Re: Soapbox: Game Freak Could Actually Learn A Thing Or Two From Palworld

@dew12333

Have you tried pal world? It's actually one of the best games I've played in a while, and it's still in early access.

It's qol is amazing compared to most other survival games I've played, and it's capture and exploration mechanics hit the nail on the head.

Maybe the pals look waaaay too close to pokemon, but the gameplay is actually tighter in most cases, and more clever, than pokemon.

If their monsters looked different, I suspect most people would see the gameplay for what it is, but it feels like a lot of people have missed out on the game because of their frustrations with its controversial monster styles.

Re: Poll: How Much Internal Storage Would Be Reasonable For 'Switch 2'?

Kiwi_Unlimited

I've nearly filled up my 1.5TB micro sd, so I'm biased for more space.

That being said, if nintendo is going to make us have switch 2 for nearly a decade, more memory could only help.

Edit:

I originally started I had a 2 TB micro sd. It appears I was flat out wrong.

I suppose that means I still have storage hope, once 2 TB micro sds eventually come out.
(Sadly, I've heard that that's a high ad they'll be able to go, so I'm still a little nervous about storage)

Try being the guy waiting for either the fan -based time splitters game to be released, or the canceled-uncanceled-no news available Time Splitters 4.

It was originally announced in the mid to late 2000s!

When Cortez said, "It's time to split," he forgot to mention that he may never be coming back!

Oh, speak of the devil!

That damned, failed merger with embracer group rears its ugly head again!

I seem to be in disagreement with nintendo life on this, as they've slipped over it twice on lists where it should probably show up, but my favorite is still Remnant: From the Ashes.

While it is better on pc (I've sunk nearly 500 hours into the pc one, hunting secrets or playing and replaying with friends), I've dumped a fair amount of time into the switch version as well.

If none of those games scratched your itch, I can't guarantee this one will, as my friends have been quite polarized on the game, but if you like experimenting with item builds as you "git gud," is definitely encourage it.

The sheer depth of the game is surprising, and doesn't truly become obvious until one has had some time with it.

Like I said, it's been polarizing in my friend group, so if you're not interested, I don't blame you, but if you're still searching for the right game to fill the itch, this might do it.

Re: Poll: Super Mario All-Stars Is 30 Years Old - Do You Prefer The NES Or SNES Versions Of The Classics?

Mario 3's all starts version, as well as its vc version took out some of the secrets.

An example of this is in a scrolling level on world 1 where the player could get a pwing of they got every coin in the level.

When I couldn't do it on these versions, I youtubed it, followed every step and coin (in case I'd forgotten something), and it still wasn't there.

Thus, mario 3 was better in its original nest form for its additional secrets.

@-wc-

Although I'm fine with these articles, something you said has stuck with me.

I'm s programmer, and it blows my mind how quickly people try to break programs that do them a service. They feel smart, for example, if they find a way to break that calculator/data gatherer/ search engine/etcetera, but if it was a shovel and they broke that on purpose, they'd just look like idiots.
