Yeah, I have heard similar sentiments from others.

Umm… is this some joke or reference to something?

I have never played one, and have been thinking about picking this one. Some casual competition with kids and casual gaming guests.

That’s a tough one.

I usually pair an action game with some non-action one. Like a turn-based game, or a puzzle game. Or something cozy, like a farming game. Depends on what you have played and what you haven’t. Fire Emblem can be a good option. Order of the Sinking Star mentioned below is also a good option.

Open ended recommendation is pretty tough though, there are literally thousands of games that can be recommended 😀

I had forgotten about the game! Looking forward to it whenever it’s eventually released.

Hehe, that’s a long game. I’ll probably burn out if I stick with only a Warriors game until it is finished.

Switch Sports Resorts is coming out next week. And good luck for Majoras Mask!

I have only played the first one yet and really enjoyed it. It’s full price is down to $19.99, and its worth it even at that price, so pretty much a steal at $3.99.

It does go on sale often, so you can wait for next sale if you don’t want to play it right now, but as far as the price is concerned, go for it!

So, the structure of XCX is different from the other Xenoblade games. It’s not that it’s bad, it’s just different, and those who like that difference love the game.

I may have ranked it much higher if I had played the game after playing just one game in the series (how it was originally released), but after playing 3 games this just wasn’t what I wanted from a Xenoblade game. It’s possible if you play other XC games after this you won’t like them as much because they aren’t like XCX.

Still, even as my least favourite in the series, it’s still a very good game. My least favourite game in one of my favourite series still ranks above most other games for me.

That looks nice. For big RPGs like this I am willing to compromise on some visuals as long as it’s not too bad and performance is good. The benefits of handheld outweighs some drop in visual quality (for me).

I gave up on these large sudokus. I don’t like guessing and then backtracking on contradiction, and it seems you have to do that often, specially when you get those boss fights with completely empty boxes. I prefer the style of puzzles where you can solve it 100% by logic, without any guessing involved.

Have you tried Marvel Tokon? What’s your opinion on that?

Sorry about your Mahjong loss, good luck for your next match, hope you make a come back!

So, don’t leave me hanging, which is your favorite? :D

My favourite is XC3, followed by XC1, then XC2. XCX comes at last.

Heh, you can use the thread as you want, no issues either way.

As for FE, why not resell it? Or do you also collect games?

It’s been funny, you’re supposed to infiltrate the place as a slave but I’m the savior of the wastelands with all skills maxed out, so I’m just killing all the bad guys I’m supposed to be careful around!

Hehe, it’s funny when you get OP in the game when you should be weak according to the story.

I should be mostly done with 3-Star hunts too, but not sure yet.

Sorry to hear about Fortune’s Weave. I have a friend who has a similar luck with anything he preorders. No matter how good the game looks, if he preorders it the game will turn out bad. Now whenever we are looking forward to a game we tell him not to preorder it. He can probably weaponise his power and earn lots of money from publishers.

Xenoblade Chronicles is one my favourite series. I didn’t like XCX as much as others, but many people consider it their favourite Xenoblade, so looking forward to where you end up.

I have a USB dongle that lets me connect other controllers with Switch, PS4, PS3 etc. Haven’t tried it with Switch 2, but take a look if they work with Switch 2 you can just connect your Steam Controller. Might be a better option.

Don’t mind the “cheats”, for this weekly thread we don’t restrict to only Switch / Nintendo. Just share whatever you are playing.

That’s a fair point. If you want to make it difficult, at least have features that doesn’t make it frustrating. Let me “git gud” without wasting tons of my time.

Why is everyone making games so challenging? MIO looked great, and I love metroidvanias / side-scrollers but too many of these games have started to embrace the higher difficulties of Hollow Knight etc.

Yeah, that’s my understanding as well.

I don’t have that problem with Ace Attorney, but the idea sounds intriguing. Going to check it out.

So, don’t take this the wrong way, but if the video is bad and many points are wrong or straight up insane, why are you sharing it and increasing the view count? That will just mean people want this content more so they will keep making this. Isn’t this how these things work?

Sorry to hear about your PC, specially with how the prices are these days a new SSD is going to cost an arm and a leg.

Afterimage is on my wishlist, it looks good, hopefully the good outweighs the bad. Looking forward to your final review of the game.

BotW and TotK have similar main map, so my vote will be to add some distance between both games and get Ocarina of Time, but that’s just me, and everyone plays differently.
