  • Do you mean Scarlet and Violet? I largely agree, but the Blueberry Academy DLC was pretty good. It is set in Unova with a lot of Gen V pokemon added and references to those games.

    In general, I’d say that the SV main game is one of the worse ones, but the post-game is among the best.

    Gen 5 is still the best though.

    This is incredibly true.

    Most of my family just does really dumb stuff with stuffing. Celery? Fucking gross, get that slimy wood out of my food. Putting it in the turkey? Far too soggy. I understand some people want to call it “dressing” instead of “stuffing” if it’s not “stuffed” into the bird, but I don’t care. If you want to get pedantic I’ll just say dressing > stuffing.

    The worst is overseasoned stuffing. Under-sessoned stuffing can be saved by gravy. But I’ve had stuffing that’s way too salty, or just completely overwhelmed with black pepper.

    The boxes stuff? Perfectly acceptable every time. A variety of flavors: traditional is great, but don’t be sleeping on cornbread either.

    I’ve had some pretty good stuffing in restaurants. And I suspect it comes straight from the same factory as the boxed stuff too. I’m sure I could make a slightly better stuffing myself from scratch, but not significantly better enough to merit the increased cost, time, and kitchen resources.



  • This is a port. Ty 4 originally was a Windows game from 2015.

    The whole context is pretty interesting. The studio was one of the few in Australia and Ty was arguably the first Australian videogame IP. The games were always low budget and the studio took on a lot of cheap licensed games in order to keep the lights on.

    Like a lot of 3D platformers from the time, they let another studio make quick, cheap, 2D versions for the GBA. By 2015 Krome was really struggling. Ty 3 flopped and Microsoft pumping publishing money into games for the Microsoft Store, and so the studio cranked this out.

    From a technical perspective this probably could’ve been a launch title for the Switch. I’m guessing there were some business or legal issues why it took so long (this release is also riding the coattails of the remasters of Ty 1&2, as part of the larger industry trend of 3D platformers coming back).
