Re: Poll: DOOM Eternal Is Out Today On Switch, Are You Getting It?

@WaveWitch That's their choice then.

Half of the comments about no physical are simply that, or saying that they might consider it at a later point if a sale or physical pops up; not wishing the game to the pits of hell(no pun intended). Those kinda comments would be a dif matter.

@Kidfunkadelic83 This comment so much.

Re: Poll: DOOM Eternal Is Out Today On Switch, Are You Getting It?

@Peach64 @WaveWitch What exactly is wrong with wanting something physical? It isn't even really about the box to me so much as it is just having something tangible if I'm going to be paying that kinda price in particular(ie cart). Throw in the big delay and that's just asking people to lose interest(not even entirely blaming them since 2020 is a hot mess anyways).

That's why I'm not getting the game [right now]. I just don't feel that kinda price is justified if I don't feel a sense of security in 'owning' it.

Just speaking for myself but if the price drops to something that catches my eye, I'll definitely nab it then, so I haven't completely written it off frfr.

Re: DOOM Eternal Blasts To Switch In December - Check Out The New Trailer

Lalivero

While the delay was saddening and killed hype(just didn't expect thiiiis long of one), my main gripe here is pricing, frfr. Iirc, the PS5/XSX are getting Eternal for -free- if you have the 4/One versions, which puts the current cheap pricing low low vs what this'll be.

With no physical, that seems like even more of a smack. :3

I really wanted this, but idk... might personally wait a bit longer.

@TheFrenchiestFry You're gonna get carpal tunnel fooling around with GO. ☠️☠️☠️

Coming from someone else who is a sole Switch owner, would much rather have a physical copy, and has crap internet (currently live in a rural area where even call signal can be a lil dodgy), I don't inherently have a problem with this. My main gripes, like others have expressed, are price(yeah... quite a bit steep for the nature of play) and the fact that you'd hope it's a last resort effort to at least have the game decently available as opposed to a copout, ala EA w/ this Fifa legacy mess(yeah, dif kinda laziness but... ). I mean it's a shame it isn't exactly available to someone like me, but I guess at least the option is there so others don't feel totally left behind.

Speaking of portability, I play like 95% portable on my Switch since I'm on the go a bit, so, while I mayyy consider a 'next gen' system(just hate being tethered to a TV for gaming nowadays), a part of me wishes Sony would surprise us with a 'Vita-comparable' alternative to the Switch. 🤷🏾‍♂️ xD That thing deserved way more love than it got. :l

Streaming services in general have never been my thing up to this point though tbh(I haven't bothered with Netflix or any of that in a looong while).

Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe And Super Mario Party Double Pack Appears In The US

Lalivero

I don't get the Super Mario Party hate personally, esp since I've played it more than Smash and I didn't bother getting Mario Kart 8D.

Where the game falls short is there isn't toooo much content. A game of this nature just screams (Free?) DLC/updates to add more boards, minigames, etc. and Nintendo just left it to dry.

It's a shame how much of a bad rep MP has nowadays but it really is Nintendo's own fault when they refuse to treat it like it deserves care.

Re: DOOM Eternal Switch Release Still Happening, id Software Says It's "Very Close"

Lalivero

As someone who was very excited about getting the Switch version, I've been almost turned completely off of it. From simultaneous launch in March to 'release info coming very soon' in July to here we are in almost October and it's just more of this more info 'coming soon' stuff.

I can understand delaying it from launch since Switch is something else unfortunately, but here we are ⅔ of the year after the fact and we haven't even seen the game running, let alone any true release info. At least with Bayonetta 3, it's an exclusive so we don't have to stew over watching other consoles get to play it far sooner.

The game has long since been for a bargain on PSbox and, if you were already getting next gen anyways, you'll get a(n upgraded?) copy for totally nothing to play on that system as well, meanwhile we haven't so much as gotten a miniclip of how the game will s'posedly look...and for full price no less. >_>

This was a day one purchase even with the initial delay, but now I'm in the 'not sure tbh' camp.

Re: Poll: Super Mario 3D All-Stars Is Out Today On Switch, Are You Getting It?

Lalivero

Whew I'm not sure how to feel about this game tbh. It just seems so...rushed. Between this and Pokémon, etc. it's kinda slowed down my 1st party intake lately, which I guess is good for the indie scene since that has taken up more of my recent gaming time.

@Crimson_Ridley It's honestly why I hate getting stuff like video games (as a pre-order) through the mail, esp since I've had mail come up missing before for a number of reasons. As for clothes, shoes, etc., you could get the wrong size by accident or incompetence, ya di da.

I'm a walk-in type person; I'd rather go out to the store if I want something.

Re: id Software Reveals The First Campaign Expansion For DOOM Eternal

Lalivero

Well my hype has just about all been killed and I don't even plan on getting either of the PSbox versions, unless it gets a nice lower than normal 'introductory' price(which it very likely -won't-) on Switch. Not only will the other versions be cheaper naturally, the new PSbox gen gets em for free, which halves the price even further than what they'll be by that point. Meanwhile we are probably gonna end up paying full price for a naturally lesser game. #lawd

It's a shame because I had this immediately on my radar as a Day 1 buy, even with the initial delay, but I'll have to seriously think about 'wasting' my money for a scraps version(yep, like others have said, it is kinda sketchy that we have not seen any footage).

Re: Reminder: Today Is Bunny Day In Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Lalivero

@ShadJV If they had the same rates, then yeah I just had crap luck. I was playing around the same time I was before the event and I know I was running into (reg) balloons on the regular but then hardly saw any of those during the event until the last update or so.

I didn't mind the event but just too much stuff going on at once for someone who wants to play more casually like ya say.

Re: Reminder: Today Is Bunny Day In Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Lalivero

@ShadJV I didn't get a chance to play much for the fishing tourney because I was either sleeping or working during it, but I had opposite luck for what I got to see... only saw one water egg.

And yeah...I guess the bunny day stuff messed with my mind a bit in that it was all over so seemed to meddle with what I thought were regular balloon spawn rates. I actually hardly saw -any- regular balloons the entire event until that last update a couple days ago, which is weird as heck if Bunny Day wasn't s'posed to interfere at all then. I think I only have one Sakura/cherry blossom recipe.

Re: Reminder: Animal Crossing: New Horizon's Fishing Tourney Starts Today

Lalivero

Dang this sucks. Can't catch any break lately with this game, ha. )-:

First, I barely have any cherry blossom/Sakura items because Bunny Day being two weeks messed that up and the cherry blossom stuff ended yesterday.

Now I'm going to miss this fishing tournament because I'm not off work til 7p. :x

I miss town ordinances...

Re: Get Zelda: Oracle Of Seasons And Oracle Of Ages For Just Over £5 With My Nintendo (Europe)

Lalivero

@mesome713 You can calm down frfr. You love My Nintendo? That's on you... but it's a hot mess imo and I'd rather just not have a system at all at this point tbh with you.

You're telling me that getting a Majora's Mask soundtrack, etc. was 'crap' rewards from Club Nintendo and that you're more excited about phone wallpapers(that Thanos already mentioned you can find for free by a simple online search). #BYE ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️😹 CN ofc wasn't perfect but I'd take it back in a heartbeat compared to what we got now.

Re: Get Zelda: Oracle Of Seasons And Oracle Of Ages For Just Over £5 With My Nintendo (Europe)

Lalivero

@ThanosReXXX That Zelda Picross or w/e? I love Picross so I've had that since it released, lls. ☠️☠️☠️ And ion even care for Fire Emblem yet, as an example, I played tf out of Heroes and other mobile titles just to rack up the plat coins initially only for all that to expire because nothing ever came of it. >.>

At the least they could let the coins not expire. Hell, let us purchase some of the NSO (s)nes games with coins so we ain't gotta keep that online mess to access the ones we want...(ik that ain't finna happen).

Re: Get Zelda: Oracle Of Seasons And Oracle Of Ages For Just Over £5 With My Nintendo (Europe)

Lalivero

@ThanosReXXX I'm pretty sure I had a few thousand platinum coins that are all gone now because I honestly be forgetting My Nintendo even exists. That's how irrelevant it is, as opposed to CN where I was checking regularly.

Not to mention already being penalized for buying physical games as far as gold coins go, so they are essentially even more useless to someone like myself. :x

Re: Krome Studios Says It Would Like To Port Ty 2 And 3 To Nintendo Switch

Lalivero

I was like others here since I always buy physical when it's an option(hell, I have Animal Crossing physical) but this was the rare exception that I just said to heck with it and downloaded(I mean it's only 2gigs unlock typical retail, so that makes it more bearable as well). Should it get a physical release I'll probably nab a copy of that anyways.

I've def been having fun with the OG rn either way, though not sure if I'd nab the other two unless they have a trilogy cart.

Re: Random: Someone's Made The Entirety Of Zelda's Hyrule Within Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Lalivero

Wow... all I can say rn haha. I can't wait to be able to meddle with my island a bit more once I get this.

Btw, does anyone have the final verdict on wth unlocks Nook's Cranny upgrade? I've heard 28 days but some time travelers seem to have proven that isn't the exact case, I've heard 70k bells but I've spent more than that... a lot of conflicting storiws surrounding the whole thing.

Re: Nintendo Reminds Us Of 20 Exciting Games Coming To Switch In 2020 With New Infographic

Lalivero

Ughhhhh, Platinum has to be trolling with Bayonetta 3!! It's been brewing for a good while now and we still haven't seen jack pretty much. D: Haha, this wait is killin' me. xD

Out of this infographic though, I'm looking forward to DOOM Eternal and Animal Crossing: NH the most, with Pokémon Mystery Dungeon a lock still, too. Also should be grabbing Darksiders Genesis and Outer Worlds... and Snack World has my interest still as of now.
