the first scene that crushed me as a child.

I don't see a problem here, I've played all those games and every single one is a gem

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver 3 points 4 days ago

They have awesome games to show each other!

[–] [email protected] 18 points 5 days ago (5 children)

They're both correct.

Hook up the old super nintendo and start asking questions like "Hey did you ever play Lufia?"

So they meet in the middle at Actraiser?

[–] Hellnikko 6 points 5 days ago

I have not heard that name in a long time. .... Long time.

I still whistle the music every so often.

I'm about to commit blasphemy:

Y'all can keep the Castlevania. I'll take the rest.

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver 11 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Simon is on his way to your castle as we speak.

[–] ChronosTriggerWarning 6 points 5 days ago

Sorry Simon, but the princess is in another castle.

Aria's the best one, anyway

Suddenly surrounded by spears, pitchforks and one torch

I mean uh, um,... "What is a man!?"

More like “we” love awesome video game music.

I've never even heard of Terraniema (? Kinda hard to read that font).

Is it any good?

[–] brandon 8 points 5 days ago

It’s Terranigma, it never got a North America release so not well known there. I’ve never played it but I hear it’s pretty good.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago (4 children)

It's considered to be the best game in Quintet's non-god-game trilogy (Soulblazer And Illusion of Time/Gaia being the other t'o games).
