*crickets*
I came 2nd in one of them.One hit from a Piranha Plant can nuke your whole run.
To me it was even better than Pikmin.You could build and upgrade your kingdom and it's charm was off the charts.
Really enjoyable game too, I had to force myself to stop playing it so I can focus on Cyberpunk first.
Also tried Call of Juarez, didn't realise it was also a Techland game. Switch 2 crisps everything up.
The motion controls are really fun and even though you call freely move about it almost feels like a light gun game and really nails the feeling of being in a wild west gunfight.
I assume Dying Light sold poorly on Switch, because Germany effectively banned the game from the eshop across all PAL regions.
Quite a sad affair, Techland seem to make great games.
So firstly it's certified and supports HDR10 but isn't bright enough to display proper HDR.
According to a PC magazine monitor reviewer he says its still a decent panel with higher brightness, better colours and higher resolution, over Switch 1s panel. He also said the colours are a match for the OLED and the screen is matte enough that you get deeper blacks.
He says that he couldn't notice any blur, despite tests. But that the blur does exist and is viewable in 1/30th of a second.
He said that there may be a panel lottery as one reviewer had measured the screen response time as twice as fast as the lowest review.
What's more interesting is the reason for the supposed screen response time.
Most LCDs use LCD Overdrive, a way of forcing faster response times by feeding it more electricity.
Switch 2 doesn't seem to be using LCD overdrive even if its technically capable, it's a fairly standard feature. And the informed speculation is to preserve battery life.
So Nintendo could patch it, it's not that the screen is abnormally slow, it's that they're deliberately trying to save your battery life.
Personally I've not noticed any blur or ghosting but I haven't played any fast moving 2D games on it.
I can't copy and paste links into the news boxes anymore as it copies a huge chunk of text I have to delete. And a Google pass through link.
The notifications and settings had changed and messed up. Now you have to swipe down from the right or left of the screen to get either notifications OR quick settings panel bar. How do I change this back?
And its changed the colour theme from light to dark. FFS.
It's also reactivated Bixby and forced the side button back to gemeni.
Dear god man, you use a phone to do updates! What witchcraft is this?
That would be entertaining. It was such a fun and charming game.
Little King's Story includes more traditional RPG-style combat and kingdom-building mechanics. It also mixes real-time strategy, life simulation, and RPG elements, whereas Pikmin is more focused on real-time strategy and puzzle-solving.
I enjoyed LKS myself though I never finished it for some reason.
Little King's Story is, by an order of magnitude, superior to the baby's first RTS that is Pikmin.
And I say that as a mental baby who is a big fan of Pikmin.
most of my news posts were done via my phone too
I post exclusively from my phone. I haven't logged in on a desktop or laptop in years.
I'm a bit put off SF6 when I see Ryu, Ken, M.Bison and Sagat in their older form.
Capcom seem to think making characters older means hairy, unshaven, slovenly dressed, beat up and scared and generally looking like hobos.
It feels like an insult to one of my fondest memories, playing SF2 in arcades in the 90s.
I’m fine with ageing video game characters myself. Like the Street Fighter 6 older designs of the legacy characters.
If Indiana Jones was 80 in the last game, would that be fine or is the one in his prime better?I think videogames are one medium where you can keep characters eternally young.
And fuck it man. I'm getting older and more broken down. They should too.
I first checked out Returnal. I can't decide the game is either genius or just fucking terrible. Either way, I'm not real good at it, but at the same time I can't tell whether or not that is by design or not. But after 4 hours, I haven't really progressed the story much. So I've decided to write it off. Really happy I tested it, because I have had that in my shopping cart for a while, and it just doesn't seem like it's for me.
I also tried out Dredge. It's supposed to be a Lovecraftian fishing game. The idea is neat, and it's got a lot of elements that should be drawing me in, but it's just not happening. I think it's a little too light on direction. Part of me feels bad because I really haven't given it a fair shake yet, but at the same time I need more out of a game than the town mayor saying, "nobody knows how you got here, but why didn't you go out and catch some fish? Oh and don't go out at night."
Wouldn’t bother me to be honest. Would find it pretty hilarious though playing an Indiana Jones game as an old Indy.
Not saying developers have to age their characters just that I don’t mind if they do.
Unfortunately, I quickly learned that they did not remake Factions along with the main game. And that still pisses me off. Next to splatoon, I think factions was my favorite online gaming of the past 10 or 15 years. I'd say it's hard to believe Sony fumbled that, but then there was the whole Concord fiasco, and Factions looks like a minor bump in the road compared to that.
