Starfield looks really boring. These space games always end up being boring.

The most exciting announcement was Persona.

Really? Nothing at all? Not even Starfield? That's a loving lie lol

Just lots of cool-looking games, like that vampire one, the plague one, flight simulator with Halo where you can go into space, Sea of Thieves, Little legends, gently caress there were so many games where I was like "oh that looks like fun".

And they're ALL on Gamepass. Essentially free. Whereas our Nintendo gamepass gets us cloud saves and some N64 roms.

Maybe the next Nintendo direct will blow us away, but the last one nearly put me (and a lot of people here) to sleep, so we'll see.

I just think Nintendo needs to pull some amazing stuff out of the bag, I can name 2 games that I'm looking forward to in the next year.

How could you think Starfield looked good.:lol:

If you like mostly janky western made games than Switch probably isn’t for you.

I am still excited for Starfield, but now I know where to center my expectations, which were lower than I wanted them to be. Starfield will be yet another open world RPG that promises the everything but delivers on none of it. I'm not gonna get over hyped for it though like I did Cyberpunk 2077.

It's me. I'm the one who thinks Starfield looks good. I think it's going to be a fun game after I add 1k mods to it.

I'm not kidding. I am hyped as gently caress for Starfield.

I wouldn't say I'm super hyped, I don't even own an Xbox console, and who knows how well it'll play on my PC, but I think it looks good.

starfield looked very dull and 'systemy' in a very expected evolution of their last two games toward less interesting things and more building/crafting. it works for a lot of people but i miss the system being mostly exploration to find weird poo poo and weird npcs that had cool stuff to say, so there were a lot more of them. going to play it for a long time with a lot of mods though

You’re right and I was being a little harsh, I apologize, but I personally think it looks meh.

Other than those, I’m looking forward to Live-A-Live, Advance Wars, MH Sunbreak, more Mario Kart tracks, Mario Rabbids 2, Klonoa and Bayonetta 3. Quite a lot actually now that I thought about it!

Edit: Xenoblade 3 and Fire Emblem Three Hopes too.

A lot of great games were displayed at the Microsoft/Bethesda showcase, it's a bit odd to claim nothing looked good. Since I don't own a PS5 or a Series S/X, but DO have a fairly modern PC, Sony's and Microsoft's conferences were amazing.


It left me asking, "Well, Nintendo?"

A lot of the titles they announced a year or two ago will be out within (I assume) the next 12 months. It feels like the end of a console cycle, but without any hint of a new console on the horizon. What is Nintendo's plan for 2023? What big games are coming out holiday 2022 (aside from Pokemon)?

Edit: Also, I'm looking forward to Xenoblade 3. I may get Splatoon, but I've never played one before and the interest is not all the way there.

And it made one-eighth the difference.
Bethesda games are stupid fun, they're bad games but they usually have enough going on that it's fun to play them for awhile. Not that I trust much about Starfield, but I'll just rent it on Game Pass and maybe by that time my Steam Dreck will be here and I can play it on that.

In the meantime there's loving Live A Live next month so,

Atlus did post and no Switch. Maybe they’re saving that for a Direct but we’ll see.

Ah, it's possible they're waiting for a joint announcement with Nintendo but I am now less certain.

Atlas has been really weird about the Switch. Persona has a main character in Smash and the only representation that series gets is the Warriors(?) spin-off/sequel game.

Which I'm not going to touch because I haven't played the game it's a sequel to, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Oh well. Persona 5 doesn't come to Switch I'll just play it on my computer like I did for 4. I won't be happy about it, but at least I'll get to play it.

Shredder's Revenge looks like it'll be a lot of fun to play. I still need to beat a couple of things, I completely stalled out at the beginning of the post-game of Kirby. And all the Virtual Console games I have floating around need to get done too!

I'm excited for those games too, but look at your list: remake, sequel, DLC, sequel, sequel...

Atm we're just getting "more of the same" on Switch, would be nice to get some genuinely exciting new IPs but sadly I think the Switch is being left behind due to it's sagging power. It's still my go-to for excellent indie games, but it's a shame.

Also in 2022 expecting new IPs or even returns to older IPs from big publishers is a pretty big ask in a lot of cases because of how risk-averse most of them are now.

It's technically possible if you mod Android on a homebrew Switch, but GamePass Cloud gaming is too laggy in my experience to really work that well.
