I loved all 3 Virtuous ports to date.... unfortunately I couldn't wait for this one. Enjoying it on the PS4, but highly recommend it to Switch players when it arrives.
But I can already tell it's the kinda game I'll play twice. Do a different character build, try new routes, yada yada. Happy to double dip when it hits Switch
Thanks for the website shoutout, Nintendo Life! I'm a long time fan and reader of this site (I check every morning).
To answer everyone's question, we built this trying to resemble 16bit. I don't know why Level 5 labeled it as 8bit as they should know better. Bandai Namco US just calls it a Pixel Remix. Here it is in English https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4VNAeOoYM4&t=495s
I love Two Crowns. It feels more like a real campaign even though it still doesn't hold your hand. Incredible how you can sink hours into it without notice.
I have been loving this game but it crashes all the time! I'm so frustrated I deleted it and will wait for a patch. Where can I complain to someone it will matter to?
Would love if Nintendo was the kit sponsor for Barca. My nintendo fiorentina jersey is my favorite shirt but afraid to wear it now because it's getting old!
I had the first one on my PS4, and it was the only game I went back to play (because I stopped almost all gaming on PS4 now). So I'm loving part 2 on the go! Completed a couple games on a short flight. Lots of sleep mode and continuing; with the food service, in-flight movie, etc. Perfect.
I bought this day 1, and stopped day 2. I'm not going to touch it until its patched out. I don't care about balancing weapons - fix the performance for Switch!
Neverwinter Nights was such a great experience for me as a kid. But I don't think I'll mess with my treasured memory like I did with Resident Evil 4...
It's also just a terribly edited trailer. Bad pacing, cliche effect slams from Transformers trailers, and Gangsters Paradise set the downer tone throughout.
I'd like to see the internet recut this to fun soundtrack or original Sonic game music.
Would it of killed them to make Dr Eggman and some on brand robots? This Michael Bay Transformer kills my soul. When is Super Mario Movie coming out again? Need to cleanse my palate.
I don't even play the Zelda or Fire Emblem version of this garbage. Why would I play Persona 5 scramble? I was hoping to get to know the actual RPG game and see Tokyo. So disappointing.
I bought this on eshop for 50%off and enjoyed it when I was tired and brainless. Not to say its bad, I actually enjoyed leveling up my planets with a beer and netflix on before bed.
Never finished the Fox side missions so maybe I will now.
Why can't they improve this game? I mistakenly bought it 2 years in a row, hoping they made some improvements since it's only missing some key things to make it playable... but its the same turd in a box
Told myself I wouldn’t buy a new RPG close to Dragons Dogma, but here I am racing thru HOB. Not really an rpg but I def gotta finish so I can purge this crazy map from my brain. Hob has great Zelda vibes, highly enjoying it.
@Ralizah I accidentally bought a $27 round of drinks for people at a bar. Similar to my impulse eshop purchases, but... Imagine regretting $27 drinks for strangers, but then learning you have to also spend 10-16 hours with them before you can move on with someone you enjoy spending time with.... my new mentality is to say f@ck my backlog and play what I want. (just kidding I have a backlog spreadsheet)
@Not_Soos I actually liked it a lot as far as I got, which was that desert area with the time warping. The art style was kind of Studio Ghibli-ish, and I liked the new mechanics of running up walls, etc. I just couldn't deal with the remote, really.
I just want a port of Skyward Sword. Only one I missed... tried to play it on my Wii U but the jagged standard def on a watercolor art style hurt my eyes! Especially after seeing the HD versions on emulators. Also remap the controls so we don't have to swing a damn remote for an hour.
Ugh please just announce it. I bought it used for PS4 last Dec; loved the first 4 hours, but sold it the moment I saw Joker for Smash (and rumors). No way I'd finish it on PS4, I can't even sit and finish Horizon and other great games in set couch. But since Dec, I've already finished Dark Souls and Transistor on my Switch. Do it for us!
OMG, her voice still gives me nightmares. For some reason the second encounter with her was the hardest I had in the whole game... will be great to be her!
Since this was announced I had no idea what it was, but I'm pretty obsessed now. Have watched plenty of reviews and Let's Plays and it looks awesome. A weird mix of Witcher, Dark Souls, and Dragon Age. A day one purchase for me, only $29.99
Yes just release it. As an apology for the massive delay set for 4, but also to give people time to complete all 3 before 4. Most people won't want to do them all back to back, so it'd be nice to catch up at leisure (especially since Prime 1 is the best and goes slightly downhill from there).
