Ok, Skyrim has been full price 99.9% of it's time on Switch and that needs to end, it's literally criminal. people need to be jailed

Even if they were jailed, the Switch version’s HD Rumble for lockpicking would make escape trivially easy.

The thing is that there isn’t a better chip for them to upgrade to; the Tegra platform is entirely focused on automotive applications now. A hypothetical Switch successor will likely have to move to an entirely different SoC.

im pretty sure its Nintendo being super unreasonable about apps rather than Crunchyroll not trying to be on the Switch

If it were just Crunchyroll not on there that'd be one thing, but you can't tell me as popular as the Switch is that all the usual suspects aren't on the Switch by choice, rather than Nintendo being their usual selves

This would make more sense if Hulu weren’t on there. Why would they only allow that one?

That just really sounds like a ton of bullshit. I just want to play a single player game and pause like a normal person. It sounds like it just doesn't respect my time or the fact that the player may have life interruptions

I’ll probably pass on it as well for now. As the parent of a toddler, any game I can’t pause at a moment’s notice for an indefinite period of time is a no-go.

You went into a new area and assumed it was safe. You never go into a new area and assume it's safe.

So it is “you’re safe if there are no enemies around” or “you are never safe?” This thread says both.

Ok it just seems like people are saying the lack of pausing is fine because you can just leave the game running as long as you’re not in the middle of a fight, but also that’s not always the case and you can get hosed anyway. Seems like the kind of game that’s only suitable for people who can give it their undivided attention from the moment they turn it on to the moment they turn it off.

I think I was so put off by the idea initially that I just kind of stopped playing the game and never really found out if it gets better from there or is negated by some other aspect of the game.

As for the master sword thing, well, it’s the master sword. I’ll admit it is totally my hangup that I think Link should always have it available, or at least available more. But can you at least agree it’s kind of lovely that the master sword has been pushed down to being a rock smasher for most people primarily because the loss of its reliability due to the player never knowing when it’s going to break?

It just makes sense to me that once you get the master sword, you really should be able to just... play the whole game with it and change weapons just for fun or variety. Or at the very least, you should always have it available provided you don’t overuse it.

I wouldn’t even mind if it had much lower durability, but always reset once combat ended. gently caress, anything other than what we’ve got now, really.

Either way, I think the way the master sword breaks after X hits, no matter what, then you have to wait 10 minutes to use it again, is basically the worst possible way they could have implemented it.

its fine

What kind of games can you play on auto-pilot while listening to podcasts?

I like SteamWorld Dig and Mario Kart 8 for this. Especially Mario Kart, once you are familiar with the maps then you don't need to be pay too much attention. Also, the long waiting time between races online becomes a nice thing when you have a podcast to listen to.

My wife got really into Pokémon Go for a long time, but she didn't care for the 3DS games. She's interested in Let's Go, so I'm hoping playing that will make her want to play next year's "real" Pokémon game.

Adding to your list, there's Guacamelee! It's a very good metroidvania with a fun aesthetic. It's Dia de Muertos themed, so lots of skeletons and stuff, but bright and colorful. Also the main character is a luchador. Owns? Yes. It's on Wii U and Steam. I don't recall if it's on Switch yet. It should be!

The Switch version just dropped a couple of weeks ago, actually.

I can only hope that Nintendo’s recent aggressiveness in enforcing copyright on their old games means that they’re working on some kind of incredibly dope Switch service/storefront that offers an enormous variety of games from every Nintendo system of the ‘80s and ‘90s.
