I'm still kinda shocked that they released it at that pricepoint when it was clearly still an indie game, with the scope and limitations that implies. I didn't really pay attention to NMS so maybe sony pumped money into it beyond promotion but they really seemed to be asking for disappointment with that.

yeah then I dunno what the hello games people were thinking. it was still way overhyped but a ~$20 high-concept game that didn't quite realize itself probably would've gone over better

Yeah who is saying you HAVE to get all the korok seeds, I've heard far more praise for them being so plentiful that you can easily get enough of them for what you need without getting every last one.

I think one of the most common gaps in thinking between devs and the segment of players that post on forums is that a lot of games aren't designed with 100% completion in mind

My first trek through BotW's snowy areas was done by relying on a flame sword I couldn't risk actually fighting with much, which was fun enough to justify the durability system to me.

If none other, I heavily recommend watching episode 17.

I bought the Sonic game. It's real good so far. One of the things I've noticed is the levels feel HUGE again. Like, in most platformers if you miss a jump you just die, start over. With the original Sonic games, if you missed a jump you were suddenly in a part of the level you'd never seen before, with new mechanics and challenges. That's something that has been in the newer games but never to the same scale. Studiopolis and Chemical Plant in Mania perfectly encapsulate that, it's great.

I'm not even sure if the game even really has pits unless you're really, really determined in Chemical plant or something.

Yeah but this is a whole scenario that feels like it could've fit into the main story, just also Sponsored by Assassins Creed (TM).

e: it's not bad, just weird that this will give human empire guys more screentime than the actual game.

That "who needs that when you have the power of an assassin" line would be the most hilarious product push if not for CUP NOODLES.

Yeah basic cross-promotion stuff like items or outfits are fairly common, this is funny because it does about as much or more with that town as the main game.

tbh i'm sadder about legends 3 than i am about half-life 3 because legends 3 actually has bits of concept work that exist and are really good, like the new character's design was actually really, really good and the sample music track was loving

heck, it even had a near-complete demo that they planned to put up on the eshop that got tossed with the rest of the project after Inafune bailed

Funny detail about monhun: in addition to making tons of money as-is, another reason people think it remains fairly free from meddling is that one of the producers is the son of capcom's CEO.

I will be really sad if Ys 8 sucks, like, celceta was not very good and also it ran like poo poo on Vita, please be good 8

If you just really don't like party style Ys it probably won't change your mind but outside of that I see people really liking it.
