Louisgod posted:I've put 25 hours into it so far and am really, really struggling to see where the serious good is in it. I just left a town that was sinking or something so my team could go get a flying ship they heard about in passing on another continent. Yes, leave this sinking city to come back hours later and hope that people are still alive. I love the Tales games but Jesussss Abyss is a wreck. I'll go play it now and hope that something remotely fun happens. They are leaving cause the town is doomed. Please don't tell me that there are characters that believe they can save those people who are sinking into like... miasma. I must be remembering the dialog wrong. You are almost at the point where Luke stops being a twat.

Handgun Harlot posted:Controls are the thing that makes video games active entertainment; if you only have graphics and sound and maybe a story, that's called a movie. If the one thing you have to interface with a video game is the controls, how can you possibly pretend it's not there? Like morale, it's only a topic that comes up when you have the sneaking suspicion that it's poo poo. A good game has controls so intuitive you barely notice what you're doing. A bad game makes you think about the controls. No, KI just has controls that makes you sissies cry out in anger because your pussy hands can't hold a system and a stylus.  I didn't think of poo poo when I played the game, the whole way through. It's a good game, period, quit being little bitches and take breaks if your hands really aren't that strong.

I gotta ask the thread something: in the EO4 demo, when you first get to the dungeon, and you had your 3D on... Did it make you feel crossed eyed for a second or three? It did me. Everything was literally popping out at me, so it took a second. Game is hella pretty, though.

Countblanc posted:It definitely seems like poo poo unlocks pretty fast in Brain Age - just by doing everything once for two days I have half the devilish stuff and a bit of everything else. Numbers and words are the poo poo. Someone should make a thread so we can laugh at each other's progress when the game tells us we're all 20 years older than we actually are. I'm... 35 years older than I am.  A thread wouldn't be a bad idea.

Karthe posted:And Animal Crossing: New Leaf looks amazing! Thank god they decided to de-emphasize Nook's aggressive real estate practices and just let you enjoy being mayor of the town. We had a lot of naysayers in here a while ago about the game, but I've been watching this guy's playthrough of the Japanese version of Animal Crossing, and uh, yeah, guys, it looks like a game worth picking up if you are into that kind of stuff. I was gonna pipe up then, but I decided "Who cares about them." Dear God, there is going to be a huge goon community for this game filling each other's towns with dong posters.

How's the Castlevania demo, EU Goons? I've been slightly excited by the game since they released information on it, and it sounds pretty decent. I'm not expecting a full blown Metroidvania, but it sounds like it is taking some cues.

Gutcruncher posted:Yeah, Code of Princess would have been worth 20 bucks I think. That sounds about right. Online play is kind of borked, too. Causes too much slowdown. Also, holy crap that Castlevania demo is bad. I was kind of looking forward to the game thinking it will be similar to HoD on the GBA. Nope, nothing like it. It wishes it was a real Castlevania or Metroidvania game. I might play through it when it hits like, five bucks on Amazon.

big mean giraffe posted:The demo was pretty fun, but man that bee level was annoying as gently caress. Hope those 'boss' levels are few and far between. Funny, that is typical rhythmic gameplay right there. Question and answer. There seems to be a ton of those boss fights in the main game, if the multiple trailers are a thing to go by.

Laser Spider posted:Regarding HarmoKnight itself, aside from what others have already said I really like the art style. If it looks like a comic strip made into a game, that's pretty much because it is; in the Iwata Asks interview about HarmoKnight, the earliest design documents were written as comics and had pretty much the same style as the game today. That interview also talks a fair bit about Game Freak's relatively open development process, which makes me wonder why they've done so few non-Pokémon games for over 15 years now. It explains why in there. You are given three months to get a game going with two or so people, basically. If the idea is worth taking off, they give you a couple more people to help you out with, and three more months. Game Freak also seems like the type of company that'd rather not show off betas and things. It's a Nintendo thing. They really don't like showing off half-bakes in any form.

Dragon Quest also doesn't have the balls to allow monsters to smash newbie players in the face with avoidable encounters. Wizardry doesn't like you playing it, Etrian Odyssey has the decency to let you know when danger is coming.

The Donkey Kong Country games were kind of dark, but not in a angsty or evil way, just surreal. Returns is majorly cartoony. It's probably how Nintendo really wanted the series to begin with. It just rubs you the wrong way, right?

Why do enemies really matter in a Metroidvania anyways? You are gonna just blaze a trail straight through them, unless its like OoC where enemies were an actual threat.

Cherokee Jack posted:So today I bought my wife a 3DS XL, Fire Emblem Awakening, Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon and a $20 3DS card for her birthday. Do you think she'll like the Luigi game? She's not big into adventure games (Zelda) or platformers (except for Kirby games) but enjoys Nintendo Land's Ghost Mansion. Good choice? Yeah, good choice. The game is much slower paced compared to Zelda games and most platformers. She'll probably love the actual adventure gameplay.

I realized I had collected a bunch of Miis from New Leaf, but I can't seem to actually use them for anything. They have a use now: in one of the Mii games, your starting army is based on how many Mii's you've met, online or off. It works the same way with others you Street pass. But yeah, overall useless, I guess.

What also kind of worries and excites me is the items are on pedestals like in Four Swords Adventure. So not only is there a chance for the swapping mechanic, but possible multiplayer? I guess they would've announced that already.
