I don't see the issue with Fortnite copying Among Us. It's not like people will stop playing Among Us wholesale just because Fortnite Impostors mode exists. If anything, it might turn more people on to the Mafia/Werewolf concept all within a game they already play. And if they're curious, they could always check out Among Us to see where they cribbed the idea.
If Among Us is that greatly affected by this, then maybe it's time for Among Us to evolve. PUBG had to improve because of Fortnite. And Apex Legends jumped in because they did something the other two didn't. It's an all-around win.
Hell, this might force Innersloth to drop the quickchat wheel and bring back the chat functionality for all players that made the game a phenomenon in the first place. If we get a better Among Us out of this whole deal, then that's splendid.
That seems like hilarious overkill for Knuckles' voice. Now I'm thinking along the lines of Morgan Freeman as Big the Cat or Daniel Day-Lewis as Shadow the Hedgehog.
The Last Campfire. The premise might be a little macabre and at times can feel sad but that makes it all the more remarkable just how hopeful the game is underneath it all. It's a game about helping people struggling with regret, doubt, fear and loneliness and moving forward from the past no matter how much it hurts. It is a truly uplifting game that believes in the good inside us all.
I read that headline as 'Supernatural' detective game and now I'm bummed I won't be playing as the Winchester Brothers fighting evil and cracking wise.
This court case is the gift that keeps on giving. Whether it's actual revelations about the games industry's inner workings or inane cross examinations, I got the popcorn bucket ready to go with every new article published.
I've learned the words Paraiba Tourmaline today. This article was equally informative as it was entertaining.
And no yall, magical enchantments and ancient cosmic magic don't raise the value of the gemstones themselves! Gold is still gold no matter how much Sauron and Smeagol salivated over Bilbo's not-wedding band!
@Mando44646 What’s wrong with Tencent? My general impression is they buy stake in everything and just collect money. I mean they own stake in both Epic Games (Fortnite) and Krafton (PUBG) and those companies still compete in the battle royale genre as if nothing changed.
I found it to be a very relatable story about the anxieties and difficulties of trying to figure things out as a college student. I imagine these are the same themes Night in the Woods explores except with platforming and anthropomorphic animals.
I wouldn't mind if Hustle Kings made its way to Switch. That game had a great tutorial that taught me more about pool in 20 minutes than I had learned in 15 years of poorly playing pool.
@Nintendoforlife My goodness, I didn't realize I needed NBA player amiibo until now lol. I want to scan a Kawhi Leonard amiibo into Breath of the Wild ASAP!
@Sligeach Nintendo seems so averse to just making a great Star Fox game like the SNES original or Star Fox 64. It's what every fan of the series wants. Nothing more, nothing less. No gimmicky controls. Amazing graphics. Smooth online multiplayer. What's so hard about that?
It's the same frustrating reasoning they use for not making F-Zero games. At least they try making new Star Fox games. But that's not saying much.
@Jukilum As I recall, Miyamoto only said those things about DKC because the higher ups wanted him to use those types of graphics for Yoshi's Island when he really wanted to do something different visually (which he did).
So, what I'm getting from the comments here is everyone just wanted to play a refined version of the same game they played in 2004 with a couple new ideas thrown into the mix? People hate on the New Super Mario Bros. games for being too similar but I guess if it's been a few years, everyone's okay with playing the same thing. I'm not saying Sticker Star doesn't have issues (I haven't played it yet) but it's sad to see people would rather Nintendo release the same stuff but slightly remixed.

Re: Review: Kunai - Pacing Problems Undermine This Otherwise Likeable Roguelike
Yeah, it's...not a roguelike from the few hours I've played so far. However, it definitely is a Metroidvania.
