Re: "It's Make-Or-Break For Sure" - Shovel Knight Dev's Fate Rests On Upcoming Zelda-Like

The demo was fine enough to lead to a purchase, these longs developments times and cost to develop has to be very stressful. This leads to games having to be hits, also the demo for that Eliot game got me excited for the game. I say that seeing comments here are that the demo can lead to people not purchasing your game. I wonder if the attach rates are higher or lower with demos or it just really depends on the quality of the demo?

Re: Drag x Drive Devs Tried Wheelchair Basketball In Prep For Game

rvcolem1

I actually thought the game was kinda fun, the problem was it felt kinda flat presentation wise. The barrier to entry with the controls was also a big problem with the game for a lot of people. The concept of wheelchair basketball can definitely be turned into a fun video game, they obviously weren't disrespecting handicapped people.

Re: Review: Marvel Cosmic Invasion (Switch) - Up There With Best-Ever Arcade Marvel Games

@Tom-Massey I dont mind that this exists as an option, just not cureently something i want to spend time with. Plus my comment wasn't negative about Absolum, even if the game may be on the slightly easier side of traditional beat em ups. I do enjoy the expanding mission structure of Absolum with the combat system. The dash parry and punish system is a fun implementation and keeps combat engaging enough for me while not being so deep it hurts my brain.
While I own and enjoy both Abolum and TMNT this is not currently worth it to me as the IP doesn't scream must have and more importantly the combat could be not as satisfying as games i already own. Maybe after a long stint away from the genre I can revisit this.

Re: UK Charts: Kirby Is Nowhere To Be Seen In A Quiet Week

I wonder why this got the promotional push it received? Love it or hate it this coming out so close to mario kart is a killer as most casual gamers didnt need another racing style game on switch. I dont believe they could have changed the result. I saw the preview and noped out pretty quick while others were pumped. I also believe if a parent on just get one switch 2 game right now they are grabbing Mario Kart every time over this because name recognition is huge.

Re: Nintendo's Switch App For Mobile Has Been Updated, Here Are The Full Patch Notes

@TerribleTerabytes find some richer friends haha, kidding. This reminds me of a lot of previous nintendo things. Really a cool concept but limited scope. Like I'd love to play randoms in jackbox with gamechat and just have rooms for adults. I think it functions pretty well but the only friends list thing is kinda a let down. We play gloomhaven on switch 2 and good grief does it help with co-op games all being able to talk instead of getting a discord going and having so many alternate things....but I've wandered off in the discussion

Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting The New Kirby Air Riders amiibo?

@Spider-Kev dont want to get in an argument but is this satire? Because unfortunately without taxes I dont believe people would willingly give up money for public schools, roads, firefighters and such.
I wish we had a society that was altruistic enough so we could live without taxes but I dont see it.
Also maybe this air riders game is fun

Re: TMNT: Splintered Fate 'Wraith Invasion' Update Now Available - Mini Boss Astral Wraiths, New Rewards And Much More

rvcolem1

@ParsnipHero basically in the game a mysterious figure kidnapped splinter and keeps him in an astral dimension causing the team of heroes to fight and "win" the game multiple times. Also the turtles can get light or dark astral powers in the game. So these astral wraiths come from the dimensional portals that are in this games story.
I havent played the game in a bit, but that is how I remember it. Also in all the turtles that ive read and watched...ive never seen these creatures.
