Lot of people complaining Splatoon 3 is unneeded or not worth it. We have very little to go on aside from the reveal trailer.

People need to learn not to jump the gun.

Bit of a tangent comment, so forgive me.

So Skyward Sword loses points for a traversal feature being locked by an Amiibo? Okay, that’s actual sound reasoning for a deduction.

But Monster Hunter Stories 2 loses points for being too “grindy” when it’s an RPG? I’m sorry but what….?

I’m aware the reviewers for the two games in question are different, but I’m sure the review policy/structure is the same for all reviewers.

And I think it needs a review itself.

Uh oh, two trigger phrases.

“Gacha” and “Mobile Games”

Time for people in the comments to express their disgust at the genres like usual. /s

Anyways, sign me up! Love the Bravely Default series and I’m excited to try this out.

@Liam_Doolan
You’re welcome for the update NL.

I said it all this time that it was a misprint, given the game’s file-size. Though so many people jumped the gun and were adamant they would no longer get the game.

Someone from NL needs to update the article regarding the game not being fully on the cart.

As it turns out, it is indeed a printing error;

@Lyricana
Couldn’t of put it better myself.

Saying that a universally accepted part of ANY JRPG is now a negative is just silly..

An RPG falling into “grindy territory” is now a negative for an RPG…?

Should of been a 9/10 with the only issues being performance. Which I’m fairly sure will get some sort of optimisation through updates/patches.

If my game purchases were determined by metascore alone, I’d probably be unhappy lmao

@Mince
My “problem” is that it helps to do your research. Your initial comment was ignorant to the possibilities if it being a mistake when others had already brought it up before you.

And I’m very sure that I am older than you already, so the condescending tone and life lecture about what being mad truly looks like is pointless.

The Pokemon TCG is honestly dead to me, I’m so glad I stopped collecting several years ago.

@JaxonH

Even with both mine and your comments, people are still clearly jumping the gun and wishing ill on Capcom because of it.

Reading comprehension does wonders, just a shame not everyone uses it.

As for everyone else in the comments still overlooking/unaware; The game is listed as 13.5GB in the eshop.

Digital version aside, even IF MHS2 was on an 8GB cartridge, I have a very hard time believing an extra download of 15GB is necessary. That would make it a total of 24GB. 10.5GB bigger than the size stated for the digital download

Even with a Day 1 Patch. Seems to me this is likely just a printing error/typo.

@Mince
Sounds like someone’s mad.

Y’know, reading other people’s comments regarding the file-size of the game would do you a world of good.

@Nintendo4Sonic
So you played it once and didn’t like it, then upon realising it’s a F2P game, decided to trash it because of the game genre because it “wasn’t for you”.

Move on lmao.

@SortingHat
“You get things for free by your parents once you earn or save your own money you'll soon understand what we go thru.“

I’m not exactly sure I understand why you even needed to assume something like that in the first place.

I’m in my mid-twenties with my own flat, paying my own bills and purchasing my own luxuries. I think I’m more than qualified to throw my hat in the ring.

And being skeptical is fine wen it comes to making purchases.You evaluate all the pros and cons of something before biting the bullet on getting it.

That said, this was a 90 second trailer and people are already calling it disappointing when they barely know anything.

Skeptical? Sure. Jumping the gun? Very much so.

BotW2 and SMTV won it for me.

Don't care for the Metroid series at all so it's a pass for me.

Guessing BoTW2 doesn't live up to the hype, going by how so many people are whining and disappointed.

Glad that's not me, thankfully.

This looks fantastic and I can't wait till it comes out next year (fingers crossed).

And now we wait for Xenoblade Chronicles X to finally get ported to Switch.

Definitely buying these.

Though whether I should buy the one at a time is a decison I need to make.

Not getting the same excitement I did from the DS game tbh

The artstyle is giving me Astal Chain vibes and I'm here for all of it!

Instant buy for sure!

This should of been the DLC that Super Mario Party should of gotten.

Nintendo really snubbing everyone who bought it last year (Including me).

I'm interested.

Wonder if anyone "broke"

Will pick up Golf Story with it being half the price now.

SMAAAAAAAAAAAASH!

Seems like a rather trivial thing for people to get bent out of shape over honestly. And that’s coming from someone fully supportive of reaction videos/channels.

Regardless, people will still do it anyway.

Rubs hands together

I’m ready!

Oh no-

Anyways.

Nobody else thinking that Coro…mon is an somewhat poorly timed name given the pandemic?

@BoostPower
I am laughing inexplicably aloud right now.

@AstroTheGamosian
He basically started this latest current trend in Pokemon cards for YouTubers and the like.

@Mr-Fuggles777
Oh for sure, even before all of this the TCG had it’s own inflation cor various cards, boosters and everything else.

But ever since it became a main-stream thing just because, it’s spiralled out of control.

Logan Paul really messed the TCG up for the worse.

Opened the floodgates to scalpers and people buying the cards en-masse just for a profit.

@JR150
It doesn’t matter if there’s no direct competition or if they’re different demographics.

Sales for either game can still be affected by the other. That’s just basic business if two products are in the same market.

A 5/10 rating….Really?

That’s incredibly harsh and if I’m honest, probably stems from the reviewers bias of it being a F2P game offering micro-transactions.

People who purchase the premium pass have no advantage whatsoever over those who don’t. It get’s you all the locked characters sure, but that doesn’t mean they’ll instantly win every game when it basically boils down to luck, skill and timing.

As others have echoed, white bomber is OP and he’s a standard character everyone can use.

As for the long loading times to find a match, I’ve not once been put off or tempted to stop playing because of it.

What’s more, the time spent waiting for a match is easily overshadowed by how long you can actually be playing in one.

I’m currently level 11 and rank 12 on both the passes, played well over 50 games and even came 2nd in one match. (Lost due to placing a bomb in the wrong spot). And all of that was with the white bomber character.

I’m in agreement that the loading times need to be improved and it seems a fix is on the way. It all comes down to an individual's patience.

The ONLY negative I have, is that creating private rooms to play with friends is locked behind the premium pass. It’s a bummer, but not a deal breaker.

The main draw to play this game is the battle royale mode anyway.

If I’m honest, the review is way too harsh. That said, the person reviewing it clearly has their own criteria and if they didn’t enjoy it that much, that’s fine.

I’m having a blast though (pun intended ;P)

@Low_ink
It seems you don’t have any idea just what goes into developing games.

I’m beyond amped that the update is coming next week.

Now if only we could get the bugs ironed out that still plague the Switch version.

@Sparrowhawk
Considering the Switch fully supports UE5, it’s practically confirmed to be on Switch/Switch Pro.

Not to mention DQXI sold far better on Switch than it did on PS4.

Would this be the first game confirmed for Switch to run in Unreal Engine 5?

@Scrubicius
As the article now says, the exploit has been fixed.

@neufel
I’m not saying that the people who managed to grab it won’t have it removed or the licence revoked.

But that it’s a possibility they may get to keep it.

We have to remember here that while it happened on the PSN store several times, that’s a different company entirely. There’s also a fact that that this slip-up seems to be entirely EU server-side related. Different countries and regions have different laws, policies and clauses.

It’ll be interesting for sure to see what happens from here.

@carlos82
I wouldn’t blame Nintendo for doing just that.

However the exploit is entirely their fault, so they can’t really blame people for grabbing it.

I live in the UK with a UK/EU account.

Just tried to get it and it’s says the purchase bonus is listed as “not available for purchase”

Think it’s been fixed now.

@Bearzilla823
Sarcasm never converts well online, even if it’s done decently.

For future reference though, using an “/s” helps.

Amazon UK also has the water bottle as a pre-order bonus.

I went ahead and got my copy there.

DAY. 1. PURCHASE.

Looking more and more fantastic with every trailer.

BDSP box-art is pretty nice not gonna lie. WAY better than SWSH’s for sure.

Looking at them reminds me of the Japanese movie poster for the Rise of Darkrai movie.

@Ulysses
I purchased the SWSH dual-pack on Amazon for £94.99. Each of the games were £49.99 at the time of release, so I saved £5 by grabbing the dual-pack instead.

Not a huge saving, but it’s money that stayed in my bank.
