On Switch I’m playing through Mario Wonder (awesome game - have been slowly savouring it over the last few months) and Steamworld Quest. I’d heard mixed things about Quest, but I’m really enjoying it! I like how each character has their own deck of cards which you can synergize with the rest of your team. And it’s a bit more forgiving than something like Slay the Spire as you can add or remove cards to your decks at your leisure.

On PS5 I just started Spiderman 2 - loving the larger map and ability to switch characters.

I thought both games were excellent, but yes there was definitely something about BOTW that set it apart. In addition to what you’ve said, I think it’s partially that BOTW was such a unique experience the first time through - little things like the stamina meter for climbing, the cooking to help you craft items that warm you up etc. Discovering these features and setting off in whichever direction you fancied was a joy. TOTK didn’t have this same joy, as I already knew about these mechanics. And it felt like there was much more of a push to get the player to go in a specific direction, rather than leaving the exploration up to them.

I reckon they probably did the best job they could’ve with a sequel, but it was never going to be possible to live up to BOTW.

Ehh not really bothered by any of these. Technically I do have Digimon Cyber Sleuth on Switch already and have put a few hours into it. I really need to play some more as it seemed fun (before I got distracted by other games)

Hey, thanks for responding! :) It’s ok, Lemmy is still growing and hopefully in the future we’ll get more people here.

For me, this new douche is an improvement. It’s made cleaning out a lot easier - I think partially because the ‘standard’ douche would shoot water directly upwards, which if you’re not careful can go beyond the sigmoid and make cleaning harder. This one shoots more gently to the sides. The downside is that it requires a bit more prep (application of lube and the slight risk of dripping water) but I think it’s worth it! I really like being able to just pour water directly into the bulb, and the nozzle being a bit larger makes it much easier to clean the douche itself too. Oh and be a little careful as there can be a slight edge to the seam on the nozzle - as long as you’re gentle pushing it in, it’s ok.

So I’ve had a bit more practice and I might as well share what I’ve found, just in case anyone else finds this useful.

My steps for using it are as follows:

1. Fill it up to the top with warm (not hot) water. One benefit of this design is that you don’t need to fill a plugged sink to siphon up the water, as I had to with the old variety. You can fill the water directly into it.
2. Make sure the nozzle is fully screwed on to prevent any leakage
3. Apply a little bit of lube to the nozzle and push it in, angled towards your stomach
4. Get it far enough up that the grooves are entirely inside your butt, otherwise water will run down these and escape
5. Gently squeeze. The amount of water you use will depend on your size, as your rectum will differ per person. You don’t want to put too much water up there otherwise you’ll flush stuff from past the sigmoid and it’ll make cleaning a lot harder. I suppose if you’re using bigger toys you’ll want to clean deeper, but for me about a third to half of the bulb was enough water
6. Slowly remove the nozzle. If you can, try and clench a little to prevent water dripping when you take out the end of the nozzle. I still find myself dripping a little, so I’ve been doing this whole process in the shower/bath
7. Sit on the toilet and push the water out. If you’re not clean, go for another round but try not to overdo it.

Best of luck!
