There's always some fool around who hasn't played Hyrule Warriors and therefore doesn't know any better, so I wanted to make sure somebody wasn't just skipping right to the memes.

Literally the first decision Byleth makes is if they're male or female, therefore

Female Byleth's outfit is kinda fanservicey, but at least they're not boring looking like the male one.

Got my Switch Lite this afternoon and spent several hours playing Link's Awakening. Liking both the system and LA so far. My only real gripe is that it's taking me a while to get adjusted to the controls, but that's not the game's fault, that's just me getting a new system with a different control scheme than my PS4 which I'm super used to. The framerate thing hasn't bothered me at all, honestly

I can see it. When I was a kid Link's Awakening was the first Zelda game I got into. And after beating it I borrowed Link to the Past from a friend and thought "Why is the world so big and empty?" and stopped playing it. Link's Awakening's structure is super enjoyable. The overworld feel like a large and dense jigsaw puzzle that you had to navigate and figure out, with each powerup affecting your relationship with the world, until you progress enough that the pieces come together more and more rapidly until everything falls into place and you solve the game. And the other Zelda games just aren't structured in that sort of way. edit: When I approach the end of AW, there's a really nice feeling of "finality" to it that I rarely get from video games. It's not a world who's ending I've reached, it's a world that I now fully grasp and move beyond. And uh, I really like when that happens. Just felt like mentioning that aspect.

I'm interesting in checking out ai somnium files, but i haven't played any of Akira Okadas other games (but they have been on my steam wishlist for a while). What other games are similar that i might have played? The only other "visual novel" style game that i've played is Phoenix Wright, which i loving love.

Most of the moment to moment gameplay actually resembles Phoenix Wright, to be honest. The investigation parts could have come right out of the series and no one would have batted an eye. There are a small handful of sections that basically work like the courtroom segments (someone gives a statement, you have to tell which piece(s) of evidence you have to prove they're lying) but they're short and have no real fail state. And then the dream sequences are puzzle rooms where you have to work out how to clear a sequence of "locks" based on interactions in the room. If you liked PW you'd probably enjoy AI a lot, to be honest.

it’s a false dichotomy. link’s awakening is a reflection of link to the past and is therefore an extension of it

BrainDance posted:Dammit This isn't gonna matter to anyone but me, but the Hong Kong edition has English and Japanese too. No language select screen but it just defaulted to English, so I guess it goes by system language or something. Pretty pumped about not having to buy it again. The HK edition is like $50 and my internet is terrible so it'd be another day of waiting before I'd get to play it otherwise.

it just seems so obvious to me at this point in my life that Link's Awakening is better than ALTTP. it was designed by crazy geniuses

Zelda direct sequels (except for Phantom Hourglass) tend to be the best Zeldas so I'm really looking forward to BOTW 2.

I finally realized what it is about the new Link's Awakening's soundtrack that bugs me so much, the live instruments sound so out of place and a lot of the new soundtrack just sounds so subdued relative to the original soundtrack, and I wish the whole game leaned more into the electronic sound https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8C_GTxMsKlk like this is great and evokes a ton of the original game's feel, but it would be a lot better without the oboe coming in

thats why its good imo. but also they leaned on the digital sounds the most for that track which i think was also an effective choice

I really like the Mabe Village theme once the other instruments take over but with the very compact overworld design I'm hearing that song for maybe twenty seconds each time.
