I liked him a little. To me, he brought some humor and vulnerability to the game. Also, I did love that line, "It's about to get pretty nerdy in here." That line made me laugh pretty hard. 🤣🤣
@RonMexico I'm just stating facts. No1, you are right, but the overall the PS4 was no1, and the PS5 was $299. But, after that, the Switch 2 went back to no1. Just stating facts.
@RonMexico She's been at Nintendo for 20 years, plays games and has teens who play games. Also, the Switch didn't win Black Friday 2017, and the Switch 2 is at almost 18 million at the end of the year. You got so much stuff wrong. Most of the people from Nintendo in the 80s and 90s weren't gamers.
I'm beginning to think that DQXII had been rebooted. I think it would be wise if they figured out making DQ more Western since that's not working out too well for Final Fantasy.
Exclusives give your system an identity, and it tells the consumer what kind of content to expect. I think losing exclusives hurts the business and I'm glad Nintendo is sticking to their guns.
@babybilly I remember in September 2017, when both Nintendo Life and Everything did an article when Monolith Soft started heating up development for this game. They were looking for people with more action combat experience, and experience with mid evil and fantasy settings.
@JR150 Well, no. That recruitment page was up until they announced they were working on a new RPG. August of 2024.
Also, according to Nintendo Everything and Life, Monolith Soft was hiring for *A project unlike our usual projects. With more worldwide appeal, mid evil, and fantasy setting." It was a project. So, if you want me to get the articles, I can.
@Glassneedles Na. You're making excuses for their behavior. Also, your opinion doesn't make it a fact. The fact is, Cyberpunk is still the most graphically demanding game to run on PC or console.
Also, he said that the Switch 2 struggled to run AC Shadows, when that isn't true. That's a lie, I'm sorry, but it is. He may not have knowingly lied, but he was lying. I just called the lie out. Then, when he told me he was going by DF, that explained it.
I'm not saying the Switch 2 versions won't have cuts, but unlike the original Switch, the Switch 2 cuts won't be as dramatic. Look at FF7R, Split Fiction, SF6, Cyberpunk and Star Wars Outlaws. They had cuts, but not too many. And, all of them look better on the Switch 2 than the Series S.
Again, if a game can run on the Series S, it can run on the Switch 2.
@Glassneedles The minimum requirements are not the whole story. The Switch 2 runs the PS5 version of Cyberpunk, not the PS4 version, but PS5. And, the Switch 2 has sharper details than a lot of the PS5 details thanks to DLSS.
Now, as far as time goes. I notice you didn't say a word to them as they were talking down to me. Interesting.
Anyway, the fact is, there have been listings on LinkedIn from Ubisoft that hint at a port of Avatar Frontiers of Pandora for the Switch 2. I think it might be announced at the next direct.
@DennisReynolds Is this better? Yeah, it's on PC, but the point is, the Switch 2 can run Cyberpunk with no path tracing, but minimal sacrifices, and FOP is no7! NO7! Will it have some sacrifices? Yep, but it can run it. Remember when this site questioned if the Switch 2 could run Resident Evil Requiem? How did that turn out?
@DennisReynolds I know this is from awhile back, but DF has been getting things wrong for years. Also, there's literally an article on this site that talks about the update to smooth out what frame drops it had. LOL

@Sirko Great picks.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (27th December)
My family and friends got me some games, so I'm putting Prime 4 on the back burner for a weekend.
I'm playing the heck out of Hades 2, I'm also loving Kirby Air Riders, Final Fantasy Tactics, the Final Fantasy 7 demo and Persona 3 Reload.
I hope everyone is having fun with their games this weekend.
