Very tempted in AI
Time for AI. Great saving on what was too high a starting price.
Ahh, I feel that's the normal price AI should have had. But I'm probably gonna do it. I still miss a good zero escape like summer game!
I bought AI a while a go on the Ps4 because the demo was fantastic but still not got round to playing it yet.
I enjoyed my time with AI: Somnium Files, but contrary to the review, the performance isn't "flawless". I'm only going by personal experience, and secondhand info from some other users on this site, but at times, the game would hang for up to 15 seconds as it loads a nested video clip. When this happens repeatedly, it becomes a bit annoying.
@edhe Yeah, there can be some pretty long pauses on the Switch (at least in handheld which is how I played). Not enough to really bother me and affect my experience of the game though. Still a 10/10 for me.
@edhe The performance is definitely the worst part of the game. It doesn't help that the worst offender which are the aforementioned video clips, are often short flashbacks/reminders that take more time to load than what it takes to run the clip itself.
That said, it's just a little annoyance in otherwise great game. It's still perfectly playable on Switch. I had great time with it.
Hmm... tempted by STEINS;GATE 0 but really would prefer it if they released a physical version.
@Late @BenAV
Don't get me wrong - I'd definitely recommend the game, it's just a foible I had. I haven't heard any accounts on how the other versions run, but if I was completely honest, the performance didn't temper my enjoyment as a whole.
i definitely recommend Ai , its a very wonderful experience
Loved AI: The Somnium Files. Highly recommend it!
My wife and I were just talking about AI last night and wondering when it would go on sale... must be a sign to buy!
@Paranoid_Android I would recommend it!
I’m almost done with AI, and I gotta echo all the recommendations. It’s a great game.
PIxelJunk Monsters 2 is a delightful little oddball—definitely recommended at that price!
It's wild to see the eShop have so many decent to good sales. Previous generations hardly had this many discounts. At least, if memory serves...
@PapaPedro I'm always on the fence on whether or not too get Pixeljunk Monsters 2 when it's on sale. I remember enjoying the demo... And €4,39 for the deluxe seems like a great deal. Did you play it solo or co-op?
AI: Somnium Files is great by the way.
PixelJunk Monsters 2 is good too.
Time for me to download the relevant Stein's Gate games on my Switch's wishlist!
Out of all the games, which are the best?
Never heard of these games...
@SilentHunter382 Get it, it's good. Miles ahead of other visual novels with actual "walk a character around" sections.
@DoktorTotenKopf AI Sominum is great. Don't know about the others.
@Shambo I've only ever played solo and really enjoyed it. I bet it would be fun with friends, too.
Liked the AI demo but still deciding whether I should get it on PS4 or Switch.
AI is a steal for that price. It is easily one of the top 10 Switch games for me, and I've played approximately 250 Switch games.
AI was fantastic. I’ve just beaten Steins Gate but it was the OG version.
I’m now tempted to check out more of their games in future sales.
Picked up Yu-no and Steins:Gate Elite. I already had AI Somnium Files and I just love the paralell universe theme in games! Highly recommend all three if you like sci-fi/murder mysteries in your visual novels!
Fair warning tho: Yu-no is VERY fan-servicey. Good story tbh but skip it if you can't stand objectification of women. It's pretty bad.
AI still looks expensive to me. While it looks good, I can wait.
