Yeah I just saw it for the first time and it was real solid. I was just wandering around town when I saw some weird shadows shimmering about and the background had a weird hue so I naturally looked up and saw it rolling on it and it was a real natural emergent feeling experience. Hilarious if it was also a clever way to handle technical limitations.

Soricidus posted:You don’t need to carry any of those around. You can cut trees down with any sharp edged weapon, and the game is generous at handing out leaves and torches wherever they’d be particularly useful. You don’t need to sure but it feels nice to have them and a needlessly limiting choice to have you choose between this or that. Like I can’t speak enough about how much I’m enjoying the game so far it’s just one mechanic that feels bad and goes against the real “do what you want” vibe the game has going.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:I get that, more often than not, an indie game priced down to pennies from an already low original price is usually not so great, but goddamn, I was really hoping Preventative Strike would've been some sort of spiritual sequel or tribute to the Strike series. I too lost a penny thinking the same thing. RIP Strike series.

It's been forever since I played, so maybe I was? I have memories of getting anxious whenever they popped up because they'd make me stop whatever I was doing, or hosed me over if I was in the middle of a meticulously planned encounter.

I've been having this problem with Celeste where if I move with the left thumbstick I often gently caress my dashes up because I won't be pointing in exactly the right direction (like it'll be a diagonal dash when I need a horizontal one), but if I use the directional buttons instead it's very hard to do anything diagonal. What do most people use?

Papercut posted:What's the easiest way to do this? Or should I just buy a controller that has it? The easiest way is to buy the Hori one. You can also buy replacement shells and a toolkit for about 40 bucks on Amazon if you want to go whole hog on the modding front (I made my Switch transparent atomic purple and it rules.) If you play on the TV an SN30 Pro controller is great, although the d-pad isn't quite as precise as the Joycon is and is a bit of a pain to set up, but I use it as my main controller.

my SF30 pro dpad likes to go up left when i hit straight up; i have to be careful to press the upper right side of the arm to get straight up. for something like celeste, I’d use the joycon dpad over it.

You can also get the 8bitdo usb receiver and use an xb1 or ds4 controller with your switch.

The Switch pro DPad seems like it sucks too. In Lumines and Tetris it seems to drop blocks all the time.

Kiranamos posted:Is that right? The dpad isn’t as good as the joycon? That seems strange to me. Also why is it a pain to set up? You have to update firmware once you get it and it tends to not play nicely with other controllers. Once you get it there it's hands down the best option. It's worth noting I have a previous revision of the SN30 that looks identical to a SNES controller save the thumb sticks and extra shoulders, so YMMV. But the d-pad is just a bit less precise than the Joycons' independent UDLR buttons. Often when you hit up it will interpret it as up right or up left. Not all the time, but enough that I notice it on games that require perfect precision like Celeste. Supposedly you can mod them with those little circular paper rings for binders to keep pages from tearing, but I haven't done that. The only reason I say the Joycon is better is because the modded one I use is literally just a plastic pad laid on top of the four-button set up that the Joycon has, so it's shallow but also clicky so you get the nice feedback. It's pretty similar to the New 2DS' pad, if you've used one of those.

Okay, Streets of Rogue is pretty fun now that I know generally what's going on. I was confused at first because I didn't realize there's unrelated npcs milling about like a Deus Ex level and wasn't sure who would aggro and when but I'm slowly getting the hang of it. It didn't help that the first character is slum dweller, I kept trying to play with that class until trying Soldier and that went much better. I am curious to see how much depth there is, it does kind of feel like outside of new traits and items there's not much to the game that you don't see in the first few levels. I guess running with all the different characters will give it some longevity too though.

Playing handheld only, at launch Overwatch did slow down a lot when multiple ults were used at the same time. But I haven't noticed it anymore, so they apparently managed to improve the performance.
