Good God, I hope Octopath has a Japanese language option. It's not Xenoblade bad, but it's trying to be.

The demo already has one.

Look on the bright side.



I think the voice acting in Octopath is fine but it’s also unnecessary. It’s awkward to have it in a game with 16bit looking characters just standing around and just kills the pacing.

If you turn on the Japanese language option in Octopath and talk to the troublemaker guy in the top left of the town he does the Tim Allen grunt.

I'm pretty excited for Octopath. I found a lot to do in the demo with just the small handful of areas and two characters. I liked how the weaknesses and out of battle skills made the individual characters in your party matter a lot, so I'm looking forward to seeing that dialed up to 8 characters in the final product.

DOOM on pc is like, 100GB or something now with the new patches. I wanted to play the game the other day but uninstalled it because 100GB


haha no its not. it's 67GB on my hard drive right now and like most of that is because of multiplayer and updates and poo poo. they will fit the single player game on a game card no problem and you'll have to get an sd card if you want multiplayer (but i dont know why you would cos its poo poo)

i hope the switch reaches nes levels and we get more slightly downgraded backward ports which become so popular that the switch versions are the only versions anyone remembers existing.

Primrose's actress is very good. I still skipped over the majority of voice acting because it just slows things down when you can read the dialogue boxes instead, but I do that in most games.

Yeah I skipped a lot but the difference in her speech when she's speaking to the tavern owner and speaking to everyone else is pretty great work.

It's not causing drama and not hard to port. The port is done and in final stages of approval to go up on the eShop. There's just two poo poo posters who ask about it every page.

I started playing I am Setsuna. Is the entire game going to be trying to be melancholy? This is supposed to be a full length JPRG, right, so I dunno if I'm up for 40 hours of sad music and snow falling off pine trees.

I believe the piano tune you are hearing constitutes the majority of the game's soundtrack, so

Octopath Traveller's pretty neat. I love how the Bosses are rendered as big detailed sprites to set them apart from regular enemies and characters in-battle.

Doom's multiplayer was outsourced to some former Bungie devs and dear god does it show. Slow rear end floaty jumping, only two guns at once, a multiplayer announcer who appears to have been heavily sedated. And Bethesda went all in on the multiplayer aspect with the DLC is the best part

Does Setsuna get better? At the start she's so one-note tragically perfect and perfectly tragic I can't imagine ever actually caring about what happens to her.
