Switch Terraria will be cool if they let you use the touchscreen in handheld mode. I was bummed that Picross was controller only.

Is it even possible to spoil Skyrim in 2017

I guess actually probably only 10% of people do the main quest or whatever because it's not really fun or interesting and the only point of doing it is to get Dragonrend

I played Skyrim for 250+ hours and probably did 1/4 of the main quest total.

I’d appreciate Skyrim spoiler tags too since I think most of the people that are interested in picking it up on Switch here never played it.

There are just too many GOTYs on the Switch and only so many hours in a day.

What a great terrible time to be alive.

Nope that's bullshit and you know it

You're talking about a game that is coming out for the first time on a Nintendo console literally next week, posting major story spoilers for it in any nintendo thread is absolutely not kosher

Fine, but hey, at least this rings true:

Seriously, the story is the last thing that people play the game for, so out of all spoilers for anything, this one ranks pretty low. I've never beaten the game, and I own it twice over, and have played it probably for the same amount of time as Internet Kraken.

Lmao skyrim spoilers? Pull you head out your rear end

BattleMaster posted:

Yeah maybe, but repackaging Street Fighter 2 for the fiftieth time was all they had which shows they didn't really devote much in the way of resources to Switch development.

They sold a bad port of a 25 year old game for 40 dollars to over 2 million people and made big bank. Its like a dream scenario for a company in terms of risk/reward.

What are you trying to say? That they are mad they didnt make less money by funding a aaa game and getting regular profit margins out of it?

I mean yeah it's not a big deal and my first Skyrim playthrough will still be fun but I still think it's inconsiderate

I'm gonna pay 60 bucks for it drat it, let me enjoy it on my terms!!

I did slightly spoil myself on the ending to SMO and I wish I hadn't because it might have set my expectations too high for what was otherwise a neat but not mind-blowing sequence of events

Look I probably played Oblivion for over 500 hours a kid. Bethesda games scratch an itch in my idiot brain that lets me enjoy the process of walking around stabbing stuff for no reason. I'm not gonna pretend its deep content but I enjoy it for some reason.

At worst people will just comment that they personally will opt to play the PC version, etc
