angel opportunity posted:I'm hopefully going to have time to try the demo this weekend, but can someone explain to me why Splatoon 2 is so good? I've watched videos of the first one and it feels like an inordinate amount of time per match is spent just spamming paint onto the walls. I'm wanting to like the game and hoping it will just kind of click for me when I play it, but does it really have a lot of longevity as a multiplayer game where you can get really good at it or doing ranked mode etc? Yes.

DACK FAYDEN posted:Is Shakedown Hawaii... good? It looked like a Hotline Miami ripoff aesthetically but the gameplay looks like two or three other things combined in an interesting way so now I'm curious. It's a follow-up to Retro City Rampage, which itself borrows heavily from GTA 1 and 2. It was competently made but I found the meme-heavy writing grating. The dev said he's ditching the memes, for what it's worth, and I think that trailer looks pretty cool.

THE AWESOME GHOST posted:Does nobody there try to import Most (not all) Switch games aren't much more expensive in Japan. Amazon JP has Splatoon for the equivalent of about $49. I've actually been importing most of my games just for the hell of it, since even after shipping it's only a few dollars more. Edit: Just in case anyone goes looking to import from Amazon JP, they are really funky about shipping rates on preorders until a day or two before release, so watch out for that.

Solkanar512 posted:Hey folks, simple question here but I couldn't really find an answer. I want to buy my brother a game for his Switch, am I able to digitally gift games to him? He prefers the digital copies, so I'm only being partially lazy here. Some stores have download cards so you can buy him a digital code but still hand him a gift or whatever.

InFlames235 posted:Motion controls just aren't good. I'm lying on the couch with the Switch in my hand and it's just not lining up properly and it's awkward turning and all that other stuff. No bueno. Wish they had more sensitivity options for no motion. Kinda lame that they don't. Please splat with proper posture.

enojy posted:I agree with that dude 100% but I hate to say it's just not going to happen (dedicated servers for Splatoon 2.) Yeah. For what it's worth I don't find it that bad in practice. The high risk of double splatting in head-to-head fighting feels intended and I haven't been splatted around a corner yet. Once a paid subscription (no matter how cheap) is part of the equation I might have higher standards.

Mister Facetious posted:Wait for Dragon Quest Builders 1/2. It has actual objectives and looks cute. Just to expand on this, you have specific quests (build a place where your townspeople can cook, build a gate, craft a certain medicine, kill this monster) and even get basic blueprints for buildings to build which you can then greatly modify. It still involves exploration and digging and discovering crafting recipes, and at any point you still have the freedom to build whatever you want. Builders 1 was really good. I'd also recommend Terraria once that comes out. It's 2D and has a looser quest structure (more like a suggested progression) but I found those kind of goals helped nudge me to building more creatively and kept me from losing interest. Note: I actually haven't played Minecraft and I understand it eventually added a loose quest system, but I haven't heard a lot of praise over the addition.

The demo for Dragon Quest Heroes had an absolutely horrendous framerate. I hope they can do a better job on the Switch in the future because I want me some more Hyrule Warriors.

It's just Some Guy Who Works For USPS Or UPS who busted up your poo poo, and you can and should complain to them, but being mad at Amazon about it is like being mad at your restaurant server for undercooking your steak.

Quest For Glory II posted:It seems like the actual reason rhythm heaven is in trouble is because one of the lead people has had to semi-retire because of throat cancer, but that still doesn't make the series dead, obviously. Lot of people involved in those games. I would say that tsunku is like THE lead person. He essentially created the series and wrote most of the music. You're right that that doesn't mean the series is dead, but my hopes for a new game in the series just went way down.
