Re: A Popular VGC Pokémon Could Be Returning In Sword And Shield's Expansion

@PBandSmelly Yeah competitive on 3DS was such a bore facing the same sets over and over. Most of em highly unoriginal Smogon sets which is far too limited and dull.

Could have had rotations on who could be used, say every 2 months and problem solved. Would require people to actually think differently for once. TCG I think(?) does something similar with only certain sets useable.

Never bothered with Amoongus myself, while I was competitive for a time never saw benefit to it.

I really don't get the NA one, banjo? If I saw that in the shop I think I'd just skip it as I usually tend to go with the mindset that the cover does represent the game content and that ain't enticing to me personally.

Japan and Europe kinda equal though giving to Europe as black border looks better that white.

@JimmySpades Because that character is biologically a man, therefore not a real woman (or woman in any circumstance), don't really know how you can argue against the facts but you keep trying.

Calling me a bigot is funny, you know nothing about me and base it one one logical comment. I actually identify as a tankard of beer so am certainly for the cause of people being what they truly feel they are.

@garfreek While I don't go for them a quick look around gives me this, the daddy thing, sweet pool, Togainu no Chi Lost Blood releasing soon, A Kiss For The Petals Maidens of Michael, Flowers, Yumeutsutsu and more. Haven't limited to purely Switch releases only cause I don't think it's particularly fair in the discussion.

Your example would make sense if the majority of the world was gay but it ain't, being gay, bi or whatever is the overwhelming minority and as such ain't nowt wrong with it being equally represented in games.

Re: 3D Realms' Ion Fury Brings Old-School FPS To Switch Next Month

Already got the game pre-ordered.

Sadly knew some of the usual people would bring up the 'controversial' comments. Like 99.9% of people I don't care if they hate the trans people or not they aren't a special group who should get special treatment, everyone can be mocked. The hate mob at ReeeeeeeesetEra are the one's who blew it up anyway. Anything that cesspit doesn't like it makes it a winner!

@johnvboy Well it came across as you did.

People post negatively in this case because they see a game they had a underwhelming or bad time with getting praise, winning awards and to them it is baffling. It doesn't affect them personally no but it doesn't need to. I personally don't go into something I don't care for but each to their own.

I'd say going from comments alone this site is far more positive than negative. Only times I see negativity is really divisive games (like this) or when NL messes up with a shockingly bad agenda driven review (sadly too often).

@Anti-Matter Yes that was fairly obvious, I just don't see the point of replying to someone who did not enjoy it, bringing up irrelevant factors to try and put them down which is what I got from their replies.

I get that the game got a lot of hate prior to release and still now ( most justified imo) but on these comments it was just simple bewilderment it won an award or two.

Some of those categories are baffling, Best Rookie Game? None of those 3 nominees match that descriptor. All from seasoned developers.

No DQ11S in the RPG category? Why?

Persona 5 Royal winning best music, yeah can't complain there.

Not surprised Pokemon S&S won it's categories. It may be a higher res 3DS game with little effort put in but it was hugely successful in sales can think of few with a bigger status last year. Most videogame awards are similar no matter which country does it with baffling omissions and winners .

Re: Yooka-Laylee Is Now Three Years Old

BeautyandtheBeer

Adored this game, easily my fave 3d platformer since Sunshine way back. Too many fun moments to choose but the best was finding the last quill in Capital Cashino and thus the last pagie 100% completing it. Weirdly not got around to Impossible Lair.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl #37 - Resident Evil 3: Nemesis

BeautyandtheBeer

I do love how the North American one has crazy different fonts, gets my vote because of it.

Japan is the worst since Nemesis is not centered and (to me at least) seems to blend into the building too much making it look a bit off while Europe one is midway between being just okay.
