Didn't it run on the ps3? It's probably possible but they won't do it

On the moon... they don't make Neo Kobe Pizza.

They abandoned the PS3 version because it was holding back the PC and PS4 versions and even that PS4 version is starting to get a little long in the tooth.

Huh, I knew Vesperia was gonna be 60fps in battles and 30fps out of them, but seems the key thing is that it's unlocked because there's definitely areas when I started up the game it was going faster than 30. Nice surprise I suppose?

I bailed on it after my party was able to beat a boss without any input from me. At that point I felt if I wasn't needed I might as well go play something else.

That's the point of the mechanics though. It's an MMO party management simulator. Your job is to make the AI do what pubbies can't: properly follow orders.

Zelda is a lame series salvaged by how expensively produced the games are that hasn't done anything worth much since Ocarina. BotW's universal worship by the press was a big joke for those who remember when Nintendo actually put out exciting titles like Thousand Year Door and Metroid Prime.

I suspect the level of effort I put into this sentiment wouldn't stop you from getting pissy.

I actually just started playing breath of the wild after owning it for a year. I think the game is good, and I like playing it.


Also I am pretty bad at it, because I mostly enjoy wandering around like an rear end in a top hat and smashing my weapons against weird monsters in the dead of night.


And I'm loving terrible at dodging and I feel like I constantly accidentally hit L3 and drop into a crouch mid-battle like some kind of rear end in a top hat.

The game is pretty fun but the controls are absolute dogshit. I played it for like 20 hours and still I kept making mistakes.

I thought it controlled great but the first thing I did was switch jump to b and climb to x. The default seemed wrong.

BOTW is one of the few games that justifies its open world and I enjoyed the hell out of it during my playthrough. I still need to go back and play the DLC. I started it but then put it down.

I like that the game gives you almost all of your tools right at the start; it allows you to solve problems in a lot of different ways, and theoretically allows for more robust puzzle design. I like the way the various world systems interact.

In practice I think the shrines fell a little flat. Too many of them were exactly the alike, and too many were overly simple. There were some gems, though. The load times were too long.

It's probably my favorite Zelda, though.

I didn't think I was squeezing that hard :(


Here's a weird question. There was a shrine where you had to gyro control a ball through a maze, and I could not finesse that at all, so instead i flipped the whole maze upside down and when the ball fell i just used the upside down maze as a pinball flipper to shoot the ball where it was supposed to go. does this make me an idiot or a genius?

For some reason some posters think that when someone is criticizing a game, that they think it's bad. People are able to think a game is good and still have stuff they wish could have been implemented.

It's still my favorite open world game. Exploring feels so much more fun in BOTW than any other open world game I've played.

I love BOTW and Zelda. Wish rain wasn't so annoying since it doesn't let me climb walls or cook food. A sequel with dungeons and even more crazy items to let me get around would be sick. Okay thanks.

No idea, but it's what was voted upon by the NicoNico community so 🤷🏻‍♂️Bowsette has been huge in Japan.

Edit: I'm going to WonderFestival next month in Tokyo, which is most about garage kits. I expect to see a few Bowsette figures there.

If you could have asked me for anything in BOTW it would be gear that allows you to not slip in the rain versus stopping and making a campfire.

2nd: I'd ask for some more traditional zelda gadgets.
3rd: Like, maybe 2-3 more dungeons

but i think it was a masterpiece anyway
