@bam541 said in Suggesting Migrating to r/UneasyAlliance:
unfortunately I have to use a VPN everytime I want to go to reddit so it's unpractical for me. And I'm not like a big fan of going on reddit anyways. I'll probably just stick to the EZA official and unofficial discords for now.
Can you provide a link to the unofficial Discord? I'm not familiar with it.

^ I know one game in advance what I'm playing, meaning when I start playing a game, I already know the next one. Depending on how short/long the current game is, and how much I'm anticipating the next one, I could have a gap waiting for the next one to release, or interrupt the one I'm on.
Kyle's done a written interview with Rodney Alan Greenblat, the artist behind Parappa The Rapper (one of Kyle all-time favorite games) for a limited edition Kickstarter-based gaming magazine.

I have very little money to spend on games, so I get games that I KNOW are going to turn my crank, and have a lot of bang for the buck. I also buy nearly 100% physical for resale value, so digital-only games are low-tier for me.
Typically, this means Nintendo first-party and/or franchises I have a strong track record with. I typically don't buy sports games, JRPGs, simulators, ultra-mainstream games (GTA, COD, Overwatch, etc.), or 2D platformers, and as I have never owned a Sony console, no Sony exclusives.
So, my next three confirmed buys are Pokemon Violet (not sure if I'll have the money yet, though), Tears of the Kingdom, and Starfield (though it's a new franchise, I'm expecting it to be 'Skyrim in space').
Also, my backlog (both owned and to-buy) is huge right now because the Switch has been getting great releases at an incredible rate. Some Xbox 360 and Xbox One games keep sliding down...
