Re: Review: Octopath Traveler 0 (Switch 2) - A Bit Of A Retread, But Unmissable (And Enormous)

Dark-Luigi

So, so happy to see it scored well. The Ocotpath games have always had a special place in my heart. They always impress me with their great gameplay, appealing art style, and gives me just enough story and characters to make me care.

I'm more than ok with the 100 hours thing, too. Considering that it's 1) a JRPG, no duh it's gonna be long. I've played many that are just as long, if not longer. And 2) for $50, I'd be more than happy to pay compared to +$70 games that I'll finish in a weekend.

Can't wait for tomorrow.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Kirby Air Riders?

9/10.

No, I don't care if it's niche. So what if it is? This is one of the most polished, engaging, deep, memorable, and content-rich multiplayer games I've ever experienced. No amount of questioning why this game exists or naysayers are gonna sway me from that. If anything, I wouldn't be surprised if this game ends up becoming one of Nintendo's biggest sleeper hits as time goes on.

Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Kirby Air Riders

Glad it did well, and no, I'm not upset that it's somewhat divisive. Any game that is doing something unique and different is way more interesting to me than the been-there-done-that ones that are predictable and safe. Decisive games aren't the same as actual bad games. If the gameplay doesn't jive with you, play something else. It's not the game's fault.

Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Kirby Air Riders?

Dark-Luigi

I was already on board from the very start. I've played the hell out of the original and it makes me so happy to see a game that originally released on Nintendo's worst selling console get a second chance on one of their better selling ones.

Don't know why some people think that there's some weird catch for this game existing, but whatever.

Re: Images Of Yoshi From 'The Super Mario Galaxy Movie' Have Leaked Online

@N00BiSH @Nintoz @PeterTomlan86 I 100% agree. Parroting all of your words, Galaxy is one of the most significant, meaningful, and special games in the entire Mario franchise, if not the most. It was a game that gave us unforgettable moments that we all still remember even to this day, had us go through amazingly crafted levels, gave us a fantastic soundtrack that graced our ears, and had moments of tact and silence. So the fact that Illumination of all things has its grubby hands on this shakes me to my core. It's the one game that they cannot mess up.

Granted, I'm not gonna write this off immediately since we obviously haven't seen anything yet and Nintendo always cracks the whip, but I really hope they don't do something like make Rosalina overly goofy or something.

Re: Metroid Prime 4's Sweet New Trailer Builds The Hype For Next Month's Launch

Air Riders getting two Directs was a good idea because it showed the many modes and content in that game. Moreover, Sakurai and his team are behind it, not Retro Studios. Whatever advertising is going on with that game has no bearing on this one—literally none.

Hell, I'm willing to bet we get an overview trailer for this one in the next few weeks or so.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Pokémon Legends: Z-A?

Dark-Luigi

8/10.

Yeah, the graphics aren't the best, the game could really benefit from voice acting, and there are a few things that could have been improved. Despite all this, I don't hate the game. In fact, and I can't believe I'm saying this, but it might be the best Pokémon game I've played on the Switches. Whether that's a low bar to clear or not, I can't say for sure, but it’s definitely less awkward than Scarlet and Violet, and it doesn’t feel as dreadful to play like Sword and Shield.

Re: Anniversary: Celebrate Unova As Pokémon Black & White Turns 15

It's still the best game in the series—no, the best game ever made by this company. Especially the sequel, which had everything I could've wanted. Story, characters, music, the 'mon designs, the extra content, the locations, the unique battles, the graphics... the game was just oozing with charm. Man, to be young again.

I would kill for a remake, but after the Diamond and Pearl remakes, maybe not.
