@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
@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😅)
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......
@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
"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....
@SpaceboyScreams yeah feelsmloke we need to remind nintendo who brings in the money. I know I wont be getting their next console. Switch 2 is what the switch 1 should have been and with that I'm content, not happy but content. But this ridiculous pricing is telling me leave, you're not the customer we want.
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...
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
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
I dont understand how nintendo could look at this drab lifeless game and decided yep this looks good. It looks depressing. No color, no flashy animations. No cool character designs. Nothing it's so barebones looking. Add the gameplay which looks boring and I fail to see selling point.....
I'm usually a wimp when it comes to horror games. But I can't wait for Cronos. Though I'll probably play it on pc. If the port is good I may double dip on a sale.
I could never finish HK so I'm not gonna be bothering with silksong. That means any game that delays because of silksong hurts a bit. But I understand the reasoning
I hate it when nintendo is overconfident and in the top spot. Because it always leads to BS liek this. Though Sony and Microsoft aren't mich better in that regard.....
By extrapoliting the resolution of the fingerprint smudges with the indirect capture footage, while keeping glare in mind, I have come to the following expert conclusion.... the game runs on switch 2 at the resolition it runs at. The fps is existent with the occasional non existence. As an expert in analyzing nothing I state therefore: It runs on switch 2. Thank you all for your time.
@rjejr depends on how fast you are but I estimate around 4 hours. I didn't time it though. According to how long to beat it seems 3 to 5 hours is the timespan
The game struggles on any hardware. Even on PC it seems inconsistent depending on your pc build. Fromsoft is known for making fnatadtic games with really bad optimization
Just started playing it. Needed to get used to the inverted camera BUT man is this game oozing charme. How I missed this back in the day i do not know but playing it now is well worth it
I wish I could get into system shock but I just can't. I get past the intro and then get lost immediately and then die. Early on an alarm goes of because of pressure or something and I cannot deal with time sensitive spikes like these when I have no layout of the map. So I just get lost, run in circles and then die. Everything looks the same. I get its a classic but having never played the originals and now coming back it just is so unclear where to go and what to do. It just confuses me. Interestingly enough no issues liem.that with bioshock or prey so.... it a me problem but not one I can do much about. Other than playing with a walkthrough at which point I might just watch a lets play. Glad about the physical for those that want it. Hopefully LGR delivers (heard many bad stories about them)
Unreal Engine 5 is the culprit. I have a pretty beefy pc but every game running on UE5 struggles. Whether its performance or glitches galore. Everyone hopping on it in Order to make it industry standard, yet it's still un unomptimezed mess that NEEDS upscaling amd AI tricks to run normally. Its a wonder this runs on switch 1 at all.
@SalvorHardin yeah i guess the implementation is what makes it so unappealing. Also not having a good way to track your progress and having a near useless Map also makes it less of a joy. Exploring is something they got right with the zeldas but MKW just doesnt have that same appeal. The map itself just doesnt grab me as much as Hyrule did. It feels like an afterthought.
Idk but MKW is just so boring for me. Most other Mario Karts have more for singpleplaayer people like me. But the open world is just not fun to drive around in. they are tooo slow imo and the wordl.to big and empty. Got all the costumes but now I dont feel like continuing. The track themselves are fine but needing them to be part of an open world seem to have put a leash on creativity. Im glad I got in in the Bundle. Its not a bad game but it's just......barebones I guess.
I'll catch the round up und summaries. But I'm looking forward to it. Mario Kart World ran out of steam for me very very quickly. Hopefully this will have more stuff for us single player folks
Herdling is the only one im even vaguely imterested....so this has been a nothingburger for me. Yeah it's indie games but man all big console launches have been....underwhelming.... imo.
Havent finished the base game so might aswell to that first. Though I gotta say for as charming as it is. I couldn't stick with it for long. Idk why but i just fall off very quickly.
I've already gotten rid of nintendo today or whatever it was called. I have too many apps for all sorts of nonsense that get used maybe once or twice. I'm trying to digitally declutter
