I don't know, looks to me that you just made a bad review and gave it a low score to contrast pretty much what other websites and outlets are saying, so you can stand out more. Hope it was worth it.
That said, five hours in, and I am really enjoying it. Perhaps not an excellent game, but it's quite fun. Zero glitches on my end, by the way. Graphics are a tad blurry, but I've played FAR worse, like No More Heroes 3, Deadly Premonition 2, Ys IX... I'd say it's fine, since performance is pretty consistent.
People can't really think that 4K flat is a lot of money, right? ... Right? No wonder the VA industry is dying with stuff like this and how anime VAs are exploited. This sucks.
Grabbed Splatoon 3 earlier this week, and I am enjoying it slowly. I also got The Eternal Cylinder on PC, since it just came out on Steam, so I look forward to that one!
lmao all the b8lets being like "hurr durr why bother if it's not 1 to 1 to the game???". I'd rather watch something unique than the same plot but in a different format.
After over two years of sitting on my shelf, I'll finish Deadly Premonition 2. Not as fun as the original, or charming or pretty much anything, but still has some soul and York is a likeable weirdo.
Slowly getting through Somnium Files: Nirvana Initiative. Not as interesting as the original, but I like how it tackles certain aspects like mental health and depression. Also playing Eastward. Pretty good game!
On other platforms, I am finishing Dragon Quest XI on Stadia. I started it on Switch, but for some reason dropped it there.
"But we'll buy them anyway". Nah, I am good with the originals. Specially since they butchered Wind Waker's art style, in my opinion. I'd rather play the originals or my dumped ISOs on PC.
Absolute garbage game. All my friends who got it played it for 3 hours and regret purchasing it. I would say I dodged a bullet, but considering the trailers and ads looked terrible, that would be obvious.
@KingMike There is no point in purchasing currency nor any other microtransactions. You can play whenever you want and everything can be unclocked just by playing. The only thing that can be considered microtransactions is the battlepass, but you get the currency you need to purchase it completly free and you earn a lot just by playing. People cyring in the comments don't know anything about the current state of the game.
Why is everyone talking about microtransactions? They got rid of those last month. I literally got the game a couple weeks ago, and unlocked all characters except one in 5 hours without spending a dime. Same can be done with vehicles and costumes. There's zero point in paying for in-game currency, unless you want everything unlocked without playing the game, which in fact, is quite fun.
I am watching One Piece, so I snagged Pirate Warriors 3 and World Red. I already had Warriors 4 physical so... I'll play it in a couple months when I finish the anime.
The whole Symphony event was a delight, one of the best streams I've ever watched and the new renditions were top notch. A perfect way to celebrate Sonic's 30 anniversary, and much better than what Nintendo did for Mario's 35, and so far, Zelda.
It's not about porting or rereleasing old titles or a bunch of random merchandise, it's about celebrating the great things and giving fans something unique.
It's clearly not. Publishers have never been this greedy and things will get worse. AAA developers are afraid of trying new things and those who try get critiziced. Scalpers are ruining the market, which was already pretty bad due to the pandemic. Most recent releases are either ports or average remakes of recent games. Physical releases are less important as time moves on, and videogames are approaching "Netflix" territory with things like Game Pass...
If it wasn't for the indie developers, I would've given up on videogames... I miss the early-mid 2000s.
During a sale. No way I am going to spend 60 euros for a couple of digital-only visual novels when Nintendo didn't even bother to make a physical release. Looks like they translated the games to English and decided to make a quick buck.
@sanderev lmao this is a mod. Are you against mods and/or homebrew? I really hope your post is just bait and you're trolling because holy cow, what a bootlicker.
Welp, one of the few TCG that I liked. The gameplay was pretty easy to understand. I used the Google Translate app to get through the tutorials and some of the card's effects. Sad to see it won't get a west release.
Cool! I really liked the game on Stadia and I keep playing from time to time, since it's the only 'battle royale' that I like alongside Tetris 99. Hopefully it'll have crossplay/cross save.
Everyone keeps saying that Harvest Moon is worse than Story of Seasons and that Natsume yada-yada but honestly, both franchises look pretty mediocre to me. At least, the new Harvest Moon has a better artstyle, IMHO.
Really sweet article. I don't recall ever facing that though while playing a videogame, but that part of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon when your character disappears and you see some cutscenes of your friend trying to cope is something that hit me as a kid.
It's overpriced, yeah, but people saying that a +40 hours RPG should be free are so stupid lmao. II'll wait for a sequel of either Miitopia or Tomodachi.
