No Captain Falcon either. Rip.

He's the only one from the initial Smash 64 roster left out.

That art looks bad.

And not just because they used Marth instead of literally any other FE character.

Fortnite is pretty fun! Really hope they add gyro aim soon. The last match I played tonight I died to some player across the map and I got slightly annoyed until I realized they had killed eight other people before me. I decided to spectate and turns out that they were insanely good at the game, whipping up towers faster than I could comprehend and baiting out people. They were playing on PC (constant weapon cycling while walking around was the dead giveaway there).

And then there were two. My killer set up an elaborate tower, the other player set up some walls behind two trees across from them. My killer shot down one of the walls and waited with their sniper rifle.

The winner snuck around the back and shotgunned my killer. It was only their second kill of the round. Their nickname was something Nintendo related, so it’s fairly safe to assume which platform they was using.

So while I went in thinking that new Switch players would be at a massive disadvantage to the people that have been playing on PC for months. Nope, turns out luck and being clever means more than a mouse and macros.

You can't evolve the Let's Go partner Mon so go with Pikachu because why the gently caress would you want an Eevee that can't evolve?

People are massively pissed on Reddit about it, and not just because of the Switch—apparently PS players got some kind of outfit so people linked their PlayStation accounts to their Epic profile and now they’re locked to playing on their PS4s. I bet Epic is gonna create some kind of one-time-only Sony account transfer because whooo boy people are angry.

From what I’ve seen online it’s across all platforms, PC, console, and mobile all get dumped into the same servers. Well, unless you’re playing on a PS4 because Sony are being dicks about crossplat play.

It crossplays with Xbox One, PC and even the phone version. The only think it won’t with is PS4 since Sony is lame about crossplay.

I played hollow knight before and I don't even care. A second playthrough is just as fun, especially when the first one was over 6 months ago.

It's kind of like reading a classic piece of literature. You always extract more value from your second or third playthrough. Yes, hollow knight is that good. I consider it a masterpiece of the genre, extremely rich and very fun to play on too of the art music etc

To be honest playing ports hadn't felt all that magical lately (though it was still fun). But hollow knight feels so drat good, to think I have this gorgeous game on a little tablet is too much to hear goons

What's even more hosed is that the game is only $15. If you enjoy metroidvanias to any capacity and haven't played this, holy hell man. You have to check it out.

Hope you enjoyed this top ten list see ya next time 🤙

Yeah I have noticed that as well, but it seemed to drop below 24fps in the trailer footage.
The last FE I played was Awakening and I thought the cutscenes looked awesome in that one.

Apparently the normal anime framerate is something like 12fps, and they all goddamn do it with CGI because they want to match that for "accuracy" even though it looks terrible. The only CGI anime series I've seen where they have a decent framerate is Cyborg 009: Call of Justice.

I was going to say that Fortnite probably wouldn't get gyro controls because it could give an advantage over other twin stick options, but then I remembered that it's also crossplay with PC and therefore keyboard and mouse controls. Considering that, adding gyros doesn't really seem like it'd be that advantageous and instead just be a nice convenience option.

I did some more digging and to be honest I can’t get a solid answer on if the Switch Fortnite defaults to putting you on the same servers as PC/Xbone players. If you’re on mobile, though, you have to enable it in settings. I’d check my Switch but I’m already in bed.

I’m 99% certain the player I spectated was on PC though, their aim was too precise for a stick and the way they were cycling through weapons looked unmistakably like a bored PC gamer flicking the scroll wheel.

Fire Emblem Warriors is probably my favorite Musou game due to it's tactical additions working really well with the "oh god everything is happening everywhere oh gently caress" pace of your typical Musou title.

however the story, fan service, characters, and other things of that nature really started to get on my nerves by the end of the campaign.
