I've unlocked everything in Risk of Rain and don't want to spend the $40 to buy Binding of Isaac. What are some other good roguelike/lites for the Switch? I've seen a couple others but I'm not sure if they're work getting or not

Ciaphas posted:my god i should have asked google instead of people on the internet 2d sidescroller game where you pick a guy and murder your way through thousands of things while collecting random items that help you murder things faster before you fight the final boss and win. You unlock new things into the item pool for completing achievements I was gonna pick up BoI because it's similar although a twinstick shooter but lol at $40

100YrsofAttitude posted:You really should get Nuclear Throne. It's super fun and quick to play and offers a lot of depth for what seems seemingly little. Plus it's 12 bucks. You can't go wrong. I'm either missing something or this game is just ridiculously hard because I've made it past 2-1 maybe twice out of 30 attempts

TheMadMilkman posted:Turn off the HUD. It will force you to pay attention to the game world. I would argue do the opposite because the Gameworld if unnecessarily huge and while pretty it's barren as gently caress. I only had fun once I started skipping every trash fight because weapon durability is a cancer and you'd enter combat with nice things and leave with ten wooden clubs Rolo posted:Don’t worry about weapon durability. Ever. You’ll be fine, the game throws weapons at you like ammo in a shooter. It sure does throw wooden clubs at you constantly

Wamdoodle posted:That's when you throw the wooden club back But I went into combat with a flaming claymore! Honestly though BotW was probably my least favorite Zelda game. I appreciate that it did something different but if it didn't have the Zelda name attached all the many many systems that were poo poo wouldn't have been forgiven

CharlestheHammer posted:Name recognition is a thing, or are you gonna pretend that isn’t real This. I tried cooking things once but man was it rad having to select my ingredients from a clunky menu, put them in a pot, wait for it to cook, and then repeat a second time to make a second thing. The weapon durability is just garbage all over Sure there's hundreds of shrines but how many unique ones? Korok seeds Rain You get all your abilities in the first hour and that's it you're done which makes exploring the giant world less fun. Oh boy you climbed this giant mountain and now you get a flaming sword that's going to break the first time you run into a pack of trash. Edit: the DLC added in better ways to travel because even Nintendo realized the game world sucked. And this is just me but stripping all WiiU tablet support out of the game when Link literally has a WiiU tablet in his hand was the dumbest decision.

American McGay posted:You can immediately tell if someone's opinion of BOTW sucks by how quickly they include rain in their list of complaints. Even ignoring the rain complaint are you still trying to tell me that the cooking system is cool, good and well thought out? That the lack of added tools to your kit after the first hour is wonderful? Weapon durability where the neat flaming claymore you found getting replaced by spikes clubs or rusty metal is a good trade? I mean christ, the goddamn mastersword, ultimate slayer of all evil, loving breaks

Yaws posted:I love the Zelda series and while I haven't played BOTW yet this thread has me a bit hesitant to buy it. Ultimately it was an enjoyable game that I ended up putting a ton of time into and finished. I have no interest in buying the DLC and will probably never play it again but it was an okay enough game. Meanwhile I have multiple friends that fell in love with it and rate it as one of their favorite Zelda games. Different strokes for different folks. It's just people get so goddamn defensive when you point out the thing has terrible systems and while the world is incredibly massive it's mostly copy/pasted shrines, korok seeds, and goblin camps that aren't worth the resource investment to clear. I had the most fun when I just ran past anything resembling fighting to check out random bits. Once I climbed all the towers and could see the whole map the game became a lot less entertaining.

romanowski posted:gawrsh I wonder why people get defensive of a game they like when you accuse them of liking it for fraudulent reasons Nah all you have to do is say "I didn't like BotW" and you can derail entire threads. See: the dragging games down thread. People get so mad if you say it's not a great game and list why you feel that way

Speaking of lovely controllers. Why do my joycons randomly disconnect if I play the system docked? I'll be playing a game and all of a sudden one just stops to reset itself.

Caffeinated Jerkoff posted:You're either very far away from the Switch, or there's interference from other devices/things in between the Switch and you. I had this issue intermittently when I had my Switch behind my TV About 4 or 5 feet away? It's beside the tv but looking at the list of what could gently caress with a Joycon it can be devices using WiFi (like everything on the tv stand), being too close to a router, aquariums, TV's, cell phones and tablets.

A FUCKIN CANARY!! posted:Gyro aiming is the best thing to happen to actually being able to aim in a console game ever, but I still think it would be even better to have a controller with a little trackball in it like they did with the Apple Pippin. Out the bottom with a little hook to make it so it looks like it's coming out the top?

American McGay posted:Browsing the eShop online and I'm just now realizing that there are over 100 ACA NEOGEO ports available for the Switch, every single one of which is $8. I can't help but think how much money Nintendo is leaving on the table by not having any sort of virtual console presence on this thing. Lol at paying for Super Mario Bros 1 in 2019 but I would slam  down for Super Metroid again in a heartbeat.

To be fair people are showing they're more than willing to spend full price for 5+ year old games just because it's on the Switch so why make it cheap?

Other than occasionally freezing it's pretty rad. That said the PS4 is The Perfect Console so still not sure why we're talking about it in the Switch thread.
