Re: Review: Unruly Heroes - If You Loved Rayman Origins, You'll Love This

OK just tried the game, it plays more like Trine than Rayman: you need to switch between characters to use their abilities. In Rayman Origins/Legends whichever character you choose is purely cosmetic, but in this game you need to constantly switch characters.

Art style is similar to Rayman, that's about it. The reviewer should have made that clear.

Re: Nintendo Reconfirms Switch Release Windows For Metroid, Pokémon, Animal Crossing And More

That's very few games in development. I thought with the Switch replacing both home console and portable will increase the number of 1st party games... guess not.

Nintendo, stop wasting time on your stability code and cardboard toy: get back to work!

(The lack of games announced can also be due to Nintendo working on something big in secret for quite a while. VR? 3D glasses? Who knows?)

Re: WarGroove Supports Cross-Play Battles

@Kalmaro A lot of people made 'love letter' for Nintendo games in Unity and Unreal... they were all shutdown. Why did Nintendo allow this commercial game that outright ripoff their games? (FE is still very much alive and doing really well in the mobile platform.)

The game is good, just turn off the voice audio. However, it can't compare with AW or FE, it just doesn't have their personalities. The campaign is closer to FE than AW, there's also an arcade and puzzle mode. You can create your own map to share with other players, I haven't tried that yet.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (January 26th)

It's leaked a few days ago.

My advise to anyone planning to play Wargroove:

1. Turned off the voice.
2. Turn off fighting animations.
3. Set handheld mode to 'full'.
4. Set 'show health bar' instead of number.

While the voice is not as bad as Tiny Metal, it's still makes me cringe. They want to imitate FE's grunting, sneering soundbites but it's not done very well. Best to just turn off the volume entirely.

Playing Wargroove for 2 days already, will keep on playing for the weekend. This game wasn't just 'inspired' by Advance War, it took so much from Fire Emblem as well... some people said copying is the most sincere form of flattery, I wondered how Intelligent Systems feel about this? Why is Nintendo OK with someone stealing their idea?

Re: Cytus Alpha Physical Release Brings Rhythm To North America This April

Broken robot girl and you have to fix her by playing a music game. Is this GRIS with rhythm? Also, most games these days are female oriented, if they use a male robot: it will be considered bad taste. Ever wondered why there are so many female protagonist in games now?

I bet Nintendo will soon introduced Maria, a female version of their mascot.
