harry potter was also like, the most popular thing in the world for a while, so it's not like the appeal of school setting + fantasy is unique to anime/manga

Oxxidation posted:apex legends is very boring and I acquit myself of it at once take command of your team's fate when you get JM and launch immediately at as near perpendicular as possible, pick up guns, run towards the shooting, survive or die in the first minutes (I get it if you don't like BR, just suggesting this because it improved my own fun a lot--if only because it shuts down the tedious loot and wait cycle you refer to)

Tetris 99 literally seems like the best Battle Royale yet and the only one I'm interested in The only thing that would be more fun is a wrestling game doing a 99 man Royal Rumble thing or something

I have no good sense of how to play tetris past getting one or two liners at a time so my sides get out of control and uneven Then come the attacks and I'm 80/99 or some poo poo

whats a “light novel” it’s kind of like a 50/50 split between a manga and a book right

I don't have a Switch but I love that something like Tetris 99 exists, it's such a far-out concept and they just dropped it out of nowhere and it works, the whole thing is amazing It's like all those jokes people would make "100 ___ are dropped on an island" but taken seriously

Cowcaster posted:whats a “light novel” it’s kind of like a 50/50 split between a manga and a book right It's basically the equivalent of "young adult" novels, so to speak. Occasionally they'll have an artist draw a few pictures for it, but that's it. Though a lot of the genre has been codified towards anime/manga/video game tropes.

What was the first "Whoa we're just normal people but now we're in a fantasy setting!" piece of media y'all consumed? My first was Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe. It had talking beavers in it.

Mighty Max seems like a game idea someone should've used by now. Captain Toad is about the closest you come to a self contained playable diorama .

light novels are specifically called 'light novels' because they're mostly dialogue with prose not really going on that long, so they're very breezy reads. they also, yeah, trend to trend young adult for that reason, though there's plenty that are aimed at older audiences. they usually have some illustrations for key scenes but not a ton, and they're usually released in volumes of 100-200 pages, with most 'active' ones releasing 2-4 volumes a year. They also tend to be more serialized, with distinct arcs, and in some cases are just straight up episodic in nature. So they differ in some key ways from western YA novels but they're broadly similar.
