@Yousef- Character development over the films would be nice! I do hope a bit that they do that with his character in the third film, which I am assuming might be a bit more serious, since the casting reports did reveal a few characters that are going to appear in the film and it somewhat implies it might have a tone similar to that of Adventure 2. Let’s hope they release a trailer for it soon. There was a movie event (can’t remember the name) that happened a while back and they apparently showed a trailer or footage for the film to a few people behind closed doors, and from what the description said of what appeared in the footage, it sounds pretty awesome.

Yousef-

@Pastellioli you’re correct. Shadow alone will make it more interesting. Keanu never slacks either. He’s gonna easily overshadow the cast and he’s just a “voice” (for the record, I’m mocking Hollywood’s extreme fear for thinking actors have to show their face, hence why superhero films have so much “unmasking indoors” scenes).

@Yousef- I haven’t seen a lot of movies with Keanu Reeves in them (not even John Wick or The Matrix, surprisingly) but I do think he will do a great job since I saw a lot of excitement towards his casting, plus he is a really well-liked guy from what I’ve seen!

If I recall, I think another character from Adventure 2 was revealed to be in the movie via a casting report, so I do think the film has a really big chance to be better than the previous two. I just hope that if there is a human subplot, they do it correctly and don’t make it about something random, or just don’t have a subplot at all.

Every 3D Mario Bowser fight after 64 was mediocre at best and it wasn't until 3D Land where they started to get good again.

Have to somewhat agree.

@N00BiSH yeah I kinda get that, mostly because they are sorta water down versions of the fight from 64 though I think galaxy’s was pretty nice

Tail Concerto on PS1 is more enjoyable to play than Mario N64 / Sunshine.

@Anti-Matter Of course you think so. If you were locked in a room with only 1st party games, you would probably explode. Or you would go through withdrawals from not playing kids games in a while.

Most Mario final boss fights in the mainline games don't really captivate me- and aren't really the reason I play Mario. I don't really care if the Bowser fights aren't as good, since the main reason I really play is for the journey and the gameplay mechanics of the game itself. If the final fight ends up being amazing, then good on them for it- but it won't make me love the game or hate the game any more or any less. Super Mario Odyssey's Bowser fight was great, but it didn't save the game in my eyes. Meanwhile Super Mario Galaxy's bowser fights aren't the best, but I love the mechanics of that game so I'm willing to overlook it for the experience that Galaxy presents in the first place.

Oh, also.
I don't really like with the peoples who like 1st party Nintendo games too much and thinking 3rd party games are worse than 1st party Nintendo games.
I like to play certain 1st party Nintendo games but I have more interest with 3rd party games and that made me pretty flexible and quickly adapted with the games I have never played before and enrich my gaming knowledge.

I got a spicy one. I don't think super Metroid is very good. A couple issues I have.

1. The controls are awful. Jumping feels sooooo slow, and important maneuvers like the wall jump, grapple beam, and space jump are very unintuitive. Plus, having to use the minus button to swap between abilities is plain annoying. And...

2. The design is just... bad? A key design feature of Metroidvanias is memorable dead ends. A large pit you can't cross, or a door you can't open. Something to remember. But the things you have to do to progress in this game are so backwards. Like shoot a random block in the ceiling and jump through. There are more moments like that as well. I have genuinely no idea how anyone could figure it out without a guide.

Overall, I don't hate the game though. The visuals, music, and atmosphere are stunning. I just think compared to the other Metroid I've played (Zero mission, Dread, and AM2R, which I count as a Metroid.) it is BY FAR the weakest.

I don't hate Metroid, but it isn't my favorite of the Metroidvanias. Even Dread isn't as good as some of the other Metroidvanias out there. Hollow Knight pretty much eats Dread alive in terms of the gameplay and the over-all atmosphere.

Peoples here are too busy talking about next zelda games, next metroid games, next xenoblade games, etc.
Those games are unappealing for me so i like to bring my underrated / unpopular games in conversation, perhaps it will find some folks here that also have same interest with me.

This would probably get me hunted down by fossil fighters fans out there but I actually kinda like frontiers.

@Greatluigi Frontiers isn't that awful to me, but it just isn't as good as the previous two. Main issue is mostly just the battle system I feel, which gets rid of you actually having control over a team of three vivosaurs. It made the final boss pretty much excruciatingly hard for no good reason.

It also felt like they regressed with the Vivosaur count. A lot of the more unique species never made it in, and a bunch of recolors took their place. I get that every vivosaur got a redesign- which I like, but I genuinely think it suffers with that aspect for being a 3DS game. A lot of the redesigns look far uglier because they were pushing for realism in a game which was held back due to the tech it was on. Scales needed to actually be rendered.

After I played Fallout 3, Fallout New Vegas and Fallout 4, I have 2 unpopular opinions for this thread:

1. Fallout New Vegas is my LEAST favorite Fallout game (of the new generation, post Fallout 2). I mean I really liked playing it and I can see myself revisiting it BUT I prefer Fallout 3 and Fallout 4.

2. Fallout 4 is better than 3 and New Vegas. I do not know what it is, but the environments and the general exploration is SO MUCH BETTER in Fallout 4 for me.

Here's a contentious take: Tears of the Kingdom actually has a really good story and I don't get why people are so negative towards it. I get that the whole "cosmic stone of power" exposition is fairly rigid and the dragon tears don't work as well as they did in BotW, but the general narrative is actually fairly decent.

I personally enjoyed Oceanhorn 2 on my PS5 than botw on Switch.
Smooth 60 fps, better environment design, better haircut for main character.
And that's why I sold my botw in year 2021.
