@frogopus @DartBuzzer Yeah I have PSVR and I enjoy plenty on it. I am a little more prone to VR sickness but I can play certain games. And like I said BotW is surprisingly playable for me.
I was merely arguing against calling it a failure simply because the game made the author sick. That's simply what happens to some people, especially if they're not used to VR.

I tried Skyrim VR last year and was literally sick for a couple days. So my analysis was that I am too sensitive to play it, not that it is a colossal failure.
Interestingly enough, I was okay playing BotW VR.

@subpopz I haven’t played the messenger but it doesn’t compare with Celeste at all, though not much can. It’s a decent platformer but I found the controls too slippery and gave up about halfway through.
Check out the demo and see if you like it though.

Wow what a nice surprise. This brings back memories. Wonder if Forsaken will get a reboot next.

This is still a rumor, isn't it? The internet seems to be reacting to this like it's a fact. I've already seen a few people on various sites say they're going to wait till next year to buy the revision.

@jobvd I guess but it's basically the same. And I can just imagine explaining to non gamers: "The B button is the A button and the Y button is the B button." and there would be mass confusion lol.

Anyway, I just mentioned it as I've seen a number of people talk about how uncomfortable it is to play Mario because they were using the B button to run, which would be an awkward way to play.

For people complaining about the button layout, The X button doubles as a B button. So you can play using the X and A buttons quite comfortably.

That's funny, the original ending idea he described was actually what I was expecting, but while I typically like more subtlety, I actually am okay with the way they went with it.

The game is great, one of my top games ever and Torna has been great so far (over 20 hours in). In some ways I almost like Torna more as it doesn't feel so overwhelming and it doesn't have random blades.

@NakamaRise That’s the thing though, people didn’t buy the 3ds and so they lowered the price and pushed some great games and it became a great system. Complaining doesn’t do anything but bring negativity which just invited more negativity. Whatever you feed is what will survive.

If you don’t like it, don’t purchase it and that will communicate more effectively without all the constant negativity. I’ve found myself staying away from these sites more and more just because all the negativity really gets to me after a while. This is a hobby after all; I’d rather have fun with things I enjoy than complain about things I don’t.

I thought it had been cleared up that your saves are not deleted as soon as your subscription is over, simply that you can’t access it without a subscription. Eventually it’d probably disappear but not like it immediately is gone.

That’s an odd way to write 10/10.
One of the best games I’ve ever played. Looking forward to playing it again

Heard a lot of good things about this. The review seems pretty positive and doesn’t really read like a 7 but maybe that’s just me. Definitely will get this, though I still have so many others to work through first.

Velocity 2X is a great game! Have it on PS4 and will definitely get it again.

That’s a shame. It’s actually a really good game. I believe most of the people saying it should be $20 haven’t actually played the full game. It’s very similar to Theatrhythm (same developer) in that its a simple concept but put in a great package and a lot of content. I guess Theatrhythm was okay at full price because of the Final Fantasy name.

I know we already have too many games, but wasn’t Figment supposed to come out today?

So excited to play this again. Even without the new content I was going to double dip. This just sweetens the deal. One of the best games I've played in my life. My Life!

So happy this is finally on Switch. Still one of my favorite games. IMO this deserves nothing less than than a 9.

Super excited for this! One of my favorite games ever. And Metanet are good people too.

Just one less reason for me to turn on my PS4.

That doesn't look anything like the inside of Martin Short!

Power sliding on Y makes sense to me, since most driving games have the hand brake assigned to that button.

I agree that communication can really make a big difference. I always feel like the team does much better when the group is communicating (that doesn't mean spamming "What a save!" when they score lol).

Played part of this on PS4. It wasn't quite as good as Teslagrad, but still had a lot of charm. Looking forward to playing on Switch!

@Biff_ARMStrong The release date says 11/17 which is weird for an eShop release. Hopefully it’s actually tomorrow.

Really looking forward to this. Appreciate their optimism and attention to detail. And i always like when devs reward early buyers with a introductory sale.

Whatever it is, I know I’ll get it day one.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE I could be wrong, but from what I understand, Ittle Dew 2+ has an exclusive Dream World with 5 additional dungeons. And 2 is on Steam for $20, without the Dream World.

Played a bit of Rocket League last night. Just as fun as I remembered it. One match had some stuttering, but I think that was an internet issue. Even playing handheld, it performed great. So excited to play this again.

Also, looking forward to Ittle Dew 2+, though I'm not sure if I'll get physical or digital.

If the week wasn't so jam packed, I might have considered LA Noire.

I really have been anxious to play this, but after reading all the performance problems the PC port had, I figured this would end up poor as well. Every time the devs would talk about the game, they would complain and it seemed like ultimately their optimization was just really poor. That's a shame as I hear really good things about the game otherwise.

@invictus4000 And a collectable figure.

I think the way Nintendo has handled season passes has been good. They don't start working on them till the game is done, so it's not cut content, it's additional content.

One thing that is funny is that people judge a season pass before the content is released, which is really odd since there's no way to know whether it will be worth it or not. It's just a way to know that there is even more coming so if you want more, you can buy more. You can also wait until it actually releases before buying it so again... I don't really understand the rush to judge it.

Also, price has very little to do with length of content. Price is determined by how much time, money and man hours went into making something.

But most importantly... less than three weeks to Xenoblade!

@Masurao I played BotW on Switch and have over 300 hours. And I’m still playing. Some people just enjoy the game more than others.

Well I'm glad Link doesn't get the Pyra outfit lol

Not sure why people are so upset over the DLC. It seems like more content than the BotW pass and it's pretty common practice nowadays to announce DLC before the game comes out. It lets people know that even after they finish the game they can enjoy even more if they want. (Kinda funny how people were upset when Mass Effect Andromeda cut their DLC plans).

And at least Nintendo is good about paid DLC being made AFTER the game is finished, so those who don't get it aren't missing anything from the main game.

Wow Skyrim, Rime, VVVVVV and now RIVE? 11/17 is going to be a busy day for gaming.

Looking forward to this. I played a couple levels of this a while ago and it was a lot of fun.

As some have stated, definitely finish the game before you make a final opinion. The first few kingdoms, I was a little underwhelmed but the more I play it, the more I enjoy it. And the post game content really is awesome.

It’s funny that people complain about difficulty in a mario game. They haven’t been difficult since Sunshine. They always are really easy and then the very final (post game) level is suddenly ridiculously hard. Lol.

Anyone else notice that 4.0.0 also updates the play activity? Before any game under 5 hours just said “Played for a little while.” Now it actually says “Played for 1 hour or more,” “Played for 2 hours or more” etc. Small but nice. Hopefully we get a full Play Activity soon.

I have played this multiple times and I am still excited about this. One of my favorite indie games. Just pure, perfectly frustrating fun.

As a side question, does anyone know how to pronounce the name? Saying “vvvvvv” seems wrong lol

"While colorful and filled with happiness-inducing sound effects, the worlds are bereft of the type of details and life that make other games feel like a genuine place."

Funny as I read this on a Steam User review yesterday:
"One of the best things I can say about this game that so many other platformers fail to accomplish is it feels like you're actually in a living, breathing, world."

I'm not arguing this review, just made me laugh at the difference in people's perspective.

"Additionally, people don't like to play unknown songs so I picked famous classical pieces from the past 400 years, which are no doubt recognised as 'great pieces of music'."

Also, public domain lol.

But I will actually keep my eye on this. Seems like it could be cool, if the joy con can actually work. Given that he is a musician first, I would imagine getting the feeling of playing right would be a priority.

Honestly, all I really want are Folders and the ability to sort games on the home screen. Badges and Themes would be nice but only if they don't slow down the system.

The eShop is fine for me, other than maybe a cart (basket in the UK ) to buy multiple games in one transaction.

Agree with all the other comments, this is a great game. Probably my favorite indie game this year. Glad to see it doing so well.

@N8tiveT3ch I'm pretty sure the Trial run is the special thing the devs were talking about.

@Lost_Hope Nice to see another person who actually enjoyed Other M.

@OuterTsuchinoko It’s not a perfect game but it’s very fun and while very melodramatic, the story isn’t that bad. Don’t let other people’s negativity stop you from trying it. Other M is just one of those games people jumped on and made a big deal out of its flaws.

Anyway... yes, Super Metroid is one of the greatest games ever made and one of the best examples of good game design.

@Nincompoop lol Yes, I have played it.

From the review you posted:

"Swiping a block will extend it in a direction of your choice along the grid.. A number in each block tells you how many spaces a line from it should extend, so you have the blueprint and materials all right in front of you.

The catch, however, is that you can’t directly control the length of a line; it will keep shooting outward in a direction until it hits another block."

The lines only go straight and have to be a specific length. This game just requires a specific length. Or is it because I said draw instead of extend?

@sketchturner I wholeheartedly agree!

@Nincompoop It's similar, but not the same. Tappingo has you drawing straight lines. This has you drawing lines in any shape. It's a small change but the way you go about solving it is very different.

I think it's a good puzzle game. The puzzles are not overly challenging but they are satisfying. As mentioned the music gets very grating and there is a lack of polish in the menus but the game itself is solid.

@JaxonH It's on the eShop now. Physical release is in October, I think.

I really hope this happens. One of the best games I have ever played. I would gladly get this again. This and N++ and my PS4 will become practically useless lol.

That sound is officially described as "pi-ro-po-pon-pon!"

@zipmon thanks for the quick reply! That's a shame. I don't mind preset art (I'm not an artist), but I would have loved to put my own music in the game.

Can anyone say how music works in this game? Does it just have some preset tunes you choose from or is there some way to add music like a music editor or something? That would make a big difference to me.

While I know I'll enjoy Metroid Prime 4, Pearson's comments are exactly what I had been hoping for in a new Metroid game. A BotW-like reinvention of the series as a third person adventure with a full 3D world to explore.

@andisart actually the statement is they "have not announced any plans to localize MHXX at this time."
So it's possible they have already begun just haven't announced it. Either way, this seem like typical Gamespot reporting and I'm actually surprised I believed it.

@JaxonH Ah beat me to it lol. Yes I have hope as well.

I'm pretty sure that Redout date is incorrect. Amazon and GameStop both say July 25th and I don't think there has actually been an official release date announcement.
