Developer Polytron has released a patch that was meant to fix various issues with its XBLA game Fez. However, installing the patch has left many gamers with an even more serious issue.
Random Nintendo shares Indie World highlights and impressions of Fez, There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension, and Aerial_Knight's Never Yield. Plus, The Great Ace Attorney, Microsoft's Switch on a shelf, and more.
With its unique visuals, wonderful soundtrack, and addicting gameplay, FEZ is as much fun to play today as it was nine years ago. Jes from Gaming Respawn reviews.
WTMG's Leo Faria: "In short, Fez is as good now as it has always been. The reason I call this version the best way to experience this indie game is mostly due to the perfect combination of the Switch’s portability and its screen being much larger than the Vita’s. This is easily one of the best indies ever made, and one of the most important games of the past decade. Even though a lot of younger players only know it due to its troubled development cycle and some post-launch controversies, Switch owners should definitely pick this game up. This gem took an eternity to arrive on the system, but it feels right at home on it."
Wow! Glad I 100%ed the game before they "fixed" it!
More and more games in this generation have a day one patch or you just can't play them. How are Microsoft and Sony letting these games come out broken? If you manufacture 1 million copies of a game then the online servers should be required to host 1 million players. If your game doesn't work on day one then there should be fines and or penalties. The ESRB is there to inform parents of the content and give it a rating. We need something like this against greedy publishers trying to recoup their investment by releasing broken games.
I don't ever remember this stuff hapening last gen, so much for the future...
