That said, I liked the game and wouldn't mind a sequel. It's actually a bit odd that the big ol' soda/cereal powers that be haven't revived their old mascots and games to cash in on the retro/nostalgia trends.

Reading the Italian review and honestly wondering if they have played other Pokemon's.quote:useless interludes that seem to be placed there . just to act as filler and supporting actors that you would like to get rid of after a second Does this not represent at least modern Pokemon games? quote:Whatever the message a story is intended to cover, this must transpire from the narrative, without external interventions that continually remind the user why he is living it. Especially here, Pokémon Legends: Arceus fails because it's the kind of writing that shows you a poké ball and then tells you "see, this is a poké ball." quote:Over and over, the game forces us to do the same actions even when we don't want to, without the storyline or side missions coming to our rescue Again, are we sure they've played a Pokemon game?

Yeah, the reviews for this one seemed pretty inflated across the board.... I'm more interested in user reviews. People who have played the game are saying it's a fun fresh take but it's definitely rough around the edges, 7.5 to an 8 tier rather than 9s and 10s across the board. Still a good game but I'm skeptical about how many professional reviews seem to say hey, it's different without emphasizing whether different is good or not Goon impressions a few weeks after launch are also usually really solid for me. I don'tn't trust professional reviews when it comes to anything Nintendo though

Actually looking at metacritic a lot more '80s and lower are starting to roll in for Arceus, so maybe it was just a matter of letting the dust settle. A lot of smaller outlets I've never heard of, but there's a few big boys there who are like. Yeah, this is an 80 at best. Fwiw I consider an 8/10 game very good but like c'mon 9s or 10s are for bloodbornes and resident evil 4s and Mario Odysseys Either way goon impressions are my primary source, I'm semi interested in picking it up because a lot of my friends will likely grab it. But they also spend a lot of time in pokémon unite which I actively loathe, don't want to encourage the idea that I'm down to play that too! One of them already asked me hey, if you think this is fun, would you play League of Legends with me? I became instantly angry!!

Butterfly Valley posted:I bought a Quest 2 almost entirely to play Squadrons in VR, because my inner 10 year old would kill himself in shame if he knew adult me had the option to disappear into a very realistic virtual reality simulation of Star Wars space battles and hadn't pursued it. I have one as well, everyone should also own Resident Evil 4 for it. It’s too bad my crippling anxiety prevents me from playing VR for any meaningful time. I have so many games I own on it that I feel like I would like but once I strap the headset on I feel like I’m being watched or something. It’s weird. Getting a bit drunk and playing was the only way I could stomach it. Since I stopped drinking I don’t think I’ve used it once.

John Wick of Dogs posted:Italians broadcast Tifa having sex in front of the Italian Senate and it was broadcast on their national tv, so I regret to inform you Italians are good now. I'm not surprised Mario is playing the field now that Peach has decided to enjoy the single life, but getting caught in that sex tape is still gonna hurt his image in the short term.

Cool Spot is my go-to example for how the Genesis sometimes had better soundtracks for games than the SNES, since the Genesis version's music is fantastic and the SNES version's is much worse. I can't get over Luigi being horrified as he reads about Hitler and WWII.

I'm all for supporting monster catching games getting innovative but I'm not super feeling this one, I'll tell my friends I'm busy with Elden Ring or something At least SMTV owns, just got to the final open world area and I'm loving the plot/current antagonist(s) KingSlime fucked around with this message at 23:00 on Jan 27, 2022 |
