Re: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Has Now Sold Over 22 Million Copies, Closing In On Gold & Silver's Sales

There was some fun to be had in Scar/Vi. The story was the best I'd exprienced since black and white, and the exploration was rewarding. But seriously if you want good Pokemon just play rom hacks/fan games. I just started playing them recently and they are so freaking good. For so long I thought I was going off pokemon, but it's not the case, I'm going off Gamefreak's pokemon.

Edit:
@Fizza
Ha didn't see your comment before I made mine, that proves your point lol

@Anti-Matter
Epic chef was great!

I played Chef life: a resturant simulator recently and instantly traded in in. I couldn't even do the tutorial of a cooking game, let alone cook IRL. Thank god my SO is the chef and I'm the cleaner in our relationship xD

Re: Rumour: Nintendo Is Targeting A 2024 Release For The Switch Successor

That soon? We'll see.

I'm really not in a rush for a new console despite being aware of its shortcomings. My backlog is crippling without having to juggle another system.

All this talk about backwards compatibility, that would be lovely but I'm expecting just Switch cartridges to work on it. Making it account bound would be a terrible business decision as much as I would love it.

Just imagine how many of us would double dip on our favourite digital games. They would lose so much money if we could download them all from our account day one. Still, I can dream.

I'm playing * Knights* (super fun rouge-lite) as well as Pokemon Blue Kaizo (difficulty rom hack for Pokemon Blue) I'm in Erika's gym and of course her gym trainers are packing Blastoise and Gyarados to ruin my day. I'm having so much fun with this game, honestly I thought it would have me beat by now, maybe I underestimated myelf.

Re: Soapbox: Catching Legendary Pokémon The Old-Fashioned Way Was So Much Better

Sillyeyepatch

I will never forget my Victini that I went to Gamestation to get with my friend at the time. I never use legendaries, but I did then, he was just so good! That type matchup, the cuteness, mwah!

Catching legendaries/obtaining mythicals is such a chore these days, all the magic has been lost. I miss these times, the part about where you got some trading cards and ate out just sounds like a perfect day, even now!

@Ooyah
I feel the same way about QTE's I would prefer it if they weren't there because I have the reaction times of a slug, but all I can say is it's very forgiving, you can retry over and over. Only thing you might struggle with is the 'combat' for lack of a better word but if you are dumb like me and get stuck refering to a walkthrough for the bit you are on will alleviate the stress of it as you know what you need to do next, it's hard to describe but you would get what I mean if you played it.

I personally think the QTE's shouldn't put you off because it's great, but I understand that the game is very polarising some people love it and some don't so watch a few reviews and maybe wait for a sale.

After loving Rain Code I decided to jump into the Danganronpa series starting from the first one, I quite like it so far.

Still continuing with my Poke-hack playthroughs I started Pokémon Eruption last night, it's refreshing that the maps and story are completely different. I have high hopes for it!

@Ooyah Ooh it must be good if you've jumped straight back in! I'm definitely looking forward to getting around to it, I'm glad it's really clicked for you, hopefully I will feel the same too!
Well the aforementioned Raincode is my favourite game this year, so I find that it's refreshing to see people have different tastes. As good as TOTK is, it gets boring if we all have the same opinion haha.

Re: The GameCube And Wii Emulator Dolphin Is No Longer Coming To Steam

Sillyeyepatch

I am not a Nintendo apologist; we should be allowed to emulate old games that they do not give us a way to access anymore, and therefore won't lose them any money, heck it's not exactly the same thing but I bought a multi DS cartridge with lots of different games on it because of the atrocious price of old Pokemon games.

But just maybe if we didn't constantly prove to Nintendo that we can't be trusted (every single new release they make gets dumped online before release) they would be a bit more relaxed about it. I don't follow other consoles, but do other companies games' get leaked this often?

@epicgamner
Maybe one day they will do something that gets my attention. I'm late to a lot of things, I only played a Kirby last year (even though the game didn't make me a fan, I tried it at least)

I'm glad you're enjoying it though, it's a great time to hop on board! I guess the game feel is hard to get across in trailers. Funny enough I really enjoyed Tinykin though (Pikmin inspired platformer)

Re: Doomsday Hunters Is A Frantic Roguelike Shooter Blasting Onto Switch This Week

@JohnnyMind
Thanks! I admittedly didn't watch the trailer because I will give anything a go as long as it's not a roguelike and I can carry stuff along when I inevitably die xD
@MisanthropyAGoGo
Nah it's the opposite, as long as its a rogue-lite I'm in xD
It sounds fantastic I will definitely grab it after hearing that, so thankyou!
Since you've played that many, what is your opinion of Ember Knights if you've played that one? it just came out and was thinking of grabbing it tommorow.

Re: Master Detective Archives: Rain Code Writer "Would Love To Make A Sequel"

Sillyeyepatch

Absolutely love the game, would insta-buy a sequel, I'm not long into chapter 4.
The way that the title is with the colon I just assumed it would be a series, think Master Detective Archives: insert new title here

I would improve it by characters not hammering home the same thing/sentence all the time, especially Shinigami as much as she is gorgeous and funny, she does get annoying sometimes. And overall just a teeny bit less tropey? I know it comes with the territory but I would love more nuanced characters.

I need that figure so bad nose bleed
