I think a lot of people here have too high hopes for this. They are emphasizing the studios expertise in creating assets, specifically art and animation, and will likely be focusing on helping other games.

@LightSpirit you don't need a full gaughe if you go and explore for upgrades
That's the case for a lot of the perceived difficulty. Very few instances did I run into something that was truly unfair in the game.

There is little, if anything, in that quote that suggest it is the most "ambitious" game they've made.

@ShadLink you can in a literal sense, yes. The fun thing about language is that there is a lot of implied meaning behind words and sentences.
I'm not sure if you're just failing at satire, but I'll leave it at that.

@ShadLink if you have your own system, doesn't mean you can apply that system to everyone else. Nintendo Life had their own system. They say that a good game = 7. When they give it a 7 it means they say the game is good. They don't know about your system that you invented for yourself. They can't accommodate every little weirdo's own scale of score system. They have their own, and that's what they use.

@ShadLink No, 7 is not a bad score. It sayd right next to it. "Good". Please stop with this sentiment. It's what gives gfamers reputaion of whiny.

I don't remember the last time I was tempted to get a physical version that wasn't a collector's edition or the likes. Impressive.

@KayFiOS Maybe the pile would be bigger if you just did proper research or didn't throw out unsubstantiated claims?

@LightSpirit It's you

@Tainaru so why bring it up?

That was a lot faster than I expected.

So a question for the fans: I was very interested in the series because of the world and characters developing over time, and all of those aspects, but when I played the demo I dropped out after the 15 minute intro with awful dialogue and voice acting... does it get better, or is it a long drawn out generic anime story?

@Tainaru ZA is not a GKC?

So stuff right in the middle of the frame are now "details you might have missed?"
...Okay

@metaphysician Except for when they don't have to, as evident by the pushed back release of ZA (and presumably gen X)

@Jeronan I mean, it's not like the games don't sell enough to increase the budget.

@Pillowpants Sorry, reading it again the tongue in cheekl is more apparent '^_^

@Pillowpants "Where does one find the time for that" "I have 500 hours in this other game"
I think you answered your own question there.

@johnedwin which is why they said they'll wait...

@LightSpirit and my point is that saying a game is "good" isn't being negative.

@Vyacheslav333 You must have really struggled when the 3DS launched...

@EarthboundBenjy means they can limit it per user, maybe?

@LightSpirit I don't know what to say, this article is about a review. GS called the game good. How that is putting "a damper on things" is beyond me.

@OmnitronVariant It's "content that would not have been made if it was not DLC, so hardly cut from anything.

Insert comment on how it should be animated instead

As much as I hope for Metrodi, Starfox and F-Zero stuff, they don't really have the name recognition of Zelda and Mario. It's probably going to be the rumored DK spinoff from Mario, a Zelda sequel and another Mario movie. If we're lucky, maybe an Animal Crossing. I recon even Splatoon has a better chance than their old sci fi series.

@bosh if we are going to go that anecdotal: I know more people with a switch 2, than I knew had a Switch 1 6 months in.

@LightSpirit oh nooo, they called a game "good." Such party poopers?

@vanmunt enjoy! I sure did

It's the same every new generation. The people who loved whatever they grew up with, hate the new stuff. I've personally seen it ever since gen 3(gen 2 seem to get some slack for being the immediate sequels, and not yet "being a part of the pattern). "It's repetetive," "the new designs are horrible," "it's RPGs for kids" have been repeated for every generation since.
To me, the only right out bad games were Sword and Shield. It had no imagination whatsoever, story did not make sense at all and trying to make kaiju Pokemon was just a bad mechanic. And saying that Arceus tried something new, but not ZA is straight up dumb.

This is a friendly reminder that Phil Spencer in an internal email stated taht it would be in Nintendo's best interest to be bought by Microsoft.

@JohnnyMind Honestly, the first time I played the game, it was a half pipe that made me give up. I was also very young, but it felt very different from teh rest of teh game in that it didn't immediately click.

@johnedwin That's not how it works. That's not how any of this works. There are far more factors at play. Time release, the general consumer economy, how Switch 2 install base, the age of the OG Switch...

I was looking forward to this as a cozy Christmas game. Oh well, I guess I'll spend it with Samus instead.

@Nambit
...why? It's patch notes. It is a very self explanatory concept.

@Clammy by this time Switch 1 had Zelda, Arms, 1-2 Switch and an old Mario Kart(sold at full price that people now suddenly dislike).
The line ups are not too disimilar.

@Anti-Matter I guess this is the proof that every Pokemon is someone's favorite.

@Yoshi3 is a marketing company first and foremost.

@Unit_DTH I mean, you're in an article about a life sim game just to announce that you don't like them. That is pretty weird.

@DominionGamma imagine missing a joke this hard

@Aeralto or a lot of people just enjoy a challenge? Is that so hard to believe?

@SpaceboyScreams I get what you mean. I'm surprised the number was that high at all.

@johnedwin trolling? What are you talking about? This is a list of physical sales.

@SpaceboyScreams almost no one on PC buys physical.

@OneArmedGiant 2077 got delisted by PS. Pretending Outlaws was in a remotely similar state is disingenuous at best.

@Athropos well, they fixed a framerate issue relating to mirrors, so there's that I guess.

@garfreek it comes back once you resubscribe. I did ths, jus tlike you, right before this deal came.

@Expa0 Lego has quality and doesn't use slave labor. You get what you pay for.

@johnedwin yet you are comparing the physical edition to Hollow Knight to the digital edition of Silksong. Most people Do not buy Hollow Knight physically.

@Axecon So I know this may surprise you, but Silksong was revealed a long time ago.

@Anti-Matter This is for multiplayer competition. It has always been presented as such. It's good to pull that to a standalone game so that that you don't need the main games to play in tournaments.
