The Game Collector

I know how you feel. The hours go by SO fast. It like it's only a few hours a day before it's already bed time again.

It's okay. It was such a long time ago. It almost felt like a different world over there. I'm just trying to focus on the here and now. And btw, thanks for the follow earlier. 😉

It's always hard seeing people on the internet getting the latest games on (or shortly after) release day. I always have to wait until prices go down first (or get them used later). And I don't know how I'll ever get more Switch 2 games at those $70 and $80 prices? But have fun with Requiem! 😃👍

Twitter was where I first saw you. Maybe two+ years ago. But things seemed different on there. I remember you never (or rarely) replied to me on there. But you were so popular. Everyone that I followed also followed you, and sometimes said good things about you. Some I followed never came to Bluesky

I had something similar happen to me here on Bluesky once. Where I couldn't post anything, or even see my own posts and replies. But that was a Bluesky issue that they were aware of, and they fixed it. I'm always shocked when I hear that anyone is still on Twitter. I left after that phony election.

The horse kept taking the automated paths. Even when I wanted it to go a certain way, it constantly changed course. And I can't really remember the story now because it's been so long. But I remember not knowing exactly what was going on throughout the game. The ending especially confused me.

You're gonna get angry at the controls on the horse riding. I hated that horse SO much. 😅 And the story made no sense to me. But fighting all of the giant Colossi was fun. 😊

Same. I've never been able to talk to women. 🫣

These events have always been too far away for me to go. That's depressed me ever since I was a kid. I never got to go to any game events. 😑

I know absolutely nothing about this game. 🤔

I can't believe how bad Lara Croft looked in those early games. Her whole face looks like it was drawn on. Like eyebrows with an eyebrow pencil. But with the entire face. Graphics sucked back then. I remember making fun of Tomb Raider while playing it on a kiosk at Toys R Us. When the game was new.

You kidding me? 🤨 I loved Donkey Kong 64.

All of these crazy and confusing new versions of Windows, and I'm still getting everything I possibly can out of my Windows 7 PC. I HATE the newer versions. I have a Windows 10 PC as well. But I'm trying to hold off as long as I can before using it regularly. Some of my software doesn't work on that

I can't wait to see Pam Bondi fired. I hate that smug witch. She's SO full of herself.

But not back to Twitter/X. I left that cesspool after the rigged 2024 election, and I'll NEVER go back there.

The main thing I constantly complain about on Bluesky is being ignored (or unseen). I just can't get hardly ANYONE to ever reply to anything I post. Whether my posts are positive or negative. Where IS everyone? It's like I'm always talking to my own self. I've been tempted to leave SO many times.

I finish my games too. I never move on to another until I've completed the one I'm playing. UNLESS I get so completely stumped (or angry) at a game that I don't care about returning to it. Like in Resident Evil Revelations on Wii U. I got so frustrated on the final boss that I never returned.

Anybody else out there always have dreams about your past instead of your current life? I'm always dreaming about my childhood friend, and he's always still a kid (even when I'm my current age). And the vehicle I'm driving is always my first car. Or, I'm always in school, plotting ways to get out.

Sounds painful. 😮

I agree 💯. That crap controls my entire life. People on Bluesky etc. probably thinks I'm just some angry, grumpy jerk (or in some cases, a troll). But that's only because I'm always so sad from anxiety and depression. And it's kept me single and isolated all my life. SO tired of being single.😟

As long as you had fun. 😀 I haven't had the chance to get this game yet, but I've been hearing good things.

Already? It just came out. It must be easy or something. 🤨

And I never even played a single Pokémon game when I first started watching the anime. My first (and only) official Pokémon game was Diamond. I loved it, but never played another. My first Zelda game was A Link to the Past. Turned me into a fan for life. And I was with Mario since the beginning. 😃👍

I can't believe it's the 30th anniversary of Pokémon, and the 40th for The Legend of Zelda (and the 40th of Super Mario Bros. last year). Makes me feel prehistoric. Where does the time go? Three legendary franchises. The Pokémon anime is the only anime that I ever got addicted to (for a while). 😊

The important thing is, if it makes you happy, then there's no need to "grow out of it". Happiness is a blessing. However you find it, hold on to it as long as you can. Keep on loving what makes you happy. With that said, I wish you many more years of Pokémon bliss. 😊

I believe (from experience) social media is very BAD for mental health. I never get what I'm wanting out of it. Such as interaction and acknowledgement (aside from like 2 people). All of my personal problems (such as over eating and depression) gets worse every time I see there's no notifications. 😒

So I clicked on the bell, and OMG! A giant list of replies and likes that I've been receiving all this time. WHAT THE HECK?! In the past, I always received an email whenever someone commented to me. So I assumed I wasn't getting any replies. How long has it been this way? I feel like an idiot. 🤦‍♂️

For a LONG time, I've been super frustrated because I wasn't receiving any emails letting me know if I had replies etc. on any of my hundreds of YouTube comments. I kept checking my settings, and all notification options were on. And just moments ago, I noticed the notification bell at the top...TBC

I've never played either. But I'm willing to bet you're right.

Every time I finally get my hands on other games I was longing to get, another one releases that I also want (such as this RE game). And I know I'll have to wait forever again before I can buy it. It's my personal video game cycle of torment. 😖 Though my backlog makes me wonder why I'm complaining?
