Oh that loving sucks. Did you try opening the game back up and hitting "Continue"? I've had crashes occasionally but that'll start you back at the floor . Worst case it should start you back at floor 5 and you'll have to kill the Dragun again , but hopefully it'll start you at the Past section. Either way you should still have the Bullet unlocked now for all characters so you'll never have to do that again

Yeah it starts you at the start of floor 5. Assuming I don't take too much damage from the floor I think I can probably kill the boss again but the chances of another crash are high. This is far from the first crash so this was just the last straw.

Though all these crashes made me realize how the game saves and how easy it'd be to savescum if you get a bad floor layout/items.

I was thinking of getting Enter the Gungeon after I saw some good reviews but held off because it's not quite a genre I like. Glad I did because this sounds really tedious and frustrating. Maybe by the time it's on sale it'll be patched and stable.

Edit: And speaking of on sale Oxenfree is 75% off. Another one that's not my preferred genre but for $5 I couldn't pass it up.

Why yes my Steam catalog is 97% games I got on sale and haven't played, why do you ask?

The EtG patch that apparently fixes these issues and others was submitted to Nintendo before Christmas and should hit the eshop whenever , at this point

Stardew Valley still hasn't come out for the Switch in Japan and there's no indication it ever will, even though it's been on Steam here for a long time. I wonder why not? It has no competition for that kind of game on the platform right now.

Can you not change your region and download it off a different eShop? That's how I got the Disgaea 5 demo in very early days.

I suppose (though as you know there's a cost to buying things from another region so I'd rather not) but I was more wondering why not. I think it would sell a lot.

I believe the eshop lets you use a US credit card to buy games in other countries, which is kind of surprising -- not sure if it works the other way around. Sometimes it comes out to be much cheaper than buying in your own region, I know people grabbed Enter The Gungeon for like $7 on the Mexican eshop

I sprung for a Pro Controller ASAP. The Joycons attached to the Switch in portable mode also feels a lot worse to me than the Wii U Gamepad did. I hope there are new Joycons put out that are designed just for making portable mode feel good.

I'm with you on that. The wii-u just didn't get the love it deserved and I loved the tablet. The design left a lot to be desired and it had limited range but it was very comfortable to hold. I love my pro controllers and wish they worked with the switch. I saw that there are dongles you can buy to get them to sync. Anyways, I went ahead and ordered a switch pro controller because I'll get one anyway

Just had a total brain wave of how I can streamline my bedroom while having both the Switch and PS4 connected at the same time and have space for games, controllers, headsets, everything. For relatively cheap, too. Let's see if it makes sense in the morning when I haven't had a sleeping pill. Too bad there won't be space to hook up my 16 other systems and games but that game room in progress is two floors down anyway.

I played around a bit last night and finally made it off the Great Plateau and did all the things the Old Man told me to do.

It is super dumb/helpful how tanky you immediately get after buying the Hylian set in Kakariko and upgrading them at the giant fairy behind the shrine.

I was also really mad about dodging and stuff in combat until I stumbled across the shrine on the way to Kakariko. That shrine really should have been on the Great Plateau.

Also, sneaking up on and taming a horse was super fun. Very helpful for traversing long distances without having to climb up a thing and glider off.
