Well, for now, it's all what I've played on this week. Have a nice gaming weekend, everyone.

@link12684 Sounds like a lame excuse.
Also, shall I remind that Nintendo (of America and Europe, in most cases) censores other games as well? Fire Emblem series is notorious for having a lof of censorship outside of Japan.
Famicom Detective Club remakes were censored outside of Japan.
Tōkyō Mirage Switch port is based on a censored (localized) Wii U port. Nintendo of Japan even apologized back then for not informing Japanese players about this thing, lol.

Fate/EXTELLA LINK – beaten the 2nd route. Started the 3rd route. Beaten Stages 1, 20, and 21.
Crypt of the NecroDancer – beaten Zones 1, 2, 3, and 4 as Chaunter. Out of Synchrony DLC three newcomers, Chaunter is the hardest to play as, BUT, he's quite a cool character. And, imo, he's one of the coolest characters in the game.
And, beaten all 5 Zones in online multiplayer (4 players) as Suzu. My teammates were Steam users and they've played the game as Coda(!) and Monk. It was amazing to play the game with the experienced Coda and Monk players. Also, online works really good!
Reigns: Game of Thrones – bought the entire Reigns series for 4,49$USD on NA eShop!
GoT was the only one game that I've played at this moment. Unlocked Tyrion and Cersei Lannisters.
Crossing Souls – bought on sale for 1,99$. I've played the game years ago on Windows, but was unable to finish it. Just started the game and played it 'till the first checkpoint. Chapter 1.
I was supposed to play UNDER NIGHT IN-BIRTH II [Sys:Celes], since we finally got Ogre, but...
ARC SYSTEM WORKS delayed Ogre for Switch users! On purpose! Dizzy for Switch version of Strive was releasing on the same day as Ogre, so it's why they delayed him on... On a WHOLE WEEK! 😡 I hate them for this selfish move. But, somehow, Switch users got Ogre earlier than intended... Only EU Switch players. While NA (and probably JP) Switch users will get Ogre only on February 26/27! Modern ASW is one of the worst FGs developers/publishers that exists nowadays. I'll never forgive them for their disgusting selfishness, and the other, bigger sins...
Well, for now, it's all what I've played on this week. Have a nice gaming weekend, everyone.

Crypt of the NecroDancer – finally bought Synchrony DLC! Beaten the game as Suzu and Klarinetta. And played some online multiplayer.
Well, for now, it's all what I've played on this week. Have a nice gaming weekend, everyone.

Re: Round Up: The First Impressions Of Capcom Fighting Collection 2 Are In

@JohnnyMind Also, it would be great if they based their releases on superior console versions(mainly PS2 ones, I guess).
@MonsterMasterJ They thought that including 1st game would be worthless extra effort, since 2nd game features all characters from the 1st game. It's my guess. Also, CAPCOM is probably aware of the fact that most people (including me) demands JP-only PS1 enhanced port of the 1st game, which has some kind of Story Mode and extra playable characters. It's still stuck in Japan. 😔
Though, they have included the 1st CVS game, which makes little to no sense in this case...

Re: Talking Point: Which 'Tales' Game Will Come To Switch Next?

Vyacheslav333

1. «Tales of» series, not just «Tales».
2. Initially, Tales of Arise wasn't supposed to be a Tales of game at all.
3. «Namco would be foolish not to package Xillia 1 & Xillia 2 together.»
Haha! Look at Nintendo! They rereleased only 1st Metroid Prime game, not the entire Metroid Prime Trilogy. Why? Money.
4. I'd like to see Abyss or Phantasia. Xillia dilogy would be nice as well, but I don't think that BANDAI NAMCO want to spend that much money by rereleasing two games in one package.
Also... NAMCO, where are our SoulCalibur and TEKKEN collections, huh!?

Re: "Capcom And SNK" Inspired Fighter Blazing Strike Outlines Plans For 2025

Vyacheslav333

@Erigen 😁

Well, besides the lack of beta, there was quite a total radio silence between and AFTER the delays announcements. People (including me) just started to think that the game was cancelled, because of the complete lack of feedback from the developer and publisher.
«Also, have you watched the Top 8 of this game during Frosty Faustings?»
I've heard about it and have seen a bit of it. It was disastrous. 😂

Re: "Capcom And SNK" Inspired Fighter Blazing Strike Outlines Plans For 2025

Vyacheslav333

@Erigen It wasn't ignored by FGC. Steam reviews and EventHubs review proved that Blazing Strike was a flop of a FG. And its constant delays with radio silence didn't help the game either. I've been waiting for Blazing Strike for all these years, since its very announcement, for only to be disappointed by the final product. 😔
«Ignored here too.». Erm, besides me and a few other users, almost nobody really cares about FGs here, sadly. I am the only one who plays them here on a regular basis as well, lol.
Also, Blazing Strike received NL's review, which was a quite surprising thing. And... It got 8/10, lol. Yeah, NL lacks reviewers who are into FGs like me.
«Game just had too many things holding it back.»
Well, it has enough cons that are big ones and are impossible to ignore, though.

Re: Opinion: Miiverse Was Fine, But Does Anybody Really Want It Back In 2025?

Vyacheslav333

And now, on Switch, we don't have any normal way to communicate with each other, lol...
We even cannot invite friends into games. It's so lame.
XBOX 360 was quite known for its communication abilities, no? So, what happened? Why people tend to forget good and useful things?
Like, umbrella was initially used to protect one from sun, not rain. And now, if you'll try to go out with umbrella to protect yourself from sun during summer, people will make jokes of you... 😡

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (1st February)

MARVEL SUPER HEROES – beaten the game as Magneto, Blackheart, and Psylocke.
Shadows of the DAMNED Hella Remastered – finished the game! Well, it's an usual good Suda51's game – everything is, at least, good... Besides gameplay. Gameplay there is quite average. Well, game has a bit more cons than the aforementioned one:
Garcia can't jump. Some upgrades almost don't make anything. Puzzles are worse than average. Fights with mid-bosses are poor. Fights with bosses are poor. Final boss fight is poor. Some mechanics and upgrades only makes extra artificial difficulty. Shoot 'em up segments are annoying. Some characters didn't have enough screentime/weren't written good enough. Japanese localization is bad. Japanese voice actors(seiyūs) cast consists of known Japanese actors, like Chiaki Kuriyama and Tomorowo Taguchi, not seiyūs! Why?! Also, some of them, if not all of them are miscasted. Just compare Christopher in original English voice-over with his Japanese dub counterpart. The difference is like between Earth and sky.
I'm a fan of Suda51, so, it received 7/10 from me. Objectively, it deserves 6/10, and NL reviewer's 6/10 score is a deserved one.
Suda51's games are about cool and interesting characters, style, plot, music... Gameplay? Probably average at best, lol.
Well, for now, it's all what I've played on this week. Have a nice gaming weekend, everyone.
