[Thoughts] My Hopes For The Final Wave In The Booster Course Pass


There is now only one more wave to go and there are still quite a few things I would like to see

source: mariokart.fandom.com

The previous wave, wave 5, launched just last month with two new cups and three characters. It was a fine wave but this final wave needs to be better so the DLC can end with a bang. There are several characters and tracks I would still like to see in this game. We know that we will get 8 tracks as usual and this time it will be two characters that will be added. So, with that said, let's get on to what I am hoping for.

~ Tracks ~

To start with, I will talk about some of the tracks I would like. The track I want the absolute most is Airship Fortress from Mario Kart DS. This track is so cool from the music to the visuals to the actual track layout, it was a full package. The track itself is very memorable, from it's bullet bill dodging at the start to the spiralling slope at the end. This track has a good chance of getting in with it having a tour version and being one of the remaining stand out tracks from DS.

Another track I would like to see for sure is Toads Factory. This track was very chaotic for it's moving parts and conveyer belts, it made for a lot of fun. I do think this one has less of a chance though, as I don't think they will include it over some of the other remaining Wii tracks like Rainbow Road. As well as this, it doesn't have a tour version they can use as a base. 

The last track I would like to see is N64 Bowsers Castle. The atmosphere of this track was unparalleled. It was also quite a tricky track with many obstacles in the way, making for a good cup closer. This one also doesn't have a tour version though, while Frappe Snow land does, making that a bit more likely. This is especially the case, as this wave may release near Christmas and Frappe Snow Land perfectly fits that season.

~ Racers ~

As for racers, the first one I really want to see is Diddy Kong. I am still really surprised he wasn't in the base game of Mario Kart 8. Then I was even more surprised he wasn't added in the initial DLC or in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. So for him to then miss out on the DLC for deluxe I feel would be a big shame. I feel Nintendo has to put in Diddy or at least Funky Kong into this next wave for sure.

The other racer I would like to see is R.O.B. This robot buddy was in Mario Kart DS as an unlockable character. It was cool to be able to play as R.O.B and with them being in smash many people are aware of them. I think they would make a good addition to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe but probably had more chance in the earlier slots.

~ Closing thoughts ~

The DLC has been pretty good so far and I hope they are able to end it off well. I would be happy with even just one of these things I have mentioned making it into the game. I look forward to finding out what this last wave has in store for us. 

That's it for this blog, stay connected!

[Thoughts] Will Tears of the Kingdom have DLC?

  DLC for Tears of the kingdom could happen but I don't think it's likely Source: Author's edit I want to start off by saying I do not think this game needs DLC at all, though it would be welcome. Breath of the Wild had an expansion pass with 3 waves of content. Looking at the contents of that could give us an idea about what a Tears of the Kingdom expansion pass could look like. The first wave (Expansion pass purchase bonus) was available at the games launch and included the following: - 3 new treasure chests This was a very small wave featuring 3 chests of goodies. The biggest thing from this was a Nintendo Switch shirt link could wear. It was a nice little extra to start the game off with but definitely not the defining content of the pass. Moving on, The second wave (DLC pack 1) offered a lot more in terms of content, with it offering these following things: - Trail of the Sword - Master mode - Heroes path mode.  This wave offered many things to test the players skill...

[Thoughts] The Best Outfits For EVE In Stellar Blade

Stellar blade sure has some stellar outfits! Stellar blade has so much choice for outfits and they are all pretty cool. I constantly found myself changing outfits in Stellar Blade throughout my story playthrough. However, today I want to count down my top 5 outfits in the game. I will not be including the ones released as DLC in this, it's purely what was in the game on day 1. I will be showing both versions of each type as well, and stating which I prefer out the two (If it has two versions). 5. Junk Mechanic/Junk Engineer source: www.youtube.com/@IGN To start with, this is my fifth favourite outfit type for EVE. This is probably the most complex and weird design of the bunch. This spot was very close between this and another but funky design of this one just edged it out. Some of the features I like of this one are the asymmetrical nature and the belt pack. The asymmetrical nature is easily seen all over this outfit type. It makes it quite the eye catcher. The belt pack, for lack...

[Thoughts] Post Game Content Is Awesome!

Post game content is something I greatly  appreciate in games ~Intro ~ Many games over the years have included post game content, it's a way to give more content to players who really enjoyed their time with the main game and were left wanting a little more. Sometimes it is in the form of a few bonus missions, while other times epilogue stories can happen. I will now give some examples of good post game content and discuss what makes them good. ~Dark  Chronicle~ The post game for this game is quite big. After the main story you follow the main character on another small adventure to a place called the Zelmite Mine. This mysterious mine is huge, forming the biggest dungeon in the game by quite a bit. This Dungeon even has multiple mini bosses, one of which being fairly important to the narrative. While the dungeon does require a little bit of grinding to be able to get through it, it isn't too bad and I never found myself having...
