I only played an hour and I was getting large fps drops that I gave up. Was not an enjoyable experience. Plus the start of the game is really slow. Was hoping for more loot to drop across the board. But it's just a crawl at the moment. I may try again today.
I bought a Nintendo switch to collect dust. At first I thought i bought it to play Nintendo games, but realistically I try not kid myself. I like knowing my switch is sitting in a draw not being used and collecting dust.
Nintendo games can be great. But a lot this gen just feel like rehash of older games but in HD. I'm curious on Botw 2 and the pokemon diamond remake.
I found 2 better than one. But I think it was mainly due to the level design. I found the living quarters (the area that looked like apartment buildings) very grim, cool and it reminded me of condemned / fear.
Outside of handheld I don't see the appeal. It doesn't improve performance on the TV.
I was thinking the other day, why hasn't Nintendo made a platform between 2 switches where one is the main station inside the Dock and the other is the Wii U tablet. I remember playing some multiplayer games on the Wii U and it was some of the most creative experiences I've had. Especially zombie U wave mode. Or in Nintendo lands the ghost hunt etc.
I haven't played it yet. Tried on Wii and couldn't get on with the controls. I disliked botw so waiting on this. But would love a remake of a link to the past and maybe bundled with a HD version of a link between worlds.
If my gf wouldn't get upset with me buying this. I'd be getting it day one. But I just don't game enough to justify another device. :/
I've had the switch for ages, and outside of a couple of Nintendo exclusives I don't use it. Only game I want to play is skyward sword remake and the remake of pokemon diamond. Outside of that I couldn't care for the exclusive games.
For my age I find price of games better on a PC, so you could spend 40bucks on a handful of great games on steam or 40 bucks on one Nintendo game that most likely started on the Wii U first.
If I didn't own a switch I would've been all over the deck. The switch collects dust. I just don't find much value in the games outside the few must haves. Gamepass has been my go to hop in and out this year.
The deck just seems a better value for money with the steam library being massive and much cheaper than Nintendo pricing.
I agree with you.
You could probably use a Web browser on the deck to run xbox game pass cloud as well. With OP comparing the two is silly and seems very much click bait topic.
Didn't like the climb 2 at all sadly.
Demeo is my favourite game of this year. I would like to try hitman vr but no psvr sadly.
I disagree.
Nintendo are a strong company who for some reason did FOMO with a limited run of a digital and physical print of an emulated game. If that doesn't say something, I worry..
Nintendo do try new things. I give them that, it's great when companies will take a risk. Nintendo were the guys who made sure quality games were the way forward back in the days. But because they were playing catch up after the Wii U, they crumpled and allowed every rubbish ...
Tbh, were we surprised that Nintendo would do this? It feels like they are somewhat out of touch with the consumer.
The Switch is a cool idea, but it's riddles with blindly running forward, with the low quality of games on the Eshop, and the way Nintendo hyped up "we have over 1000 games!" adverts, just to sound like they know what they were doing, and half the games were years old mobile games....
Now the rumours and hype behind a Switch Pro is out ...
I couldn't bring myself to play through ds3, the forced MTX killed the game for me that I just stopped a few hours in.
Ds1 and 2 are master pieces. But doubt 4 would get anywhere close to the originals without EA filling it with tat.
Shamone!
Sorry! I mean "let's a go!"
My friend was hyping Outriders up so hard it was sickening. So I tried the beta with him and within minutes I disliked the game. It looked alright graphically, but the game was to fast pace that it felt boring.
The game had this spawn kill of mobs as its main feature that it didn't feel like I was trying to have a tactic and just run and gun. It took away the graphics and felt really arcady.
That I didn't buy into retail.
Anthem was ...
There's been a demo out for a while with progress that carries over as well. It's easy to have over 100 hrs on this title with farming the demo over the last 1-2 months
Hopefully it doesn't have stupid hipster wannabes from the 2nd game. I was enjoying the 2nd one, till the cast of characters did my head in that I just couldn't bear listening to them anymore.
So they are going to stick with $60 games filled with MT? Guess it's better than $70 games filled with MT...
I'm playing it ATM with an i7 9th gen, 16gb ram, 2060 6gb hp omen laptop. Game runs around 70 FPS on ultra settings.
Only notice a big drop during cut scenes, wonder if they are capped.
If you're talking about console. I'm not sure. I played loads of origins on the ps4 pro and that ran well. So assuming this'll be fairly similar.
It feels like a slow alienation which made it feel sluggish for the first hour. Loot may pick up later on, but I've been given 2 guns and a grenade within the first 30-60mins.
Reviews say it's really slow to get into, a good 1-3 hours before it picks up.
