I'm not usually into point and click games, but the story sounds interesting. The art style is also pretty neat. I'm interested. Looking forward to a review.
There was more for me to be interested in/excited about in this presentation than there was in the Nintendo direct. I haven't been much into indies until fairly recently. Thank you for bringing these games to our attention!
I haven't touched Harvest Moon or Story of Seasons since I started playing Stardew Valley because SV always adequately satisfies the farming sim itch. Looking forward to the next SV update.
ACNH (I recently decided to redo about 60% of my island) Child of Light (which I said I was going to do last weekend, but ended up playing Splatoon 2 instead, oops) Bravely Default II Demo Might also download A Short Hike this weekend, but if I don't get to it, maybe next weekend.
I've also already played the demo for Summer in Mara this weekend. Wasn't just wowed by it. May get it far in the future with a good discount (or once I've worked through some my backlog. . .whichever happens first).
If I decide to get this, I think I will wait for patches/updates to fix bugs. May wait for a discount too.
I admit that I've never played BOTW, or any other survivalist game either, so most of the comparisons given mean little to nothing to me. This game piqued my interest about trying out the genre though. The reviews that I've been reading about it have given me pause about jumping right in at this time. Maybe down the road.
Other than BOTW, are there other survivalist games that people have enjoyed? I'm open to recommendations.
I never finished the GameCube version. It is a beautiful game (I have the soundtrack and I love it), but I hated the controls in solo mode (and I didn't have any friends who also played the game). If the multi-player mode was less of a mess, this would've been a maybe. This will be a pass for me.
If they came out with the My Life as King games, I'd get those day one.
I'm on the fence with this one. I loved the GameCube version, except for the controls in solo play (I never had anyone to co-op with). I'll wait and see if the online features make it worth it.
I'm bummed that Mayo lost, but overall I thought it was so much fun. This was my first Splatfest for Splatoon 2 (played most of the Splatfests for the first Splatoon). I hope that Splatfests become a regular thing again. It seems like there are a lot of new players now since a lot of people got a Switch since quarantine started.
I've never felt the need to time travel because I feel like it's easier to make money in New Horizons than it is in previous AC games, just by playing the game. I only started playing a couple of weeks ago, and I already paid off my 2nd room of my house. I've never paid off loans that fast before.
I have a few amiibo cards from back in the day (hoping to get Goldie to stay). Otherwise I like the random villagers. Cranston moved into my town a few days ago, and I love him (I had never had him in an AC town before)!
I never finished Bravely Default (and never even purchased the 3ds sequel). I really wanted to like it, but lost interest fairly quickly. Bravely Default 2 does look beautiful though. This is a "wait and see" for me. May try the demo (if I get my switch lite anytime soon).
The coral pink switch lite was originally due to come out April 3rd (US). I noticed a few days ago that that date had been removed on Amazon, and they don't know when they'll be in stock. May have to wait awhile longer than originally expected. Bummer. 😕
Don't get my Switch for a couple more weeks. I might play some Fantasy Life or Ever Oasis on my 3ds. I was glad those came out on 3ds, but I would be ecstatic if both of them were ported to the Switch!
Lately I've been taking into account my actual gaming habits over the past few years. This has helped me to let go of the games that I no longer want to play, and it has helped me to be more particular about what I purchase.
I said a couple of years ago that I would never get a Switch. This game has changed everything! I pre-ordered this and a coral pink Switch Lite (the latter of which sadly won't come until April, but the wait will be worth it)! I'm so excited!

Re: Guide: Nintendo Switch Fall/Winter Games - All The Big Games Coming In 2020, And Beyond
Going to try the demo for Bravely Default II. I never finished the first one, so I don't know if it will be for me.
Might get Pikmin 3. Not sure about Mario 3d All Stars (though I LOVED Super Mario Sunshine back in the day), it's also a maybe.

Re: Reminder: Splatoon 2's "Bonus One-Off" Splatfest Takes Place This Weekend
I couldn't decide which team to be on, so I let my kids pick. I thought they were going to pick Ketchup, but it was a unanimous vote for Mayo!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (March 21st)
@Mainsaile I pre-ordered a coral pink switch lite. It's not out until early April (at least I hope it's still early April).
