@NintendoByNature Both are great games. You can't really go wrong either way. It's not much of a sale, but Walmarts in my area sell most new switch games $10 cheaper than list price

Give me a heads-up if you're going to send a request please.

Yeah, keep checking the eShop sales regularly, @NintendoByNature.... Bravely Default II certainly might be given a date fairly soon, just who knows when

@Losermagnet yea mine do too. They typically have DQ stocked but not OT. Ill sit on it for a couple weeks to see how the rest of the year plays out

@Duboiss

Cosmic Star Heroine is great, as is the longest five minutes!

BDSP has online matchmaking!

Duboiss

@Screen Cosmic Star looks great thanks for the recommendation

Also for someone who never played any atelier is Ryza a good point of entry ?

@NintendoByNature like mentioned above both are great, but what are you looking for??

Do you want a more linear story and world to explore, and feel a deep connection with your characters?

Or do you like more the open world feel?
And ofcourse do you preffer realistic art or pixel?
All things to consider.

Either way both are a great choice and can give you easily 100+ hours

@Duboiss Must admit, I’ve not played any Atelier, either, but I have read around that Ryza is a return to form after a slightly lacklustre Mysterious trilogy. I am not sure where to start myself! Might be hard going back to the Dusk or Arland trilogy after Ryza, but I gather none is a bad choice.

I've played a very small amount of All-Star Fruit Racing. It's a good kart racing game. Obviously, it's difficult to recommend it over either MK8D or CTR. But for the price of $1, I think you'll get more than your money's worth.

@DenDen yea im not really sure which way. Im leaning more towards DQ to get that big game feel, but i love the look of OT. Its a tough one.

They do both have demos, BTW, @NintendoByNature .... ? Have you tried them yet? That might help you decide

@BruceCM i did when they both launched. Liked em both a bit but i wasn't as into jrpgs as I am this year. So I didn't get them a fair shake. Itll probably boil down to one of them going on a decent sale and me impulse buying lol

Anybody know what first person shooter Metal Jesus is playing here? I pasted the video to play at the relevant timestamp. So, just hit play and watch for that 10 second clip. Piece of cake. What game is it? If it's Bioshock, which Bioshock?

Eh, I hardly play FPS games, @WoomyNNYes .... So far, I'm playin Bioshock 1 & it certainly doesn't look like that, so I doubt it'd be any of those

@DenDen hmm, that might lean me towards DQ then haha. As I've gotten older, I'm trying to prolonge my life, not take years off but suffering from rage enducing games haha 🤣
