I can't quite understand that corner trick. I'm so bad at anything larger than 10x10 grids.

In his typed out example: If the first 10 starts in the top row, the 10 next to it must also start in the top row because of the first horizontal 2. Therefore it can be assumed that the first two columns are 10s straight down. BUT That's invalidated by the third row 1. If you had 10s in the first two vertical rows, you would expect the first number in all of the horizontal rows to be ≥2. But since the third row is a 1, the 10s can't start until the 4th row.

Sorry goons but EDF is an unoptimized trash game and nowhere near perfect for switch.

Im glad I kept my 3DS around long enough to play remake metroid game I haven't played since 1987 or whatever so it's practically new to me. Now I just need to finish it cause there ARE TOO MANY GAMES ON THE SWITCH

Am I missing something with stardew valley, it won't let me use tools? I'm only on day two but I want to clear my farm and it won't let me use any tools, someone gave me a fishing rod but it won't let me fish? When I toggle the shoulder button it lets me hold seeds and flowers over my head but when I select tools nothing happens, seems weird Edit:reloaded game, it works now, phew! nerd_of_prey fucked around with this message at 22:03 on Oct 5, 2017 |

DACK FAYDEN posted:It's kind of hard to put into words, but the way it works is something like "the pair of 10s can't both start on the first tile, because then you'd have a 2 in the third row but you know there's a 1 there, but there's a 2 in the first row so they would have to start next to each other". And then in the screenshotted example below it, it'd be "the trio of 2s can't all start immediately because you'd have a 3 in the second row but you know there's a 2 there, and there's a 6 in the first row so you can't break up once you start, so the first one can't start on the first square". Ah, gotcha. I don't think I've ever had a situation in the Jupiter games that required that kind of logic, but maybe I made a similar leap without realizing it.

Kawabata posted:Is that so? I've heard about the story not being as "good" (lol) as XC1 but everyone who played it told me the gameplay is even better with a host of qol improvements the predecessor obviously didn't have. Anyone who told you this is lying to you, especially when it comes to combat and its layers upon layers of systems and buffs and SV triggers and god knows whatever the gently caress else. If you don't mess with the soul voice (or whatever it's called) stuff then you're even more at the mercy of RNG for things like mid-combat healing. Flying around in a Skell is fun and rad though, no denying that.

It boils down to 'if I fill this square will it eventually create a shape that doesn't fit the numbers?' It's basically guessing, except you're explicitly looking for wrong guesses so you can safety discount them. This makes it infinitely more useful than real guessing. It works best close to/in corners because it's easier to see how your guess affects the squares around it, but it can be applied in many other situations too. Earlier today I had a line with two possible positions for a block of 4, and wouldn't you know it one of them turned out to create an invalid block of 3 on the line above.

Didn't someone in here pull the trigger on Brave Dungeon+Dark Witch Story? Curious to hear impressions, it looks like it's two different games? Also Earth Atlantis looks pretty cool.

Still very early in Stardew but the port seems way better than the Xbox One was initially, so hopefully they ironed out most of the game-breaking bugs before releasing it this time. The only issues I'm seeing elsewhere online seem to be minor ones that were fixed with a reboot/reinstall. Hopefully my first-born doesn't end up getting born in a wall and aging improperly this time. edit: Stardew good

Giant robot exploration, despite what you might think is... not as fun. Why the hell are you guys talking about xenoblade chronicles X in here? It made me think it had come out for the switch.

Also Earth Atlantis looks pretty cool. I bought it and it's basically a bog standard dungeon crawler. There's not much story to be found, the music is really repetitive, and the UI is minimal, but if you love your animes and want a grindy sort of game you can pick up for 10-15 minutes at a time game, you could probably do worse for the eight bucks or whatever it costs. Didn't try the other game/mode yet.

MY WIFE is playing Stardew Valley and I'm going nuts because it sounds like the speakers on my TV have blown out, a static-y type sound along with the game's normal audio. I mess around with unplugging things and checking my stereo and the TV's audio settings to no avail, then I start googling. Turns out it's a thing that other people have noticed. Probably wouldn't bug me in portable mode but on the TV it's kind of maddening.

The only reason you might not like Stardew Valley on Nintendo Switch (tm) is if you somehow decide you need mods. Otherwise if you've ever liked a Harvest Moon type game, you're good to go.

Oddly enough, I didn't like Harvest Moon when I played the (one of?) the DS one, but I like Stardew Valley just fine. Haven't played enough of Rune Factory 4 to decide if I like it.

It's looking better and better that I'll still be able to get a splatoon bundle the day Mario comes out and cop those with Zelda. I want to get all 3 to justify the console purchase, but god I want those neon joycons. My area has been stacked with 80+ units all month long.

If they ported XCX and bayonetta 2 to the switch I would be able to forget that the wii U exists. The fact that XCX is bad means I'm halfway there anyway.
