Grr... that word
MOBILE
gets me triggered!
Lost me at "mobile". Still buttons are a good thing for anyone into these cheap RPGs.
Looks HQ, lost me at Auto-Fight.
The eShop is slowly starting to look like the Google Play store... that's NOT a compliment.
Give me more mobile games I need them. I crave them. I want to drown in them. Please oh please. Do it! Do it NOW!
hmm... this looks interesting!
sees the title and the trailer
Geez. Keep your phone games. Here's an idea, develop a new game from the ground up for Switch and watch it sell. Yes, I know that costs more. So what, you'll sell more. This game will likely not meet your sales expectations. Then you'll whine and say it's not worth it.
Mobile games getting ported to the Switch... hummmm... I'll pass, thank you.
Auto-Play = Not a Gaming experience.
A feature for Lazy gamers...
This is their reaction by Auto-Play :
"Yay... i won the Battle !
Looks, it was Easy Peasy, i don't have to think at all. Just press the Auto-Play button and everything are under control."
My reaction = Ohohoho..... Really ?!
Mobile RPG you say? Hmmm how can I put this? A lot of video games would have to cease to exist before I'd play one of those
too bad its not "NEW" RPG is now in development for the Switch.
@Anti-Matter I've never understood this whole auto play rubbish...seriously,what is the point?totally pointless!May as well just watch the game on you tube or something.
As for the game?Hmm...no thanks.
@Wazeddie22
Same.
The game looks Mediocre in my opinion.
I actually really like the look of this. I'm not a big fan of mobile games, but hopefully on Switch it'll be a good, traditional RPG.
Earthbound and Etrian Odyssey have auto-fighting as well, just saying. Those are some of my favourite RPG's. The auto fighting is only recommended when you're already too strong for the enemies you're facing anyway. I don't know about this game, but the character design looks likable. Beyond that... Well, I'm open for being pleasantly surprised.
Crap mobile games and stay on crap mobile devices, and off my consoles
@Racthet916 Yeah, Nintendo really needs to get it's act together soon as far as curating the e-shop goes. Otherwise plenty of worthwhile releases will just end up being drowned up by the sheer amount of throw-away content released each week.
Unfortunately, I doubt that Nintendo is up the task here. Others stores are struggling with this as well after all, even though no stores is as barebones as the e-shop right now.
Here's another crappy phone game to add to the Switch eShops impressive number of games.
What next, Candy Crush?
Yes I did just jump on the hate train.
Lol, an RPG that began on mobile sounds about as good as reheating last weeks hot dogs.
It could still have a decent story, but unless they totally rework the game, I doubt the gameplay would be any good.
Simply put - I didn't buy a Switch to play phone games. Particularly when I typically need to pay $10-$30 more for the same game. No thank you.
Why did they developers bother with "jiggle physics" on the female models when they're so low poly? Seems like an odd priority set. Personally I'll give this a miss.... not sure what benefit a mobile game gets by coming to the Switch.
My phone is even MORE mobile than my Switch.
yea, no thanks.
Looks interesting, but I'll wait for a review.
It's adorable when console gamers get all uppity about their system and games. Like consoles actually have finally found something THEY can look down on.
Frankly the mobile version of Seven Knights is better then most of the drek the switch gets anyway
