Re: Cuphead Developer Dreams Of Making A New Zelda Game

NullPointerExcep

Hand-drawn Zelda would be interesting

That said, I think that Cadence of Hyrule was a exception. It's natural that more indies would start showing interest, but I'm not sure if public statements like these are going to work... Feels like a opportunistic way to pressure to Nintendo, while Cadence was a mutually agreed surprise

@TheLightningYu Nice
I have a bit of prejudice towards musou-like games, this gave me a better perspective (never played one)
Still I kinda feel that too many enemies must be annoying
Things like DMC3 are challenging but give you some room to work it out on your own, musou-likes feels to me that they're either super easy or super hard, just too many enemies
But the endgame / boss thing you said looks nice, assuming they're fair and not just damage sponges

I guess fire emblem will be the only must buy 🤔 will be my first proper experience with the series (just quickly played some gba title before)
Was thinking into picking Youngblood because I liked the Terror Twins but maybe it's not worth the sd space
I'm suspecting Mario maker 2 will need the online subscription... I don't think the service is good enough to pay for the other games... Not sure if I would pay just for Mario maker, but lots of 2d mario levels is a tempting idea
Also I really liked the Infinite War movie, way more pessimistic than most super hero movies, will check for reviews of Ultimate 3

Re: Mario Tennis Aces Gets Free Week-Long Demo, 7-Day Online Subscription Included

NullPointerExcep

I played a bit, 24 matches, win ratio 67%, 4 tournaments
I'm actually enjoying it, the problem is that sometimes it takes too long to find matches
Maybe if the bots are challenging enough in single player I can see myself sinking tons of hours on it
Graphically-wise it's kinda simple, you can see how low detail are the crowd, but overall it's colorful and nice enough
The finals commentary can be a bit repetitive, and I only played like 5
Maybe it needs some polish in the presentation but the core gameplay is awesome
Maybe when it's on sale...

Re: Mortal Kombat 11 To Receive Reward System Tweaks After Player Backlash

NullPointerExcep

@Yosher I guess they already blurred the lines, those "full-priced" games could as well as be free
More than half of Activisions' revenue comes from monetization alone
But why cut the "full-price" if people will buy it anyway?
Sure, Mortal Kombat looks like it has some nice single-player story content, so I think it deserves a entry price, but won't be surprised if it gets huge "discounts"
Nba 2k got like 75% off
I think that if sales significantly drop because of full price + monetization, they will probably get rid of the full price, not of the shady practices

Re: Suda51 Says Switch Is "Awesome", Looking Forward To Doing More With The Console

NullPointerExcep

For me it's the opposite, I'm not interested in buying a PS4 or a better pc for playing greyish-brown shooters
Sure, Kingdom hearts and Dmc would be nice though
But I really doubt you guys played or bought all that stuff you listed, maybe you're rich and on vacation...
I still have Kingdom Battle, Sonic Mania, Smash to finish, still didn't buy Yoshi, recently bought Celeste and Baba is You, and have some other stuff on my backlog
"Only indies" for the whole year... That's not a problem if you like indies, sometimes more than random cinematic shooters, what you call "good" games is subjective
I still want to buy Ape Out, and maybe Katana Zero
Everyone is different, y'know (mind blowing)

Re: Suda51 Says Switch Is "Awesome", Looking Forward To Doing More With The Console

NullPointerExcep

Never played his games 😢 though looks like his work is nicely stylized, I'm interested in the possible killer7 extended version
But I watched a video of him talking about how the team was putting effort in Travis strikes again and the DLCs and it really annoyed me, he talked with such confidence that people were interested in the DLCs when the game feels already overpriced...
I don't like to spread negativity, I'm actually looking forward for their next releases, nice to hear he likes the Switch

Re: Review: Nuclear Throne - Fans Of Enter The Gungeon Should Check This One Out

NullPointerExcep

Whoa maybe the timing on the switch isn't the best but when I played on pc I thought it was awesome
I recommended to my brother and he completed the first loop before than me
Enter the Gungeon released and was the 'meh another one'
Nuclear Throne is fast paced, with nice characters, enemies, weapons
There's alternate routes, space cops etc, little details that were always nice to discover
Or maybe I'm nostalgic already

Re: Hellblade Release Date And Pricing Revealed For Nintendo Switch

NullPointerExcep

@BlueOcean that's nice news, actually
So it's longer maybe, which makes me more interested, besides it looking like a solid port
Maybe people answer trying to boast or something, my statistics teacher gave examples of faulty surveys, like average income from people graduated from some college, probably mostly the best ones would be collected etc

Re: Random: Sony's PS4 State Of Play Presentation Made 'Nintendo Direct' Trend On Twitter

NullPointerExcep

@Prizm Dude they opened with Iron Man VR and closed with more characters for Mortal Kombat. It was THAT empty
There was interesting bits, like Concrete Genie and a game where a weird character says something like 'Well this looks like the right place' or something
But the video got massively disliked
I guess you're just trolling though
The freaking Nindies presentation had better games

Re: Cuphead Won't Be Any Easier On Nintendo Switch

NullPointerExcep

I stopped playing Hollow Knight because I always got lost then died on the way to nowhere. Still, those occasional unlocks, story beats and bosses were nice.
I'm not sure If Cuphead is as frustating, as I read is basically short bursts, so it compells you to keep trying.
I think the problem was the simple mode. Why have it if you lock people out of the latter stages and you basically have to restart and play the supposed 'proper' way to progress? That's just weird, not sure if the 'vision' talk justifies how they handled it.

Re: Nindie Direct Shows Off Plenty Of Upcoming Indie Games On Switch

NullPointerExcep

Also, they've announced a Indie sale! I picked up Night in the Woods, as it was the last years' Seumas' McNally grand prize winner, hope it lives up to it
Other games on sale includes Inside, Firewatch, Bloodstained

Now besides Cuphead (though I've noticed I'm easily frustated after playing Hollow Knight) and Cadence, I'm into vlambeer stuff, so maybe I'll check the new arcade as others I've played.
Also that katana one was interesting with those moments between missions.

Re: Armoured Mewtwo Trademarked In Japan

NullPointerExcep

There was a 4chan post dated 20 february that goes
"This is it. Believe it now or later.
>Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield
>Region is Great Britain
>Legendary Pokémon are metal snake and wooden horse
>Armored Evolutions
>Armored Charizard, Armored Mewtwo, Armored Flygon, Armored Zeraora...
>Meltan ties into Armored Evolution and Legendary lore"
It got at least the name right
Maybe the rest was to troll people, as the armoured thing wasn't new.
The legendaries probably will be wolves, otherwise the logos would make no sense?

Re: Guide: The Best Nintendo Switch Controllers

NullPointerExcep

@shadowharold Hi! A little late but, can you clarify why it would damage the plastic? Just to be sure, it's not regular WD-40, it's the electrical contact cleaner one. I actually tried on mine with a random brand contact cleaner spray and it worked... The right joy-con was pretty annoying, it's as good as new, but now I'm worried.

Edit: on the official site ( https://www.wd40specialist.com/products/contact-cleaner/ ), it says "Safe to use on plastic, rubber and metal"
That's the way to go isn't? It's made for cleaning sensitive electronics without disassembling them
