I'm wrapping up Yakuza: Like a Dragon. I really should have been done with it by now, but I let myself get pulled into the business side game. So really, my weekend was was half a dozen hours of me trying to run a Japanese conglomerate.
Oh, and I also streamed Yoshi's Story for 90 minutes today. It never ceases to amaze me how many people will pop in and watch these older Nintendo games. The reason I ended up playing that was the Snoopy game that I ordered from. GameStop ended up coming with scratches and I was unable to play it. So now I have to go to the hassle of returning it. Joy...
Larian CEO says Baldur’s Gate 3 won’t be coming to Nintendo Switch 2
In a Reddit AMA held on Friday, Larian CEO Swen Vincke was asked if Baldur’s Gate 3 will ever come to Switch 2, and if it’s even technically possible, considering the size of the RPG.
Vincke indicated that any future port was down to Baldur’s Gate 3 and Dungeons & Dragons owner Wizards of the Coast, which it has since parted company with for its next big game, Divinity.
“We would have loved to [bring Baldur’s Gate 3 to Nintendo Switch 2], but it wasn’t our decision to make,” he wrote.
While Vincke’s comments don’t rule out Wizards of the Coast putting out its own Baldur’s Gate 3 Switch 2 port, this reportedly isn’t happening. According to noted insider, NateTheHate, as of late last year, a Nintendo version isn’t in the works.
“While Larian would love to bring Baldur’s Gate 3 to the Switch 2… their relationship with Hasbro/Wizards of the Coast is not healthy,” they wrote.
In the same Reddit AMA on Friday, Larian’s CEO said it would stop using generative AI to create concept art in the process of writing Divinity, following criticism of earlier confirmation that it was using the technology.
I picked up Hades about 6 months ago. I think I put in 90 hours into it, and honestly I could have easily played another 20. Easily one of the best games I've played in years.
So I played a few Panic button ports on switch, 4 in total. I always thought Wolfenstein 2 looks like some super blurry desaturated flat crap.
Since I've been messing with hdr and also gamma in Outlast the first thing I did upon booting up Wolfenstein 2 was check and set the gamma as per the onscreen instructions. Turns out I had the gamma waaay too high which was in fairness the default. As soon as I set it right the game looks much better and more colourful.
My Samsung 4k kinda crapped out on me. It has a shadow on one side from a burned out led strip. I bought a Sony Bravia OLED, quite the upgrade for me.

OLEDS are super cool.Try watching some 4k hdr 60fps videos on YouTube. Wildlife and travel ones.
Sony though... that must have been expensive.
So I redownloaded Wolfenstein 2 to see if I could finish it.
