List wonky as hell

Oof that first con is a big one for me

Sounds great but I don't wanna buy it at full price

@Thumbsofsteel don't forget kirby

I beat it yesterday. I don't understand the praise tbh. I found it fun enough, with decent combat and platforming sections. But the relics weren't very interesting, the enemy variety isn't good, the environments are uninteresting, weapon upgrades suck, and worst of all, it barely feels like Castlevania. I know people are enjoying ripping anyone who says that apart, but there's just very little here to remind you you're playing a Castlevania game. Mostly it feels like diet Lost Crown/Blasphemous, with a few nods here and there and some Gothic architecture. Besides that the music is incredibly unmemorable and the zones are quite large, so you'll hear the same unmemorable tune on loop for like 1-2 hours at a time

I'd say it's a 6/10. Decent, not great

Beat it today. It was extremely aggressively ok

Sounds pretty neat, I'll keep an eye on this one

Oh it's coraaall

Seems good but not great, and that's really all I hoped for

I'll be sure to stay far far away from that

Folks that have played it, how's the draw distance and pop in?

Really looking forward to this one

Eh I don't really trust famitsu at all tbh. I hope it's good but it's so weird that there's only the switch 1 version

What's up with the weird blinking glow around characters? Is it a lighting thing, or something on my end??

@Maxz I actually completely agree with that review from what I've played, 70 hours in

I'm having trouble with the game. I gave it my all in Cai's path, recruited everyone I could, did all side quests and paralogues I could. Then I did Dietrichs and mopped up some of the stuff not done on Cai's. But damn I'm 70 hours into the game now. I started Theodora and I'm just completely burnt out at least on act 1. The busy work and samey stuff in the first act just grated on me.

I guess I'll either take a break or just move to act 2, but it feels like I'm missing out on a big part of the game if I do that. The game is WAY too big and unfocused imo. I've greatly enjoyed myself with it but damn I'm tired of doing the same things over and over with slight story differences

Also really wish they'd tone it down with all the dialogue. Just shut up and let me kill stuff

Christ here we go, golden age was fun while it lasted

Figured this was gonna happen

Of course people are whining that it isn't exactly like the other fifty-eleven Castlevanias they've already played ad nauseum

Had my eye on this on steam for a long while, glad it's coming to switch

An 8. My biggest issue is that it's just too big. I'm 30 hours in closing on the end of Cai's path. If they're all that long, I'll be lucky to do two more protagonists, much less see the later parts of the game

They did well with the mario rabbid games. I've wanted to see a Mario RPG style game but with Zelda for forever. They should get someone on that

Yeah I'm not paying for that. Hope it crashes and burns in their face

That's my wolverine

Not supporting slop

I think I'll pass. This isn't for me at all

Been wanting to play adventures for forever. Damn good direct today

@Ryoma the late 2000s weren't great for them either. But yeah around the time of resident evil 7 they started getting their act back together and if they bring back breath of fire and final fight then I'll consider this their 2nd golden age

That's good. I'm enjoying the game despite the insanely uneven difficulty

Actually I take that back. I WAS enjoying the game until every boss fight became Sekiro. Every normal enemy encounter is baby's first action game. It's gotten to where I dread finding a boss, and that happens frequently, so I think I'm done for now

Bought pragmata earlier this week and Onimusha today. Enjoying both

Not expecting or even wanting it to reinvent the wheel. I just want a good wheel

Those screenshots don't seem funny

That's neat. I just sold world. I never saw the same enjoyment from my family with it as I did 8. Maybe I'll get it again in a few years if they keep adding to it

I loved this game in split screen. Unfortunately it had a game breaking bug halfway through that was a big deal

I hope it's actually substantial content

Just seems like a cringey cash in

Someone spilled coke on the internet

Fludd was not my cup of tea at all. I still had some good times with it but even back then I wasn't big on it

I didn't even like this game when it was new so I'll pass. Wish they'd bring more star fox

Lmao no I got bills

This sounds great. I'll be checking it out

Insanely out of place

Those make it sound good not great, which is what I expected from them. They don't seem capable of making a great game

Optimistic for this, but engage burned me pretty bad. Hope it's more along 3 houses than that

That's just silly

30 fps is fine by me. It's a bit of a shock going from 60 to 30 but after a while I get back used to it

Idk why they thought that was a good idea in the first place. Gamers have been annoyed with it since OoT

Awesome possum. Good game. I've been waiting to play more of it, when it was patched and I got a mobapad. Joycon sticks just don't do it for me in shooters

It's a good game but it doesn't even run well on ps5

I remember people walking into traffic and pokemon going to the polls that's about it

I tried it but lived in the woods and all I ever saw were pigeons and rats
