Hmm, a Google search of "rpgs with romance options" shows that Divinity Original Sin 2 is a good one. It's one of the most critically acclaimed rpg games to have released in the past decade, although I haven't played it myself yet. https://gamerant.com/best-rpg-romances-ranked/

Technically Disco Elysium isn't out on the Switch at the time of my post, but I started it recently on the PS5 and felt compelled to spread the good word. I've spent maybe 5 hours or so playing, and it is one of the most literary games I've played. It's like an RPG and a "choose your own adventure" novel hybrid. The prose vollies between nihilistic sociopolitical commentary and degenerate juvenalia (flipping the bird being referred to as your "f*** you fingers" was my favorite so far). My only gripe would be it's very slow moving, although that could just be me as i'm notoriously slow at playing games. Highly recommended for those of you who've enjoyed the likes of Hotel Dusk and Return of the Obra Dinn - keep an eye out for it if you dont mind heavy subject matter.
I totally recommend Cuphead.
It's a hard game, I'm more than 25 hours in and still only at 74%. But what a feeling of satisfaction when I finally beat a boss. And the art style (graphics as music) are among the best I ever experienced in a game.

A few days ago I played “Creature in the Well” which I feel is very unknown compared to a lot of indies. It’s a short but very fun dungeon crawler that’s a mix of Diablo and Pong/Pinball as you attack by hitting projectiles at your opponent rather than directly. Unlike a lot of dungeon crawlers the levels aren’t randomly generated and each dungeon, though similar, has plenty of small puzzles and encounters to go through. Each weapon available is unique with a distinct ability and by endgame I was swapping them out depending on the situation, even the early game items had their use. All of this is wrapped up in a stylish 3D art style, intriguing story, and great atmosphere. I completed the game in 4.5 hours in one sitting because I couldn’t stop due to how fun and intense the game could be. Would definitely recommend when on sale as it also has some decent replay value.
@silentlysilent it wouldn't be the worst idea to buy the anniversary collection since it's on sale for a fiver. Those are the traditional experiences that are actually rock solid. However, the advance games are really metroidvanias so it's a completely different collection of games/gameplay.
Does anyone know if Devil may cry story is a continuation or is each game a separate story as I really want to buy/ play the 3rd but I find the original DMC controls really outdated and clunky
@Jrpglover I think you should be fine.😉 I haven't played dmc, but every movie and game series makes each entry so it can work as a standalone story/game because, they always want to grow their audience or customer base. Every time I've seen someone ask this question about any game series, the answer has always been the same.
If I've played a game series out of order, I've never regretted it. Avoiding older, more antiquated controls sounds like a fine reason to play the more modern entry.
What are some good games like Star Fox 64 I could play on the switch? I’m looking forward to playing Sin and Punishment on NSO next month and I just preordered the Exzeus Collection but I want to know of some others out there
@Ubercrit if you're into linear arcade shooters then definitely take look at shoot'em ups galore on the eshop. Mostly short, can be played in quick sessions and they are somewhat replayable.
For example I really enjoyed Samurai Aces 2 (also known as Tengai), Sol Divide and Dragon Blaze. But that's just my taste, you can go to eshop and find something to your liking.
@Ubercrit The ExZeus Collection is coming out pretty soon (if not today if I remember correctly) and it seems to be a super much Star Fox, Space Harrier and Panzer Dragoon inspired game
@Fighting_Game_Loser
Preordered Exzeus last night and I’m looking forward to playing it when I get off work. It looks great and it’s definitely the type of game that would scratch that Star Fox itch
@Ubercrit Totally. When I watched gameplay it gave me a personal Planet Harriers vibe and anything that feels like a mid 90's to early 2000's Sega arcade game is always an A+ in my book
I'm about to get a new Switch this month. I gave Hollow Knight a try some time ago, after deciding to give it a second chance, and I really liked it despite my previous opinion. Should I buy the first game first or just wait for the Silksong?
@Cia
Who knows how long it will take until Silksong gets released? No mention at this year's Nintendo E3 presentation, no mention in Nintendo's last Direct.
I'd buy the first game now in your place, it's one of the best games on the Switch I've played so far.
Anyone who can recommend a 2D shooter, with has some kind of ekstra gameplay elements besiddes shooting. One of My alltime favorite shooter is the ancient ANCIPTAL (commodore 64), which had a tactical element in the Way you could regain your energy. Another very old classic is Wizball (also C64), where you had to colour the gameworld. I hope there is Someone out there, WHO knows What I'm talking about. The pure shmups game are a little limited in My opinion.
