I have played the demo. I simultaneously loved and was disappointed in the demo. The game looks like a mid-2000s game. But the gameplay was all the fun a Dragon Warrior Monsters game.
My brother wants to play Tears of the Kingdom, but doesn't want to feel like he would be taking the switch away from me. So this is an easy answer. Let him take my Switch and I upgrade to the new model.
I picked this game up on Steam a few years ago. Unfortunately I was never able to get it running properly. So I'm excited for the opportunity to actually play this game.
I love how everyone seems to be trying to distract people by blaming anything on inflation other than the government printing and handing out more money. You would have thought we would have learned this lesson after Germany in World War I.
@Ryan_Again I am holding out on buying the game until wave 4 of the dlc rolls out. I made that mistake with XC2. I bought the DLC but I never went back to replay the game with the DLC.
If we do get Twilight Princess HD and Wind Waker HD announced now, then it will be a poor sign for BotW2. I can only see those games coming if BotW2 is delayed for another year or two.
@Travisemo007 well, it makes sense that the monster design in the DQ games are reminiscent of Dragon Ball Z considering that they both have the same artist, Akira Toriyama.
I loved the Dragon Warrior (Quest) Monster games as a kid. It's a shame that the past couple of games have been japan exclusives. So I'm happy for any other games, that have that same premise.
I don't know why, but I read the title as "a potent combination of Spiritfairer and Spirited Away," which would be a pretty interesting premise as long as the game could pull off the emotional storytelling.
So, now I'm a bit disappointed because I wasn't a huge fan of Overcooked's gameplay.
Thankfully I reread the title before I left a comment that made me seem like a complete idiot.
@Flashlink99 If one do switch was the free tie in game like Wii sports was, then I would agree with you. But as a standalone $60 game, It is a terrible overpriced cash grab.
@Vexx234 You also lose the interactive component when you translate a game to a movie/TV/book. This is something that I feel will always make videogame adaptations worse.
@BenAV If the game is coming in March 2022, and then a game awards reveal would probably make sense. But if the game is coming late in 2022 or later then it's way too early.
I really enjoyed P.N.03. The game was really short but I remember playing it multiple times to unlock all the content.
Well if I am being honest, I'm not sure if my desire was from enjoying the gameplay, or the attractive woman in a form fitting cat suit dancing through the stage.
I'll say the same thing that I always say when these discussions happen.
There is no problem with someone cheating, modifying, hacking, or any other kind of manipulation with a single player game. It only becomes a problem when you're playing a multiplayer game and your modification affects another player's experience, without their permission.
It seems that the other companies gave Nintendo the victory for this E3. I tried not to get my hopes up too much and I enjoyed Nintendo's presentation. I was surprised there were plenty of games both myself and my sister will be excited for.
I first read this as "what is the best game boy color color?" And I thought obviously it's atomic purple. I was a little confused when they were asking about the games.
I try not to get too excited for the directs or any presentation. It helps me to appreciate what games we are actually getting, and not get myself upset that my wild expectations are not met.

Re: Surprise! Nintendo Is Officially Working On A Live-Action Legend Of Zelda Movie
I'd rather hear about a new game. A videogame receiving a movie adaptation always seems like a step back.
That said. I am a Zelda fanboy. (My puppy is named Zelda after all.) So I will most likely see the movie.
Re: Analogue's CEO Reckons Not Even Nintendo Could Beat Its New 'N64'
Reading the f-words in the CEO's quote, just lowered my opinion of this company.

Re: Feature: The 15 Best Zelda Bosses, Ranked

Re: Penny's Big Breakaway Is A Gorgeous 3D Platformer From The Sonic Mania Team
Anytime I see a new 3D platformer I get excited. I'm still going to wait for the reviews and see how the game turns out. But it's on my radar.

Re: Set Off On An Emotional Journey With 'Blanc', Out February 2023
This game looks interesting. My only question is how well will it hold up as a single player game?
Re: Exclusive: 'Onsen Master' Is A Potent Mix Of Overcooked And Spirited Away
I don't know why, but I read the title as "a potent combination of Spiritfairer and Spirited Away," which would be a pretty interesting premise as long as the game could pull off the emotional storytelling.
So, now I'm a bit disappointed because I wasn't a huge fan of Overcooked's gameplay.

Re: Apparently There's A 1-2-Switch Sequel In The Works At Nintendo, And Everyone Hates It
@Flashlink99 If one do switch was the free tie in game like Wii sports was, then I would agree with you. But as a standalone $60 game, It is a terrible overpriced cash grab.
Re: Legend Of Zelda Fans Accuse Indie Game Of "Ripping-Off" Link's Awakening
@Anachronism Wait this game is a rogue-like. Well that just kills all my interest in this game.
Re: Legend Of Zelda Fans Accuse Indie Game Of "Ripping-Off" Link's Awakening
It looks like too much of a knockoff at this point. Maybe later on it'll start diverging on its own path, but until then I'm not really interested.
Re: Zelda Is The Franchise Fans Want To See Next At The Cinema, According To Poll
@Vexx234 You also lose the interactive component when you translate a game to a movie/TV/book. This is something that I feel will always make videogame adaptations worse.
Re: Feature: The Best Hidden Gems And Underrated Switch Games Of 2021
I loved Blue Fire. It was the best 3D platformer I played this year.
Re: Talking Point: What Did You Think Of The Game Awards 2021?
I wouldn't have bothered to watch the game awards, if it weren't for my friends attending the show in person.
Re: Game Journalist Thinks The Next Zelda: BOTW 2 Reveal Is Likely To Be In 2022

Re: Review: Demon Turf - A Tight, Stylish 3D Platformer With Plenty Of 'Tude
I normally love 3D collectathons, but I can't get pass the aesthetic. I do not like this art style one bit.
Re: Demon Turf Brings Stylish 3D Platformer Action To Switch Next Month
I am not a fan of this art style, especially the main character. I'll probably pass on this game, which is unfortunate because I love 3D platformers.

@A1DR1K I have found the link to the Bravely Default 2 OST on YouTube Music. https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_korzP9QtzlQbkimVn5s5Xtf4mdGr_dDnA
Unfortunately it doesn't look like the other two soundtracks are available on YouTube Music yet, hopefully they will be coming.

I don't have a Spotify account, but if Square will add this to YouTube Music then I definitely will listen to it.
