Again a very likpatous story
I've said it before and I'll say it again.

KIrby: has fishing, wears a cute fishing hat
Eldin Ring: no fishing, no cute fishing hats

It's obvious that Eldin Ring is garbage and Kirby rules.

Is The Open World Kirby Game Nintendo’s Answer To ELDEN RING?

It’s not open world, it’s more like Mario 3D World only with Kirby (and apparently a central hub of some kind that you visit in between levels)

One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."

I’ve done a bit of co-op with my girlfriend. The central hub is a Waddle Dee village and you unlock more buildings and side game stuff by rescuing Waddle Dees from levels by accomplishing hidden tasks.

We’re only a few hours in but the game is a joy to play. Looks great, runs great, all the power ups are cool and the levels are really fun to explore and poke around looking for secrets. Game is extremely good.

There aren't any relationship dynamics outside of the main character's convictions with abstract ideals. Visual Novel might be a bit of a sloppy comparison since nobody called FFT a Visual Novel even though it had cutscenes between missions.

It's an SRPG with more-than-average cutscenes. Kinda frontloaded. With a few investigation sections that range from linear to actually kinda engaging.

I'd say it has less than Let Us Cling Together, which started the entire genre

Ty for your service pirate poster dude, not going to download anything myself because that sounds more annoying than spending 60 bux but the preview details are much appreciated

The detailed breakdowns on what to expect from Arceus legends were pretty dope too, much more useful than the professional reviews

My disdain for you all knows no bounds.
Also the game has unlocked in Japan and Australia, so there's not like there's a day 1 patch that would add stability or something out. These impressions would be accurate, unlike with say 3D All Stars and such, where yes the game did have problems, but the stability was way worse for earlier people than on launch day.

I don’t think so. It’s not terrible but it’s super generic. Only play it if you’ve run out of everything else you’re interested in.

Due to Elden Ring fever I’ve been replaying Dark Souls 1 on Switch and having a lot of fun. I think a lot of others are having the same idea since I’m constantly hearing the first bell be rung. I just rang the perish bell myself and will come back to the game after I’ve done with Kirby.

Do you like combat and obstacle courses? Do you like collecting poo poo to raise stats/abilities?

Do you like Waldorf and Statler?

If you can get past the rocky framerate of the demo or you have a hackable Switch you can run overclocked, it might be worth $15.
