@Yeaitslenn Oh, they deliver stateside! Just be prepared to wait 6-7 months with (little to) no word (French site/company, I believe) and then, BAM! Heeeeeere’s Johnny! I recently received my copy of Hardcore Mecha—after the wait and increased pricing (I feel like I payed close to $70 US), this game would have to be at least “an 8” for me to begin considering this option again.
@Jey887 I’ll agree and add Divinity: Original Sin II to “how to do it right.” The customization was fairly staggering when you begin the game (I had 1 hour invested before actually ‘starting’), so it was nice to see pre-load/build options for those (me) finding themselves oddly stressed out by such a wonderful, comprehensive feature.
Is this set in 'fictional' Colorado, or are actual places, regions and areas used? Asking for myself, a CO resident... (the latter greatly increasing the probability of purchase).
@Jaxad0127
This! Not a particular fan of Lex or Villager, but that combo was definitely a highlight for me. Other “quick” delights (that I didn’t see mentioned), for me:
Dark Samus as Venom
Mewtwo as Magneto
Bowser Jr as Green Goblin
Shiek as Electra
Falco as The Falcon
Mega Man as Cable
Wario as Deadpool
Samus as Iron Man
Diddy as Star Lord
Bulbs says as Groot (can’t unsee that one.!)
Hero as Taskmaster
Lucario as Martian Man-Hunter
Duck (Hunt?) as Cyborg
Ice Climbers as The Wonder Twins
ZSS as Catwoman
Capt Falcon as Flash
Squirtle as Momoa...er, Aquaman
Dedede as The Penguin
Snake as Deadshot
Steve as Dr. Manhattan
Aaaand...Incineroar as Lobo!
So many good ideas and themes tied together...WOW! Kudos to the artist!!
@Mr-Fuggles777 Open world games I tend to just walk around in circles and get bored if I'm under the influence. The story of the first 20-or-so hours of Breath of the Wild, for me (only it wasn't boring)! I'd inhale...and then get lost in Hyrule! sigh fond quarantine memories (yes, super late to BotW)!
@Rosona Seems a waste of time and only spreading negativity. It takes some people YEARS to come to this conclusion themselves; a shame, albeit their own free will...
Furry debate aside: that was a Monsters Inc. tag line! Ha, my son was obsessed with that movie during Quarantine (I’ve nearly memorized the thing)! Good show; cheers!
@TromaDogg
THIS! (What up, Dogg?!) Heck, maybe you'd even enjoy this 'girl's game' if you gave it a go (although I think that idea scares a few people as well).
This is the paradox: they “know” they don’t like this game, because..reasons. If they tried it and liked it, they would realize they might not know themselves as well as they think/boast. Avoiding that kind of potential identity crisis and subsequent embarrassment is likely one of the reasons they find this hobby comforting in the first place, So they puff, seethe, defend (offend?). This, for these types, is not limited to video games, unfortunately.
This game I have no intention of buying tied/beat tons of Switch games I love; like you said-sunrise, sunset.
Ask and ye shall receive...pre-LRG E3 event, at that; huzzah! Held off playing because someone just had to Phys this! July 27 is marked on my calendar, so excited-YAY!!!

@MidnightLaces Makes one wonder what you're even doing here in the first place, eh? Oh right, oceans of wine and continents of popcorn until NTDOY dies; ironically, with that diet, Vegas has YOU going first...
@milvus976578 Me and my sibs used to have a VHS of this book and we'd watch it ALL THE TIME! Probably haven't thought of this one in 25 years! Thanks for the nostalgia, never hurts to remember fondly...
@Ambassador_Kong Ah! A fellow U Man, eh? Yeah, I’ll admit: seeing ‘our’ purchase of that console rendered further into a punch line (more so than even when it was current) via Switch ports stings me in an indescribable, almost betrayal, kind of way.! I get the frustration, but, ideally, NTDOY have a couple years left to change that ‘greatest mistake.’ If not, admittedly, “I have a few hundred dollars of venting to do before I'm done,” is a great line! Cheers.
@Ambassador_Kong You are Nintendo BITTER ELITE! I'd suggest you move on from a company that so effectively boils your blood, but after reading a handful of your most recent comments, the disdain/hate relationship (obsession?) you've fostered is actually pretty comical; keep it up!!
@Silly_G Speak for yourself! Her assets have been Super Effective with me since 2010...or, you know, whenever. C-Dogg uses Bone Rush! (Shockingly) It Failed.!
Anyone else worried the combat will feature You (the main character) and ONLY You? I love a lot about what I’m seeing with this one (including a year buffer to put up more Backlog beat down), but that would be an easy negative for me. In most turn based RPGs, I prefer: 3 ally minimum, interchangeable main character, augmentable action bar, 3rd person and combat animations. The rest (regenerate health/SP after battle, real-time button interaction, “poisoned until antidoted,” no EXP if unconscious, EXP for active party members only, etc.) can be negotiated. Will keep my eyes on this one...
@rockodoodle Hmmm...let’s save that brilliant idea for F-Zero. Imagine, being able to freely cruise around futuristic cities, taking on missions, challenges and even side-quests (Travis-style, where the genre, even graphics, shifts) as Cap...or perhaps a custom-built character. GTA-like in Zero Gravity; let’s see Falcon use that pistol! C’mon, Nintendo, (continue to) make my dreams come true.!!
@tatanga Success! Ah ha ha, held off on buying this one, so this is welcome news! A lot of comments about the game are similar to yours: “not perfect, but an overall worthwhile experience.” Can’t wait to play this (next year!)!
@jcboyer515 Squeaky wheel gets the grease...right? It’s like, a ton of people who frequent this site are sustained through complaining. I, for one, love LRG, but I’m a backlog Bro living in America. Not only can I wait ‘ridiculously long’ lengths of time to receive my purchase (I.e. 3-4 months), but the shipping isn’t terrible to me, either. I’m up to 10 games so far (To the Moon and CotM 2 as my most recent), and won’t be stopping anytime soon... So there’s my worthwhile opinion on the topic; add it to the pile, ha!
YESSS!!! The price on eBay is around $90 anyway (at that’s just for a preowned, US copy), so “I’m happy” to pay similar prices for a Mint version with a couple extra goodies.
@FaroreAbhorsen
So, by that logic, would you welcome Arthur with open arms? OG Souls-like like a Motherhugger, and hey! Capcom has been supporting the Switch pretty well, lately! He also has a “new” game that just came out, which I feel is an important consideration in the application process...
@MeloMan, @Shadowthrone, @COVIDberry, @JuiceMan_V, @X-Blades, @Facelord, @Muh-ario, @GameCollector84 Top Comments: well done! My thoughts and opinions, and so much more! Like many on here, I have a 60+ backlog of games that I intend on finishing (credits roll...), and take pride in whittling it down as best I can (70% completion ain't bad!). Not judging others who jump in and out of games for their various reasons, that's just...NEVER how I roll! I read reviews, I wait for sales, I buy physical, I rarely sell; it's both a collection and a hobby, and I strive to give each of my purchases it's due (time, patience, blood, tears, sweat, etc.).
We'll stop getting ports when we stop paying for them. Just like I'll stop seeing unnecessary (bordering on pointless) Soapbox articles when I stop clicking and commenting on them...
