By "Southern Cone" I'm including PR/SC/RS/MS. It fits with "grumpy people".

(Although technically MS, half PR and Paraguay would be in a third category - "overheated, needs a chill drink")

Was it Egoraptor? I didn't even recall which Youtuber made me realise this. If yes, he's right.

Forced tutorials in general suck major balls. Good game design teaches you with gameplay. For example I love that Mega Man X (SNES) has a whole level to teach you how to play, that does not feel like a tutorial at all.

I gave it a check and found this link. It's practically the same, indeed - I think that I use 1:4 cornmeal:water (the recipe has 1:5~6) but this varies almost on a household level.

From the link:

swapping water with milk

...holy fuck this is genius. I usually pan-fry it for breakfast and add milk over it, but gotta try this someday.

Even before it changed its motto, the idea of a company saying "don't do evil" is on the same level as a cat saying "don't scratch furniture".

I was reading in my last dream. I remember it well because the content was a language mess full of puns that my dream made up.

(Something about "el ga coguLLMeli bianchi e priti de tante grosserìe"; roughly "there are black and white mushrooLLMs of many sizes/incivilities". The book in the dream was mixing Portuguese and Talian this way. If anyone wants I can narrate the dream here, but be warned that there isn't anything too interesting in it.)

Yup. In other words they didn't want to pump out a sequel. Even then that's what plenty people expected from CC, since it's "part of the Chrono series", and then got disappointed and an otherwise great game got this "but what about CT..." stigma. (I remember the outrage back then. And the kids distorting it into a SNES vs. PS fight.)

I've seen the domain but it's the first time that I actually checked it. First impression: holy fuck the art in bolha.io looks amazing. Content on its Lemmy instance seems focused on games, so I'll probably subscribe to a few comms there.

It's basically polenta made with white maize. It tastes milder and definitively different, but the biggest difference for me is the texture - once it cools it gets more "gelatinous" (dunno if this makes sense), but firmer. I also have an easier time deep-frying it.

My grandma prepared it almost every day. Often as "hairy polenta" (polenta, mozzarella, polenta, sauce - the "hair" was the cheese strings), so I spend a good time in my childhood thinking that yellow = instant polenta.

I played CC.

Sure, the story is connected - Kid being raised by Lucca, the Time Devourer being Lavos, Guile being strongly hinted to be Magus, all that thing. But the loads of characters make you look at the big picture, instead of focusing on their individual personalities; the theme (dimensional travel vs. time travel) is different; and the battle system is nothing alike. Those things are actually improvements, but at least for me, they make it that CC doesn't scratch the same itch as CT.

And there's always that lingering melancholy in Chrono Cross that is at the same time beautiful and completely unlike the "happy" Chrono Trigger.

That's why I say that it's a great game, but an awful sequel. It doesn't have the elements that make you say "THAT is Chrono Trigger 2!", but it's fun and in certain aspects better than CT.

In my region we also prepare them with onions and chicken blood. I know how it sounds but it tastes amazing.

I might actually give this a try, I used to eat another chicken blood dish. (Perks of having rural relatives!)
