I think those are some pretty mid box-arts overall. I guess the north american one is the most decent one, but the european one represent the setting of the game better.
@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.
Honestly I don't see the point of owning the IP considering that the remaster seem to have performed even worse than the original. I don't see them trying to fund a sequel by themselves unless it's a very small project.
Honestly, this makes wonder what will be the place the AI in this world, certainly it's endangering jobs, but it's also undoubtedly progress, so and I'm not sure if it's right to stop progress.
It looks like we will finally have the definitive version of this game. I hope they add a mod that make Musical Notes not reset when you leave a level.
It kinda sucks that they aren't releasing the games in the best order, Yakuza 0 should have been released Yakuza 0 first. It looks more like they are getting ready to capitalize on the possible success of the tv show.
@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.
@silver-crescent Fall guys being surpassed by Stumble guys isn't really that unfair. I think the ip was missmanaged, they never ported the game to mobiles and they didn't add local multiplayer. Plus, Epic games also laid off a big chunk of the studio.
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.
Those games definitely overstayed their welcome, so it's cool that they are letting the franchise rest instead of releasing another crash game. Thou who knows, maybe the license was just too expensive.
Nah, I don't have tiktok-gen attention span. I like slow starts, they make more exciting the parts where everything goes wrong. It's the classic "the calm before the storm"
@Serpenterror Nah, it's just Sega mismanaging their IP, Nintendo is also a AAA company and they are able to release high quality titles of their most iconic ips.
@jowy_sw As far as I know, Sweet Baby Inc isn't a charity, so of course they are charging money, and considering they have big companies such as Ubisoft and EA as clients, I doubt they are cheap.
@PtM Leaks doesn't necessarily comes from the development studio, especially the ones that doesn't leak material, so it's hard for companies to even know where to take any sort of action. I think those are just the most extreme scenarios.(Also, I don't think Leakers have all the blame for Nintendo cancelling those projects, it was just Nintendo way of doing things)
I don't get why people is so overdramatic when it comes to leakers that only leaks the existence of something. I don't think that really hurt the multimillion dollar company, it even makes more exciting the announcements. I think being mad at that is just silly.
That aside, I also don't get why these leakers are turning themselves into some sort of internet celebrities with dramas and that kind of stuff. This is the second drama related to a leaker in this month, this is getting silly.
It may be a side-game, but it kinda interesting to see this take on a game where Zelda is the main character. It seem more puzzle-centered, but with BOTW approach to them.

Come to think of it, what happened to the first confirmed Switch game? I think it was about an autistic kid.

Re: Get A Closer Look At Yakuza Kiwami On Switch In New 'Play It Together' Trailer
They should have ported Yakuza 0 first, Yakuza kiwami 1 is basically a Yakuza 0 DLC.
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: Penny's Big Breakaway Dev Downsizes Due To "Volatile Market Conditions"
Yeah, they really made a bad call when they chose Private Division as the publisher, the publisher tax made the game too pricey.
I personally won't buy the game until it's 60% of, but because the publisher is trash and didn't add regional price for my country.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Emio - The Smiling Man: Famicom Detective Club?
I haven't played the game but...Was the ending as controversial as the creator said it was going to be? I haven't seen anyone talking about it.
Re: Mario + Rabbids Producer Leaves Ubisoft Milan After "16 Incredible Years"
It's a shame that Sparks of Hope seemingly underperformed, I hope we see another colaboration between Nintendo and Ubisoft in the future.
Re: Gallery: Mario & Luigi: Brothership New Screenshots And Video Released
I don't like the artstyle, it looks low-budget for some reason, I think it's because of the lighting. It looks pretty 3DS-like.
Re: Random: The Plucky Squire Will Be Narrated By Shrek In Brazil (Kind Of)
Oh, cool, I hope it's the same in LATAM. Thou I think Shrek's voice actor is still facing sexual harassment allegations.
Re: Banjo-Kazooie Is The Latest N64 Game To Be Fully Decompiled
@RupeeClock I hope they are able to port the game, Paper Mario was decompiled last year but there is no projects using that decompilation yet.
Re: Banjo-Kazooie Is The Latest N64 Game To Be Fully Decompiled

Re: LEGO Horizon Adventures Release Date Might Have Been Revealed By PlayStation
@rjejr I think it wasn't intentional, the release date hasn't been officially announced.
Re: 'STALKER: Legends Of The Zone Trilogy' Shoots Onto Switch This November
@anoyonmus It's literally just a simple port, even if they somehow charge a switch tax, it'd be like 30 bucks.
Re: 'STALKER: Legends Of The Zone Trilogy' Shoots Onto Switch This November
@anoyonmus I think Yakuza kiwami will be 20 bucks just like the steam port.
Re: Yakuza Kiwami Brings The Dragon Of Dojima To Switch For The First Time

Re: Yakuza Kiwami Brings The Dragon Of Dojima To Switch For The First Time

Re: Sega Profits Boosted By Angry Birds Creator Acquisition
@Lightsiyd Didn't they suck at that?
Re: Preview: In Ys X: Nordics, Adol And Boats Prove To Be A Match Made In Heaven
@Lightsiyd Regular encounters are always like that in Ys games, bosses and exploration are usually the focus of those games.
Anyways, you don't need to grind in Ys games, so you don't need to kill every one of them.

Re: Tales Of Kenzera: Zau Studio Is Reportedly Facing Layoffs

Re: Tales Of Kenzera: Zau Studio Is Reportedly Facing Layoffs
The money that they used to pay Sweet Baby Inc for pointless consultation should have go to the real development of the game instead -_-
Re: Feature: 54 Switch Ports We'd Love To See Before The Generation's Out
Honestly, I don't get the point of including Alan Wake 2 and Baldur's gate 3, games that obviously can't run on the switch shouldn't make the cut.
Re: Leaker 'Pyoro' Locks Account After Claiming Their Source Works For Nintendo
@PtM Leaks doesn't necessarily comes from the development studio, especially the ones that doesn't leak material, so it's hard for companies to even know where to take any sort of action. I think those are just the most extreme scenarios.(Also, I don't think Leakers have all the blame for Nintendo cancelling those projects, it was just Nintendo way of doing things)
Re: Leaker 'Pyoro' Locks Account After Claiming Their Source Works For Nintendo
I don't get why people is so overdramatic when it comes to leakers that only leaks the existence of something. I don't think that really hurt the multimillion dollar company, it even makes more exciting the announcements. I think being mad at that is just silly.
That aside, I also don't get why these leakers are turning themselves into some sort of internet celebrities with dramas and that kind of stuff. This is the second drama related to a leaker in this month, this is getting silly.
Re: Silksong Is "Not In Dev Hell" According To Playtester
@Bobb I think it was later revealed that there was no real development progress on Bayonetta 3 when it was announced, aside from the logo. XD
Re: New 2D Adventure 'The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom' Announced For This September
It may be a side-game, but it kinda interesting to see this take on a game where Zelda is the main character. It seem more puzzle-centered, but with BOTW approach to them.
