@mazzel They are laughable though. Every update the game gets is filled with comments from the same group of users bad mouthing the game because their hacks have been taken away.
Beat the game and never had to grind a single thing. The comments here are laughable. If anything the game is designed so well that you aren't forced into doing something a specific way.
Then I won't be buying it and will continue to play the decomps instead. Fans have already made multiple playable Amy mods including a fantastic one that released recently. There are tons of great smaller games on Switch that are complete on cart, but Sega is just too lazy.
@rockodoodle We doing this song and dance again? How is it the hardware's fault when there's clearly more demanding games running better on the system? Whenever the Switch 2 releases, there will no doubt be titles released for it that will perform poorly as well.
They have the pack up on GAME, but it will have £5 delivery charge (cause GAME suck.) I'll be cancelling my order there if I manage to snag the pack elsewhere.
I'm going to guess they aren't going to spoil much at all. They'll go over things such as weapon making and vehicle building. They aren't going to spoil the entire game in 10 minutes.
I remember not being very happy with the game when it first came out due to lots of small issues I thought needed tweaking. Was quite happy with the last patch and balance they did so seeing another update is surprising. They really care about the game.
I just love how their solution to crashing in certain areas is to reduce the number of Pokemon/NPCs on screen. Honestly laughable. This engine is completely broken and unoptimized.
I hope they can finally dripfeed us some older titles people have been asking for. WW/TP, Paper Mario TTYD, Maybe Pikmin 1 and 2 so we'd have all 4 on one system.
I fail to see why we're supposed to believe the stick is 8-way just because it's different from the original. Sticks, buttons, etc were changed all of the time. It may be bad for Billy's case since he claimed he used unmodified hardware, but it could be argued it's just cosmetic. Not on anyone's side here as I think both parties are losers.
Gotta love the posts of people saying they never had drift therefore it isn't an issue. I've had a pair of Joycons since 2019 and they haven't drifted, so I guess Nintendo fixed it since 2019? When in reality Nintendo have used the same sticks since day 1 on all their Joycons and will drift eventually.
The sales keep increasing while the games' quality keeps decreasing. Where's the line exactly? Children or parents buying it is one thing, but the vocal fans online are seemingly proud about what's happening to the series.
@BenAV They are buying it and from the comments I've read they'll let you know how proud they are about it. It's really bizarre how the fanbase does not care about the quality of the product just as long as it has name of said product on it. I don't know where the line is for them.
I wonder how much crunch time you'd find if GameFreak were investigated. This game should have been released at least a year from now. I feel like some of these aggressive techniques in order to save the framerate (which didn't help much) were done because it was pushed out earlier than expected.
Beware of 1st Press Games. They are extremely slow to the point where you could be waiting years for your order. They will also block you on Twitter if you question them or ask for refunds and hide negative replies. Terrible company.
@BTB20 Why do you even care if people request new hardware? You literally lose nothing if we get new hardware since you're already happy with the choppy performance. These types of responses are the equivalent of "dude just turn off your brain!"
Got my order in and the only reason how I was able to was because I was at my PC when the email came it. About 5 minutes later the site stopped working. Hasn't worked since either.
@hayface I got it from Play-Asia for about £35 after using my free coins and SwitchWatch code. I imagine the physical would have been £30~ here so not too bad. Won't get it for a few weeks of course, but that doesn't matter.
@WhiteUmbrella Base always put up stuff really early and there is no reason to believe they're actually getting copies of this. At least not anytime soon.
@hayface If it doesn't appear on Nintendo's store tomorrow, then I imagine it is either delayed or canceled. The europe version was available on Play-Asia soon after the announcement, but they have since removed it. I've gone and ordered the japanese copy so I can secure it.

Re: Cult "Life-Ruining RPG" Lisa: The Painful Gets Definitive Edition On Switch
Amazing game. I never thought I'd see it get worked on again or ported to other platforms. Now I just need a physical copy for the Switch.
Re: Poll: Will You Be Updating Your Copy Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom?
Of course I updated. Why would I want to exploit and thus play less of the game? I'm already drowning in materials from playing the game normally.

Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom "Hands On" Performance & Resolution Detailed
Performance seems to be the same as BOTW. BOTW Would also drop in specific locations or circumstances.

Re: Review: Afterimage - An Attractive, Sprawling Metroidvania That Struggles On Switch
Not even surprised seeing a game perform worse docked. Seen plenty over the years. Almost like dock is an afterthought to a lot of devs.

Let's hope that means the dodgy physics are patched.

Re: Scalpers Set Their Sights On Metroid Prime Remastered Physical Release
Not out till the 3rd of Mar in the UK, but I'm still able to find stores to order from. US got low stock for some reason.

Re: Wait, Did Square Enix Just Tease A Final Fantasy Tactics Remaster?
Considering how much of the Nvidia leak came true, think it's safe to say we're getting it at some point. Tactics chads can't stop winning.
Re: Nintendo's Investor Q&A Promises Switch Isn't Dead After Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom

Re: Where To Buy Metroid Prime Remastered On Switch
Snapped the ShopTo order just in case. Waiting on TGC to put theirs up. I'm glad this wasn't limited to Nintendo's store.
Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom's Switch eShop Price Is $70 USD
Bought a copy elsewhere for cheaper. Actually been doing this since forever as Nintendo's store is always the expensive option.
Re: Soapbox: Wario Land 4 Deserves More Love, And Indie Devs Are Doing What Nintendon't
Glad I still own my copy. Honestly shocking there were no other games in the series after this masterpiece.

Re: Gulikit's 'Hall Joystick' Promises To Eliminate Drifing For Your Switch Joy-Con

Re: Gulikit's 'Hall Joystick' Promises To Eliminate Drifing For Your Switch Joy-Con
@Baker1000 Drift wasn't eliminated in newer Joycons at all. Just because it hasn't happened to yours yet doesn't mean it is fixed.

Re: Digimon World: Next Order Frame Rate, Resolution And File Size For Switch Revealed
@mariomaster96 That Klonoa collection Bandai put out last year was the same thing. 60fps but ends up stuttering along at the 40s.

Re: Monolith Soft Celebrates Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Fifth Anniversary With Special Artwork
