Both statements can be true. Doctor Stephen Strange will be in the movie, Doctor Hugo Strange will not be in the movie.

These shows don't need a second season. This is the MCU, everything can get a continuation anywhere else. In a way, this was Wandavision season 2 and I like it that way.

Brothership has been going smoothly. The islands all seem to be around the same size though, I've been hoping to find something chunkier every now and then. As of now, the gameplay loop is a little too small. But I'd like to give a huge shoutout to side quests straight up telling which ones will expire if you progress the main story! More games need to do that!

I misunderstood something about the main quests in Lightning Returns and I suddenly found myself done with them earlier than expected. I'm basically ready for the finale on Day 13, so now I'm spending the remaining 6 days exterminating all monsters in the world. I started with the two strongest ones before they grow even stronger. I don't think I'll beat the 11 Million HP superboss though. I'll try, but I found out that he can straight up escape from combat when he's under 25% health, rendering the whole fight meaningless and that seems too frustrating.

That intern personifies Cero Miedo.

It took me way too long to realize how fucked up it is that you build houses on your properties and as soon as you collected enough rent money evict all those families, tear down the houses and build a hotel instead.

President Musk will be livid that his suggestion to call it 'Gulf of X' was shot down.

I finished Echoes of Wisdom, with completion of pretty much every side content, except I forgot to cross-reference my list of echoes with a complete list. I don't think I missed anything, but who knows? My final verdict is neither positive nor negative, just a resounding 'meh'. I'm always glad when they try something new, but I don't think open world works for a 2D Zelda. A game with a top-down perspective needs more barriers or the map just becomes a square. Height just isn't as much of a factor compared to a 3D environment.

spoilerI wish the final dungeon actually let you play as both Zelda and Link, solving puzzles together. I was kinda bummed out Link is entirely AI-controlled.

In its place, I have started Mario and Luigi: Brothership! I was very worried about the game, since I generally don't like it when an RPG segments its world too much. It's been a long time since I played Partners in Time, but I remember that one being very guilty of that, where each segment felt like a 'level' instead of a piece of a larger world. But I'm actually very happy with Brothership so far, it's cohesive! I'm trying to knock out the 'Beat 300 enemies without any equipment' challenge early and I'm getting so used to it, that I worry the game will feel too easy once my plumbers wear ties, so to speak.

I made a lot more progress in Lightning Returns. I'm past Day 7 now, which means all enemies are starting to grow stronger over time. I ran into a superboss in the Dead Dunes at some point... I didn't know an enemy like that would just roam around like that! I got scared thinking this is what Day 7 Plus was going to be!

I did say I was going to do a second playthrough of the game to cover all side quests, but as it turns out, I have almost all of them finished already. When the game said you don't have enough time to save everyone, they must have been lying. The 13 days you get are plenty. I might not be able to do the quest that asks you to exterminate every single enemy in the world though, but I'll definitely try!

Great! It was weird watching Collision unsure if some or all of these fights happening on a Saturday night might not be alright.

Okay, I clearly missed something about Ricochet. One day everyone's happy to see him in AEW, then he becomes the butt of a joke for MVP, covered in toilet paper and boo'd by everyone. Whose cat did he run over?

Even The Simpsons covered the Odyssey at some point though.

I prefer the wide game just to see the King run a marathon to castle up.
