Re: Zelda: Breath Of The Wild 'Clone' Genshin Impact Gets New Beta Footage Trailer

Agramonte

Was in the closed Beta. Tried 3 times finally got it this time.

It is actually pretty good. The world is beautiful and fantastic to explore. And even in the beta you have tons to do. Once you get 3 characters to switch in and out of, gameplay opens up a lot.

Still has Some performance issues on PS4. I think PC is really the safe bet for this one in general. I liked it, so definitely jumping in as soon as it comes out.

Re: Talking Point: Have You Missed E3 This Year?

Agramonte

For PS4 and PC. Not really, all the 3rd publishers have announced their stuff as we go. And make a big enough splash to know it happened.

For Switch, everyone is at sleep at the wheel. But not sure E3 would have changed that.

Re: Paper Mario: The Origami King Launch Sales Compared To Past Entries (Japan)

@Dang69 I do not know if an 8 or a 9 or a 7. You can say it had a Nintendo Life Exclusive bump.

I am referring to the point that battles are not great, but they also not a "zero" (you even have 3 types of fights in world). And it is just 1 part of the game. The more I play it, the more I think that it is not enough to bring the entire game down.

My trip back to the city on Sunday, I figured out a few things in-world, laughed out loud over something that happened doing it and I did a few battles to buy extra health mushrooms. And as a whole, I was entertained.

Exploring and moving things along is fun. Battles are not great, but they do not ruin everything else. Basically the Nintendo Life review was spot on.

I had an issue on how many times they interrupt you during the first 2 streamers. Seemed like I could not take 5 steps without a text bubble. But It has settled down for now.

I rented it because seemed risky. But now glad I did. It is not a classic, but worth playing.

Re: Poll: No, Really, What Was Nintendo's Worst Year?

Agramonte

2020 has been awful so far. I've played Paper Mario on Switch - That is it. If I wanted to play Dex, I would have 3 years ago. That has been the story on Switch, over and over.

WiiU years were rough but that was expected - I bet on the wrong horse, things would go down hill. But at 56+ Million Switch, this should not be happening.

Re: Talking Point: Are You Prepared To Spend $70 On The Latest Games?

Agramonte

Switch games should not be $70. They are not even at PS4 standards most of the time when it comes to production values.

As for PS5. PC games are $60 and already run at 4K and with RayTracing. So not like those production cost are new. Nobody is charging me an extra $10 because I play on Ultra on my PC.

If games end up at $70. I'll rent more from gameFly and buy more used games on Amazon Warehouse. Make it average out the same for the year as now.

Re: Crytek Reveals Docked And Handheld Resolutions For Crysis Remastered On Switch

@TheFullAndy Because LM3 met people's expectations on what a game should look like. And commented on how great it looked. Same way people loved Bayo2 hit 60fps - it met an "expectation" and tons of comments on how happy they were. It cant be surprising when people come out and comment that another game on switch does not meet those expectations.

It was an example that it is the same thing, just in reverse. It cant be valid one way but yet invalid the other when not convenient.

PS4/X1 and PC owners already said they were not satisfied with this. Switch owners can do the same.

"Whatever point you are trying to make you are failing spectacularly"

So move on. Not sure why people keep treating public comment sections as personal chats directed at them 🙄

Re: Crytek Reveals Docked And Handheld Resolutions For Crysis Remastered On Switch

@JimmySpades In Holiday 2019 it was $250,... tons of people have bought it at that price (even less for an X1). And Whatever it is now with corona, 300, 350... does not change my point that people not comparing this to a 1,000 PC. Tons of gaming PC are not even 1K. Not sure why you did not go price police on that.

And I have said it already,.. this is 27 bucks. So for a Switch budget game it is fine. But if anyone says it is not good enough, I do not lie with the "does not matter" company line BS. Because when the Switch actually does something that looks decent, everyone notices it.

Re: Crytek Reveals Docked And Handheld Resolutions For Crysis Remastered On Switch

Agramonte

@TheFullAndy I am not struggling to understand anything. What people are struggling to understand is that when the Switch can't meet expectations some do not just accept it.

And they comment, I will wait to play it on whatever else they have or they do not want to pay it like that at all. That should not come as a surprise to anyone reading comments anymore.
