I'm playing through dark souls for the first time and I am enjoying it quite a bit, but I need to ask: do later games clean up some of the jank? The camera is loving atrocious and has caused my death several times, terrain geometry is poorly communicated, the enemy ai is...something else... Like I said, I'm enjoying it, it's just a lot rougher around the edges than I expected from years of hearing how great it is

I weirdly want to play bordlerlands 2 on switch, with motion aiming while we're at it. Especially since the Vita version was almost but not quite playable. That would be a neat way to burn 100 hours

Hand Row posted:I enjoy the someone should have noticed and changed it comments. As if some schlub from the NA office can just ring up the dev team and order the change. Localization isn't just translating written text; they examine all of the content in the game and identify ANYTHING that ought to be tweaked for the target region. Treehouse's literal job is to work directly with the devs and figure out appropriate changes, for everything from low-stakes stuff like "Americans won't recognize this food, could you draw a burger instead for the NA version?" to really hosed up stuff like "Uh hey, you made this character animation a racial caricature, could you not?".

This is the biggest and worst controversy ever for Nintendo. If they don't make this change I am going to set my Switch on fire and sell of my Nintendo stock. Even if they make the change I don't think I can support a company that produces such a severely abhorrent racist caricature. Nintendo is done for mark my words

You mainly get used to it after a while and learn how to mitigate the camera problems by not relying on lock-on in areas where it causes camera problems. I've found the AI to be pretty consistent though.

Every followup in the series solves some jank and introduces different kinds. In 2 the big one is that if your adaptability is low the game feels like unfair garbage because it affects so much quality of life around common actions, while the big one in 3 is that they kept poise as a stat even after changing it to more of a conditional superarmor thing attached to stuff like weapon arts, so there's a vestigal stat sticking around doing nothing.

The AI (and enemies in general) are somewhat more aggressive in DS2 and way more aggressive in DS3. There’s a natural progression to it that never feels overwhelming and really rewards you by playing it fast and loose. Camera remains unchanged and you learn to deal with it. The map design is generally simpler / streamlined which avoid some of the geometry pitfalls at the expense of a less cohesive world.

The poise thing is extra because if you change a value in an .ini file on the PC version, it enables it and it acts just like it did in earlier games. I wouldn't recommend doing this if you don't want a VAC ban, however.

I'm not arguing with you if it's an issue or not I'm just curious. The ai issues I've seen are generally silly stuff, like getting caught up on the geometry, or climbing a few rungs on a ladder only to start climbing down, then up then down a couple times until finally deciding to climb to the top. Weird stuff like that. It's all the more noticable when I get killed over and over and go through the same enemies repeatedly; their behavioral inconsistencies start to stand out. I went through a big hollow tree last night and the camera would suddenly shift to the side as I walked along a narrow branch. Suddenly pressing up on the stick meant a sharp turn to the right = splat. I lost my vast fortune of 20k souls that way

asecondduck posted:To me, and probably others, that's what it feels like though. I'm not at all familiar with G&W history so to me, torch G&W was just, well, G&W with a torch. Before today I didn't even know that there were Native American stereotypes in any G&W games, and I would have rather kept it that way. G&W with a torch was always referencing this game (although I didn't know it). The change is that all of G&W's moves now transform him into more like he looked in the game it's from, so this isn't like one move they specifically did to be racist. Still should have had more thought go into it. It seems like a lot of people are mad about the original game though, and not the new sprite itself. (The new sprite is what drew attention to the original game.) Would removing the feather be enough now or does the whole torch move need to be replaced by something else?

A lot of folks falling over themselves to be real edgy here. The animation is bad, and it will probably be removed as soon as logistically possible because Nintendo has certainly removed lesser things from games.Modus Pwnens posted:G&W with a torch was always referencing this game (although I didn't know it).

There was a re-release version for the GBA where they just took the feathers off to make the attackers into generic angry guys, and that would do the trick just fine.

D3 plays real nice on switch handheld, but man the battery life drain is real. Is it worse than other AAA games? Honestly 90% of my play time on this device has been Binding of Isaac so maybe I'm just spoiled on battery life.

I've played almost nothing but Dark Souls for the past couple weeks and I don't feel like I'm anywhere near done with it. I beat the game on Halloween, which felt pretty cool, and I'm loving new game+ since I can actually use all these giant crazy weapons without fatrolling. Right now I'm naked save for havel's shield, helm, and his dragon tooth, which does so much damage that ng+ is actually feeling kind of trivial. Eventually I want to wear the full set but it looks like I need an insane amount of endurance if I still want to dodge. The only part of the game that really disappointed me was Lost Izalith, land of a thousand dragon asses. People aren't kidding when they say the game feels unfinished in parts. But other than that I loved just about everything. It never felt like I died because of stupid bullshit (unless it was my own stupid bullshit) and the world feels great when you're exploring everything for the first time. I thought that it might get a bit boring without the exploration, finding new shortcuts metroidvania-style, running into crazy new enemies you're not sure you can deal with yet, but so far it's still just really fun. I'm playing a big fat strength and endurance guy right now, and after this I'm rolling a dex character, then a mage, paladin, etc, but I don't think that will quench my thirst for more souls. I might have to get a PS4 just for bloodborne and the other souls games. Also I'm glad this exists, because it's the first thing I searched for after fighting the gravelord.

C.M. Kruger posted:Quick question, when the Switch I ordered finally shows up in the mail, can I just go ahead and put in the larger memory card I got for it, or will I need to set everything up and then copy the card contents to the new one? I would recommend putting your SD card in first, before downloading/playing any games. For one, if it's a SDXC card it will have to download a system update. But also, when you download games/updates/DLC it's preferentially stored to the SD card before on-board memory, which leaves space available for game saves and system updates. If you download games/updates/DLC before inserting a SD card, then those games take up on-board memory and you could run out later.
