Re: Review: Metroid Prime 4: Beyond - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition (Switch 2) - Samus Returns In Prime Form

@Jeronan You know what's baffling? That whole issue can be solved in a really simple way. Only give me.a hi t when I press a button. Voila problem solved. If I want myles or whoever to tell me where to go, I could press a button and ask him. It's sad to see a series as exploration heavy as metroid go down this path. Getting lost is part of the experience.

Edit: I could also be overreacting but stuff like overly quippy characters ruin the experince for me. Especially when they spoil puzzles and constantly remind you of where to go.

@Metazoxan If it were so minor then why make it a whole negative point? Other reviews also point hout how they keep reminding you of stuff way past the tutorial. Idk without playing for myself I will never know and honestly I'm fine with that. Maybe on a deep sale or when some tiem has passed. (Maybe they add an option to shut companions up). Im not here to try and take away anyones fun or interest btw. Incase I came off like that. Im glad the game is getting released and if anything it will be a visually stunning experince.

The negative point about myles bugging you too much is exactly why I won't be getting it. I'm so tired of constantly being told where to go and reminded of stuff in the environment by some npc voice. Let me explore. That's what I want to do in these games. I dont mind more story. But during gameplay shut up and let me make my own decision. Hopefully anyone getzing it doesnt see this as much of a stick up as I see it and can enjoy it. To me though this sounds like the marvelisation of a franchise best known for its atmosphere and to me nithing destroys an atmosphere more than constantly being told what to do.

I cant wait to be told over and over again that I missed something in the world by these marvel rejects. No myles I didnt miss the checkpoint I just wanna explore, shut up! I'll be saving my money, cant believe I'm saying this about prime 4 the game I bought the original switch for. But oh well. I hope those that get it can enjoy it. But this isnt it nintendo. It's the opposite of what it should've been.

Re: Nintendo Debuts Two Metroid Prime 4 Ads As Eight-Year Wait Nears Its End

Simu001

After reading about the myles character, this went from a must have, to a wait until I know how much and many of these types of characters are in it. Out of all the franchises to add marvel humour and they go for metroid..... the fact that this has been a consideration tells me, that they forgot what metroid means to many of us. I hope I'm wrong.......

Re: Round Up: The Final Previews Are In For Metroid Prime 4: Beyond

Simu001

@Ralek85 I get what you're saying and I was hyperbolic in my comment, but to me this is the wrong direction. Having someone yap in your ear during gameplay is the opposite of what metroid is imo. Metroid is about survial in isolation. Imagine metroid dread ans soemone vomstantly making jokes and telling you where to go and just in general talking about stuff. Tension would be gone immediately. Now obviously I haven't played the game so I cannot say how beyond will handle it. I have faith in Retro studios but im more cautios than optimistic. We will see come december. Hopefully we look back and we can say, thank god it didn't turn out to be a deadpool style quip fest.

Re: Round Up: The Final Previews Are In For Metroid Prime 4: Beyond

Simu001

Possibly more whimsy than exploration......oh god please no.....no....dont go the marvel/disney route please.... sigh.... these previews are having me worried. Will be waiting on reviews as well as players impression. But what I've read so far has me worried. Why does every bit of entertainment have to be disney/marvel style? Metroid dread was fantastic..... if prime 4 should fall short, give us prime 2 and 3 pls nintendo.....

Re: Kirby Air Riders Looks To Be Powered By Bandai Namco's New In-House Engine

Simu001

I played the test and I just want to know how the singleplay aspect is gonna be. So far its fun but with just 3 courses and city trial its obviulsy just a very very small portion of the main game. Performance wise it's great and city trial is a lot of fun. What I dont get is that they have accessibility options but you cant freely select them. You have 3 presets though which is better than nothing.

Re: Two Unlisted Metroid Prime 4 Commercials Reveal New Boss Fight

Simu001

Call me a broken record but.... where is Metroid prime 2 and 3? Ninty port them at the least..... or release them on the gamecube online app thingy....you know the one that you basically forgot until you guys remembered you could release luigis mansion on it...( not a complaint on getting Luigi). Man we got a complete pikmin series on switch but metroid doesn't get the same treatment. At least Metroid prime 4 didn't get cancelled, cuz for a while it seemed like it was.

Re: More Switch Games Get Switch 2 Compatibility Fixes

Simu001

@Jeronan I've stopped engaging in this comment thread since my original comment got deleted for trolling, (which it wasn't). Apparently criticism towards the big N is not allowed. Tbh I'm tired of this fanboy echochamber nonsense thats been picking up steam again. I just want to play my switch 1 games and some simply either dont work or have issues. If you advertise your console as backwards compatible and said feature doesnt work, I am gonna complain. Especially if you're gonna advertise the switch 2 as a replacement.

Re: More Switch Games Get Switch 2 Compatibility Fixes

Simu001

@TKundNobody where do i spread hate? I am disappointed but apparently I'm not allowed to voice said disappointment. Their own list of game sthat have issues is incomplete aswell. Nintendo is behind the times in sever aspects, there's no denying that. Plus if I advertise a co sole with full backwards compatibility and then there are issues with said compatibility then customers will be upset and disappointed.... oh and nintendo still hasn't given out devkits to those that need it. So how gan devs fix their games if they dont have access? In that case its on nintendo to fix their emulation code. But nintendo is so good at emulation, that fan afforts regularly blow them out of the water time and time again.... I criticize nintendo because they can and should do better. If that makes me a "hater" (people seem to have forgtotten what hate means) then sure label me a hater

Re: Nintendo Switch 2 System Update 20.5.0 Is Now Live, Here Are The Full Patch Notes

Simu001

@nhSnork you cant tell me that giving me a green or blue or whatever background (not animated) impacts performance....as for the folders being added, I never noticed that so that's on me. Idk to me the switch 2 feels like I said sterile and lifeless. Gone are the little touches. Instead they even removed the eshop music. The switch 2 lacks in personality. It's just so sad to see amd the games seem.to follow suit. Mario kart world for example just recently got an update where they show the question mark pads on the map. Something that should've been there on launch day. Idk nintendo has become a bit like the rest of the industry. Soulless and fix it later mentality....or I am just growing out of one of my favorite hobbies since childhood (at 31yrs old😅)

Re: Nintendo Switch 2 System Update 20.5.0 Is Now Live, Here Are The Full Patch Notes

Nintendo has gotten so boring. Where are the customization options loke different colored backgrounds? Why can I not use my screenshots for background image? Still no themes? New profile pictures? Why can I not make my own without using the premade stuff from nintendo? Still no folders? The switch 2 doesnso many things right and yet I havent used it since bananza came out....it's just so sterile.....when series x has more personality than switch 2 well......

Re: New Kirby amiibo Will Apparently Be Nintendo's "Most Expensive amiibo Ever"

Simu001

@Thomystic themes or simply more colors. It's still just black and white and its boring and lacks personality. It's so sterile feeling. A good folder system like every other console. E ahop is still lacking an add to cart feature which means you have to buy everything separately. Every other console has a shopping cart. Even the ps3 had one..... you're profile picture has to be premade using stuff nintendo gives you. You cant upload your own pictures on it like once again evedy other console. Stuff like this is so basic yet nintendo misses it completely. It's baffling really

Re: Nintendo Is "Acting To Protect The Industry" With Switch 2 Game Key Cards, Says Ex-Capcom Composer

"Do you think a company that’s already made that much profit would do this just to make even more money?" Yes, yes I do since these companies have proven time and time again that they WILL milk every single cent out of you. Also the comment about reserves makes me sick. They have soooo much money but if a game doesnt selll 10 gazillion copies the studio gsts shuttered. Yes I'm hyperbolic here but we've seen the closures not too long ago. All the microtransactions in games just to make more money. Day one dlc. Broken launch becaus ethey couldnt take another 6 months? C'mon its greed....nothing but greed....

Re: New Kirby amiibo Will Apparently Be Nintendo's "Most Expensive amiibo Ever"

Simu001

Another ninento L. I loathe confident nintendo. The pokemon patent BS. The ridiculous out of touch pricing of everything nintendo has a hand in. The lack of basic features missing in both switch 1 and switch 2. The fact that nintendo games are now gettint in on the trend of missing features at launch which should be common sense... Idk. At 31 it's probably me and I'm turning into the cloud yelling Grandpa, but all of this in combination with how nintendo treats consumers just makes me less and less excited to buy their games.... modern gaming sucks. Take Borderlands 4 for example. Fun game but crashed 3 times in 4 hours of playing..... sucks to see one of my hobbies suffering like this...

Re: Warframe Devs On Switch 2 Version: "Thanks To Our Friends At Nintendo, We Are On It"

Simu001

This game has the same problem as destiny. Its incomprehensible for newcomers imo. I played it years ago before the plains of eidolon (I think that is what it was called) update. And it skiped me to the new expansion. However in doing that i missed all context for the story and well it just threw up tutorials after tutorials which didnt explain much and I needed to watch guides to understand all the new systems. Which turned me off the game pretty quickly. Atleast that's what I remember

Re: Talking Point: Is Hollow Knight: Silksong Too Difficult?

Simu001

It's probably my age, but I've never beaten hollow knight. Im also struggling a bit with cronos new dawn. Though for different reasons than Hollow Knight. This is the main reason I'm not gonna attempt Silksong. I'm kinda past overly difficult games (for the most part) and just wanna chill
