Open worlds need to die. This crap has been infesting games for long enough
Chances are, your game's world isn't as good as Skyrim, Breath of the Wild, or Red Dead Redemption. Unless they can ACTUALLY hit those marks, just do smaller worlds
To be honest I'm glad I decided to wait on getting a switch 2 and this game. Sounds like it's a mess right now. Hopefully after a year or so of updates they deliver on what it should have been at launch.
Just like that, all interest lost. I have wanted a version of WotL that actually runs well for years. I found the PSP version unplayable. I've played the CRAP out of the OG. There's not really anything here for me.
How many civs can be active in one game? I always played on small maps anyway, but with like 8 civs or so. Bigger maps feel like it takes forever to get anywhere
I have some of the older ones and they've been great for me, though I liked my binboks more. I don't see a need to upgrade especially at this point in the switch's life
I've made my peace with moving to digital eventually. I draw my line at streaming. With my lifestyle having sometimes unreliable Internet, that's where I'll cut it off and be a "retro" gamer.

Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Metroid Prime 4: Beyond
@Jack_Goetz and this is another Nintendo-centric complaint of mine
Stop making us beat the game to play on the difficulty we wanted to start on in the first place

Re: Switch 2's First Warhammer 40,000 Game Isn't The One You Might Expect
@CJD87 I would say it's more like Wasteland or XCOM meets BG3

Re: Final Fantasy Tactics Remaster Controversially Cuts War Of The Lions Content
