Just after playing Resident Evil 7, 8, and 9. A first-person view would have been the way to go. Can't stand looking at the character. The immersion is killed!
@OrtadragoonX I finished 7 and found it to be just OK. It played good but I hated the theme and most of the characters.
I finished the castle and now finishing up the village in 8 and it's by far my favorite Resident Evil game. The theme is perfect. It's like 4 but much improved and so much better.
The best thing about both of these games is being in first person. Makes the games much scarier and control better!
Wow, I was nervous to play this after 7 which is regarded to be the better game and this mediocre review. Not only is Village much better then 7, it's by far the best Resident Evil game. It may even be my favorite video game ever and that is saying a lot since that title has been held by Super Castlevania IV since it's release. This is why reviews are worthless.
I've been wanting to play Resident Evil 7 for a long time and was on the fence about Requiem. I couldn't believe the deal for the collection so I got that. Haven't liked a Resident Evil since 4 and 7 is really good so far. Hoping Village and Requiem aren't another Resident Evil 5 & 6.
It took me a long time to get this game because of the bad reviews and man are they wrong. This might be the best in the series. 2 has very awkward controlled combat sections and 1 has some dull monsters. 3 improved on everything and the main characters are just as great. I think reviewers jumped on a bandwagon and followed each other with their pathetic reviews.
One of the only Metroid type games I did not like. This type of game should be 20 hours max. Preferably 10 hours. The environments are very dull on top of having to look at them for that many hours.
I was excited for Metroid Prime 4 but they did too much different that it looks awful and will be the first Metroid game that I won't get. I hated the human characters in Prime 3 which is expanded on here and the speeder bike looks awful. Even the power ups look dumb. If they did an almost replica of Prime 1, the game would have sold a hell of alot more.
So much better than both sequels. It's not even close. 2 has a weird structure and 3 was so overstuffed with boring aspects. If this is an 8, 2 is a 5 and 3 is a 6. Fact!!!
@GamingGod I wasn't the biggest fan of Wii controls but it was one of the most popular systems ever and had a ton of great games. Switch 2 will eventually become the most sold and popular home console ever. Playstation and Xbox have nothing going for them. They never did other than trying to make their games look pretty, which is the least important thing in a game. Their first party games are awful.
@GamingGod all my little nephews ranging from 8 to 14 have PS5. It's a kid system and garbage at that. Nintendo is innovation that every company copies. They will be the last video game company.
@kmtrain83 I don't know if Nintendo will. I mean the PS5 is already that toy geared towards kids who want to play make believe instead of the innovation that Nintendo games create.
I've been saying it for over a decade. Nintendo will be the only company to have a system. Microsoft is going the route of Sega and Sony will eventually. You just can't compete with Nintendo's first party games.
I just finished this game 100%. Well I missed 4 ducks, but I think it's a game glitch that doesn't count 4 of them that are used as keys. Anyway this review should be changed to a 9/10 as you have full camera control when you get to the 3rd level. Such a brilliant idea!
This is so much better than the original game. I'm actually preferring this game over Donkey Kong Bananza. It's just a cleaner experience and not as mindless.
@abbyhitter I just replayed Bowser's Fury yesterday and it would be the perfect formula for the next 3D Mario game. Just without Bowser Jr following you around and no Boswer appearing every few minutes. The funny thing is that I hate open world games (Zelda was ruined for me), but it really works for Mario. And 1,000 collectibles at least as the 100 goes really fast.
I had 365 P-Switches and 121 Peach Medallions. Looking at the map with the markers, I was able to up my P-Switches to 372. Somehow I had 4 grayed out challenges that I didn't beat, plus I looked in spots that seemed largely open without a found Switch. I didn't know the total until looking it up now. I can't believe how close I was.
This is one of the best Metroid type games ever made. Unlike the garbage overrated Hollow Knight series. It's actually sad that everyone is a follower.
This review is a little late and way overrated, but to each his own. 🤷♂️
Honestly this is a bottom tear Metroid type game. This is not even close to The Messenger or Chronicles of the Wolf. Neither was the first Hollow Knight. They're so dull with the samey locations and way too long. 20 hours at most for this type of game.
Mario Galaxy Movie - Can't Wait Mario Galaxy 2 - Awesome Resident Evil 7, 8, and 9 - Great Donkey Kong Bananza DLC - Need more info Mario Wonder DLC - Need more info Metroid Prime 4 - Looks horrible
Couldn't play for more than 11 hours. Metroid type games are my favorite but Hollow Knight was very boring and way too long. These types of games need to be no longer than 10 hours. I hope Silk Sing is better but that won't be hard since I would rate the first game a 3/10.
I was hoping for more updates to Free Roam. After finishing the rest of the game 100%, I moved onto having a blast playing Free Roam. I got all the ? panels, I'm at 361 p-switches, and 125 Peach medallions. If I didn't look it up, I wouldn't even know the totals of them. I refuse to use any of the guides as that would drive me crazy. There should be an option to track these things. Such as maps that you could purchase for their locations. Hey a use for collecting coins!
@Spider-Kev The game is actually long. A little too long which is my only complaint about it. I've been playing over 40 hours and see it going to at least 60 for 100%. I don't think a game should be more than 20 hours max. And $70 would be perfectly fine for 20 hours. A 2 hour movie costs $20 to own!
I started off thinking only a 7 due to hating the game being all about smashing. I dreaded the canyon layer. I loved the Divide. Then I realized I wasn't playing the game correctly. It wasn't all about smashing. I upgraded my sonar all the way and only smashed when necessary. The game immediately became a 10. But now I was comparing it to Mario Odyssey. Was it better than a game I consider almost perfect? I can actually say yes. And the reason is that there is no stupid picture taking, rumble feature that I leave turned off, or any system feature necessary collectible in the game. This game really is perfect.
@rvcolem1 These are my favorite types of games. This one looks more like Ender Lillies and Magnolia, and the 2 Ori games. These are 4 great games! I honestly think Hollow Knight is the worst. It was so dull, long, and boring to look at.
@Bigmanfan I disagree with everything I could sit through in that video. I hate 3 lap races and I know most other people do as well. Nintendo made the right decision with the intermission laps. And it makes the 1 lap on the track that much more exciting when you get to it. Making the game this way gives it a ton more variety and less of a chance for people to memorize a track which makes the 3 laps even worse. All I care about is that this is the way I always wanted it and I got it. Not to mention the free roam which I've spent 60 hours on after getting 100% on the rest of the game.
@Bigmanfan What does it have to do with strategy or going faster? I like to see different things instead of the same boring crap 3 times in a row. If you want straight racing then why are you even playing Mario Kart? Lol
