Re: Poll: DOOM Eternal Is Out Today On Switch, Are You Getting It?

@JaxonH I hear you.

I have an issue with Digital only trend not because I like physical. But because I need to Trade, Sell-back or Rent some of my Day 1 $60 games (well now $70 🤦‍♂️)

I rented Miles Morales, SackBoy and now Age of Calamity. That is money I saved to Pre-order CyberPunk (on PC because $42 on GOG and they get 100% of cash) and Bravely Default 2.

Digital only will blow my gaming budget out of the water.

"nope, I played a BETTER version already"

Part of questions... so you know, people are expanding on their "choice" in question #2.

People mentioned they had played Dragon Quest S on Switch already (or waiting for GamePass) and were not getting it on PS4/Ps5 in the PushSquare review. Nobody made a fuss about it

"it's cheaper elsewhere, this new Switch release shouldn't cost what new releases cost because its 8 months old on this other platform"

Tons of people complain about old Console ports on PC for $60. Next time I see it on PCGamer I'll send you the link.

PushSquare article and announce how I'd rather play on Switch

Some are saying they playing Cyberpunk on PC not on PS4 at pushSqure right now on a survey just like this one.

I mentioned I had moved Yakuza like a Dragon to PC so I could play it on the GO via Shadow PC. In the "What are you playing this weekend" on PushSquare. Nobody attached me

Happens all the time. Switch has more delayed games (and compromises) so you will see more here.

"Sniper Elite 4 is a big game"

Yes and so was Horizon Zero Dawn. But people with a PS4 and a PC were not all that excited it was on PC because they had played it 3 years ago.

You somehow want people to act differently when the Switch is an option. Pc, PS4, Switch... people pick one over the other all the time and comment about it.

Have a copy of Animal Crossing: New Horizons for the Mrs as a Hanukkah gift his week

She mentioned how people at work were playing it, so another attempt to get her into gaming 😅 not using my Switch anyway.

Immortals on Switch got outsold by the PS5 install base version. Never had a chance at $60. It will sell better once the price drops.

Regardless if you playing either - Amazon Prime has free sets

Re: For Only The Third Month In Two Years, Switch Wasn't The UK's Best-Selling Console

Agramonte

@JaxonH For sure... One selling does not mean the other does not. When the 3DS was selling boat loads so were home consoles and Graphic cards. Nothing has changed.

Sure, if you happy with Sniper Elite 4. But I did not care about SE4 on PC back in 2017. I wanted to play ZBOTW. Just like I do not care about SE4 on Switch in 2020... I want to play Cyberpunk, Yakuza, Dirt 5, F1, Valhalla, Miles Morales.

Same way I do not want to pick between KENA or Bravely Default 2 in early 2021... I want both. I played MH: World... now I want to play MH: Rise. So I have hardware that covers any of those options.

If I have time (and extra $60) to play I want to play what I am most exited about... for most of 2020, that has not been on Switch.

Re: Famous Footballers Think EA Could Be Illegally Profiting From Their Names And Likenesses In FIFA

Agramonte

@JimmySpades "No games" as in there is no EA NCAA games anymore because NCAA/Collegiate Licensing Company got sued by students for not getting payed for their likenesses in-game.

So "winning" meant EA had to stop making it because they are waiting for the league and US colleges to figure it out. That happened back in 2014, nothing to do with covid in 2020 or live games.

Re: Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Calamity UK Launch Sales Are 'Nearly 324% Bigger' Than Original

Agramonte

@westman98 The opening 20 sec party scene in AC: Valhalla has more individual faces than the entire first chapter in this nonsense. The first side mission has an actual narrative (not go kill 300 cloned rag dolls)

When you go to a mountain, you actually go to it... and it looks like a snow covered mountain. This goes to a loading screen and a guy narrates "you are going to the mountain" and then it is the same (even the same awful low budget patches of grass) just now textures are in a white color palette.

If there was a production budget it went to buy the ZBOTW texture/audio pack from Nintendo. Again, F2P Genshin Impact has better production value than this (hell, even the free game in my PS5 does)

Re: Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Calamity UK Launch Sales Are 'Nearly 324% Bigger' Than Original

Agramonte

@westman98 Well obviously it is not that easy to capture ZBOTW or even Zelda magic in a game (even with Nintendo involved) or this would not end up a repetitive snooze fest (or get a mediocre Oceanhorn 2)

It has not violated anything - because there is nothing "big" about this. This is no Smash, Mario Odyssey or Pokemon, it is not even Rehash link Awakening from a September launch slot. There is simply nothing else.
