Can someone explain to me what makes Hyrule Warriors a good "one of those"?

Sakurazuka posted:Amazing amount of variety in characters and weapons, refined controls, ridiculous amount of content, emphasis on rts-lite objective prioritisation rather than just wandering around whacking stuff and taking over bases. Cool, I've been looking for something kind of mindless to jump into but I need stuff to work towards or I get bored. Sounds like it has that.

Hyrule Warriors question: Should I be actively be going for Skulltula's during the campaign? It feels like I often have to ignore more pressing objectives to go scour the map when a Skulltula pops up, and I'm wondering if maybe you're intended to save those for another mode or something. Are there meaningful unlocks (weapons/characters) tied to those? ^^^Golf Story is great, very cute and clever. It's not a particularly challenging or deep golf game though.

I'm enjoying Hyrule Warriors so far (actually quite a bit more than I expected to) but I find the amount of information you need to absorb a bit daunting. One thing that's been bothering me is it seems like sometimes characters give you some heads-up if they're about to die, but then sometimes it'll just be like "Zelda fled, you lose" out of nowhere. Luckily they let you just jump back to a checkpoint though, it would suck if you had to start from the beginning.

Silver Falcon posted:It also has to cycle through messages in a certain order, so you could get a message that Lana is injured (and her fleeing is a fail condition), but the game doesn't tell that the attack she just ate was a big one and also knocked her into critical HP so you'd better hop your rear end over there RIGHT NOW. I've had the game go [Character] is in trouble! > [Character] is in danger! > [Character] fled! MISSION FAILED in back to back textboxes. I hadn't considered that but I totally see it now. I did the mission where you have to fight Ganondorf at the temple of time yesterday and the text-boxes were so backed up that I'd killed him before the message even popped up saying I should go fight him.

Parker Lewis posted:I loved Dragon's Dogma on PS3 but gave up after maybe 10 hours because its framerate was so bad. Always meant to pick it up on Steam but never got around to it even after it started dropping to $8 frequently on sales. Someone else probably knows the history better than me, but I believe the "Dark Arisen" version fixed a lot of the performance issues. I played through about 75% of it on PC a while back and remember it being pretty smooth overall.

Dragon's Dogma is an extremely good video-game with an unfortunately lame setting. A game with the gameplay of DD and the world of Kingdoms of Amalur would be

I keep going to my Switch, wanting to play a 3D Zelda other than BotW, only to face the harsh reminder that they have not ported Twilight Princess HD or Wind Waker HD. Why Nintendo.

Jim Silly-Balls posted:Good news, the switch port of NSMBU not only runs at a locked 60fps, it’s higher res than Wii U and has more graphical options cranked up I'm a big fan of platformers but man I just really can't stand the look of the NSMB games. It's so bizarre to me because Nintendo games almost always have some unique visual flair to them and then you've got NSMB which, to me, looks like it could be one of those "SUPER MARIO 1-1 MADE IN UNREAL ENGINE" videos.

I think the biggest issue is how nothing looks cohesive. The background and foreground don't blend together at all, platforms don't align in a natural way so it looks like it was put together piece-meal in a level editor.

By the time you make it to Ganon's Castle Master Mode is indistinguishable from normal in terms of difficulty.Over There posted:The castle was cool It really is. For my second playthrough I really dug into the Castle and tried to explore as much as possible and there's just a hell of a lot to it. It's a really well-realized setting.

KingSlime posted:Is Master Mode worth it or is it a giant slog? It's kind of cool at first. Mostly enemies just have a ton of hp and do a ton of damage compared to standard mode so you need to be more creative when taking camps and the like. For example, I was trying to take one of those skull bokoblin camps but if I took them head-first they would wipe me every time. So I would stealthily climb to the top of the skull then jump off and fire a ton of bomb arrows into the entrance to soften them up as much as possible. Still, the game just isn't designed around consistent challenge, and Master Mode throws gear at you much faster than standard so the difficulty curve ends up not being all that much different once you make it to the mid-game. I found it to be a nice excuse to replay a great game though.

Okami would be a way better game if they had some kind of text-speed option. Getting two lines at a time drip-fed to you over the course of 5-10 minute cutscenes is brutal.

Picked up Donut County on a whim last night. It's pretty cute and has a really charming aesthetic (although obvi it borrows heavily from Katamari). I don't really think it deserves quite the amount of hype though. It's an entertaining concept but never quite reaches the scale I want from it, plus I played it for like 2 hours and I think I'm about to complete it so it's pretty dang short too. Worth $14? Eh, I'd say wait for a sale. Still, not a bad way to pass a couple hours.

The Bloop posted:Hookshot as a very late game/post game item maybe. Yeah this is probably a good solution. The upgrades to the 4 dungeon abilities you get in the DLC basically make you a superhero anyways, it's not like they're opposed to upgrades that break the game.

There are definitely genres that other people feel this way about that I don't, so no judgement, but I honestly can't get enough platforming. Especially with a game as good as Mario Odyssey, if there's content I'm gonna play it. I can't imagine setting it down when there's still stuff left to do, it's like comfort-food for me.

RE4 (and then Dead Space after it) did a really good job of maintaining tension without making you feel weak. You're constantly drop-kicking, blowing up heads, slashing giants, but there's still that feeling that at any moment something could go wrong and you could be overwhelmed. I honestly don't know how they did it, it's a crazy tight balancing act, but it's really impressive to me how well it succeeds as both an action game and a horror game.

Rupert Buttermilk posted:I have two complaints: The sliding block puzzle. I look it up every single time, because I hate sliding block puzzles. Also, Krauser. You're made to think that, oh, he must've been in an earlier game. Complaint 1: Totally agreed. gently caress sliding block puzzles. But Krauser is incredible and the way he forcibly inserts himself into the absurd Resident Evil lore is absolutely the best part.

The devs of RE4 were visionary evidenced by them programming in a response to looking at Ashley's undies. A leap in technology that was not matched until GOAT Nier: Automata.
