Banjo Kazooie is great, Banjo Twooie er... not so hot. Yooka Laylee sounds like it's more in Twooie territory.

Lego Worlds seemed to be a bit of a technical mess on the more powerful consoles, I can't imagine how it runs on a Switch.

Evil Fluffy posted:IIRC their argument was basically "if it looks like a generic shooter (Halo) cover it'll get the attention of people who play shooters." They also seemed to think that people would want it for the (outsourced?) multiplayer and seemingly wanted people to think it was a lot slower paced.

As much as I'd love a third Bravely Default game, I'm glad we are currently getting nice pixel art instead of the awful character designs that the cg cutscenes in Bravely Second promised.

I played Zelda mostly docked, but now I play almost exclusively in handheld mode. I think the games look better that way too.

enojy posted:Yea, they definitely shoehorned in a handful of things where motion controls are nigh-unavoidable, but I'm not at all mad about it. None of it is at Donkey Kong Country Returns level of "shake the Wiimote to ground pound or GLHF" so it's all good. You can do a bunch of stuff when you jump out of an enemy. Generally a hat bounce or a dive will get extra height/distance. It’s hard to get the timing right though, I spent most of the game not using stuff like that and now I have to learn all the advanced moves.

8-Bit Scholar posted:I wasn't really referring to Team Skull, they were honestly fine and would have been sufficient. To be honest, thematically they make way more sense than the actual villains of the game. A story about a secluded region that's sort of a backwater/behind the times trying to prove it is worth standing tall on the international stage would be well served with villains who are essentially lazy, apathetic and amoral punks who aren't really dangerous or threatening -- they just suck, and they bring down everything around them. They don’t address the cockfighting argument so much as bring it up then awkwardly mumble something about friendship. Lusamine rules.

I don’t think Xenoblade is a better game than Zelda or Mario, but I’m personally loving it a lot. If they patch the resolution in handheld mode it will be really great.

Policenaut posted:I'm about 40 hours in and I'm getting the texture pop-in like an hour after I boot the game up, just standing around for up to 20-30 seconds waiting for the game to load everything in sometimes. The frame rate in Torigoth gets pretty bad too, especially around those bridges. Playing docked. I’ve seen the textures load in when travelling but it never takes even close to 30 seconds.

mancalamania posted:I disagree, I think the beauty of the game is its simplicity and not feeling obligated to fiddle around constantly minmaxing skills and such for each battle. I don't think I changed around my skill tree once, although the knowledge that I could if I needed to was pretty liberating and freed me up to make quick impulse decisions about what skills sounded cool. I also don't think it was necessarily designed around players constantly re-doing their skill tree, since I think pre-release copies made you pay coins to reset it. There are skill for fighting higher level enemies and you aren’t given sidequest experience unless you ask for it, so you can easily challenge yourself with loadouts instead of levelling. On the other hand if you want you can just grind it out, or anything inbetween the two.

Astro7x posted:My problem with Mario Maker is the same problem I had with LittleBigPlanet. There is so much poo poo to wade through that it’s a challenge to find actual good levels, which can be really amazing. I wish they found a way to just package up the best levels and let me play through a 32 stage “game” without having to hunt for each level. I would just search for hours and find 99% of it to be garbage. My problem with LittleBigPlanet was that it was a bad platformer and then Sony killed it.
