Re: Poll: What Did You Think Of Yesterday's Nintendo Direct?

Judal27

A bunch of dlc, announcements of announcements, a few decades old roms locked behind a sub but now you pay more, time wasted on a movie instead of a game, and a Bayonetta that doesn't seem to lose her clothes when using wicked weaves. It was pretty boring

Kirby was the main thing for me. A 3D Kirby always seemed like a great idea, and I'd spend so much time running around the city in Air Ride thinking how fun a game like that would be. Hoping it turns out great, and that bayo looking like her kid self explains the funny makeup and costume as well as her wicked weaves

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 14th)

Judal27

I caved and bought Skyward Sword. Really wanted a new and actually good 3d Zelda again since it's been a long while since Twilight Princess came out

And aside from the obnoxious controls and ugly noses and mouths everyone got from this "HD" relift, it's been so much fun to play through. What I'd give to have another proper Zelda again built for the switch, instead we're getting empty open world game #89

Re: Memory Pak: When Mario Became A Pro Wrestler And Ruled At It

Judal27

Loved this chapter so much. Every time i replayed the game, this chapter was the one i looked forward to the most alongside the express train one. And part of it is definitely because of the writing and the charismatic characters

It's extremely depressing to think we're likely never getting another good paper mario ever again

Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Delivered An Excellent E3 Direct For Fans Old And New

Judal27

I just saw the actual trailer for advance wars and damn that was just really meh. They bring back a dormant series by just remaking the same games but with an ugly coat of paint that makes them look like mobile games? I would've just preferred a collection if that was all, but surely it deserves a bit better

I don't even want to think of what they'd do if they ever decide to revive golden sun...

Re: Poll: What Did You Think Of Nintendo Direct At E3 2021?

Judal27

Didn't watch it like some of the other livestreams but from what I'm seeing announced. Smtv was the only thing that had me excited, while metroid and advance wars piqued my interest a bit. Botw looks boring so far, and the rest i didn't care for or are just ports of games i already own. Sad that monolith is still gonna be silent for a while longer i guess

Idk whether from software saved e3 with elden ring or atlus with smtv, but it really was one of the worst e3s overall

Re: Talking Point: E3 Leaks Are Inevitable, But Do You Actually Want To Know?

Judal27

I don't actively look for leaks but i don't care if I come across a very believable one. Never understood why people consider that a spoiler. If you find out about a game reveal early, then get excited early and look forward to the inevitable trailer? Whether you watch an accidental early released trailer or watch it at the intended time, what's the difference? You're still watching the exact same thing

Re: Rumour: Sonic's New Game Might Be An Open-World Adventure

Judal27

As infamous as 06 was, I still had fun running around that open world with all the different unlockable abilities despite being pretty empty. And Adventure 1's open areas were a ton of fun with all the little things and power ups to discover

Sonic definitely has potential in making a great open world. So I'm hoping this is the one they succeed in if the rumor is true

Re: Talking Point: When Was The Last Time A Game Cracked Your Top Five?

Judal27

At this point, I don't even know if i have a top 5. I play so many and end up falling in love with almost each one so much that i start to think it's the best game ever. Until the next best game ever comes along which for me is currently Nier Replicant

I'll always remember the gamecube era of Ninty games very fondly though especially paper mario and the 2 zeldas

Re: Talking Point: Do You Miss Instruction Manuals?

Judal27

I miss the ones that mainly just had artwork and character/story/items info. It was a neat little extra. But at this point, the internet delivers that and more anyway

Back when they were around tho, as an actual manual, i probably used it maybe twice or 3 times for menus or mechanics i forgot about

Re: Multiple Parties Reportedly Interested In Buying Square Enix

Judal27

Assuming it's one of the big three and buying them means their ips become exclusive, I'd hope it's sony considering nintendo would literally make them regress with their horrible hardware and microsoft is microsoft lmao

But please no just leave 3rd party devs alone. They work best as 3rd party devs

Re: Global Sales Data Suggests Balan Wonderworld Has Massively Flopped

Judal27

@HeadPirate Yea you did play a different game. The XV i played at launch which is inferior to the one with updates, had optional dungeons, rare weapons and items to look for, hunts for unique enemies, and mini games like fishing or Chocobo racing. Its no more empty than BotW unless you want to count the 900 pieces of turd that not even the devs want you to look for

It also had plenty of side quests but a lot of them were terrible fetch quests like the ones you'd find in BotW, the so called "masterpiece"

Re: Feature: Zelda: Phantom Hourglass Is Secretly One Of The Best Zeldas

Judal27

It absolutely is one of the best zeldas. I was expecting wind waker lite out of it and it was exactly what I got which i loved. It was fun exploring what felt like a mini open world. And i really liked doodling my terrible looking maps. I fully enjoyed it much more than BotW

Never understood how people could love spirit tracks and hate phantom hourglass when it was basically the same game except PH didn't force you on linear rail roads having to avoid trains which was tedious and annoying more than anything.

Re: Talking Point: Is Zelda An RPG, Or Not?

Judal27

I mean not many action adventure games that i know of have as many rpg troupes that Zelda has. You have an overworld with mobs, towns to visit, and dungeons that you have to progress through to advance the story. Most action adventure games don't really offer that and are pretty straight forward in that regard aren't they?

Sometimes it feels like Zelda is an rpg in all but stat raising which is only 1 characteristic of an rpg. But despite that i still wouldn't know what to classify it lmao

Re: Best Nintendo DS RPGs

Judal27

Lmao those prices tho. Thank you emulation

And i enjoyed sonic chronicles for what it was. It was just as fun to me as the Mario and Luigi games, especially when it came to exploring the overworld. But i don't think it has any business being in a best ds RPGs list tbh

Re: Best Nintendo 3DS RPGs

Judal27

Have all of these hacked into my 3ds. And i always get a giddy feeling seeing all those icons lined up on my homescreen when I boot it up

Now if i could actually play all of them within my lifetime, that'd be great
