Toby Fox has stated that he wants chapter 3-5 to be released as a set. That's why Chapter 1 was just called "demo" and Chapter 2 was released standalone because of COVID. Chapter 3 is not actually going to be released soon.
I hate all the hype ports get. In 99% of cases ports are entirely insignificant.
They were a bigger deal on the Wii U when many developers would skip them, but there's no need to be excited about them five years into the Switch's success. They're still nice to have, but they take up way too much attention. In an ideal world they would all be shadowdropped without any coverage on Directs and just receive a quick tweet notifying that it's out.
@SeantheDon29 From someone on Reddit: "The only way to legally emulate Switch titles it to install a custom firmware on a launch model Switch (precisely from March '17 to early summer '18) and use it to rip a cartridge on PC." Of course no one besides the first few emulators is actually going to go through the trouble of ripping a legally bought copy of Dread to play on PC. Everyone else is going to just download their files, which is piracy.
@Laoak Bedrock isn't an inferior version. It's just different. For example, it runs much better than Java because it was built on a more optimized framework. That's what allows it to run on phones as well. And each update it lurches slowly towards parity with the Java edition. If Java was on Switch, it couldn't run at all.
This article isn't very well written. Etika's mural took months of planning, and it was made by a small group of commission artists and not merely a mass of fans. These people should get credit. Additionally, "Joyconboyz are the fans" is phrased really weird and this news is a lot more than "somewhat fitting" for Etika.
@Ashunera84 Everyone knows that Sword and Shield will be wildly successful. What people are so aggravated about is that GameFreak can do the bare minimum and always sell millions
All of those 4 Pokemon can evolve, which means their evolutions are someone's favorite. You can't just keep an evolved Pokemon while banning an unevolved one, so therefore there's no possible Pokemon that can be banned without removing one that people care about.
This will be seen as the equivalent of the kids eating at their own table at Thanksgiving. This is extremely disrespectful to the Switch, who are no doubt going to be thought less of by the other console owners.
I'm a big Undertale fan, but the opening area of that game, which is also offered as a free demo, was horrid. The level of quality present in Deltarune's demo implies that the full game will be even more phenomenal.
@penamiguel92 I like the fact that you just put a placeholder for a low-intelligent system because the Imperialists whose souls are held in the shrine, according to the Japanese, believe that Koreans and Chinese people are subhumans
@JohnG I would reckon that less than one percent of people are offended as Natives are only 1 percent of America's population, down from being 25% of the entire world's population from before mallot-weilding cowboys came into play.
@AlexSora89 Because Gen 7 was a major improvement in the series graphically, while Gen 6 is the most bland game of them all, and they decided to go with 6's.
@Abeedo I've already got the Zelda and Splatoon ones, which I thought were old news. The boxes are carboard, but the actual cases have exclusive box art on the back of it
@DavidMac Well, Torna~TGC has been stated to be more mature, and most of 2's sex stuff were jokes. The new protagonist also has a good non-sexual female design. Many people have stated that Tora is looking to be quite better than the base game.
@LuckyLand At my high school, we have chromebooks and every student gets a school Google account and must use Google drive and Google classroom for many assignments.
Also, why does the article say there is a biscuit when it is clearly a cracker?
@Monado_X There was a leaked screenshot a while ago that showed the player riding a Lapras with an Eevee in Kanto, and the graphics looked nearly identical to the 3DS games. If that screenshot was true, then it'll seem like the game will not be gen 8.
This has to be something playable at the World Championships, or something not videogame related. If this was another expansion pack, for example, it would be shown off at E3.
@NightBeast Have you considered that you could be a victim of propaganda yourself?
@LemonSlice They mentioned that information because all gay content in Russia is censored and, in some regions, men who love other men are systematically murdered.

Re: Is Game Freak "Recycling" 3DS Animations In Pokémon Sword And Shield On Switch?
@Ashunera84 Hey, buddy. I found a pretty nifty article that you should read. Turns out, the animations aren't being updated for the new hardware. It's unfortunate that you evidently didn't read it prior and instead wasted bytes on NL's servers with your comment.

Re: Nintendo Announces Splatoon 2's Final Splatfest, Chaos Vs. Order
I'm sure Splatoon 3 will end up as an anarchic Mad Max-esque apocalypse if Chaos wins, or a fascist cyberpunk-esque apocalypse if Order wins.

Re: The Detective Pikachu Movie Reviews Are In, And It's Actually Pretty Mixed
Video game reviews are inflated far more than movie reviews. A 5/10 game would be a 2/10 movie, while a 5/10 movie would be equivalent to a 7/10 game.
