I beat Celeste. It was very good. Now I just have megaman 4-6 to beat before new smash.

Handsome Wife posted:If your complaint about Ittle Dew (which I haven't played, fwiw) was that it was derivative, Blossom Tales likely won't excite you. It's a pretty straightforward LttP clone. Well I don't mind it being a clone of one of the best games ever made but it does have to be original. Like a push the block puzzle or light the torch puzzles can't be blatantly that or should at least give you some challenges to get around. The Blossom Tales video had a good puzzle with torches and spinning fire balls and falling platforms all in one go that made it seem fun. The fact they took the Magic/Stamina meter from LBW was a wonderful decision. I didn't get far in Ittle Dew, so you can assume it got better, because it was very very simple and I can only hope that it got more complicated as it went on. The thing about Zelda vs Zelda-likes is that the former, despite repeating themselves over and over again somehow manage to make tried-and-true puzzles and stale activities feel constantly fresh and new. Pushing blocks, lighting torches, hitting switches is super enjoyable in Zelda due to excellent game design. When it's done well, which seems like Blossom Tales does, it's both original while being an homage to Zelda. When done poorly you wonder why are you spending time on these stupidly easy puzzles.

My favorite part of the souls series is remembering that Shu from sony play tested demon souls and thought it was a broken mess and didn't care for the game. They had to explain that's how the game was supposed to be. And it turns out you can pause dark souls by putting the switch to sleep.

Ittle Dew's shortcut puzzles and the master dungeon are all trickier than anything in a Zelda game. The amount of ways that all three items you get, especially the portal wand and ice rod, combine and interact is very well done. That said, the game is all about pushing the limits of block pushing puzzles, and there's basically no other puzzles. The easy beginning puzzles and the silly NES Zelda references made it seem amateurish to me at the start but I think it's actually a pretty great game.

problem with dark souls 1 is that 3 is insanely better in every respect. 1 is still a good game but when the game goes "oh poo poo you got the thing, now the REAL game begins" thats actually when the game falls down a toilet and dies its still a very good game though and probably better than anything else on switch bar Bayonetta 2 so ymmv

Was Bloodborne as horribly linear as Dark Souls 3? Also yeah to pause Dark Souls you can just stand there if you aren’t online

Sakurazuka posted:Eh I love Dark Souls but Monster Hunter has none of the things I enjoy about it and I find it pretty boring and grindy. You're not guaranteed to like both. Yeah, I've seen a lot of people in the souls community mock Monster Hunter for being a dumb and bad game for babbies and I've seen a lot of people in the monhun community mock Dark Souls for being a dumb and bad game for babbies so it's certainly not a given that you'll enjoy both. However if you are one of the lucky people who enjoy both (because despite their very different game loops they do have a lot of similarities!) you'll be set for thousands of hours of entertainment with only a couple of games though Andrast posted:Bloodborne had the occasional optional area but yeah it was a pretty linear experience.

Hentai Jihadist posted:BB is better but you can say that for every game My point is was that DS3 directly felt like an inferior Bloodborne whereas DS1 and DS2 (and Demon's) did their own thing. I appreciate the other games doing something interesting with the formula a lot which is why I personally rank them higher than DS3. Andrast fucked around with this message at 19:48 on Oct 13, 2018 |

Has anybody good gotten a chance to mess around with Starlink yet? I've been thinking about it a lot, and since the new rear end Creed officially sucks I feel like odds are pretty good Starlink doesn't.

I totally get the whole DS3 is a worse BB thing. It was good, but it places the most restrictions on build variety out of any game in the series. Fantastic environments and surprisingly good AI though

I enjoy both. For different reasons. I also like jrpgs and fps games. Lol of you cant enjoy different genres. They share deliberate combat and that's about it. But world was at the height of games 'journalist's calling everything "the dark souls of xxxx"

KingSlime posted:If you enjoy the punishing gameplay loop of monster Hunter I guarantee you'd gobble up dark souls. Both games hit the same notes for me in a very specific way. Don't miss out, whether you play the switch version, console version, original PC release with mods etc. Dark Souls doesn't let me be a cat. I did try the demo and it... didn't exactly wow me. I realize the demo probably suffers from the same problem that Monster Hunter demos have where it's actually a poor representation of the rest of the game but... I have plenty of games to play. I'm good.

So change your country and buy it somewhere else. It's probably cheaper too!
