My friend gave me Bayonetta 1 and 2 as a post surgery gift and I'm finding it really hard. Combos don't seem to fire off even though I'm hitting the right button sequences, lock on doesn't seem to do anything and the camera is a struggle. Does anyone have any advice on how to suck less at this game or is there a dedicated threads where I can get advice?

My most played action games are bloodborne and breath of the wild and I'm having serious trouble adjusting to this games control scheme and timing.

The dots in the combos are pauses you need to learn the timing

The camera sucks try not to micromanage it

But that’s how it is when you start wanting to have things. Now, I just look at them, and when I go away I carry them in my head. Then my hands are always free, because I don’t have to carry a suitcase.

The Chocobo Mystery Dungeon game, it's a port, correct?

It's a port of the Wii game and it's kinda mediocre as a dungeon crawler but if we're grading it on the curve of Dungeon Crawlers On Consoles it's completely fine and very cute.

I think it's a sequel, https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/chocobos-mystery-dungeon-every-buddy-switch says "A new installment of the ever-popular series is here!" and talks about systems that weren't in the first game.

I absolutely loved the first one so I pre-ordered this one already, but a lot of that was probably my love for the classic FF style and job system and not that the game was objectively great.

If Bayonetta is hard try the one hand mode. It simplifies some things and automates some actions and in general is a good accessibility mode

Too much.

$20. To be fair there was a lot of work done to it, at least with the Steam version. If this is anything similar, it's a really, really quality port.

$20 is a steal for one of the greatest FPS games of the 90's :colbert:

That's dope, this will be the only time that NES Contra's ever been rereleased outside of a bonus in Contra 4. Unless they do the most Konami thing possible and just include the arcade version

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

Aww poo poo I wasn't thinking anything of the posts about how the Switch wifi sucks cause I wasn't taxing it too much, just Tetris 99 and a few downloads but tried the free Splatoon 2 today and disconnected from four of the five matches I managed to get into. Don't have an Ethernet option in this room and I'm not gonna bother with powerline plus the Switch adapter but at least I learned enough to keep from buying this or Mario Kart or Smash unless I intend to get a lot out of singleplayer/local. Game seems fun though.

I know the PS4 wifi is reviled too but I never have trouble with AC7 online. Just netcode?

okay i finally pulled the trigger. I ordered Breath of the Wild (with an explorer's guide?), a Pro controller and the neon console with the eshop credit.

I think I'm gonna use the eshop credit on Mario Kart at some point and will probably make my way through SMO, Rabbids, and the rest eventually. Excited to join you guys!

Don't use the guide unless you want to find something specific or get stumped.

I admit that Konami putting all of this on everything ---even Steam---is the biggest move they've ever made in terms of game preservation, even if they're not quite at the level Capcom's been at with their legacy collections. However I doubt the 3 CV GBA games will be part of that collection and we really loving need the Alucard/Richter games elsewhere.

If they're gonna do collections, now's the time to just swallow their pride and put out Metal Gear Solid 1/2/3.
