@BongoBongo So you've nothing to add except to quote what I already said and to try and skew my words in a weak attempt to try and make me look bad even though what I said was actually correct?
@DashKappei You're going from one extreme to the next. You're using a straw man argument. I mentioned a difficulty option and nothing else, I didn't once mention a very hard difficulty a very easy whatever and I don't owe them anything either which is why I won't be buying anymore of their games assuming they make another one. There's also hundreds of thousands of people who haven't completed it too.
We could go back and fourth until we're both blue in the face but tbh I'm too tired for this, I have to be up early in the morning. If wanting accessibility options is me being entitled so be it, I'm not going to change my view on this.
@Ralek85 Hollow Knight was just right Silksong is just artificial difficulty with how almost everything inflicts double damage. People say but healing restores 3 masks which is true but it still requires a full gauge. The guy above mentions variables and how it's not that easy but in this case it really is considering the fact Silksong was originally going to be a DLC. If they made it the exact same difficulty as Hollow Knight I think everyone can be happy and I don't understand why people here are so against that.
@Yosti Well I hope you enjoy it either way but it's obvious people here are too stuck up as well as annoying so I'm just going to end this conversation now. I didn't make any demand it was merely a suggestion.
@DashKappei Entitled? excuse me but have you forgotten it's the Players buying their games that keep them in a job. We have a right to criticise if we're not happy with what we payed for. Comments like yours genuinely make me mad.
@Yosti It's rightfully so because they made it overly difficult when they didn't need to. I work sometimes 6 days a week and to be frank I don't have the energy or will to keep going. Had they of added a difficulty select I and many other Players could have enjoyed the game without the constant repeated stress of having to run through segments again whether it's running back to a boss or just bad environmental trap telegraphing inflicting double damage. To me this is not a real challenge it's just pure artificialality in terms of difficulty. IMHO this is a sequel done wrong in every conceivable way and those praising it just refuse to acknowledge or ignore the game's many glaring issues.
@bluemage1989 Well you could have fooled me. People aren't moaning they're criticising it and rightfully so. You're criticising people for criticising then.
@Yosti It's also our decision if we want to play or buy it as well and if they're just going to alienate a very large portion of the Playerbase well I don't need to say anymore. The developers of both Ori games added a difficulty select there's no reason at all why Team Cherry can't do it here.
They still didn't adjust or add a difficulty select so I'm still not interested. Until they do but I know they stubbornly won't I stubbornly refuse to go near it ever again. I got to act 3 and by the time I did I was just washed out.
Probably something to do with the Netflix animation. As for another Crash game I wouldn't mind but please don't pad it out like Crash 4 because 100% that game was pure murder.
Dying to play this. It'll be interesting to see how it performs when compared to Mario Kart World which was just a big disappointment to me personally and Sonic Racing Crossworlds.
Glad I decided not to buy this and stick with the original. I still play Battle for Neigjbourville and Garden Warfare 2 from time to time, I would recommend those over this if you're a newcomer.
Sonic Rumble though admittedly it's starting to grate more than Fall Guys because of stupid ring limits in place bad level design and appalling monetisation. Sonic Racing Crossworlds Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment Ninja Gaiden 4 and I'll try and continue on with my Digimon Story Time Stranger Playthrough as well.
Happy birthday. I remember the site when it launched because I would often lurk before originally joining in 2013. Looking forward to the future and seeing what you have in store.
Brilliant racing game. I'm playing on Super Sonic speed difficulty now as Super Sonic against level 10 Rivals and it's just an exhilarating experience all around, very difficult though but exhilarating because of how fast it is. My only criticism though is Super Sonic speed difficulty isn't available online, it only goes up to Sonic speed.
I thought it was February too. I'm ok with it coming out sooner but I still think the Price is a bit steep though. I think half would have been reasonable.
@nhSnork The way I see it is this: Palworld got very popular in the beginning, Nintendo saw it as a threat and decided to take petty legal action. Now that the hype for Palworld has died down it's so apparent that the game was never a threat to Pokémon to begin with.
No good can ever come from a case like this. In the long run the only ones that will gain something is Nintendo, everybody else including you and I will lose. There's no telling the precedent this case could set in the event it goes their way.
This is great news once again. Nobody likes a disgusting Patent Troll and as much as I love Nintendo's games Nintendo themselves are just a huge Patent Troll. What they're doing here is disgusting and could set a terrible precedent moving forward. I don't get how anyone here can defend them knowing this tbh but whatever.
Sonic Superstars was the worst 2D Sonic game I have ever played. It starts off so well but then by the time you get to Lagoon City Zone everything just falls apart. Sonic Frontiers however I enjoyed every bit of it from start to finish.
@Deljo I see. I joined in 2007 and it used to be a nice Community but when Musk took over he just run it into the ground. I recommend using Bluesky even though that place isn't perfect either, what with people using lists in a malicious manner etc. It's certainly better than Twitter/X but it's far from perfect.
Hades 2 Astro Bot Ninja Gaiden 4 Pokèmon Legends ZA StarFox Zero and finally Sonic Racing Crossworlds. I'm admittedly not enjoying that game as much as I was due to the obnoxious rubber banding and insane item spam but I want to finish all the Grand Prix cups as I like to finish something I've started. Once all that's done I'll probably jump into the online again.
Oh how I miss the days where you only had one version of a game and that was it. Today you have Standard Deluxe Premium and God knows what else and I agree with the top commenter, announcing DLC months before the game is out makes it less tempting for me to buy at launch as well.
Most of these I have already and would easily recommend them. Vampire Survivors is one of those games where you get a day where you don't know what to play so you decide to play that and it ends up keeping you entertained for the entire day.
I played this on Apple Arcade and it was one of the most relaxing not to mention the cutest game I ever played. I bought it again on Steam fairly recently and plan to start all over again 😅
I'm actually thinking of going back to Mario Kart World. I was enjoying Sonic Racing Crossworlds but admittedly the rubber banding and constant item spam has just become insufferable. I thought Mario Kart World was bad with items but compared to Crossworlds items are actually pretty tame im comparison.
