Youve just made an enemy out of the Touhou avis

Ughh I had this nearly exact timeframe with giving away his food, too. I could never throw away his old sweaters, toys, or collars—just feels like something I've gotta carry around

Never really gets easier, but the only move is to let another pup into your home, clearly

wow, the parallel experience is wild: I've done both of these things. it was so tremendously difficult to clean my place after Riker passed . . . helps to know someone understands this, but it also hurts to know someone else carries the same weight

the best part is that this ad had foil-stamping for the ICE BLUE text, shit was PRISTINE

LMAOOOOO

I had to look up who this character was because ive only played with the base roster lmao

Lmao I dont recall this, but it's on brand enough

ooo i need to try that SNES trilogy at some point. does that have rearranged music?

i *probably* could've done this before, but the last couple stages can get insanely brutal, and the gauntlet of three final bosses is absolutely nasty. i'm sure this shit is easier if you know speedtech, but i've been rawdogging these games and it's been intense pain for 2 and 3 lmao

she's the fuckin best

i know most people do ahaha. man, it's Mega Man all over again . . . I think MM1 is by far one of the easiest games in the series and all my fellow boomers vehemently disagree

i was precision-dodging all the fireballs and waiting for openings, shit was rough. couldn't get in there with enough ninpo, it seemed. either way, i managed to do it after a couple game overs, but goddamn

oh damn, this is extremely helpful, thanks! I think my issue is also that i absolutely stink with using the phantom doubles. like, i see the vision there, but the timing of cycling their attacks is hard for me to micromanage, so i end up relying on the sword way too heavily

my biggest issue with NG1 is the notorious final section of the game, but i never really found 6-2 and 6-3 particularly bad? it's rough for sure, but it just feels easier to maintain momentum in NG1. 1 starts off super easy and then shows it doesn't respect you about 3/4 through—2 is hard from 2-1

man, it's the hitboxes. NG1 had some deceptively large ones too, but Ryu's sword is SO much more active and big in that game by comparison. enemy patterns are way more static in 2, but they're far more deadly, and it's very easy to get onto walls or get stuck in terrible situations. the final boss 😱
