With the constant and decimating layoffs, we should probably have a meme of Nadella as Thanos by now

So if I did it right, my showcase should be cards I have up for trade. That way friends can see if there is a card they want

Anyone know how long the final episode in the Ace Attorney Investigations 2 is? Just finished episode 4 and the kid is getting worn out by how long these can be

Good article with good points. One thing I would add is the conclusion is also why having correct grammar foundation is so important.

It serves as a springboard to catch up much faster. When you know how a language actually works, you save so many hours

Phew!

So after a lot of work, among the everyday kanji list, I have identified that there are around 280 Onyomi and 900 Kunyomi that need to be memorized.

This project is gonna take a long time...

Something I am happy about studying to N2 level is that I can enjoy more content. Even if a game does not have furigana, being able to figure out words or at least be able to look up many of them is really rewarding.

Now to get the other 1000 kanji

Man... This year is really just bad news from Sony. My last point of confidence in their products is getting smashed.

(This really only affects Japan as the only place with the app afaik, but it was a very handy app and allowed remote viewing of your recorded content and scheduling)

Looks like the new Professor Layton game is not using gen AI after all? That's good

Probably impressed. Great wife and kids and checked off some goals.

There's that quote about being happy being that I don't think about "what if"s because I am happy with what I have
Would 20 y/o you be impressed or disappointed by you today?

I appreciate my wife. She's awesome

Game design idea:
Leave the handholding and characters telling the answer to Story Mode, the difficultly level specifically tailored to just enjoying the story.

I want to work on some game ideas but still torn whether I should do in Godot or Unity.

Still angry with Unity for that stunt they did
However, Godot is harder if want to get a job with gaming

Something I am noticing about Echoes of Wisdom is people seem to enjoy the ending better if they do not fully upgrade.

Completed Paper Mario: The Origami King! I found this one to be absolutely charming! While not the 'return to form' that some Paper Mario fans wanted, Origami King has so much whimsy and heart in it. Olivia absolutely rocks it as Mario's helper here too. It gets a big recommendation from me!

Idk of there are actually people who believe the new Kirby game is secretly Smash bros. However, did you know Smash Bros. were secretly Kirby games?

Kirby has the most development work.
Kirby is the primary playable character in story modes
Created by the guy who made Kirby
Aim for accessibility
Kirby Flying in Super Smash Bros

Prepping some Japanese stroke order videos. If any moots want to preview them, let me know.

So Bloomberg does a better job explaining than Sony? I guess that shows Sony was trying to be respectful to Kojima by not "blaming" him publicly.
It also explains one confusion I had bc I recall it had not really started development.

I was listening to a developer interview and now my brain wants to make 2 different mega man battle network inspired games going in different directions.
