Giant Bomb put up a good Quick Look video if anyone's on the fence.

Jim Silly-Balls posted:RIP horizon as your favorite game about 10 minutes after you start BOTW Horizon was the first 2017 release I played this year and really liked it at the time, but between everything else I played since it's fallen into the bottom of my top 10 for the year.

The visual and aural polish is on par with a Nintendo-released game. Jim Silly-Balls posted:RIP horizon as your favorite game about 10 minutes after you start BOTW I just picked up Horizon on sale a few months ago, after having played the hell out of BoTW. Had a hard time getting into it... I made it a little past "the trial" or whatever and lost interest pretty quick, but to be honest I'm really bad about that kind of thing with games.

Stan Taylor posted:i was watching the giant bomb Picross video when i noticed that the joy con icons on the ui match tbe color of the actual joy con, at least in the controller pairing screen. The Switch homebrew scene has decoded the JoyCons pretty well at this point -- it turns out that the color to be displayed is stored on rewritable JoyCon software and it's not too hard to set it to whatever you want. Check out Joy-Con Toolkit if you really wanna get artistic and magical.

I think it's a really well-realized post-apocalypse that isn't just "we nuked everything so it's a burnt-out husk" and Alloy as a character was pretty charismatic. The side quests were really good, too. With a little more polish they could have been Witcher 3 quality in that they weren't there as obvious filler but interesting little segments of story.

Fly with me posted:So, are the residents of Stardew Valley so helpful because you're the only source of agriculture around? Is that why you get money from putting your crops in the box, because they're buying them? Is this like a reverse farmers market? If you had waited any longer, would the entire town have died of malnutrition? You are all that stands between Pelican Town and the tyranny of Joja.

I disliked the early tribal stuff, liked the stuff surrounding meridian, liked the general concept behind the zero dawn project and how poo poo still exists post-apocalypse, didn't like that it leaned real hard on making Liz some near-infallible messiah figure while everything that went wrong in both the apocalypse happening and parts of zero dawn failing were from one person's continual fuckups.

Witcher 3 was great except for combat and that is like, a lot of the game so I don't know what to think. Also overly complex stuff everywhere

I recently got around to playing through Shadow of Mordor and after having played BotW even the occasional wall/hill/cliff that you couldn't climb was maddening. Not having to worry about stamina was nice though.

A weird thing about Volgarr. One of my favorite games of all time is Lost Vikings. This game really scratches that itch. However this game is really nothing at all like Lost Vikings. I got Trine a few years ago hoping it would scratch the same itch, and it is very similar to lost vikings but I just didn't like it. So maybe I just like vikings!?

Steamworld Dig 2 is at its best when you're doing the little puzzle dungeons but the core gameplay loop of digging down and collecting gems feels completely mindless and pointless to me.

Spellman posted:I also find the projector dock really enticing I wouldn’t buy this. It doesn’t look like it has any angle adjustments and the projector can only be used with the Switch. Also, while a portable projector sounds like a good idea, they suffer from the same issues as larger ones (you need a large, blank area in a dim environment) except they’re usually even dimmer than large projectors. Honestly if you want a projector to bring with your Switch the laser projector Sony makes is probably your best bet. It also costs more than the Switch + a pro controller.

It's definitely not pointless as that's how you earn money to buy upgrades and there are tons of secrets to find, but the mindless part is what I like so much about it. It's so relaxing!

Finally beat first world of Volgarr. Not sure how to dodge his club if I want to get in any decent amount of hits still, but I just tanked it this time after finally making it to him with enough powerups.
