Re: Xbox Boss Phil Spencer Would Love To See Call Of Duty On Nintendo Switch

SteamEngenius

I wouldn't mind a CoD on Switch just to try it with the gyro controls.

Last one I bought was Black Ops 2 on Xbox 360. Haven't really seen any reason to continue with the sameness of them yet, and now they've reverted to just redoing games. Although MW2 is the pinnacle of the franchise.

I'm sure it could be done since Overwatch 2 runs a stable 30fps and it has a whole bunch more going on at any given time than any CoD match. Although CoD maps are much more detailed.

Either way it would be a super low priority game for me since it's been downhill to me for 15 years.

Re: Review: Ultra Kaiju Monster Rancher - Bigger Means Better In This Monster Raising Sim

SteamEngenius

The original Monster Rancher was one of my favorite games ever. I had hundreds of my mom's music CDs labeled with what monster it gave lol.

This looks pretty cool but nothing they try can recapture the magic of generating monsters through CDs.

@VoidofLight Yeah the review came off as not being very familiar with MR games and having no clue that grinding stats is basically the game.

Re: UK Switch Sales Rise In September Thanks To Splatoon 3's Meteoric Opening

SteamEngenius

How is it due to Splatoon if it's in 4th? Lol

@Dezzy70 I guess I'll say it for the umpteenth time..it's not feasible to do a Switch Pro with China constantly threatening Taiwan, which makes 60% of the worlds semiconductors. They'd have to dramatically increase the price and still have a mass shortage. Ah why bother, I don't think anybody here understands video game world doesn't exist solely by itself out of real world conflict.

Re: Overwatch 2 Teams Up With McDonald's In Limited Time Promo, Unlock An Epic Tracer Skin

SteamEngenius

I don't use Tracer. Nor do I eat McDonald's very often.

They should of picked a fatty for the promotion like Roadhog though.

@Friendly Lol what? I play like 5 different f2p games all the time and I've yet to see an ad in one. Unless you mean shop promotions? Takes all of 1/5th of a second to dismiss those.

@LittIeZ It's very free to play without the sarcasm quotes as the cosmetics are overpriced and the battle pass is bad, thus making me not want to spend a penny while still enjoying playing it and I've already unlocked everyone except the new character. Doesn't get more f2p than that.

@KnightsTemplar Me. I think you'll find the vast majority of people won't boycott companies or not play their games due to unpleasant behavior by a few employees of a MASSIVE faceless corporation, that's the very loud vocal minority who thrive on likes and thumbs up. Plus it's free and not $60 + continued NSO subscription if you want to play online.

Re: Talking Point: Given The Voice Artist Controversy, Will You Be Boycotting Bayonetta 3?

SteamEngenius

Hahaha no. I'm not depriving myself of something in this short life because someone else feels entitled to something.

There were MANY ways for her to have gone about this (DiMaggio holding out on Futurama to get the entire VA cast more pay recently comes to mind) but waiting two weeks before the game comes out and going on a social media rant is NOT the right way to go about it.

I'm sure they could have come to an agreement, there's no way $4k was their bottom line offer. Seems she got offended and self important, said no, they replaced her and now she's crying for us to boycott?

God I hate social media. Also don't forget that $4k is for about 20 hours of work. Total. $200 an hour (most likely more) to talk seems pretty sweet to me.

Re: Talking Point: Which Animation Studios Should Tackle Nintendo's Other Franchises?

SteamEngenius

Metroid or Zelda would probably be the only ones I'd be interested in.

The Bayonetta movie was pretty good if it looked like every other anime ever though. Hmm I wonder how much they paid her for that compared to the $4k offering for Bayo 3...

@duffmmann I bet they have something like that planned if the Mario movie does well enough, which I'm sure it will since people will even watch those horrible Sonic movies.

Re: Bayonetta's OG Voice Actor Asks Fans To "Boycott" Third Game After PlatinumGames Wage Fallout

SteamEngenius

Hey I called it when it was first announced. Figured they tried to be cheap and she said no. She should have grouped with the other VAs and not sign until they got better pay like DiMaggio did with Futurama.

That said, I couldn't care less if she's involved or what crimes the company behind the game has committed (you can bet they've almost all done their share, most worse than a little sexy harassment).

Boycott a game because she didn't get paid enough?! Haha...yeah not gonna happen. I'll continue to enjoy Blizzard games as well because I don't care about the nonsense behind the doors because SPOILER: every large company is going to do evil and have bad people there.

Re: Overwatch 2 Reaches 25 Million Players In The First 10 Days

SteamEngenius

It's been quite a fun experience and runs remarkably well on the Switch even with all the chaos going on. A great addition to it's library that will still be relevant in years most likely. Only had some weird experiences lately after the wreck of a launch as well.

If they improve the BP in the future to make it return your in-game currency (or just make the free pass not so horrible) I may get it but not with how bad it is now.

Still trying to get 50 wins to unlock competitive mode so I'll at least get some more focused and balanced matches.
