Pollyanna posted:All of a sudden, my left joycon refuses to charge (or something). Every time I connect it to the Switch and watch its status in the Controllers screen, it rapidly cycles between a mostly-full battery, an almost-empty battery, and an almost-empty battery with a a charging icon - even if the console isn't plugged in. Then it just refuses to charge. Has anyone seen this before? Hard reset the console with the joycons attached, then disconnect the joycons and press the resync buttons. The sleep feature fucks with the battery.

Iconoclasts is on sale so I picked it up. It’s a solid metroidvania! Found a few treasure chests I just barely can’t reach, so I hope back tracking isn’t a pain in the rear end in this game. One thing that stands out is the cheery colors don’t quite match the story, which seems dire/dark so far. Hope it stays interesting throughout. I am apparently 15% through after an hour and a half. I appreciate games that don’t overstay their welcome, so ~10 hours to beat sounds great.

The backtracking gets easier later on the machine planet has an insta-transit elevator you get to use after the electric woods Remember that collecting chests adds to completion, but so does actually building the upgrades and tweaks. I couldn't for the life of me figure out why I was sitting on 85% completion with everything explored and adding the remainder of tweaks did it. The game was made by one guy and it took him nearly 10 years. There are elements of the story and characters that changed throughout that time. I appreciate that it's not another drab grey/brownfest like most pixel indie titles gravitate to.

The internet tends to be full of initial knee jerk reactions that never get revisited when situations change.

It wasn't a super-seller hit like most expected it. Part of the blame is that both on steam and on PSN it got buried under a glut of other SOTN style games like celeste, chasm, hollow knight or owlboy. The PSN snafu was particularly grating because the shop wouldn't feature it, you'd have to dig to find it as it was also out on the Vita. A lot of people complained it wasn't exactly challenging or long, and that the item tweaks were largerly useless, while praising the graphic style and music. There's a harder mode and a challenge mode you unlock after beating it once. For being a SOTN-style game it is quite text-expository intensive, and many parts of the dialogue are hard to follow since the developer's first language is Swedish and he wrote the English in himself. On his twitter he also commented that finishing the game left him mentally drained and had to check himself in a clinic as he drove his mind into the dumpster. Although a sequel is tremendously unlikely at the moment I sure as well would love to see more because the mechanics could lend themselves for a kickass supermetroid-like.

The PSN snafu was particularly grating because the shop wouldn't feature it, you'd have to dig to find it as it was also out on the Vita. I mean, Iconoclasts kinda got buried in with the retro-styled adventure platformers mostly... because it IS another retro-styled action platformer, and not really a stand-out one. It's very much cut from the same cloth as Owlboy- a game who's development and craftsmanship are far more interesting then the actual game itself, which is a very slow, standard affair that gets in it's own way too often for it's own good, especially in terms of it's storytelling. The amazing thing is that the game exists at all, or is as pleasingly-wrapped as it is. None of that amazement extends to the gameplay- it is pretty standard upgrade-based platformer with some very light exploration and backtracking elements. We've gotten dozens of better designed, more interesting entries into the genre in the ten years the game was in development, and it really shows when putting it next to many of the standard-bearers for the adventure platformer, or even many of it's second tier entries. It IS a better game then Owlboy, though- in 2008 Iconoclasts really might have been something. It just took too long to show up in a genre that's suddenly gotten a ton of competition as the indie scene blew up.

i love the aesthetic of iconoclasts as like a late-era SNES game, and it controls really well. which i think puts it above a lot of similar games, even if it is not a great game

Owlboy is just so so bad. Its deflating in its badness because I still want to support the dude* but I feel bad that i paid for an across the board bad game. *if he has been revealed to be an awful person since then this no longer holds

Has it been mentioned anywhere yet how soon in FE three houses you pick a side? I assume the game’ll give you time with all the characters before making you choose

Thanks for the Mario Maker tips. I finished the base game of NSMBUD but not all the star road or Luigi levels (I found Luigi too slippery to control which makes it more frustrating than fun). Traded it in and getting SMM2 this week.

Iconoclasts was wonderful for about two hours, but eventually the backtracking during certain portions and failure to communicate during certain battles was just infuriating. The writing was also pretty awful, but that's secondary to the game itself being a chore. I wanted to love that game. For a one-person effort, it's absolutely incredible.

When you speak to a lord it gives you details on all the units in that house.

DQB2 is my GOTY so far  , it gets even better after you get through the first island. It didn't really bother me in DQB that you were basically starting over after each area/chapter, but having a permanent place you can build feels a lot better. It's really satisfying completing some of the builds/missions and seeing your progress over time.If I had to find something to complain about, occasionally it feels like the monsters in the wild spawn a little too fast. Sometimes I'm just trying to chill and explore and even if I clear out some monsters and they will keep respawning and harassing me. Just mildly annoying.

Is it true it constantly keeps the fan running? I kinda wanna get it but am split between the switch and PS4 version. Let's be honest though I'd probably only play the PS4 version for a few hours. DQB2 seems like the perfect portable game
