Good luck on getting a Switch to those that did not preorder. VideoGames posted:I would definitely like to play Horizon at some point. But the Switch will take up my gaming money for a while. I honestly did not think there was enough coming out for the Switch this year for that to be the case.

VideoGames posted:Not that I will be buying lots of games, more than it's a decent chunk out of my yearly gaming budget. Oh okay. Thanks for clarifying. It feels weird that I'm getting a Switch because I will pretty much play Zelda for three days and then ignore it for at least the next few weeks because Nier takes major priority (it being my most anticipated games) and if playing that goes long it might go right into my next most anticipated game's (P5) release so I might be spending all this money on this thing I'm not actually gonna get around to using all that much.

Horizon looks really cool but I likely won't get to it until it's down to like $20

The trick is ignoring the simple it's good/it's bad opinions and actually reading what people have to say to get a sense of what the game will be like and even ask question to clarify some things.

IGN are dumb but at least some of the criticisms they bring up seem legit. Like they say it isn't awful but for a home console it's underpowered and for a portable it has poo poo battery life and is kinda bulky. None of that seems unreasonable to say.

VideoGames posted:I feel like the underpowered complaint only comes into play if we think of the way triple AAA games need all that processing power. The WiiU wasn't matched at all with the PS4 and Xbone (and pretty much a bit weaker than the 360 and the PS3) but it was about utilising that hardware appropriately. Even though there was a real dearth of third party games, Nintendo still released a huge library of real quality exclusive games that worked for its console. Tropical Freeze looked beautiful, Maro Kart 8 was rich as all heck and Mario 3D World is wonderful. The problem is this is the thing that has been giving Nintendo for awhile. the limitation is fine for Nintendo but in the end will likely lead to another generation of Nintendo console where there is nothing for the console but the first party games. It's another generation where the Nintendo console is something they have to work around rather than something they can include. It's fine for people like us that can just have the Nintendo console supplement what else we have but that's also the type of thing Nintendo have been trying to break free from and I just can't see happening with this.

Well only time will tell. With the amount of hype it's getting it's extremely likely this launch is going to be massive so no matter what this is going to be an initial success. I've just been in a naturally skeptical of Nintendo state for awhile now and very very little of what I'm seeing in the Switch really says this is gonna be the thing they finally get over problems they've been having since the N64 But whatever, the most important question is should I buy a 128gb microsd card for this thing, or spend the extra money for 200gb?

Dr Cheeto posted:The price of those cards is only gonna go down, why not wait until you find yourself bumping against the limits of the meagre onboard memory? I don't think it's gonna go down enough while waiting for that. One legit thing the IGN review brought up was that one of the launch games (at least in Japan) is bigger than the internal memory of the whole thing. The price for the these things tends to fluctuate these days more than really change all that much. I'm just the type that would rather just have the space now rather than have it come up when something I want to play comes out just to find I now have to wait two days to ship a card.

Zelda had absurdly high scores on metacritic right now. the minigame collection? Not so much and looks like Bomberman is just sorta meh or at least not really worth the asking price

Yeah, I don't think reviewers have really forgotten how much Nintendo fanboys flipped over that (honestly accurate) 8.8. All the reviews need to be taken with a heap of salt but even taking that in consideration they are incredibly high with some calling it the best game ever made

 Just got a platinum trophy, though it feels sort of empty because it was a really easy platinum, though at least I'm not one of those people that bought the game just because it was an easy plat.

Wamdoodle posted:Which game? As long as you had fun it doesn't matter The Bunker. I bought it this week because it was on sale and I have a fondness for FMV games. It was alright. Nothing amazing but I don't feel ripped off either. Probably the quickest I've gone from buying a game to platting it.

Man, it'd gonna be weird to start up Zelda and then put it to the side but even if it is exactly as good as all the hype says it is, Nier 2 takes priority. Also, Best Buy is saying my Switch order is ready for Pickup, this is probably just an error but I will call to make sure.

Help Im Alive posted:They wanted to give people an alternative to reinhardt which is a good idea imo and I like her design Pretty much and her gravity thing seems more to pull people than make them immobile. It appears to be more for getting people out of hiding than making them helpless. Like with all characters added to the game, it's gonna unbalance things for a bit but it probably won't be too bad. People freaked out thinking Sombra was gonna be broken but once she was there she was fine. With Orisa you have to realize that she is a HUGE target and her shield cannot be brought with her. She can buff herself for reduced damage but she seems to not be built to deal damage in a very dynamic fashion.

I really love the Everybody's Gone To the Rapture theme but you could only get that for preordering the game. Right now there's a free Indivisible theme that I think it's quite nice if you're looking for something.

It's kind of funny to hear the tablet does nothing in the Wii U version of Zelda because it was so clearly made to integrate that thing heavily, which they must have completely stripped out when they made it a Switch launch title.

MinibarMatchman posted:it sounds like playing on the gamepad scales it back to 720 and thus improves performance? at least that's how it sounds with the Switch version going from the TV to the off-TV gameplay. I meant more that in game the first item you get is literally a magic tablet and a ton of stuff revolves around it.

I honestly did not expect Horizon to be as goon praised as it's been to the degree where it's at least Benning competed not unfavorably to the new Zelda. That does make me happy because I did think it looked cool, I just have to much on plate right now. I do really look forward to getting to it though.

One of the most baffling things about Polanski, is that Repulsion might be one of the best films about the horror of rape ever made. Like he made a movie that shows he fully understands how awful rape is and what the mere possibility of it happening does to women, yet that didn't prevent him from reading a 13 year old girl. In Training posted:You're allowed to be a sex criminal as long as you're also Jewish in the film world. Please don't post poo poo like this even if you're trying to be ironic, tia

God damnit, Nier 2 is already amazing as well as horribly depressing. Glad I turned it down to normal though because I was not beating that opening level especially with only one life and having to start from the very beginning every time

Sakurazuka posted:Guitar Hero got pretty meh after Harmonics stopped making them. Harmonic spent a ton of effort making sure that the way you played the songs was at least similar to if you were playing a real guitar and they just generally tried to make it so the way their games felt was fair and had a relatively to the actual don't. The games without them just saw notes as button s and had no sense of anything other than having a button press when a sound was supposed to happen. It was night and day really.
