Still need to play Octopath, I like the idea of lots of little stories intertwining, and the art style is amazing but not found the time to play it yet. I found the demo of triangle weirdly awkward and enjoyed it less than expected. Hopefully these QOL changes will make all the difference, am still looking forward to it and will get on Octopath soon.
@Dilly-Mick thanks yes I actually didn't realise all the options at the time, thanks. I now have a lvl 18, 19 and 20 item, tho taking me ages to get up any higher than that!
@Dilly-Mick cool, yea, I'm struggling to get more than 1 item to level 20 but it seems people on here have no issue getting them up there for free. Not sure how they're managing it but out of energy to argue the point, and happy to accept its not a game breaking difference to "pay to win ".
Hell argue with the dude on YouTube if you want, I'm just saying there is clearly a strong pay to win element here, still a cool game and I hope you guys are right that it isn't that big of deal. Also glad for your 22 win streak camorant dude, congratulations.
I don't disagree at all that you need skill/strategy obviously but isn't the point of these games that everyone starts on a level playing field then gains more power? Having someone with a 10% advantage can make all the difference in a close game.
@HeadPirate the answer is obvious...do you think most people have paid out money like that guy..no...its a waste of money, however that doesn't change the fact this is a pay to win game.
Sample size has nothing to do with it, neither does how many games you've won with camorant lol. It doesn't matter how good the guy is, the point is he has a ridiculous advantage by spending a lot of money.
Some guy on YouTube bought all the upgrades and was just destroying everyone, what is the point of that lol, they need to change it so that everyone starts each game equal!
Steam deck is at maximum hype now but it'd be naive to think its going to be a runaway success...so much to prove and so many potential pitfalls on the way to success. Even if it does do really well it will have little dent in the switch, which is so well established and with a wider mainstream appeal.
I sold xenoblade 2 after playing like 10-20 hours as it was so much worse than the first one. Kinda up for the switch version of 1 at some point though.
Feels like it needs work, didn't help being thrown into middle of the story either...hopefully they will speed up the gameplay a bit and make it more fun as it could be amazing.
Yes slopes are the only improvement I really notice otherwise a step back from the original due to lacking the amazing amiibo feature of 1...disappointing game unfortunately.
What was there was good...astral chain looks cool, Mario maker 2 yes please and fire emblem I'm sure will be a treat, tetris is a lot of fun too, edit and zelda!!....I was disappointed with no animal crossing and pokemon though and something of a drought until Mario maker is out...

Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting A Switch OLED Or Valve Steam Deck?
Steam deck is at maximum hype now but it'd be naive to think its going to be a runaway success...so much to prove and so many potential pitfalls on the way to success. Even if it does do really well it will have little dent in the switch, which is so well established and with a wider mainstream appeal.
