    So in English, the title sounds like gratuitous Japanese. But in Japanese, it sounds like gratuitous English (it's literally just the word "picnic"). That alone should tell you what kind of bizarre ride you're in for.

      @@JayFFAFAlesanaES I'm Swedish and I'm curious to know how it would be pronounced differently in Sweden. I mean yeah, we drag out the i:s a little more in Swedish (depending on the region you're from) but that's the only difference to how to say it in Japanese.
      Just wondering, or maybe you're Swedish too and are like "what are you talking about", haha.

    I had to fast for a whole day until 6:30, and I had gotten this game for 9 cents that morning. I played the whole game in one sitting. In four hours and, I wouldn't have gotten through the day without it. It was perfectly easy and simple. I was really hangry and grumpy but i didn't get really frustrated a single time. Such a pleasant experience even when starving

      "Sure SSBU is the best Smash Bros game ever made, with the most content and best gameplay by far, but I found some fights in this specific optional mode a bit repetitive so I didn't love it, NEXT!"
      "BOTW is a revolution for the franchise, and may be one of the best open world games ever made. It lacks enemy variety though and some shrines are samey so it's only OKAY"
      They need to get better consistency, or get rid of this stupid arbitrary rating system.
