WoW Times 8

Image
              Hello! I started this to just organize my thoughts on cross faction play better because, like usual, I don’t think I had communicated it well enough. I’m sure most people would understand what I want but I do see people online make some stupid claims and I don’t know if they’re being serious or just trolling but that’s how this started. I then was gonna bring up the one-button rotation thing a bit but then it just kind of snowballed so yeah, another WoW post but it’s mostly UI related. Things I personally would like changed or can’t believe hasn’t been integrated yet and then some random, personal character bullshit. Are you excited ???             When I say “cross faction play,” I’m not saying I want to be able to stroll through Iron Forge on my Tauren and pick up baby quest in Alliance towns or go quest through Zandalar on a Night Elf. No no no. When I s...

World of ChillCraft

Image
                 Hello. It’s me. AztecSauce. So I haven’t opened b.net in a long while but I’ve been bored so I opened it to see what was going on. I was immediately greeted with something for Hearthstone about the Lost City of Un’goro or something. The artwork looked cool, there was the Night Elf archeologist girl showing midriff, bein’ hot, so I was like “eh, I’ll take a look at this.” I install it, get in there, bombarded with a bunch of shit that I don’t understand, get rid of all that and start looking around. How do I play this game? I’m looking for this Un’goro thing, not finding it because you know, it’s a mobile game and all mobile game UIs are garbage. I think I found it but it looks like some kind of battle pass thing where you get points for playing and doing “quests” and stuff. Not really what I was looking for., but it made me think of WoW but like, I want a different kind of WoW. Maybe a more chill WoW. It’s kind of the...

Expedition Pokemon

Image
  Hello! So after my last post I started thinking and when I really look at Expedition 33, it very much acts like an old school Pokemon game. It probably acts like a lot of JRPGs but I can’t say I’ve played many so my only real reference is Pokemon. So, along with my previous posts on my ideal Pokemon game ( post 1 , post 2 ) I think this is the definitive, personal dream game I would love to see in the future. TL;DR in last paragraph.             While envisioning a Pokemon game that behaves more like Expedition 33 I was finding that E33 behaves more like a Pokemon game then I would’ve guessed. You have an overworld with various portals to other zones and those zones are separate from the main overworld. So I’m imagining Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green looking like Expedition 33. The final product doesn’t have to be as good looking as E33 but Game Freak did release a trailer for a game that looks like it runs a lot better than ...

My Ideal Pokemon Game 2

Image
  Hello? H-how are you? I’m gonna talk about shit I’ve already talked about before if that’s okay :3 Don’t hate me >< Okay enough of that.             SO! Been playing Hyrule Warriors DE and damn does that run good on the Switch 2! It’s absurd how much content that game has. But when I’m on the adventure map, looking at the tiles, being told “Requires Search” and having to figure out which item card to use and where just made me think “Man, I really want a good Pokemon game.” I’m getting a clearer image of what I want, what I’d like, if only I can convey it clearly. I’ve probably mentioned most of this in other posts but I’m gonna say it again and hopefully this will be the last time and I can just point to this post if anything comes up in the future. So thusly, I’m not too interested in Pokemon Legends ZA. It just looks like more battling and I’m very much over that. Recently Game Freak released a trailer for a diffe...

Power Rangers VS Street Fighter and/or Power Warriors/Musou

Image
  Hello! Like my Monster Hunter fighter idea I thought I should maybe talk about fighters I’d like to see in my hypothetical Power Rangers VS Street Fighter game but I don’t really know many Power Ranger squads. I don’t know when it was, a couple years ago at this point? I started watching Dino Fury on Netflix on the weekend mornings and thought “Hey, maybe I’ll start from the beginning and watch ALL the Power Rangers, then maybe even the Super Sentai shows too!” Well I haven’t gotten very far. I was watching Mighty Morphin but my god it is SO LONG. At some point I finally got to Zeo, more of the same, meh, then I got into Turbo and I was like “Okay, finally, new people, new setting, maybe this will be better” but it’s still the same fucking people! God damn. Within the last couple weeks I was looking online for the “good” Power Ranger shows and one person said they liked Turbo after the “power transfer” so I skipped some episodes and got to the new Rangers and it is better. The be...

Not E3 2025

Image
                 Hello! It’s been a while but some things have happened! The Switch 2 came out, the not E3 season is… existing, so we can talk a little about that stuff.             Mario Kart World is interesting. The courses being connected are kind of neat but I don’t think it needs to be in everything. I kind of feel like it’s fine for the Grand Prix cups because it’s the gimmick of the game and I feel like once people get gold in all the cups they move on and obviously it’s the big part of Knockout Tour. I think Knockout Tour is a really good addition; it’s just a nice, solid, competitive mode. The place I don’t enjoy the connecting tracks is in VS mode, especially when I pick “random” tracks. Even if you pick random, it will randomly select the first track but after that it will connect to the closest tracks. In Mario Kart 8, VS was my go to for quick fun. I have a family thi...

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

Image
              Hello hello. I’ve been playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and I quite like it a lot. I’ve just finished the main story so now I’m just going around and checking out the rest of the world. I don’t have a lot to say that hasn’t already been said by others but I was gonna reiterate anyway but I’ll start with my own personal journey of how I found out about the game.             For one thing it was all over PC Gamer magazine for months. I don’t know how issues I got that had it on the back cover. But the first time I saw it was during an Xbox direct of all things. Very rarely do I see anything in these directs, aside from Nintendo, that really catch my attention but E33 did. I don’t know if I can call this an indie game but with most indie games it’s like they reach into a hat with different game mechanics and genres, pull out three or four and are like “We’re...
