Re: Rumour: Another Bethesda Game Is Landing On Switch 2, It's Claimed

BrokenCiv

@BaldB3lper78 COD is a joke these days. It’s so busy trying to compete with Fortnite and have all these crossovers with characters that don’t belong like Beavis and Butthead and Nicki Minaj that it’s completely lost sight of the actual wars the games were based on, the soldiers who fought in those wars, the sacrifices they made, the honor and valor and the history that made the earlier games great.

Re: Nintendo Sends Out Second Game-Key Card & Physical Game Survey

BrokenCiv

@FredBiletnikoff my comment was just to say my very old tech is still working. I don’t agree with neither comment from you or the other person. 🤪. My Commodore 64, my various forms of Atari consoles, ColecoVision still works perfectly too. Tech will last as long as you take care of it. Further, if it ever stops working it can be fixed.

Re: Best Lord Of The Rings Games, Ranked - Switch And Nintendo Systems

BrokenCiv

@Dman10 Steam Deck is pretty “console-ish” if you ask me but my comment wasn’t to say “we don’t need it on Switch 2”. I was simply correcting the statement in the article giving the impression that PS4 and Xbox was the only place to play it currently. I was just pointing out that Steam Deck is a great current option to play it on the go.

Re: Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection Gets Proper Physical Release On Switch 2

BrokenCiv

AAAAaaaaaaaand INSTANT BUY!!!! Honestly I was going to purchase this already because I was a professional competitor back in the day in the arcade tournaments but man, even if I wasn't a fan I would still buy this because they have the professional courtesy and consumer respect of putting the whole thing on the ******* cart. TAKE NOTE THIRD PARTIES!

@kal_el_07241 it didn't fit their theme of "game keycards"...

Re: Octopath 0 Is A Game-Key Card On Switch 2, And Square Enix Has "No Plans" For A Switch 1 Upgrade Option

BrokenCiv

This console gen for Nintendo hasn't been very exciting strictly because of the keycard BS. They won't be getting my money. I have been very selective about the games I'm getting thus far and I don't see that changing. Before this I would buy up anything I was remotely interested in. They are shooting themselves in the foot and honestly, I couldn't care less because its more than obvious they don't care about the consumer.

Re: Mini Review: WaterField Designs Magnetic Case For Switch 2 - Simple, But Brilliant

BrokenCiv

Personally I would never spend that amount on a case with minimum protection. Alternatively there’s a soft case by Onn for like $12 or so (obviously at Walmart since Onn is only sold there…it’s their brand actually) that is pretty good if all you’re looking to do is to protect it from scratches or dings inside your backpack.

Re: Donkey Kong Bananza Gets Short Clip Celebrating Three Days Until Launch

BrokenCiv

I’m still neck deep in No Man’s Sky. I have been playing on Steam/PC but decided to start a new save on Switch 2. I’ve completed the Atlas Path, I have two settlements almost completely improved, a number of bases, 2 other exotic starships, and a class A freighter. This game is so different from the one that originally released in 2016. I might pick up DK eventually. Might.

Re: Donkey Kong Bananza Director Acknowledges Performance Drops: "We Prioritized Fun And Playability"

BrokenCiv

@Ultimapunch actually a quick Google search and the plethora of results stating otherwise will show you’re a little misguided on Mario being more well known than Mickey Mouse. Perhaps more recognizable to children but that’s about it (and that poll was conducted in 1990 so it’s probably not relevant any longer especially with the many Disney Jr shows in the past 15 - 20 years like Mickey Mouse Clubhouse). I don’t like it either but facts are facts.

Re: Donkey Kong Bananza Director Acknowledges Performance Drops: "We Prioritized Fun And Playability"

BrokenCiv

No excuses. This is a first party game on a brand new system. It’s suppose to be a showcase title especially being it only the second “real” first party title released. I say “real” because I discount the other first party games with “upgrades”. We shouldn’t be talking about perforce drops to prioritize “fun”. It just straight up laziness no matter which way you slice it. I haven’t been impressed with Nintendo’s offerings on Switch 2 just yet. I’m sure Prime 4 will break that chain though given Retro is developing it. Nintendo has been getting lazy lately. I’m absolutely done shilling for them.

Re: iFixit Performs A Full Teardown Of Nintendo's "P**s-Poor" Pro Controller

BrokenCiv

I’ve used my Switch 2 pro controller probably for about 20 hours so I don’t think I’ve play tested it enough to have a formulated opinion about its long term durability. However I’m not about to sit here and sing its praises just because it “feels nice”. I do think it’s pretty crappy though that Nintendo made it so hard to get into the controller. They obviously did it because they would just rather you throw down another almost $100 for a new controller because that is how Nintendo is now….they aren’t for the consumer any longer they are now for themselves and how much money they can make off of you. This is what happens when you put a businessman in charge rather than someone that actually relates to their customers like Iwata did.

@jobvd Actually they have some really great products and I’m glad there’s companies out there like this.

I had a feeling that told me to stay away from this game even having enjoyed the earlier games. Glad I did.

Re: Random: Of Course Helldivers Are Now Calling For A Switch 2 Port

BrokenCiv

@nhSnork actually, playing it on my Deck is quite friendly. Only difference I would imagine between it and Switch 2 would be the Deck has more of a grip for better comfort. Still, I prefer it on my PC for the best experience but would I double dip to have it on Switch 2? Yes, yes I would and I have absolutely no valid reason why.

Re: My Nintendo Store Adds A New Mario Kart World Reward (North America)

BrokenCiv

Yes! A mediocre “reward” for a mediocre game.

Honestly though I've never gotten anything actually "worth it" from My Nintendo points other than some Mario themed hanafuda cards. That was back when shipping was free too. These days they charge you for shipping and the products are so cheaply made its almost like you're still paying for the actual product due to shipping being so high.
