I've been getting into a website called Retro Achievements and honestly I think this is probably more my style than speedrunning games. I like doing cool stuff in games, but I have huge commitment issues lol.
I think every Sunday I'll stream towards completing games. Anyone else use this website?

It's hard to say which I'd rate higher over the other. Prime 1 is just so solid and these games take 1/2 of what makes Prime 1 so good, and just butchers the other part. Didn't care for the Wiimote controls too. Excited for Prime 4 though to see how well it stacks up to Prime 1!

#19: Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. It's funny that this game is just the other side of the same coin as Prime 2 to me. Prime 2 had horrible boss fights but a pretty fun world to explore, and Prime 3 had amazing boss fights but wasn't a fan of sectioned off zones to run around in.

Sorry for all the posts but man I am floored that the Trails vid was able to hit 1k views. It didn't randomly get views inflated over 3 days like my other vid, so seeing pretty steady growth on it feels really good.
It also feels amazing that 95% of people like the vid! Can't wait to make more :)

It was already hard to stack up to how good Prime 1 was, with the Switch Remaster of Prime 1 Prime 2/3 feel so bad to play with the terrible control scheme. The Ing are cool antagonists and I liked exploring, but bosses felt like the developers wanted to see how unfun they could make them.

#18: #MetroidPrime2Echoes I've been wanting to paly through the Prime Series to prep for Prime 4. Played it on the Metroid Prime Trilogy so it used the Wiimote controls, and damn if Prime hasn't always been plagued by shitty controls (Outside of the MP Switch Remaster) but the game itself is mid...

I do think it's really cool how much info and stats YouTube gets you when you publish a video. I always get an extreme amount of anxiety posting stuff but seeing the little view graph shoot up is really fun. At midnight after 4 days there were 150 views and now it's at ~400, just crazy lol.

Last post, fun and required out of the box thinking for some stuff but I'll never do this again for Johto lmao. Probably about 50 hours was spent grinding on level 30-35 Pokemon in Victory Road, Fishing, or South of Pallet Town for Pokemon. Couldn't get to Mt. Silver till 16 badges lol.

I thought it'd be fun for Red, since his team is based off of Ash's team in Pokemon Yellow, to use a team that's very Gary inspired. This is the final team I had, the AI wasn't the smartest so we were able to take him down. Ninetails, Heracross, Jolteon, Gyarados(LoR ofc), Eggsecutor, Pidgeot

Kanto was extremely hard because wild pokemon levels don't scale up, so I had to painstakingly grind each pokemon from level ~20 to ~40 (3 pokemon max & at least 1 Johto pokemon per gym). Magcargo actually solod Blaine and surprisingly Brock was the hardest leader (though he has surf on 2 pokemon..)

Type Pokemon you can get to fight Pryce (Which is only available Friday nights), and learning that NPCs have only a 75% to hit with stat reducing moves (Only way I was able to beat Claire was with a Seadra with Smokescreen and not having that base reduction. Elite 4 I used 1 Pokemon from each gym

#17 #PokemonSilver Been a while and I have a lot of games to catch up on. For this replay I actually did a "Gym Leader Rival" challenge which was using the same type as the Gym I'm fighting in. A lot of weird janky things like being unable to buy evolution stones in Johto, Lapras is the only Ice-

What a motherfucking JOURNEY it has been. After starting Trails in the Sky in Jan 2024, a year and a half later I am caught up in English and waiting for Beyond the Horizon to release. It was literally delayed today which is funny, but man. Trails has so much meat to it and theres so much to enjoy.

#16 Clair Obscur: #expedition33: Phenomenal game, deserves all the hype it's gotten. If you like the combat of Mario RPGs then you should definitely play this. A tiny bit of issues in that some characters don't get a lot of backstory behind them, but it's gonna be hard to top this as GOTY.
