Been busy with company over the weekend, looking to probably play some Smash Ultimate and to continue my Metroid Prime Remastered play through. Just ordered my physical copy of Ghost Trick on PlayAsia a few moments ago, looking forward to playing that soon!
Aside from working, I plan to continue my play through of Persona 5 Royal on Switch! I was really into it right before ToTK came out and then I stopped to play that game. Now that I’ve been done with Zelda for a bit, I’ve hopped right back in. I’ve played about 15ish hours throughout the week, I’m excited to wrap up the 4th palace!
I’ve had my eyes on Dreamlight Valley for a while now, but I’m timid to take the plunge do to the eventual f2p game it will become… has anybody been enjoying it? Is it worth the $22ish it’s on sale for now or should I just wait for it to be free?
65 hours later, I can proudly say that after 80 shrines and 115+ koroks, I decided to take on Ganon in ToTK. I feel very accomplished! The hiatus from ToTK starts now!
@Matl "just because something can go up in price does not mean it should."
Can we just sit back for a second? At the end of the day, Nintendo is a business, not some fan service. If EVERYONE else is selling mainline AAA games for $70, why not them too? Of course, this is just Nintendo's first $70 game. I agree with you, there will be more games priced at $70, some of which might not be worth the price... kinda like how everyone has been expressing their grief towards the latest Mario Sports games (and those are selling for $60 rn). At the end of the day, Nintendo won't be sticking out their necks for us, and neither will any other company on the planet. It's just time to accept the pricing, and if you're not gonna buy the game, more power to you! Just don't be ruining the hype for everyone else.
The art-style change for this title is what's weird for me. It reminds me of the difference between Xenoblade and Xenoblade 2. Xenoblade has a more mature look to it, the characters resemble closely to humans, which I compare to 3H. In the Xeno 2, the whole look of it appears to be more safe and almost childish, and that's how I feel about Engage. Anyone else agree?
I'm probably still going to end up buying it cause I like FE, but still, the art is messing with me. I don't favor Colgate boy, either.
@Stnkygrngo facts! I was in high school when Spla2n came out, now I'm in college haha! I bought Splat3 but I've only been able to play a few hours and dorm wifi is terrible, so not the same experience.
As everyone is saying, Klay has got to be one of the most enjoyable players in the NBA right now. He is always living in the shadow of Curry, but is key to the Warrior's success. You never see him begging for the spotlight, he's just always low-key and does his job well. Glad to hear that Thompson is a Nintendo fan and congrats on the 6th finals appearance!
Whoever came up with this whole concept needs a raise! Such a cool way to engage with the community and knock out our backlogs together!
On that note, I'm excited to take on this challenge! I've had several playthroughs of this game but never finished it, I look forward to giving it another shot!
With the whole $50 expansion pass being out, there is definitely some hope that the GBA Expansion Pack could become a reality. Like before, nah. But now? Maybe.
It's weird that you write this at this time, I too have been wanting to play these games again, as well! Me and my bro hung out with a friend the other day and just played Wii Sports, it was great! If this game was added to switch, wow, that'd be crazy
