Re: The Math Adds Up, The Nintendo Switch Really Does Have The Best Games

"the Switch is comfortably beat by the PC, Mac, iPhone, and Android"
I think you include PC by mistake, PC has way more games than the switch according that table.

Switch- 39 games VS PS4 - 33 games

This is kinda an unfair comparison, PS4 is still getting games, but critics are only reviewing the PS5 versions now. So it probably has more games that are worthy of the +90.(Thou I said kinda unfair because the ps4 has been out for 11 years)

PS5 - 25 games

This is kinda impressive actually, they have that amount of prestigious games in only 4 years, while the switch has been out for almost 8 years. The PS5 could end up beating the switch by the end of its lifecycle.

@Serpenterror Nintendo apologists are pretty lame and misinformed, Craftopia cannot be considered as a rip-off of zelda botw because that game has every videogame mechanic and concept in existence to the point that it barely play like Zelda. It's more like a sh@tposting game.

A similar case applies to Never Grave, as a matter of fact, that one looks even more original than Crowsworn which had the blessing from the hollow knight team.

Re: Palworld Developer Responds To Nintendo Lawsuit

I just love that no matter if Nintendo ends up being legally right, it's still morally correct to hate them because patenting mechanics is scummy af.

It's also hard to keep track of which very specific mechanics are patented, specially for an indie company.

Re: Preview: In Ys X: Nordics, Adol And Boats Prove To Be A Match Made In Heaven

@Lightsiyd I mean, you don't really need to grind for those things to beat the bosses. I did grind them in my playthrough and ended up being overleveled in the hard difficulty.

"In any case, bosses and even mini-bosses are interspersed between lengthy areas of exploration, which is most definitely not my cup of tea."

I don't thing you will like any of the party members era ys games(Ys seven, Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana, Ys IX: Monstrum Nox), these games are way more lengthy and they introduced materials.Ys Monstrum Nox is basically Lacrimosa of Dana 2: Electric Boogaloo.

You should try the Napishtim engine era games instead, they have a more frantic pacing and you only play as the MC. From that era, Ys Origin is currently available on Switch and Ys The Oath in Felghana is getting a switch port early next year.

Re: Braid: Anniversary Edition Sales Have Been "Utterly Terrible", Says Creator

Honestly, I think the indie gaming landscape has just changed. People is no longer that interested in early indie games, the indie platformers market is oversaturated and the competition is really tough.

I think games such as Limbo and Cave Story would never perform as well as they did if they were released this year. And most of the early indie studios weren't able to reach mainstream success in the current market.
