Re: Hands On: Getting Our Feet Wet With Trials of Mana

Played the demo and was absolutely bored with it. Maybe it was just the character I choose - the beast dude - but the writing was awful - his set up made no sense, the voice acting sucked, and the character models and starting environment- his castle were repetitive and dull. Combat was - so so? Not sure where this praise is coming from.. but hey I hope people enjoy it I guess!

Re: Poll: What Did You Think Of The Nintendo Direct Mini?

neogyo

@peterjack I have to agree.. I didn’t expect them to reveal the big holiday games but like you said, something akin to a Mario sports title or a smaller IP would’ve been nice,, let alone one of the heavy hitters we all want to see. And the ARMS push just feels so late in the games life.. see why they’re promoting their IP for Smash, but it’s a pretty disappointing choice, especially as a follow up to Byleth. Not trying to complain, but I feel like they could’ve given us just. Litttttle something more here.

Re: 10-Character Island Names For Animal Crossing: New Horizons Now Confirmed

@rjejr yea it’ll be a lot different than Pocket Camp. The movement will be analogue for sure. PC was a fun lil taste of AC To hold ya over for a minute, but as soon as they added the micro transactions I bailed in protest!

And we’re definitely going to have a ton of exploring to do, with all the additional islands and landscaping duties etc

Re: Video: Heartwarming Animal Crossing: New Horizons Trailer Shows How The Game Brings Friends Together

Love it. But also, hate it. It’s so sad that they can’t actually hang out in real life. At least they are engaged in real world activities, but I feel like there should always be time for hangin with friends when in school age (and beyond).

That was pretty rad how her painting was just placed on the grass like that!?!

And I also wonder, there’s got to be more to multiplayer that we haven’t seen yet right. @rjejr - rolling down a hill at least! Haha

Re: Itching For 2020's First Nintendo Direct? One Super Mario Maker 2 Player Got Tired Of Waiting

neogyo

@nhSnork well said. I get caught up in the Direct hype just as much as anyone else, but it’s really just feeding those endorphins. How many of the games announced will I even play in the end? Maybe 4? Its all good fun getting hyped, but it’s important to continue to be grounded in reality. Like you said, There are plentyyyyy of games to get lost in already. And what of the coronavirus, it could seriously be impacting release schedules which would definitely hinder an already edited direct. 200 cases in Japan now, Probably canceling the olympics! This is what’s insane, not the lack of gaming news.

Re: Almost 1,000 Players Give To Charity Via Lydia's Donation DLC On Switch, New Bundle Now Available

neogyo

I love the concept of real world positive change thru dlc. They also did a similar thing with EQQO. I’m hoping more publishers follow suit.

I thought Lydia was cool, just wish it had a little something more to the engagement in the game. Basically just a visual novel which is fine too. The voice of Lydia got annoying quickly for me tho, could’ve added a few more variations to the babababa ..

Re: The Pokémon Company Shares Tips For Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX

neogyo

Not trying to rain on anybody’s parade but from what I’ve played (the demo) this was one of the most boring experiences I’ve had with a game on my Switch. I ended up using the auto play feature I was so bored. What’s the point? I was bummed bc it looked cute and could’ve been something special. Really seems aimed at a young audience which is all good.

Re: Mini Review: EQQO - An Engaging Puzzler With A Deep Narrative

I just bought the game plus the DLC , which for those who haven’t looked yet- plants you a tree in the game, and in real life!

I also purchased the $1 DLC for Lydia which gives you a coloring book in game, while the money goes to the non profit- Fragile Childhood.

Didn’t realize Lydia was from the same publisher till now. Awesome.

This is such a great concept for DLC @Nakana_Mika. It’s awesome that you’re supporting such positive change in this wild world. All the little things count.
