Re: Sonic Racing: CrossWorld's First "Premium" DLC Pack Arrives This Week

@slowpoke_tail Yup, I've been saying the same stuff. I actually don't mind the race tracks, but the mute characters that aren't even from gaming feel like the mods that people do with games. It's like when they ask Goku for Smash, and I'm a huge DB fan. Smash is a celebration of Nintendo's legacy and gaming as a whole featuring the most iconic characters from them and the industry. Sure, Goku's iconic but it's an anime character and despite having games it's not the same thing.

Re: Rumour: Red Dead Redemption 2 Port For Switch 2 Really Does "Exist", It's Claimed

I can't say that I agree about the slow gameplay as I reall enjoyed it. Or maybe it is, in an intended immersive way at times when it was needed. I'm not even a fan of cowboys and westerns, but the game is simply epic and made me appreciate those things more. Also, love worlds that are full of optional stories, stuff to do and things to find and this is one of the best.

Re: Mario Kart World And Donkey Kong Bananza Shortlisted For 'Console Game Of The Year'

@Anti-Matter I'm aware of your preferences, but these categories aren't thought to appeal to you, it's to the general public. Personally, I don't use portability to "show of to other people" and I doubt that's the appeal for the vast majority, it's simply practical to a lot of us that have partners and families that might be using the tv and when traveling. As for the Switch 2, it has less power than the PS5 but it has more than a PS4. Right now, the device is fairly new, but I'm sure that games will keep improving as devs get used to it.

@Anti-Matter I understand, but the PS5 isn't all great either. It's not portable, the sleep/suspend mode on it or even the other portables isn't nearly as good, it doesn't have a mouse integrated on the device (just as an accessory) and it barely has any exclusive games and a lot of them are ending up on PC after some time. Also, the great majority of Switch games work on Switch 2 and some of them also run better even without a dedicated update. I agree that Nintendo could have handled retrocompatibility more efficiently tho.

Besides, PS5 isn't even competing now. Switch 2 made it's debut recently, hence why it's a contender. Personally PS5 has been my least played Playstation console and I have been with them since the PS1. This might be my last console from them.

Re: Marvel Cosmic Invasion Demo Datamine Leaks More Heroes

It's a shame that there's no demo for consoles, but oh well, it should release before the end of the year. As for the last 2 characters, I was expecting them and they are welcome editions. Would have preferred Magika, Rogue, Invisible woman, Sersi or Angela over Phoenix tho. DLC is also expected but it's nice to see it mentioned already. Pretty sure that at least 1 character from the Fantastic Four will be included considering the villain.

Re: Review: Hades 2 - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition - A Bewitching Sequel That's A Spell Off Perfect

@Tyranexx Just to clarify it's a Rogue-lite. In games like Hades, every time you fail you constantly make progress and get advantages to make things easier in later runs. There's also a god mode to practically experience the story's ending if that's your choice, but I'd say that you'd miss out a lot of content if you do that on your first run since this game handled the runs very well as new story and interactions constantly happen with every try, which you would miss. Considering that you enjoy mythology, the likeable characters and interesting story, the price of like $5 US (I think?) and the accessibility of the god run if/when you get tired of trying I'd say that it's a very safe bet.

Edit: Just to clarify here's an explanation of how god mode works as I haven't tried it myself. Apparently you can still die but it makes things much easier with each try so you might want to try it since the start:

"God Mode is a difficulty option that can be toggled at any time from the menu on a non-Hell Mode file. God Mode grants 20% damage resistance, increasing by 2% each time a run ends in death (rather than escape). The damage resistance caps at 80%."

Re: Opinion: Metroid Prime 4 Reminds Me Of Gears 5, And It's Making Me Nervous

roy130390

@rushiosan Federation Force was literally a Prime game gameplay-wise. I understand the dislike for the artistic direction, but aside from that people simply hated it because they thought dumb things like Samus getting replaced and not getting "authentic single player Metroid" anymore. It was a good idea to expand the universe and make the franchise more popular with a spin-off, like other Nintendo ones.

From what I've seen, the worst enemies of the Metroid franchise are the fans.

Re: Marvel Vs. Capcom Fighting Collection Sells 1 Million Copies

roy130390

@Vyacheslav333 People have too much nostalgia. Yes, there's many great fighting games from years ago, but there's also many fantastic current ones and the genre has never been more accesible than it is now. Besides, it's the fighting community that kills games when they don't get DLC. DNF Duel is a great game that suffered that fate. Once they made DLC, which was a year after, people already "lost interest" and it was "too little too late". So not only do people want DLC, they want the kind of content that could have been on the original release as they expect it to come soon. I'm not in favor of corporations but neither against them. It's a business practice and they just give what people want because they are interested in making as much profit as possible. Under Night in Birth 2 is a great game, but they are also making DLC.
