Re: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Cloud Save Support Coming "Sometime In The Future"

Desa

@frogopus Yeah, I already know a lot of people will plan on doing that. Me though I like to be honest and going out of my way to lie just to retrieve data I should be able to do myself as I could with the 3DS still leaves me with a sour taste in my mouth. I don't want to be a liar just because while the ability obviously will exist in some way, shape or form, they don't want it to be broadly used.

Re: Rumour: You Might Not Be Able To Transfer Animal Crossing: New Horizons Save Data To Another Switch

Desa

Um...that's not ok. Overall Animal Crossing is a game very many, including myself, can invest hours into. New Leaf for me has over a 1000 and I have switched that data across different 3ds models over the years. If the Switch doesn't allow such a move where perhaps your switch has just worn down or you want to switch your data to a pro model if that happens down the line, with no cloud saves in place it really is a royally messed up case with very little reason for it. I'd much rather have my time and energy invested in the game safe over whatever excuse for a reason they have for potentially not even allowing data transfers as a possibility.

Re: There Are "No Plans" To Bring The Full Pokédex To Pokémon Sword And Shield, And Future Games Will Follow Suit

Desa

We finally get a mainline title for a home console and most of the beloved Pokemon we grew to know and love won't ever be on it. I just don't believe that they couldn't have added all the Pokemon for the first home console release. The switch is definitely more powerful than the 3ds and it would have been nice to have at least one game with every Pokemon available on a home console. There are some that say I shouldn't be disappointed, but with newer and better hardware the things they could have done to make catching them all for at least one last game would have been really exciting on the Switch. I can't hide that I am disappointed that it will never happen for a home console apparently.

Re: Ninja Thinks Pro Players And Streamers Who Cheat Should Be Treated Differently

@Ralek85
If the rules created by the developers are there in place, I feel as if the ones trying to make a living off of them should at least know that much and adhere to them even more. As someone else pointed out, they are in the limelight, and if a viewer of their content finds out they are cheating, it could destroy the whole reason those rules were there in the first place, with a lot complaining well I saw my favorite streamer doing it so how come nothing happened to them?

There is no reason why content creators should be above that because the developers saw a need for those rules in the first place to make sure every player has fun =equally= the same way. It's just not fair to anyone if, just because you profit more than I do, and I decide to do the same, I get subjected to the developers ban, but not the person who was doing it just because it's their profession. If they don't know enough to try to make content that's under the same rules as the ones watching their content, I don't see why anything should be bended for them, and I watch a lot of YouTube. It's more I believe fair is square and beneficial for the overall gaming community.

Re: Video: Ever Wondered What An 8-Bit Ni no Kuni Would Look Like?

I also think that one bad review shot the game selling well on the switch in the foot too. A good reputation can so easily be turned to ash with just one ember. Plus, the other systems got remastered editions. If you own more than the switch, you might have just opted for that if the review made you wary, or if you prefer graphics over portability.

I am enjoying the game on switch. It's fun and the characters are indeed charming. Can't believe I went this long without playing it.

Re: Bloodstained Switch Updates Expected To Launch By The End Of November

Desa

There should definitely be some sort of consequence to releasing games this way. Consumers pay money out of their hard earned pay checks to support developers, but in kind, developers should think more about the final product they release. Updates this far out should mean this title should have been delayed at the least. Nobody would want a brand new pair of shoes that had the seems fall apart as soon as they put them on, same with a video game. Quality should be a standard, not an eventuality.

Re: Talking Point: With Overwatch Apparently Switch-Bound, The Future's Bright For Blizzard And Nintendo

@YourGoodFriendly
While I get what you're saying, I'm part of a userbase that hasn't played this game yet. Yes, I know my switch can go full on portable. I switch up my gaming habits depending on the game I'm playing. All I'm saying is that there can be an audience for this game even if it's not for you and that's fine. If I were to buy this game I would only play it docked, while connected to my TV the same way one would on PS4. Just because I can't play this game in every way that is versatile to the system doesn't mean there won't ever come a time for me to play it. That's the beauty of our little system, and if a game truly doesn't suit your way of play that's fine, but it doesnt mean others, who may not own other ways to play, won't be interested.

@YourGoodFriendly
If this game is actually coming to switch, I don't see why that argument would hold any water. If the Switch is the only method of play you have, or if maybe you're a person that doesn't even own a different system which can play this game, then this is the demographic they are shooting for. Personally, I'd just play this game docked at home because I'm interested in trying this game out personally, and I would just play something else when I want to go out and about.

Re: Super Mega Baseball 2 Aims For A Home Run On Switch Next Week

Desa

Well, I'll be. One of my work mates keeps asking me if I have a baseball game for my switch and I didn't want to break down and buy the RBI games just yet. Most likely this will definitely be my first baseball related game on switch. Seems pretty solid if it does transition well to the console.

It's not about thinking we know better. It's about the developers taking out core assets that make the game truly what it is in favor of a literal gimmick. As you've said, there are people who are going to be okay with it, and that's fine, but that doesn't mean that those who aren't happy with the decision should sit back and say nothing at all. For one this is a forum, we can be as vocal as we wish, and on top of that, suffering in silence isn't the way to help the community grow. Having opinions isn't supposed to simply be divisive, and I don't think this is one that is controversial. Game Freak has been slowly dropping the ball for years, and it's getting worse. Once we start conforming in favor of just going with the flow, we lose our chance to make sure we get actually finished games with completed content. Our voices should matter.

@johnvboy Sometimes the fans know the core audience better than the developers. You don't always need to go so far outside of the box to find success. Just look back at all the previous mechanics that everyone loved. I can't believe that the first game on the switch wouldn't have the processing power to house all current Pokemon, but the 3ds could. I'm sure everyone would agree that the 3ds was lower tier hardware, but yet, all 800+ Pokemon was always available within the games. Sure down the line I can see there being too many, but I doubt another 50 or so Pokemon added into the game is pushing the hardware to the max. Of course fans would be mad, each Pokemon had it's place within the game. Heck, the whole literal point of the game is to catch them all! It's not an extreme reaction to feel slighted.

I can get why people would be upset over this. When you consider fan made projects that incorporated different design ideas that work for the series, it's surprising that Gamefreak would think removal of Pokemon in lay of a new gimmick was the right way to go. Keep what works and improve on what doesn't. Go over series best and reincorporate that into the game. Instead we lose some troops, and are expected to be ok with it for the new game play mechanics that probably won't be there come the next generation. I'm definitely not as hyped as I could have been. Just give me an iincreased difficulty function like random trainers with six Pokemon or something. Lol
