@Fighting_Game_Loser fair point. I'm sure there'd be people who'd check the games out after watching but considering the reception (from what I've seen at least) had been fairly negative i wonder how significant a factor it was in the sales. I'd figure the positive word of mouth surrounding Capcom as of late as a whole would play a bigger role.
Considering how every single person I've talked to despises that cartoon (it's not an anime). I find it HIGHLY doubtful that it had anything to do with the games sales.
Still, good for Capcom! I'm happy for them but would've been happier if they actually released proper cartridges ok switch 2.
I hate to be cynical but... am I the only one who feels like all these articles of staff from the original game showing their approval of the new designs is damage control?
Like they're desperately trying to convince us the redesign aren't bad.
I'm sure the game itself will be good, but isn't this the second article of "old star fox dev praises the look of the new one"?
@LuigiDude96 I mean, nintendo avoids showing even blood in the directs. Remember how they showed off Resident Evil Requiem but never showed anyone firing the gun?
@Zeebor15 the Cynic in me agrees, but I wanna hope that with Trails in the Sky episode 2 being a physical cartridge, and the Game-Key Cards released by Sega significantly underperforming (With Sonic Racing Crossworld being their first Physical Cartridge) There's a possibility we MIGHT get them physically.
@Skunkfish allow me to clarify my issue:
I like collecting games. I have over 200 games on switch. I also value being able to access my library at a moment's notice, so I bought a 2TB microSD. Which is now useless since it's not supported on switch 2. (I got the 1TB).
I don't hate digital media, in fact I do own some digital games. But I've been working to get as physical versions of as many of my digital games as possible.
There is no excuse for a billionaire game company like Ubisoft to not release a physical cartridge. It's a game that'll require the live service model of being constantly updated, nor is it too big to fit one physical switch 2 cart. It's a decision made purely out of greed and laziness. And I find it extremely insulting, as it's a glorified download code being sold as a physical option.
when it was leaked that they were doing a Rayman Legends Remake, I thought it was an absolutely stupid idea, but I'm actually quite impressed with how it's looking. it looks like there's enough new ideas here to justify it's existence so I'm willing to keep an eye on it.
Also (because, yes, that's important to me), I was pleasantly surprised Barbara's cleavage is still there. specially after they censored Anne Bonny's in the Assassin's Creed 4 remake (you know, the M RATED game?) xD
Its a game key card, so no. I have to be extremely selective with any digital ga.es I buy now, at least until a 2tb microsd express comes out and who knows when the hell that'll be.
I hope its good. I loved DQ11 but skipped on all games after (like Monsters 2, HD2D Remakes and the Reimagined one), because of the censorship to Toriyama's designs.
Yuri Horie himself was on record talking about how he didn't understand or like that these changes (which were very likely pushed by Square's Western branch and consultants) were made.
I can only hope that whatever Toriyama made for this game will have come through uncompromised. Though I guess we'll never see that original art unless Square Releases and specifies that it was his drawings.
@maulinks I find i prefer the joycon myself. I find i like to use the d-pad over the analog stick and the pro controllers being one single "+" sign rather than separate buttons often causes me to misinput xD
@shiningpikablu252 possibly, but then again, RE is Capcom, And this is Square. So they're not gonna necessarily approach it the same way (i couls be wrong of course, it's all speculation).
@ChromaticDracula oh it can be particularly insufferable if you're from Brazil. When you're just indifferent about a sport that everyone around you seem obsessed with, that indifference can turn to annoyance real quick.
It frustrates me to no end how readily people were to accept a first party game key card. But I guess that's the biggest multimedia franchise in the world for you.
Honestly Bayo3 was a gigantic disappointment for me as someone who was a big fan of the first two games. The Multiverse is one thing, but a lot of moments just felt like character assassination. Bayonetta in both 1 and 2 is nothing if not confident and competent. but in 3 she just kinda sits back with her mouth agape while her AU versions get killed. this made her look incompetent. same thing with Jeanne with how ridiculously easy it was for Tilda Swinton to one-shot kill her with that wheelchair lightsaber. That final scene where Viola, a character with a completely different personality who I didn't quite mind as a side character, claims the name "Bayonetta" felt like a slap in the face.
Bayo 3 did the worst thing a sequel can do: it made me not want to see what comes next. I didn't buy Bayonetta Origins, and I honestly didn't want a Bayonetta 4 if it meant that Viola was gonna go around using that name.
From what i understand, this is less of a proper game and more of a platform for competitive pokemon battle and absolutely nothing else.
Like the whole point is: play other pokemon games->transfer your pokemon to Home-> Use them to form a team in Champions.
@Zeeba honestly that makes it even more baffling that things were censored.
Like the other guy said it IS minor, but in the cult of Takumi route, both "Eva Cake" CGs and the "Living Idol" CG with Eito (you know the one) got toned down only on switch, while remaining in their original form on PC. (The eva cake scenes got zoomed in with a huge "white fog" covering the bottom of the image. Like those lazy "sun ray" censorship that happened on some VNs on PS4 some years ago. Same thing with the Eito scene, but with shadow instead).
I get these are small moments and nowhere near as invasive as what happened to Dispatch, but it's by ignoring these smaller things that you give leeway for things to get worse. The point is, not a single CG should've have been changed considering it's an M rated game with very adult themes. Specially when it has the exact same rating on a different platform. Its not something that should be excused (SPECIALLY when the devs never disclosed this information. I would never have bought the switch version had i knew this happened and would've played it on pc instead), hence why I feel the need to bring it up every time.
@cedarhyped I don't care. That number should be zero.
It's wrong in principle to censor content in an M-Rated game. Whether it's major like in Dispatch or minor like in Hundred Line, people shouldn't give it a pass.
