I would have posted this in the "Microsoft To Acquire Activision Blizzard" thread but since I posted there such a long time ago it would probably count as necroposting, so I'll make the announcement here-good news for Spyro fans like me-after Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard, Toys For Bob, who currently owns the rights to Spyro, has broken away from Activision and is now an independent developer. This means more Spyro and Crash games in the future probably. And of course I'm glad Activision now no longer has its greedy hands on the Spyro franchise and won't be getting any more profits from it because most of us probably know how chauvenistic and disgusting the work environment was and how badly and unfairly the female employees were treated over at Activision back when Bobby Kotick was still in charge of it so-yeah. I'm happy about all this for MORE than one reason. Like-I feel so bad for the female employees at Activision. The way they were treated was not right. They were treated so unfairly and they were abused and that is NOT ok with me. I'm one of those guys who respects women, and I want them to be treated right and given the respect they deserve. So yeah. Because of all that being done, I don't think Activision deserves to profit from Spyro. So I'm glad they no longer own him.
I use Opera internet browser. Most of the time it works really well, but when it occasionally crashes, it's really annoying. It usually works well though overall, and I'm NEVER going back to using Google Chrome. Google is evil (I'm not lying-look at the history of all the bad and nefarious things they have done including tax evasion, manipulating search results and getting to be a monopoly in the search engine industry by illegal means) and it steals people's data and spies on them all the time. No thanks.
You know what's sad? Before I joined this forum, I created an account on the Spyro Forums, because I also really like Spyro. I don't know why this happened, but I waited for over a month and never got the email to activate my account on there. I still haven't got that activation email.
A little while ago in Minecraft I made a boat and sailed all the way across the island to see what was beyond. I died, and so lost the boat, but I plan to get into the water and try to swim back to where I landed the boat and get it back, then explore the rest of the world I created.
My tier list of the enemies I hate the MOST in Minecraft now that I've been playing it for a little bit LOL. These enemies are so freaking annoying.....I wish they didn't spawn at night. Like, I'm not that angry at them-but I do hate them. They greatly irritate me. LOL also each enemy I put down here will have an emoji depicting how angry it makes me. First second and third worst enemies will each have a trophy as well-gold for #1 most hated enemy, silver for #2 most hated enemy, and bronze for #3 most hated enemy.
1. Skeletons. They chase me and they shoot me with their arrows over and over again. Argh! I can't stand them.
2. Spiders. Everyone who knows me in real life knows I HATE spiders (they have SCARY looking faces!) and I hate them in this game, too. They're harder to kill than both zombies and skeletons combined. They seem to really hurt me, too, when they attack me. And they're really fast.
3. Zombies. They take so many hits to kill and if a horde of them advances on me I'm basically done for.
4. Creepers. They follow me around annoyingly and explode when I accidentally walk right in front of them. And if they explode next to me, they kill me.
5. The "Guardians" in the sea areas of the map. Even when they are not hunting me and I'm not even in the water at all, they still do that rip current attack thing with their mouths continually. It is so loud and when I'm near the water I can hear them doing it over and over again. I find the noise incredibly irritating.
So yeah, relatedly (did I use that term right?), I HATE all of the annoying enemies in Minecraft, so killing them understandably makes me very happy. Also may I add that the most irritating thing ever in Minecraft is when I'm trying to chop down trees to build my house, and zombies and skeletons and other enemies attack me while I'm doing that and gang up on me so they kill me and I have to respawn and have to literally walk all the way back to where the tree was I was cutting down? Ugh......
Anyway yeah LOL. I hate these enemies so much in Minecraft. What are some of your Minecraft enemies you hate the most? Can anyone relate to all of this?
Not like anyone asked but as far as my personal feelings toward Nintendo...I like them in some ways and dislike them in other ways. I don't completely like everything about them because not everything about them is good, and I don't completely hate them either because not everything about them is bad-I both like them and dislike them-in different ways. I like the things about them that are good and dislike the things about them that are bad. I like the awesome franchises they have that I am a fan of and how creative and cool they usually are and like how good their games are but I don't like how they crack down on emulation and fangames. I like how they usually put a lot of hard work and good quality into most of their games and they turn out good most of the time and any flaws they have are small, but dislike how they make you often pay for remastered versions of the same game over and over again. However despite my mixed feelings about all that, I overall really am attached personally to Nintendo because they were part of my childhood, and if they went out of business, I would be very sad, as I would have no more (new) Nintendo games to play. So yeah. I like Nintendo-meaning I like the good things about them-but I also dislike the things about them that are bad and so dislike Nintendo in those ways. My feelings are mixed. So I guess you could say I both like AND dislike them. Personally as far as what I dislike most about them, I've always been angry about the cracking down on emulation and fangames. Like-I recently found out (I was never expecting this was so) that fan games, if people want to play them instead of actual games from the companies themselves, actually take money AWAY from the companies-but-like-why does it matter; Nintendo is the RICHEST company in Japan and already has plenty of freaking money. And besides that, like, Sega for instance is nicer about this to its fans than Nintendo is even though they probably KNOW they might lose some money because of these fangames, but they don't care; they love their fanbase and like seeing them ambitiously create fangames to express their love for Sonic-they're not greedy for profits, even though compared to Nintendo they're second rate because Sonic doesn't sell as much games as Nintendo and Sega overall doesn't make nearly as much money. So Nintendo is greedy-just like almost every single other company out there. So yeah, long story short-I like Nintendo-as far as the games it puts out and its franchises and the creativity that often goes into those games and how fun those games are to play-but I really do not agree with or care for the inner workings or politics of Nintendo. I like Nintendo-but I don't like EVERYTHING about them. In fact, the things I dislike about them I dislike A LOT. And for good reason.
I recently finished watching a complete playthrough of Super Mario 3D All-Stars on YouTube. I have to say that I enjoyed the Super Mario Galaxy complete playthrough the most and that that game in my opinion is one of the best 3D Mario games ever made. Also it has great music, and in fact, this theme for the very first galaxy in the game, the Good Egg Galaxy, is probably one of my most favorite Mario music tracks ever, especially starting at 50 seconds in. It is in my opinion one of the most beautiful tracks I have ever heard for a Mario game:
I actually wanted to have Morton Koopa's name in the DIC Super Mario cartoons of "Big Mouth" as part of my username, but apparently that exceeds the number of allowed typed characters.
Ok, so these are my future plans for next Super Mario characters I will be on here:
Tomorrow: Morton Koopa Jr. (LOL wanted to change to him today but apparently have to wait til after October 5th)
November: Wendy Koopa
December: Bowser Jr. Koopa
January 2025: Bowser
February 2025: King Koopa (from Super Mario cartoon shows)
After that: I'll see what I feel like. I think I'll be Larry again but
I might be someone else from the Mario universe like Mario or
Luigi. I'll always be some character from Mario, even if it's a different
one each time.
I want you all to be straight up honest with me-like-I'm an only child. Sometimes I think "Hmm...it'd be fun to have a brother or sister; I wish I did". LOL do I not realize just how good I have it?
Seriously I've heard having siblings can be annoying. Is it though?
Just an amusing comment on KK Slider's voice when he sings-it kind of sounds like an old man trying to sing a young people's pop song and make his voice go WAAAAY higher than it normally would and failing miserably, and instead singing it WAY off key. Music he makes not involving him singing is still fire though.
Well, being an American, I know what tragic date today is, and I wish today was not that day, as every year, this
is always a very sad day for me. At the same time, I both mourn and honor in my heart those who gave their lives
so that others would be saved. We should never forget 9/11.
Ok so I read online that in Animal Crossing New Leaf for 3DS (which I have-I play it on my NEW! Nintendo 3DS XL) that on September 8 the leaves change from the lush summer green color to the fall orange and brown color, but it's now been one day after September 8, and they still haven't changed color. Why is that? It might be noteworthy that I recently updated the game with the "Welcome Amiibo" update (which I'm surprised is still available through wireless communication given how outdated the 3DS is by now), and I wonder if maybe they take longer to change with that particular update. I don't know. I'm confused.
Ok so I want to change my profile name and avatar and everything to Ludwig but it won't let me change my username, even though it says I CAN change it after or on September 4 2024, and it's September 4 now. I guess maybe I need to wait til tomorrow?
Aw, man...wanted to change my user name and profile pic and banner and stuff to Ludwig but apparently can't do that until September 3 so I changed them back
