Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (6th July)

Maubari

@Divide_and_Wander Yeah, that's a good price.. Like, I really REALLY wanted to like NNK2 as well, but.. the game just doesn't know what it wants to do, you know? It's got too much going on at once, the story and characters don't make sense and the music is mostly recycled from the first one.. However, the battle system is actually quite good. So, uh.. yeah. Maybe I just had too high expectations, but it just wasn't good.

I do hope you enjoy the other ones though!

Re: Review: The Legend Of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak (Switch) - A Strong Entry With Some Confusing Quirks

Maubari

Yeah, that voice acting thingy has been a thing in the last few Trails games now.. It's annoying, but nothing really bothersome tbh. I'm more concerned with how different this entry is - different battle system, different characters.. it's literally a whole new world. However, I am extremely interested to see what Calvard is like - after all the stuff Heiuye did in the Crossbell saga and seeing the influence that Calvard had in Crossbell and even Nord definitely got me curious!

I hope a certain divine blade shows up at some point too..

Re: Talking Point: Could Another Nintendo Series Take Over The 'Traditional' Zelda Template?

Maubari

Nah, they just need to stop being stubborn and give us an traditional Zelda! Not everyone likes the generic open world that the series has gone off in... Breath of the Wild is by far the most boring, generic and painfully dull open world game I've ever played. Tears of the Kingdom is slightly better, but not by much.

They're giving us a brand new 2D Zelda though with EoW, so there's hope for us traditional 3D Zelda fans yet.... I HOPE.

Re: Donkey Kong Country Returns HD Swings Onto Switch Next Year

Maubari

@FreasurePlanten Dude. Just be thankful there was ANYTHING for Donkey Kong in here at all! They could've him and done nothing, but we got this. I would've preferred an completely new game too, but I'm a bit too old to be picky about a franchise that's basically almost left to die by Nintendo.

We gamers should just be more grateful all around and not be like little cry babies complaining about every. single. thing. It's OK to be disappointed though, but it feels too damn picky to me.

Re: Nintendo Direct June 2024: Time, Where To Watch, What To Expect

Maubari

Awesome! Time to see what they have.. Although I'm more excited for the chaos that is the Nintendo Direct chat; People expect WAY too much and when they don't get exactly what they want they spam the chat with ''zzzzz'' and clown and barf emoji's. It's pretty hilarious.

That said, I would already be super satisfied if they could finally release DK64 and Diddy Kong Racing for NSO. Everything else is just a bonus; I'm already really satisfied with the Switch and its library

Re: Hands On: Luigi's Mansion 2 HD Delivers More Than Just A Hi-Def Upgrade

Maubari

I can't wait! Literally the only Luigi's Mansion I actually enjoyed. 1 was too confusing and 3 was just.. annoying? I like the linerarity of 2 alot. Just pre-ordered it alongside Trails Through Daybreak!

I also kind of hope they announce the Switch' successor to be released in 2026.. Would be damn hilarious to see everyone's whining about it, the way they usually do haha

Re: Hands On: Sonic X Shadow Generations Is A Love Letter To Sonic Adventure 2

Maubari

I REALLY hope this will work out; this had better not be using the same trashy engine that they used for Forces and Frontiers.. The level design is one thing, but if they take the awful controls from the cyber space levels into this one too, then.. Major yikes.

However - from what I've seen so far Space Colony ARK has never looked better. Super excited to go back there!
