This excites me a lot! A new way to enjoy Pokemon and the ways of battling. Really cool and happy to see it.
Looks like Legends: Arceus was giving u s a new way to enjoy a Pokemon game from the perspective of habitats , behaviour and collecting.
Z-A so far looks to be focussed on battling, which is great news for my taste. With so many 'mon, battle stats and combinations to go against each other, this really carries potential for endless gameplay.
@Medic_alert Appreciate your reply, thank you. So the costs are not the big benefit then, it saves you literally a couple of euros.
The storage point is interesting though. I understand this game will not be released physically, so if the Switch 1 version functions as a key, then you should at least save some on space.
Guess we'll see and find out what is the truth. Thanks again!
Question.. I understand correctly from the comments above that you can purchase CIV VII for the Nintendo Switch 1. Use that gamecard to insert in your Switch 2 and you'll be able to download an upgrade (for free?) to get the exact same experience as the Switch 2 version?
Does this then also mean that it is possible to play the game from the game card only (saving a ton on storage space on your SD card)? Is this how it works?
I remember a roadmap for this game to tackle all the bugs and concerns for the Switch version. Do these DLC's cover these fixes, or am I confused with a different release-schedule?
Sheena has the most interesting character development for me. Interesting character to play and to follow.
Symphonia is imprinted in my nostalgic memory. A little scared too replay as I don't think it'll meet the expectations of my memory, but a game to celebrate nonetheless!
And how haven't we expressed our love for the music on Thunderhead Isles yet!? Fully agree with this article. One of the most enjoyable experiences in the game for me.
I avoided so much news about this game that I didn't even know I would need to get used to a new voice for Sonic. It caught me off guard to be honest. After hearing "puberty-sonic" for most of my life, he suddenly sounds like a full-grown adult.
First I heard about her was through Super Smash bros N64. I remember that I thought she was the character from Body Harvest N64 for some reason. Mind you, I was 7 years old at the time.
First Metroid I played was Metroid Prime on Gamecube. After that I tried mutliple games but got msot pleasure out of Metroid Dread. That game was fantastic.
I'm familiar with this streamer. Pretty sure its a response on the Super Mario Oddessey mod they have been playing recently, allowing up to 16 players to roam around together online without limitations.
In fact, it's amazing modders pull this off. A pity its so difficult to access for the rest of us, as I'm sure Nintendo does not have any plans on making any of dreams reality.
@Zeldinion pretty sure it makes a huge difference. Also took me way too long before I botgered destroying the legs. After doing this he went down after third cutscene, but before I did it seemed endless
@JohnnyC Fine, I'm on a crashed electrical-powered 4x4 stuck in a tree for this one. Looking forward to the review! continuous to ignore two hysteric screams below him and sips tea
Enjoyed the heck out of this game! Warm memories playing it as a child. Not sure if the same appeal will be there as an adult though. The mechnica of hopping between Animals was the USP I hope they expand greatly on then (yeah yeah; IF they would ever start a project on such).
Oh come on guys, clearly not a copy of Breath of the Wild. I mean I see the wolf from Twilight Princess, masks from Majora's Mask, Chamber of Sages from Ocarina of Time, Windy Hilltop from Skyward Sword. It's a celebration of the 35th anniversary coming up! 😁
Actually asked this on a different review. The answer given was in the sense of "the game doesn't even load".
Seeing that the characters move about and have their franchise behind, not to mention the 'ok' music and trailer, I think this definitely deserves a 2 at minimum based on the review!
Read the review and I am really suprised by the 6/10 score. The writing presents positivy more than negativity, I've read harsh review which concluded higher.
Either way: I am getting this. Price/quality sounds worth it to give it a real shot. I'm intrigued by the harder difficulty and I'm looking for something to scratch my Poke-itch for a while now. SWSH did not scratch it, yet it added extra itches.
Things are not going as planned for the Smash Bros team. They planned a roll-out of updates at the beginning of the year, but COVID-19 likely has forced them to change it. This update reeks of intentional character addition given the timing, but for some reaon it seems delayed.
Not willing to spend more than €25,- on it. If the price is within range then I am well open for a Pokemon-substitute. Pokemon SW/SH was my last hope for Pokemon and they missed it imo.
