Yeah those graphics are garbage ( seriously it looks like a bad flash game)and Lost valley didn't exactly inspire confidence in their ability to make good game...
-dodgy controls -half the amount of marriage candidates compared to most any harvest moon game. -no village -etc.
Also IIRC the game is free to play which could easily make for a frustrating experience with not enough stamina/money or whatever unless you pay up...
Also the dialogue in a new beginning was mind numbingly dull. Xseed is a much better localizer if rune factory 4 is anything to go by...
@Broosh Holy **** do people STILL blame Nintendo for what third party devs do? It's Capcom who would implement voice chat in Monster Hunter not Nintendo.
And don't say "3DS is too weak for voice chat." Heroes of Ruin had it so yes it is possible.
I was about to say that people like you are the reason they went out of business...but I didn't notice the "so I went out and bought a hard copy" part the first time I read your post XD.
Curses be upon modern gaming trends(damn smartphones and 100 million dollar budget games with stupid amounts of advertising)
There is barely any market for medium size devs on traditional hardware anymore...
It could be argued they went the wrong way about it but this is not some situation where you can just scream about some censorship boogeyman.
They tried to improve the side quests based on player feedback. Of course half the Internet is going to do the ol "Nintendo doesn't think westerns can handle this kind of thing" nonsense.
Now the costume changes are silly I think we can agree on that.
This game seems like a overly stubborn, lazy moron. He broken Patreons rules has his page taken down and what does he do? Does the exact same thing again.
He also is unemployed so he tries to make money off someone elses IP? He even more or less says he is using someone else's characters because his aren't popular...what a piece of work...
Mutant Mudds was cool but got lost in my backlog and none of their output save moon appealed to me really(and the episodic format was crap. Shoulda been one game from the start. Would've made more money that way I say)
But dementium 1/2 and Treasurenaughts are on my list. 3DS needs more horror games and I like games that you collect lots of loot in.
I hope smartphone games being de-microtransaction'd and fleshed out in a handheld remake becomes a trend.
A lot of smartphone games have good ideas and a fun premise but are ruined by
-Intrusive or predatory micro transactions/ads -touch screen only controls -excessive reliance on social features -too much time limited content -Firmware updates literally rendering games unplayable(freedom unite for example) -more frequent crashes -often times if you have an older device(even just a couple years old) it might not run properly or at all. Etc.
Making a really short remaster episodic(and poorly handling it at that) is a REALLY bad idea. It took so long for them to even mention what was going on with the next episode that I lost interest in finishing and never bought the rest.
@Yorumi it probably makes more sense financially to release the game to a new and larger install base than it does to release DLC for a over two year old game.
Plus this is a lot of content. Five new characters, a new adventure map, new enemies, new maps, costumes, customizable fairies etc and the game already a bit of DLC. Expecting a game more than a year old to get new content is crazy unless its a MMOPRG or something REALLY REALLY big.
@wazlon that is really the only big problem a I have with the game.
The chance you have of recruiting almost every Yokai is stupidly low. Even with a ability that boosts chances and the best food you often will need a dozen+ attempts to befriend one. Don't even get me started on the rare Yokai...
It's a 8/10 because of this rather than a 9/10 IMO.
@MrSeitaro THIS. Only indie fighting games can really get any sort of pass for this at all because they might not have the resources. Even than its a big knock against the game....
But Namco Bandai is a long lived large company and dragonball is a big series so it is rather shameful.
Did you seriously leave Stella Glow, Return to Popolocrois, and Legend of Legacy act out of even the honorable mentions but include a freaking movie-Tie in?
I have a brother who is also a Zelda fan and my best friend is a huge Zelda fan.
Gonna get us together to play this. It's gonna be great. Download play being so generous is great as I don't have to buy my poor college bro a copy now
But yeah I don't think this will be as good as ALBW. That game was freakin amazing. It ranks up their with the likes of Majoras Mask.

Voice chat really should be an option though.
Re: You'll Be Able To Dress Up As Mario And Peach In The Next Story Of Seasons Game
@boatie I want a 3DS port of stardew to see what the hype is about.
Anyways they really need to increase the variety of dialogue like on Rune Factory 4. Hundreds of days in and you still see new dialogue.

And it's just DLC. Chillax.
Re: Nintendo Issues Statement On Side Quest Changes In Bravely Second
@RainbowGazelle IIRC choosing a side dictates what new class you get.
Party sure you can eventually get the other class in the later parts of the game though.
Re: Nintendo Issues Statement On Side Quest Changes In Bravely Second
This is actually a good response.
It could be argued they went the wrong way about it but this is not some situation where you can just scream about some censorship boogeyman.

Indeed. None of the current or coming soon VR devices are cheap or advanced enough to become the dominant force in gaming.
Re: Oddworld: Soulstorm Announced for a 2017 Release, Promising a "Dark, Twisted Trip Into Abe's Heart and Soul"

My hype skyrocketed before violently crashing back into the dirt.
I think oddworld looks like a great series but it just doesn't interest me for whatever reason.

Man splatoon is still on the charts. It just keeps chugging along.
There is no way we won't see a Splatoon game NX in the future.
Nintendo won't pass up the chance to make another series that sells similarly to Mario/Smash/Animal Crossing/Pokemon

Re: Jools Watsham Explains Why his Latest Game Didn't Release on Nintendo Platforms

Re: Nintendo Download: 26th November (North America)
Dunno why anyone expected anything good to release. Nobody would want to release a game when so many games are on sale.
MH4U, W101 and RF4 are a steal at those prices.

Re: Shin Megami Tensei IV: Final to Feature Predecessor's Cast and Use Its Save Data

It's like a interquel, retcon, or a Alternate universe version of events.
