A FUCKIN CANARY!! posted:

It was be awesome/hilarious if you could set the voice actors per character and have just Zelda speak Spanish while leaving everyone else English. English Zelda is the only actor that stands out as being really bad to me. It got to where I just took my headphones off whenever she was on screen.

The King was the worst by far for me, it sounds like someone with zero VO experience

This started out okay and then got worse every second I watched it. A beat em up with smooth art? Oh wait its furries. Oh, its flat and not 2.5D. And its really flashy and... meh.

I don't really care if it's cheap or not- I'm actually pretty worried about Nintendo charging a service fee for online. There's so many disconnects spread around to various people on MK8 that it's genuinely unacceptable- along with latency issues and Nintendo Lag still out in full force I'm kinda down on it.

It seems like you can't play with randoms online in MK8 with a friend?

Like you can if you're both local playing on the same switch but there doesn't seem to be a way to play with your friend online unless its JUST with your friends and bots. :v:

My circle of friends are using Tournaments for this. Matchmaking in "Global" or "Regional" seems to be only for Solo/Local.

1) Look for a tournament that fits your needs and is kinda active.
2) Player A joins the Tournament until he gets a room with enough slots left for everybody.
3) Other people join Player A through the Friends and Rivals Menu.

It's not ideal, but it works OK for our 4-5 people groups. We are sitting in VoiP during this, so it's easy to coordinate.

well why not

Kinda bounced off of Shovel Knight at first, but I finished up the main campaign on the weekend and totally vibed on it. Definitely a great game and a perfect fit for the Switch. I've tried out Plague & Spector so far and am really enjoying Spector Knight's gameplay, it reminds me a bit of Megaman Zero, with the melee combat and boss portal.

Plague Knight I have a lot of trouble controlling, almost feel like I'm missing something. He can absolutely shred enemies with the bombs but I feel like the platforming is really hit & miss because the burst, while predictable, is quite hard to control.

It all sounds cool but aside from the hard mode it all sounds like stuff that would be great for a first playthrough which just makes me wish all of it was already in.

Permanent glow mode Master Sword?? :eyepop:

The Moblins on floating platforms look like they're going to be a fun to send crashing to the hard and unforgiving ground.

The travel medallion would've been a godsend for my playthrough too, goddamn.


I like that even Link looks disgusted by the existence of that outfit.

Crawfish posted:

I'm hoping the reward for sword trial is a Master Sword that doesn't wear out and go into unusable mode.

But it's more likely it'll just be malice own zone all the time mode.

Doesn't the sword's durability skyrocket in glow mode? I carved a path through Hyrule Castle with it and only got low on energy when I reached the end. Just clearing out the guardhouse fights would've broken other weapons, let alone the handful of guardians and unlucky mooks I murdered with it along the way.

Those floating platforms make the triple-shot bows even more fun. 1-shotting all 3 balloons while midair is going to be very satisfying.

It lasts way longer in glowing mode, but it's still relatively short. Like, you can only take out about 10 Guardians before it's gone for 15 minutes. It's pretty annoying to try and source ancient cores and giant ancient cores with the sword being that way.

15 guardians is still a ridiculous amount of durability compared to literally anything else in the game.


I wish the sword recharged at all times as well, not only after being totally drained of energy. It's annoying to go exploring for the better part of an hour only to encounter some chump, hit them twice, and have the Master Sword run out of energy mid-combo.

It's just another larger jump arc. Like you said, it's predicatable, so you just need to get used to using it and visualizing the arc and it'll just be a triple jump basically.

Also, save your regular double jump for after the bomb burst where possible because it's where most of your air control comes from.

You can join your friend when they're in a lobby about to start a game through the friends list in MK8, you'll see a flag by their name then click it and hit Join. Of course, lobbies stay together for very short periods of time so this doesn't work that well. And most lobbies are full.
