F2P? So loaded with micro transaction crap? No thanks I'll pass! I don't care how good it may be, but I hate MT's and will never support them so I won't touch this game! I'd rather pay for a game and not be gimped if I don't break my bank for MT's.
I don't like Ubisofts way with AC Odyssey but still was better than any F2P games setup. I never touched an MT in Odyssey and was just fine.
As for the hate because of the graphics, I don't care cuz I liked how botw looked and if others wanna go the same route then great, I enjoyed botw for its art style and visuals overall so I'm looking forward to Immortals Phoenix Rising. Was with this till I now realized its F2P unfortunately.
This is one of many reasons I don't buy EA games anymore. They seem to just hate Nintendo and of course their ruining of the Mass Effect and Dragon Age games. Still good but each series got worse by the 3rd. Then of course their ridiculous greed and worst monetization in the industry so I may have actually paid for this and finally bought something EA after 10 or so years of not buying their games but guess they still don't want my money.
@TheFullAndy Ya I totally get it, we all gotta vent sometimes lol. I saw the comments and had to agree with you even though the thread has been hijacked.
Those who deny the frame rate issues are just fooling themselves because those frame rate drops should NOT have ever made it to release and more-so as you said, has not been addressed by Nintendo makes it all the more disappointing. Loved the game but Nintendo could have, and should have, done better/
@TheFullAndy I agree with you. I did enjoy the game and beat it when it released but those drops were very annoying and frequent. I've seen worse but it is a disappointment being a first-party game (and a Zelda game at that!).
@retro_player_77 where did anyone say it can't run on PS4? They said it's being cancelled on PS4 and XB One and going straight to next-Gen. It has nothing to do with not being able to run on the PS4 but rather not supporting on 6 platforms and only on 4 instead since XB One and PS4 are soon to have successors on the market so why release on those 2?
You need to pay attention to the article and what was written.
Saw this back on Kickstarter when it first showed up but I have the Skull & Co dock that works great. Nor as small as this but it's very compact and allows my Switch to be docked on display, it stuck laying flat.
May get this for travel down the road but no rush for me since the one I have is still nice and portable.
Prices go higher then I'm done with gaming! Prices are already too high when you add in the scam micro-transactions or unfinished games that then charge for dlc or features that should have been part of the main purchase.
I hate this direction gaming has gone but if prices go up then these scams better end otherwise I'm done with gaming and I'm sure I'm not alone on that.
I hope they stick to this hybrid model they did so right with the Switch! I love my Switch (and play mostly handheld) and love that I'm no longer tied to a tv or strictly a small screen portable and split between which to play. I always neglected portables more that way but now it's perfect!
I've always been a Nintendo and PC player while I did enjoy Xbox 360 and PS4 I now don't care for consoles other than Switch. I'm PC and Nintendo player now (as long as Nintendo keeps doing the hybrid thing following the Switch then I'll keep buying Nintendo as my only console).
Getting beyond pissed off, it's now July and I have yet to see a single effing scorpion on my island and I play daily every evening. I've even used at least 30 nmt and half those was the same island with the swirl and rest were a mix but all with split tiers and no scorpion/tarantula island.
This nerf was effing ridiculous! F U Nintendo and your stupid nerfs ruining it for the majority of players due to the small minority who cheat/time travel!
Great news! I was fine with Mario Run and I tree s one-time purchase and Dragalia Lost was fun, Animal Crossing was too but I HATE micro-transactions then came Fire Emblem with ridiculous MT'S (IMO) and the Mario Kart with its ridiculously overpriced subscription BS, that then ruined and made its way to F.E. and A.C. so this news has put a huge smile on my face!
They just got too greedy, so all Nintendo games got uninstalled from my phone and I wished for this day too come!
Most mobile games in general do not get my attention anymore as too many MT'S with paywalls and/or P2W mechanics that I refuse to ever support or stupid gambling loot boxes which are the worst of all additions into the gaming industry.
Be nice if I could download this update. Been trying for 2 hours randomly and always says server is undergoing maintenance but when I check the network status Nintendo shows no issues. Bunch of idiots!
Now they need to add folders ffs. This is a start but come on Nintendo, stop lagging behind on basic features!
I'll buy this for pc on release but if they make and pull off a Switch port I'll buy it as well.
I originally played Witcher 3 on my PS4 then when I got a new pc I got the pc version and am now playing through the Switch version.
CDPR makes great games and I'll support them all I can and especially buy a Switch copy regardless if I already own a PC copy of this game (but only make it if it will run at steady 30fps otherwise I say don't worry about it).
I own a PS4 and barely touch it. Never bought the Xbox One. I have zero plans to buy either PS5 or Xbox Series X.
I play mostly PC and my Switch and was always a PC and Nintendo game at heart but always owned all consoles but now it's PC and Nintendo for me since my pc does everything the other consoles do anyways.
The joke aside, their is NO excuse for piss poor ports of games like this and of this age. The Witcher 3 is proof that tons of Devs are making lazy garbage ports and they should all be ashamed of themselves.
So many let downs (wrc 8, bloodstained, ac3 remaster, neverwinter nights, etc. just to name a few but apparently ac3 and bloodstained have been updates and improved I think but still ridiculous all the bad ports when Witcher 3 can run and decently too. Oh well, lazy Devs don't get my money.
I played Witcher 3 and all dlc on ps4 at launch and love this game. Bought it on sale on pc once I had a new computer that could run it then heard of the Switch port so I waited on doing a full second play through on my pc. Glad I waited as I love this on my Switch!
They did an amazing job porting this game. This is proof the Switch is a very capable system and bad ports so far now have no excuse for being poorly made (Saints Row is one that comes to mind, Bloodstained I heard was bad too and so on).
Also, all of this on cartridge without having to download half the game is also amazing. CDPR respects gamers and their supporters and I'm glad I got it. I don't regret at all owning 3 copies of this game (ps4, pc and Switch) lol.
Bunch of cry baby losers! They love their exclusives that don't arrive on Switch but then cry like little b***hes when Switch gets an exclusive? It doesn't work like that door knobs! Every console has its exclusives. Want them all then get all consoles otherwise stop being cry babies and review bombing a game because it's not on your chosen console. GET A LIFE LOSERS!
It's this kind of BS mentality they have on top of other reasons (the insane level of greed and shady practices) why I've stopped supporting EA many many years ago and this just strengthens that!
Properly support Switch and people will buy your games on Switch but these half-a$$ed ports and "legacy editions" just piss people off!
Most Switch owners would prefer to play portable full versions of your games, not these so-called legacy edition crap.
