Re: Review: Lonely Mountains: Downhill - A Freewheeling Downhill Delight

@AtlanteanMan I'm not referring to the low poly count. I have the game on PC and love the aesthetics. I'm talking about the actual resolution of the game. The rider and the background have jagged edges, look pixelated, and the resolution looks to be lower than the overlayed UI.

edit: I went ahead and bought the game and yeah, it's definitely blurrier than the PC version and seems to run at 30fps, but it's nice way to play this handheld, but I think I'd rather stick with the PC version for this game. The developers said to get the game to run on Switch they had to make some concessions and it runs equivalent medium terrain quality and low shadow settings on PC (from they're announcement on Steam). I'm glad they said this and wish more devs would be this transparent on ports to the Switch.

Re: Review: Ashen - A Welcome Spin On The Dark Souls Formula

Nice review. I picked this up awhile back when it launched on PC and really enjoyed my time with it. They really nailed the feeling I got when I first played Dark Souls. The mood, atmosphere, lore and visuals are wonderful. One issue I had was the lack of variety in loot. Most of the hidden items were just upgrade materials, and after awhile you didn't need them so going out of your way to find a secret item was rarely worth it. Also, the final boss of the main game and DLC was very bad.

@ouroborous As someone who played through the game on PC, loved it, bought it on Switch to play it again - there is serious input lag and to me it makes the game not nearly as enjoyable as it is intended. The combat and movement should be snappy and responsive and on Switch it is not. It’s very real so don’t spread misinformation. Let’s hope the patch addresses this. I’m glad you’re enjoying it but others might not be able to look past this. This is a great game and I wouldn’t recommend anyone to play this on the Switch in its current state. I can look past the bad visuals and frame stuttering, but the input lag ruins the game for me.

Re: Review: Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen - Monster Hunter Meets Darks Souls

@AlternateButtons This game is not difficult at all. The difficulty in this game comes from being underleveled, so as long as you're doing the side quests you'll be fine. Bitterblack Isle (the DLC) is harder, but if you are at an appropriate level it is very doable, and if you're overleveled it's easy. Nothing in this comes close to Dark Souls in terms of difficulty. If you are low level going against something higher level you will know very quickly as you'll be doing little to no damage and probably get OHK'd. This game has a lot problems, but it's a lot of fun too.
