homeless snail posted:A big reason seasons are big (and why ladder was popular in D2) is that every couple of months it brings everyone in multiplayer down to an even playing ground. There are leaderboards associated with the season that get reset also so it can be a competitive thing if you want. The seasonal challenges and exclusive items are a nice incentive also, though. Thanks for the info!

I never sell games, because if I sell a game I won't have that game anymore. Do you never go back and replay games a few months later? Always go all digital. Except on Switch. All physical there for some reason. Something about the cases is pleasing to me.

Switch cases are nice + the logo is small so the art is real big

I do both physical and digital depending on the size of the game, the amount I'll replay it, whether I care about the ability to play it on a different Switch (e.g. take it to a party), and whether it's a "project" game that you focus on for a particular period of time until you've finished it vs. a game that you just fire up randomly on a whim sometimes.

The switch’s cartridge cover feels extremely flimsy, like it’s going to eventually just break off even if you handle it delicately. Like, it feels like it’s designed to continuously bend back and forth, but the material just feels like normal plastic not designed to do that. Go digital. Also, you will be able to play your games anytime you want instead of having to fiddle with tiny, easily droppable carts. However, I also like the philosophy of “physical for single play through, single player games, digital for session games” style, too. If you’re going to pick one format though, go digital.

GreatGreen posted:Will any old LAN adapter work or do you need an OFFICIALLY LICENSED BY NINTENDO®™ LAN adapter? The official adapters use a generic off-the-shelf chipset, so as long as you get an adapter based on the same chipset it will work perfectly with the Switch. Look for something based on the AX88179 chipset if you want to be sure. The Switch also supports adapters based on the older AX88772 chipset (which was used by the official Wii and Wii U LAN adapters) but that's USB2 so it's not as fast.

2 Dark Souls questions. How does it handle putting the system to sleep? Do I need to play offline to not get booted to the title screen or have they found a more elegant solution? I heard something about them switching the dodge button. Is this true? This is remappable right?

veni veni veni posted:2 Dark Souls questions. - Correct. If you're online you'll need to quit/save before putting it to sleep or it'll just boot you and give you the "game didn't close properly last time you could lose poo poo". If you're offline, you can put it to sleep and it'll put the game on standby. - You can remap everything. It defaults to A.

Played Yoku's Island Express for a bit today and my goodness, it is charming. I do wish there was a checklist of all the packages you need to deliver, it's a bit hard to keep them all straight in my head. But's it's really great.

Ineffiable posted:Re: getting from software to make an exclusive souls game for switch. il serpente cosmico posted:Bayonetta 2 (and now 3) most likely wouldn't have seen the light of day without a big publisher stepping in and giving them money (Bayo 1 sold OK but apparently did not meet Platinum's expectations). The same goes for the Xenoblade series. Xenogears on PS1 did not do well enough for Square to continue the series (there were originally six planned games in that Universe). Xenosaga ended up doing poorly and the six planned games were cut down to 3. No one was banging on Monolith Soft's door asking them to make a game. Again re: FromSoftwareForSwitch, I ask these questions because I like reading insight like this. Thank you. 100YrsofAttitude posted:What're you all planning on doing? I'm leaning digital, but maybe I should just get a bigger card? My Switch's storage says Smash is 13.6 GB, I'd get it digital if you have enough room.

I played Crusader back on Diablo 3 PS4. I liked it. I wanted to try something new... I picked a Monk for Seasonal. He seems ok so far... any words of encouragement or discouragement about keeping him vs picking something else...?

If you don’t like the feel then you can easily restart with a new class and get them up to 80 quickly. Season lasts a couple months at minimum so you’re not losing a lot of time. I only tried monk once and it was strong but not exciting to me.

I’ve personally never been big on the Monk because I’m not really a fan of the spell effects. So if you want a recommendation... this random internet guy would recommend a Demon Hunter, Necro, Barbarian, or Wizard. Kinda sorta loosely in that order depending on the day according to me.

If you go throw PayPal 45 for 50 deal you can save $16ish of you count having some fund left over in your wallet. Actually you get single coins for physical so Amazon gets you like 13ish. Still a wash if not better. Go digital if you want and do the PayPal gifts thing.

Word kids. Thanks for the replies. I mean, as far as a melee dude goes, he’s got some fireworks, but I just wanted fun and flashy but not necessarily a wizard explosion show. If I switch, maybe DH or Barb.

AAB posted:whats the word on Taiko REAL FUCKIN' NEATO I've been playing all day with motion controls, which aren't 100% accurate for the side tap but it's consistent enough that I regularly fill the spirit meter on Normal difficulty. The tougher arrangements are beastly without tactile precision, though, but maybe I just need more practice. I also need to incorporate some sidestepping into the drumming - it feels like a workout within two songs!

Played a game of Jeopardy with the wife. It's good, if you enjoy watching the game show and want to play yourself it's worth $20 IMHO. Trebeck is nowhere to be found though so that might be a deal breaker.
