Good for Nintendo, hope they learn from this and take better care of one of it's bigges franchises. Legit question: can the game be fixed using updates or it needs something else?
I used to play Age of Empires and Mythology, I wonder if this plays similarly because so far looks really good to have in the Switch. I'll keep an eye on this one, looks very interesting.
@Rayquaza2510 they demand the game comes out before their anime and merch? That sucks, and it's one of the biggest problems in their pipeline, sooner or later GF wouldn't be able to deliver a quality product.
I really hope Pokemon fans make their voices heard, they deserve better than this, maybe an update will fix some of these problems, we'll see.
They could have waited a whole year to really polish the game, I would even give free Pokemon DLC to Arceus while they wait, everybody would love it and you keep the hype high. The fact that Arceus looks better than S/V is very telling of how rushed the game was.
Ugh, I was going to buy this one, but now FE: Three Houses has a discount, and I haven't played that one. And both Atelier Ryza games are at a 50% discount too.
Those three look really fun to play against, and their armors look amazing too, I'll definitely add them to the collection. Hopefully, we'll get another elder dragon, but one of the big ones, like Dalamadur or Gogmazios.
While it would have been awesome to see the original starters back in his team, it's awesome that he did it with a Dragonite and a Gengar, two of my favorite pokemon.
I plan to get back, but seriously, so many good games have come out recently, it's hard to keep up with the already increasing backlog, new games, and AC. But I'll definitely get back to check on my island friends.
Ok so this is an american football mixed with strategy games, right? I would actually have to play this game before buying it, I love the gameplay of Mutant Football League because is more hands on, but who knows, maybe I'll like this one too.
Nintendo is way past the console wars, he's on his own path. Sure they improve their graphics and power, but their main focus is in gameplay, how they can improve or change the way people play videogames. Sure they'll miss a lot of franchises that you can only run in more powerful consoles, but companies have found ways to adjust there games to Nintendo's consoles. And sure not all franchises come to Nintendo hardware, but Nintendo games don't go to other consoles, so I think it's a fair trade.
Does it have a demo available? I prefer to check how it plays before paying for it, I haven't played a cloud game before, and since I don't have another console, if it's playable, I'll buy it.
Edited because I just finished reading the whole article where it clearly says there is a demo available hehe.
This looks so good, and I wanted to jump on the franchise as I havent played any of her games, but just got Persona 5 and Tactics Ogre is coming in a couple of weeks, so yeah, definitely I'll get it next year.
@Waka_the_Prophet Right there with you man, truly so sickening how people don't give a damn about artists, they just want to consume faster and cheaper, it doesn't matter if it's ethical or not, hopefully later on there will be restrictions to these sites that allow us to exclude our work. Because let's be honest, if they didn't have access to artists' work, they wouldn't even bother with any AI software. And I find it so amazing that they continue to call themselves artists, it's like saying I'm a chef just because I went to have dinner and asked my waiter that my steak should be medium rare.
As a concept artist for animation, I find it so disappointing how this tool is being used, but most of all, the zero respect that artists working in animation, concept art, video games, illustration, and publishing are currently getting. Skills as an artist don't come as easy as people would think, it takes years of practice, constant development and learning, and personal experience so each person can create their own voice. And to know that now people are using a tool, feeding it images from our personal websites (be it artstation, deviantart, and so on) just to emulate our work, sometimes just for sake of doing it. Many artists will lose their jobs, as people will prefer to pay a simple subscription to an AI website and create images that look like certain illustrators, then pay the illustrator they try to emulate. A lot of small-medium artists will be affected by this too, as now the small jobs that once worked for beginners in this work area, will now be offered to whoever can emulate artists better. Sure, people are using these Ai tools to experiment, to create, and that's great, everybody should use tools to create art, but use them to steal the identity of artists and claim it as their own, that's just sickening. And it only happens with visual media, there are AI tools for music too, but of course, they only use royalty-free music, after all, they don't want the music industry to sue them. What is more saddening of this, is the low respect that artists are getting, people just don't care about artists anymore, they just want art that is very cheap, fast, and in the style they want. They don't care that artists keep constantly learning to develop their skills, that a lot of them are underpaid and sometimes have two jobs, to be able to keep producing as an artist.
@SalvorHardin I kind of like certain aspects of what I saw, for example sneaking around the corners looks interesting, but it kind of looks like the action will be toned down. I hope they find a way to keep the action but with more scary atmosphere.
@Polvasti Currently I'm in Mexico, in the coming months I'll go back to Prague. And yeah, you're right about the consumer legislation. Guess I'll have the game for really cheap then. Thanks!
Ok, here is an honest question, what happens if the game in my Nintendo e-shop has a price of like 1 dollar? Can I buy it at that price? I'm asking cause in the Mexican store it has that price right now, and I wonder if I buy it now at that price, if Nintendo corrects the price I'll get charged later on.
Disney has been doing movies to redeem their evil characters for a while, we already had Maleficent and Cruella in their own movies, or Cinderella's stepmother giving reasoning of why she hated the titular character. And even before them, there was a third animated Cinderella movie where they redeemed one of the stepsisters, so I guess doing it on video games doesn't sound as crazy as before.
Man, that was tough, there so many great choices, some even iconic. I do find curious that nobody mentioned the Super Mario Bros theme, you know, from the NES game, the theme that is going to be on everybody's mind next year with the movie release.
Videogames music is just an extension of my musical preferences. They may not be the only thing I hear, but they are featured in my playlists, like Zelda Symphony of the Goddesses, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqM_GArNP1w

An unusual pose for Mario and Peach but ok, nothing that makes it bad. I think DK's head looks smaller than what it looks like in the trailer.

They could have waited a whole year to really polish the game, I would even give free Pokemon DLC to Arceus while they wait, everybody would love it and you keep the hype high.
The fact that Arceus looks better than S/V is very telling of how rushed the game was.
