I have D3 on PC and I still bought it on my Switch :shrug:

I'd probably buy Overwatch for Switch if all my unlocked poo poo came across and it had crossplay

it would do neither of those things, guaranteed

Been playing some Moonlighter physical. Pretty fun, and a lot more forgiving than games similar to it.

Blizzard can jerk people around all they want but I still say there's 0% chance Overwatch comes to Switch. Anyone who wants to play it def has it already and they've bitched endlessly as is about how much of a hassle it is to update 3 different versions. I doubt they'll throw a 4th one on top and make more work for themselves.

The devs can bitch all they want, if the higher ups figure it'll sell enough to justify the extra hours with the updates it's a no-brainer. I wouldn't be at all surprised if it's announced at some point.

I was really not into paying $60 for a 6 year old game but all my friends got Diablo 3 and peer pressured me into it with them

This game is

1) MUCH more fun on the switch than PC. Seriously it's a totally new game
2) Much more fun than I remember in general. I know they do constant improvements and patches but wow it's good now
3) Insanely well suited for the Switch
4) The only time I have seen my Switch battery go from 100-0%, multiple times

Worth it. Animal Crossing is the last pure thing left in video games, Mr. Resetti & Tom Nook's gentle extortion withstanding.

Gentle my rear end. The switch version better let me shank Resetti and turn Nook into the Gimp. With full leather and a chest to live in.

And integration with Pocket Camp.

Such a thing would be the undoing of my entire family.

Nook doesn't extort anybody. He gives you a house and upgrades and says "No interest, pay me this much at your own pace, when it's paid off I'll expand it for you. Take your time". He gives you an infinite zero interest loan

You should try Paladins then, it's kinda like Overwatch but free. Also there's a patch coming this week for it that will include gyro controls, which is nice.

I think I'm the only goon who's reading this thread, generally keeping up with it, who doesn't have one yet. I plan on getting one when I can (one income right now, so it's definitely not in the budget until that situation changes), but until then, Nintendo-related news is really the only videogame news I give a poo poo about.

I liked Nintendo just fine before, but with two kids, you learn to appreciate the hell out of them.

Yeah, it's not at all clear that Google Play Movies purchases are also streamable through YouTube. It's handy, though, as pretty every smart TV/streaming box/game console has YouTube but like none of them have a GPM app.
Sorry to continue this derail, but I'd just like to say that I never knew this as I'd never thought to check the Purchases section of YouTube. Definitely good to know, though!

I think Animal Crossing on Switch should have a hard mode where the villagers are all total demanding assholes like they were in the GameCube one and Resetti emotionally abuses you to no end like god intended

You can rent films directly through YouTube, no GPM needed. Again, Google is really bad about publicising that film rentals and purchases are available on YouTube, and that your "library" is the same and shared on both apps. Renting through GPM will make the film available on YouTube as well.

However, you can't rent directly through the Switch app--you have to pull up the film's page on your PC or phone, rent it there, and then pull it up on the Switch either through your purchases page or just by searching for the movie.

I've been making some more progress in Dark Souls lately, and I can really see why it's so highly regarded compared to the other two, at least from a world design pov. Felt like a bigshot opening the pass between Firelink and the lower Undead Burg.

I just cleared the Depths last night. I've been careful about not running headlong into stuff so when I found that section with all the basalisks I managed to kill them all without getting cursed. There's some good items down there too. A friend of mine saved me some time when I was about to go down into the gaping dragon's arena by pointing out where the shortcut back to the depths bonfire was. The Dragon itself was surprisingly easy. Only took a few trys to understand it's patterns. It seems a lot like the Last Giant in DS2, where you want to fight unlocked so you can see all of its super obvious tells that are a lot less obvious when you're fighting locked.

Anyway, I guess it's Blighttown is next. I know a bit about this place, so I might head back to dark root garden to get some more blooming purple moss. I've already mucked around over there a lot, so getting some more shouldn't be an issue.
