Is Dragon Quest Builders any good? Liked the demo but I'm curious how long it is.

I really liked it, it's pretty fantastic if you're a fan of the franchise. I was a little disappointed by the length though. I beat it in one or two rentals from the public library.

Is starlink really 15 hours? I thought it was kind of perpetual. How they gonna keep you buying toys?

I definitely didn't rush the game and finished at 15 hours and had every planet at 100% safety. I killed all the Dreadnaught captains and finished every main story quest including the very last one to get every planet to 100% safety I identified some things early on that some people might miss that could potentially prolong their game, like timers of when things respawn if you don't defeat certain enemies within a given amount of time. Also my ship seemed pretty overpowered, which I enjoyed, focusing on skill recharge reduction mods so I didn't have much trouble in regards to difficulty. I ended up with one pilot at level 20+ and another at level 19 or so.

At a certain point in the game you unlock a base/tower that gives you 50% influence on the planets so that kind of trivializes the "get every planet to 100% safety". I technically didn't 100% everything, like I left some planets with 10+ chainsaw structures digging into the ground. Maybe if I had more ships/pilots to level I might have been inclined to do that, but I doubt it.

Astro7x posted:

That’s cool and all. But that doesn’t answer my question with what you can do with the physical game without the toys at all. My library will probably get this at some point and I’d like to check it out for free. But sometimes they are idiots and don’t include all the stuff that comes with it. Like we have that Animal Crossing Wii U game, but no Amiibo

Maybe I worded it poorly, I played through the entire game without ever taking my toys out of the box. Supposedly, you lose the in game items after a week if they aren't scanned in.

Yes. 1. Worth nothing. One of the regrets I have in my botw playthrough was not exploring the castle until I was ready to end the game.

It's designed for you to do runs into it as deep as you can go to get loot and weapons. If you wait you get tons of weapons you dont need. Wish I did it like after every beast tbh.

So fo find that memory now and have some fun before you run away.

DQB1 was mainly limited by the Vita having read up on it. The next one is going to have way bigger everything with that out of the picture. I was plenty happy with the length of it all the same, but I'd never played anything Minecraft.

Edit SE seems way more into listening to feedback these days. Octopath had a lot of QOL stuff done between the demo and launch. Builders 2 plainly has a lot of fan feedback going by the new features

You can just go straight there. Ganon even has moves he can only use if you skip beating the dungeon bosses.

Even further you can skip that whole dungeon with high enough stamina by climbing up the back

I took the octopath less travelered,

And it made one-eighth the difference.

quote:

G: The idea of the… increase of the character’s chest size. How did you come up with something like that?

YU: That is a feature included from the first game of the series. Originally, it was simply a rogue-like RPG with girls as protagonists, without this element. Such a simple premise wasn’t that fun, so Matrix Software came up with this idea to spice it up so that the users can enjoy watching it happen.

Of course garbage company Matrix Software was involved in this.

Finally fight my way through Undead Burg, defeat the Taurus Demon, talk to the very nice Sun Gentleman, desperate for a bonfire, I think perhaps there’s one across the bridge. Only a bunch of soldier zombies in my way, sure, I can handle that....

Anyway, break time.

You are given the 'defeat Ganon' quest as soon as you get the glider. IIRC an NPC even says something to the effect of "you can go after Ganon right now."

The most interesting thing about BotW is that some NPCs will tell you of some of the secret ways into the castle and that there is good poo poo to be found there, so you feel like it's a surmountable obstacle all of a sudden.

The guy points out that that system creates an easy way to determine the power of any character just by looking at them

Finding innovative ways to present gameplay information visually should be applauded, imo.

Seconds away from two bonfires depending on how you play things. :eng101:

The bridge was something that Demon Souls players saw and went, "Yeah, I know what's going to happen here." Other people had to go on extra paranoia.
