I got a switch!


Posted on 07/08/2018 at 07:16 AM | Filed Under Blogs

Battery can be a it dicey for portable. It's only around two hours, so on a flight or public transport it's not ideal. I mainly use the portability to play in bed though so I don't mind too much.

Still, for a portable console to have the power it does is pretty amazing.

Nah, I like a good jrpg. I'll probably be picking up VC4 as well. Didn't know about shining but I want it now. 

GameCube games would be great. I really want to play Baten kaitos, as I've never tried it. I just personally like being able to play metroid, Zelda, and jrpgs in bed honestly, which is why I want the vc back.

I have the demo but haven't tried it yet. Been too addicted to hollow knight. But should definitely give it a shot.

ive also been thinking I want to build legosat some point. Should get on that.

Pick ups. Being a kid.

Shining sounds pretty cool to me honestly, despite the apparent absence of inns haha. I'm a sucker for grid based dungeon explorers, and the art for it looks pretty darn nice.

 Maybe I should give Rage another shot. I really didn't like it back when I played it for some reason though.

You're a hell of a lot more organised than I am. Audio graphic novels sound weird to me though. A big part of what makes them is the art, so I'm interested in how they work.

I used to love the cardcaptors anime. Hows the manga?

Also, let us know what you think of Ys viii.

I already have darkest dungeons on pc, PS4, and vita. Don't think I could justify owning it on switch as well unfortunately xD

Don't worry, I once had a dream that I had one of the wheel skeletons from Dark Souls as my roommate, and it made making coffee in the morning incredibly difficult because I now had to dodgeroll the fucker constantly!

Have a blog

I didnt finish it and I stopped caring about it. The demo was a lot harder than the full release, and the main enemies seem A lot easier. Which is probably why it feels so weird. I rarely die outside of bosses unless I fall to my death, and then I die 30 times to a boss. I feel like mobs could stand to be a bit tougher or have more variety because you learn what they can do and there's very few enemies added after the first few hours. The bosses are such a a mixed bag. Some are really cool and it felt great learning how to conquer them, and others are so tedious that it's a chore to get through them.

Dark Souls 3 is a mixed bag for me, as it strips away a lot of what I loved about the original. There are so few surprises or moments of beauty. Theres nothing that matches the majesty of sif, or the fear inducing design of the gaping dragon. There's nothing that I stopped and Wentworth "oh shit that's cool". With Dark and Demons it felt like they threw out the video game rule book. It felt like the stuff your friends would make up inschool. There's bosses that can level you down, or kill a seemingly innocent Npc, or fight an actual player as the boss. There were secrets that could blot out the sun, save doomed friends, or open up entirely new areas. 

Dark Souls 3 feels safe. It feels like a studio just cashing in a cheque before their next big thing. That said, I still like it. Lorewise, its interesting if super fan servicey. I like a lot of the implication. And gameplay is technically the best the series has ever been.  But there's so little variety. Strength builds don't work as well because every enemy moves with the speed of a Bloodborne enemy now, so it basically forces you to roll a Dex build and two hand. Magic is useless because the lock on breaks if their not close enough to sneeze on, and the game is so linear that you really can't sequence break at all. 

Also, I haven't played Monster Hunter World yet. Just don't have the money now, and I'd rather spend it on the new god of war, just because I grew up with the series.
