Animal Crossing: New Horizons update will let you teleport!

By
Valentine's Day and the Festivale holiday ended, and I enjoyed them, but a new Animal Crossing: New Horizons trailer update drops via Nintendo Direct with new Super Mario themed items coming over to our islands next week. To celebrate the 35th anniversary, Super Mario themed items are coming into the game on March 1, while the update will be released on February 25, 2021. These items will be available via Tom Nook shopping. 

Moreover, March 20th is also approaching which will mark Animal Crossing: New Horizon's first anniversary. Honestly, I think New Horizon players, new and old, will use this date so that they can stream more of their games. Looking back, there has been plenty of updates that have gone our way including the summer update - namely swimming (which southern hemisphere players are currently enjoying). The update is perfect for those players who wish to turn their island into a obstacle course,  but the warp pipe is simply the most useful item out of this update. Ladies and Gentlemen, we can now teleport from one side of the island to the other, outside out of our home and inside the basement. Does this break immersion? With talking animals, owing a tanuki your mortgage, and being able to put full grown trees into your pocket -- yes, the pipe breaks immersion.


Many Animal Crossing fans have been anticipating for Brewster's return, our beloved pigeon barista. Rumors have been spreading too about a farming update -- not just pumpkin planting. Fans thought that this update would confirm the rumors. Although it appears that now is not the time. Since fans have received something different, I don't see a problem about this update since Super Mario celebrating its 35th year is a big deal for Nintendo. Understandably, Nintendo would promote and pay an homage on their bestseller. However, I'm also hoping to see Brewster or Dr. Shrunk again.

I finally found my new staple game - Palworld Review

By

Mozzarina of the window, what is your wisdom? When I saw the Palworld ads as early as 2021, I knew it was going to sell. But I admit I also thought it was a cheeky game resembling a monster collector with guns and would end up as a vaporware. The Palworld ad looked rough too when Pocket Pair was still using Unity.  Fast forward to the January 19, 2024, I bought the EA of Palworld on Steam. They did it! I didn't think twice of getting it. It was interesting at least. Now, I'm glad I'm playing it. This article is long overdue on Harvest Gamer, but I wanted to make sure it's out there. Palworld is a game I've been looking for . That is, I finally found a game that needs to be played and installed on all of my machines. Why play Palworld? Synopsis Pros Singleplayer and Multiplayer capable Pals are not a gimmick Fixed Map Design At 60fps Cons Need More Base Creativity Five Pal Party Conclusion Why play Palworld?  (top) The premise is simple. You catch Pals, build a base...

Sims 4 now uses a Daily Login Reward to unlock new content

By

The Sims 4 is adding new content via a Daily Login award mechanic. New weekly content will be unlocked that can then be claimed after logging in a few times a week. At least they're free  but I have some thoughts as it is a timed event. Perhaps they're testing this model for Project Rene.  First of all, what is the harm in adding the new content without logging into the game? The daily login mechanic looks like the phase to turn The Sims into a completely online game. I won't dub Project Rene as Sims 5 yet as its concept functions closer to a spin-off Sims (aka Sims Online). Obviously, having a daily login mechanic belong to online games. Perhaps they want to bring back the playerbase -- sort of?  Granted that the daily login adds a sense of urgency, I don't see any difference if they simply serve new content without the "battle-pass" gimmick. Also, new content can be announced on their social media.  They've done it with the pools and everybody was simply...

Life By You is cancelled

Life By You has announced its cancellation. The announcement was made on the Paradox Interactive Forums via Paradox General Discussion. Having it announced on the PDX general discussion instead of the Life By You forums means that the Life By You forum will likely shut down soon.  The game has been cancelled due to the game lacking on some key areas according to Paradox Deputy CEO, Mattias Lilja. Which may translate to simply dissatisfaction with the current builds and delaying the game is not their answer. There are other sides to the disappointing story about funding or corporate matters. One of the developers posted an article , stating that they were only informed two weeks before the early access. The biggest selling point for me is its supposed open world and concurrent gameplay. Rod Humble described it as your neighborhood would slowly transform as your game progresses. The other selling point to me is its direct competition with The Sims. Based on the reception on my bad e...
