Sad to learn the demon expansion mod for SMT VV, which was probably just porting existing demons from Dx2 or elswhere, is resorting to using ai-generated models.
I know the mod was more quantity over quality, considering how many demons and characters it adds, but man, it's disappointing to see.

I know these days DLC for games is content that was meant for the base game that got stripped out to be sold separately and that's been normalised at this point so barely anyone gives a shit.
Legends ZA is one of the more obvious cases of that since it hasn't even been a month.

Just adding that there is now a version that is by the actual devs of the extension, so it's likely to have better bug fixes/support.

Oh shit I didn't know we were getting one of those Anti-Directs today. Damn, missing out on knowing what games will get shit physical releases.

Yesterday I downloaded the current version of DVPet just to mess around with it again. Making a thread to journal what Digimon I end up raising and how that turns out.
You can adjust the clock speeds at any time, but for now I'm going to keep it to real time to see how things go.

Time Stranger's postgame boss was real tough but fun.
Managed to beat it on a second attempt even though I was "underleveled" that my entire party jumped up by 10-20 levels lol.
Only thing I got left to do is collect cards but hesistant on whether to save it for a NG+ run or not.

I've tried watching different people play Legends ZA to get a better idea of what it's like.
Problem is I kinda don't care enough to look any further than the first few hours. Doesn't help that I've been hearing the game takes way too long until it releases you from tutorial hell.

There's a fanmade digimon virtual pet game called DVPet that I've messed around with before which you could get from an old forum post about it or off a fucking fandom wiki page.
Only recently found out the dev actually put it up on itch and the versions hosted elsewhere are very outdated.

Beat Time Stranger. It's pretty good overall.
Despite being higher budget, it's still obvious how much this game went through some development limbo and was meant to originall release on last gen system.
Felt mixed on the story at first, but once you get to the Digital World and it gets better.

Nearing the end of Time Stranger but the game has thrown like a ton of sidequests that just opened up. I try to finish one but then another opens up right after..
Shit.

If you've updated to Windows 11 recently, you're probably on version 25H2.
There's a new setting in Settings: Privacy & Security.
Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation."
TURN IT OFF.

Apologies for ranting about pokemon, but..
I'm more or less expecting ZA to be similar to Arceus in that people will glaze the fuck out of it because it's doing something "new" but then it turns out the new thing makes the game into a really shallow or boring experience.

On the one hand, I love Arukenimon and would love to keep her for the rest of my playthrough of Time Stranger.
On the other hand, she can evolve into Lilithmon, who is also hot.
..Maybe I should train another digimon so I can have both despite already being pretty far in.

You know that one episode of Doctor Who where bat aliens take control of an entire school so they could turn kids into computers to crack some code to let them manipulate time and space..
Do you think if it was made today, they would've made it so they were using the kids' brains to mine Bitcoin?

Spent a year or so playing Pokemon Pinball R&S one and off. Finallt completed the main pokedex outside of the e-reader stuff. It took so long since Latias was the last one I needed.
Just need to figure out how to get the e-reader pokes on my save file, then I can get true 100%..
