I liked playing Inside around halloween with my brother. So, I just got Limbo the predecessor, since it's $1.99, and 123 MB hardly eats up card space.

Now, if we only had a folder to keep newly bought, unplayed games๐Ÿค”. I'm likely to forget I bought Limbo, since the game tile will get buried on the Switch home screen. Thanks Nintendo ๐Ÿ˜  (๐Ÿ˜‰)

@Tyranexx cheers for the tip. I imagine I will be playing these in 6 months times as I got them (after hearing the accolades) as they were on sale and to add to the backlog/rainy day emergency supplies so I will try to remember that when I do play them.

I'm trying to add a few titles to my physical collection:-

I imported Undertale. Guacamelee and Ori Will of the Wisps were both quite heavily discounted.

@jump No problem! That way, you'll get to see Playdead's development progression. Stocking up for rainy days is certainly a good precaution.

@Tyranexx I was meaning to ask you, how did you find INSIDE and Limbo? I saw them on your Switch profile and it reminded me of the extremely sublime experiences I had with both games.

I played INSIDE first, and it was certainly the more terrifying game overall. The ending was so... so mysterious. There were some truly horrifying sequences, like the underwater submarine chase, the underground subway dog chase... it was really grotesque.

Limbo was second and the art style was really nice on the eyes. It allowed for some really simplistic but challenging puzzles and the music meant it was so.. so enjoyable.

@TheJGG I really enjoyed both games! I grabbed them both in sales late last spring and played them over the summer. They absolutely nailed the atmosphere, music, and environmental cues. Many of the puzzles are well done too. Limbo's art style really fit in well with the puzzles. There were a couple of obtuse solutions near the end, but overall it was decent. Inside is definitely the better of the two in my book and is a natural progression of development ideas learned from Limbo: more interesting puzzles, nerve-wracking sequences such as what you mentioned, some truly disturbing, yet thought-provoking scenes....Perhaps my only mild complaint would be my wish that there was more put into the ending (Well, the main ending), but it's by no means bad.

@Tyranexx The ending for Limbo was extremely thought provoking, but Inside's ending left so much open to interpretation, in a negative way. Limbo's ending felt... earned and even emotional because of what happened right at the end.

I ordered a Hori Switch Pad Pro, it should arrive Tuesday.
The Joycons are so tiny, they give me minor cramps when I play the Switch on the go.
I hope the Hori will counter that.

@TheJGG I completely agree. While open endings aren't necessarily a bad thing in some cases, I'd argue Inside's ending was too much so. Still, those later sequences make the player feel almost OP at times. XD

@ophone I pretty much exclusively use the Split Pad Pro when playing in handheld mode now. It's FAR more comfortable.

@Zuljaras it's an awesome game. I've just started replaying it as I wanted one last go before deleting the save data to make room for Eternal but I've just ended up replaying it instead. It's just full of testosterone pumping aggression as it should be

@jump Actually I played it on PS4 but I really wanted to complete the game on the Switch.

Also having Doom 64 physically and later this year the Original Collection from LRG, it would be awesome to have the last physical Doom(2016) as well

Also who knows LRG may get to do Doom Eternal as well later I am still impressed with their Divinity Original Sin 2!

Looking forward to get it then.

Got it this morning. Already played some Shovel Knight and Tetris 99 with it.
I'm impressed by that thing, even if it hasn't got rumble nor motion control. My Switch seems sturdier with it.

Crosscode physical cartridge arrived in the mail last weekend. I didn't even know it was released on cart until I stumbled across it on Amazon last week!
I'm supposed to be playing MH Rise and finishing Persona 5 on my old PS3 right now, so Crosscode will have to wait a little while, but I'm looking forward to playing it soon!

I've just got Bulletstom cheap in a digital sale, god damn it's fun. The humour is trying too hard but the trick shot mechanic is just pure fudging brilliant.

Inmost in the recent sale. It wasn't discounted much, but it's already cheap/short enough that I didn't really mind. Hoping to dig into it this evening.
