For no specific reason at all, which one of the Coven is most likely to Be Bunny 👀
We have messed with different July forms before since she's not as attached to hers but I think Trinket would most enjoy being Bnuuny.
Do you like Zelda? If so, which was you favorite? Which was your first?
Love most Zeldas at this point. We even had fun with Breath and Tears though haven't had much desire to go back to them yet. Our first was definitely one of the first three games but to choose one specifically is impossible since we were too young, but we definitely played a ton of LttP back in the day and still love it. At this point, we mostly just want to do randomizer runs rather than the vanilla game, being super familiar with it.
Favorite is also super tough to choose. Probably LttP? It's fast and familiar and we've been through it a bunch of times. But the original is very close. Shoutouts to Minish Cap and OoT and Link Between Worlds. LBW really could have been a dud too and instead we loved it. Heck yeah
Alright, what's YOUR games that you dislike solely because of the fanbase?
Many many cases. If anyone annoys us we tend to hold grudges and people annoy us easily. So One Shot, Pseudoregalia, Silent Hill, Pathologic. To be fair I'm looking at a list we had and have forgotten why we were mad at say, Promise Mascot Agency. Uuuuuh Suda 51 stuff is borderline.
Any kind of case where the fanbase is super horny or super aggressive and or can only express their liking something by shitting on some unrelated popular thing (I think Undertale usually gets the target on these but its the shitty attitude more than the actual Undertale)
it was the gamecube's anniversary really recently. What are some of your favorite gamecube games?
We actually were just talking to a friend who is playing Chibi Robo for the first time yesterday and that's up there. Viewtiful Joe also; that one is technically multi-platform but it's Gamecube to us and we beat it like 16 times or something. Wind Waker is a beautiful game, of course, and Luigi's Mansion is neat. Path of Radiance is our favorite Fire Emblem and really an all-timer. We wanna try some more Mario Sunshine too. Oh, Animal Crossing was a huge deal and introduced us to some older Nintendo games! But of course, any Nintendo game is a pretty straightforward mention.
Even though it's not the really good Kinnikuman game, the Ultimate Muscle on there is special to us, oh and its a good console to play a lot of our favorite Sonic era. Premiere platform for Shadow the Hedgehog (2005). Gotcha Force is an old favorite, even if it'd be hard to restart a file of it at this point. I'm sure we'll keep thinking of more over the next while but these are some fantastic and beloved games that came to mind first.
What's the last not-retro-styled new game you played that you really liked?
In terms of when we played it, Blue Prince. In terms of release date, Kirby Air Riders. This is applying a pretty high ceiling for "really liked" rather than allowing in anything we think is just average.
What kind of venom would those fangs of yours produce, Viper?
An immobilizing venom that leaves one nice and relaxes for, let's say, hugs.
Thoughts on adventure games? Preference for Sierra, LucasArts, Other styles?
You know this is a good question. Grim Fandango is an all-timer and one of our faves ever but we already kinda know all the solutions so we don't get stuck. At the same time, being able to be stuck and wander around does so much for your connection to the space. We like other ones but aren't THAT into Lucasarts games as a whole, and we actually want to try and get more into some old Sierra games just to kinda try that out. Something more like Ace Attorney, those detective games, where its more of an interactive story, are probably easier for us to get into now, with 'puzzle' games these days kinda being things like Blue Prince and Galley House and such. I suppose we have been considering making one of our own so maybe we'll come into our own answers on things. Anyway Full Throttle also kicks ass
What kind of wheels are you thinking of doing next?
We had a few ideas: the "really late NES release" wheel, the "Revenge" wheel where we make a more serious attempt to beat some games we've touched before. And we might do some horrible licensed games / western exclusives for another console because that was so much fun. Beethoven was so cool
Atari Jaguar game most deserving of a CD-i port?
Trevor McFur so we could get fantastic full FMV cutscenes of Trevor talking to General Patent or whatever the lion's name was
Thoughts on ActRaiser 2?
We're angling to learn and get into it. As an action game its pretty weird and interesting and has odd tech. It's one of those things where they really killed the golden goose with it, but Actraiser 1 as an action game would have been pretty forgotten without the city builder whereas A2 does have fans. Someday.
