man nurse posted:The challenge in Yoshi primarily comes from trying to 100% the levels, all flowers/red coins, finishing with full health, that kind of stuff. If that appeals to you, it’s solid. I wouldn’t recommend doing this for Crafted World. It’s really miserable and a grind to 100%.

So I'm about at the end of the "normal story" of DQ11, I'm aware that there's a post game story, but I've also heard the difficulty ratchets up a bit. I don't really feel like grinding my rear end off to do this post game stuff, am I going to have to? My characters are all 46-48 and I'm in the middle of the last dungeon. One of the things I've enjoyed about the game is that I haven't had to grind out levels, just made sure to fight some monsters along the way to any given thing and it's worked out fine. If I'm gonna have to juice a bunch of levels for the post-game I may just skip it.

The best way to think of it is like Chrono Trigger's endgame. You've got a bunch of nominally optional side quests and things to do that develop more of the story and characters and coincidentally give you the last bunch of levels you'd need for the finale.

tuo posted:Yeah, I though the same. The game is super polished (typical Nintendo first party game quality) in the first two thirds, but I encountered quite a few small "glitches" at the end. Nothing game breaking, but for example broken animations/rigging during cutscenes (Luigi going through animations while his head was still in the "Gooigi is activated" sleep mode), bosses who suddenly stopped their talking animation, and a lot of funny stuff going on when you have to go back to b2 to save toad. Hah! I missed out on having any funny bugs during a cinematic. Once though the physics went wack in an area and it sounded 100% like the hotel was making some awesome jungle beat so I was looking all over trying to find a secret room of ghosts who were making the music...but alas it ended up being some object caught banging around in geometry. Any sour feelings I have of the game really come after I 100%ed the game and can get jaded about it now in hindsight. Still an absolute gem.

John Wick of Dogs posted:What co-op games are really good to play with two switches in the same house? This is an extremely embarrassing response, but Fortnite could actually be really fun. If you play Duos (teams of 2) with someone in the same house you could probably win a ton of games pretty easily. For all of its faults, Fortnite actually has amazing controller options and lets you fine-tune gyro aiming. I spent a long time adjusting the gyro until it felt perfect, and now I'm winning easily 1/4 of the games I join and overall having lots of fun, all without spending a cent (nor will I ever spend a cent on this). I'm pretty sure the vast majority of the playerbase doesn't use gyro aiming at all, and it gives you an absurd advantage.

Chrono Trigger is really the best JRPG still. I'd love to get it on Switch. I treasure my DS cartridge so much. Tender Bender posted:I agree that the Animal Crossing real-time thing can be a pain, but it's also like the defining feature of the game? If you just want to live short days out of sync with reality there are a lot of other games that are more interesting imo. Is there any with equally charming and annoying animal neighbors who give you music as you stuff all the other wildlife into a museum? Mr Snips posted:I've enjoyed all the animal crossing games I've played but the biggest flaw is how the real time cycle ends up burning me out on the game far quicker than anything else, because at some point it becomes a chore having to play it every day to prevent my favourite villagers from loving off forever I am glad that my sentiment resonated with people. I felt like the only one for a bit. Bust Rodd posted:Animal Crossing is popular because it’s the only way anyone below the age of 35 will ever experience what it’s like to climb out of debt

In DQ11 learn about the power that makes enemies into metal slimes and the one that multiples your experience. You can grind to 99 in a couple hours doing this when you're in the 60s/70s, but you don't need to. Just rotate the people you need pepped up out naturally and do the combo whenever everyone happens to be pepped up.

Has anyone played EarthNight? I like the visual style a lot but I worry that it will be a little too Sonic-y for my tastes. Stylish but perhaps not substantive.

My brother is visiting from Montana. He’s in forestry, so he’s been having a blast with Mudrunner. He rolled his picker and said “Oh crap, my boss is going to be pissed” It’s a good game. Like the Dark Souls of logging.

Heath posted:Has anyone played EarthNight? I like the visual style a lot but I worry that it will be a little too Sonic-y for my tastes. Stylish but perhaps not substantive. I have it, and enjoy playing it! However, I think it objectively leans more to the "stylish" end of the scale, it is ultimately still an auto runner, and falls prey to the unavoidable problems of that genre. Missing a jump can leave you in the lower, less interesting rungs of a level, and failing to grab something like a laser-reflecting shield power-up can leave you eating poo poo in the subsequent stretch of laser spewing fat guys. The controls are good, and you have enough jump and air control options that mistakes feel like your own, but the level design can get a bit too hairy and it can all feel a little luck based, especially in the final, hardest levels. On the good side, the visuals are never not appealing, and the soundtrack is really good. The individual levels are short and pithy, and the the structure of a run allowing you to choose which kind of dragons you want to land on and kill for their crafting components is satisfying enough that I keep coming back to play more. EarthNight is the only auto runner I've ever played that I would actually recommend to anyone, but it's definitely of a lighter, flashier arcade style feel. Buy it full price if you're really into twitch platforming, or if you really love the game's visual presentation. Otherwise, I'm sure I'll be mentioning it in this thread again if I ever see it in a sale someday.

There's platforming in it but you can use the thread between the two players to climb to them or just ride them for the trickier parts. Everything has been nice music and underground/garden scapes.

All my time is going towards Breath of the Wild now lol 🙃 I'm not complaining, though. I'm enjoying it! It's hard as gently caress, though. I feel like I need to find/complete all the shrines I can to get enough health/stamina for some of these fights.

I poke into the multiplayer mode sometimes and it half often seems like theres some game going. attach a wireless usb keyboard to the switch so that typing isn't a pain in the rear end and its can prove to be an alright thing! eg it ends up usually being a few people mutually slowly satisfyingly slogging through things to some objective but  its proved OK
