I’ve bought a S-charge but I don’t really get when it will charge. Sometimes it seems to do it and sometimes not. And it doesn’t appear to be an on button?

Castor Poe posted:The fiancée and I are considering getting Overcooked. Is the game playable and enjoyable with only 2 players? If not, is there a good alternative on the eshop? We're kinda sick of Minecraft and Stardew Valley, we'd like to sink our teeth into something different. Me and my partner have had a great time with both toad and donkey Kong. I can also recommend LA Noire, it’s fun to take turns examining the crime scene and helping each other with finding evidence and interrogating suspects.

pixaal posted:They are very different games. Dark Souls is about learning to properly position and move your character. Dragon's Dogma is about becoming insanely powerful and steam rolling everything. You can definitely sorta outlevel content in DS. Especially when it comes to upgrading your weapons. I played through DS remastered for the first time ever last month and found it very good and enjoyable, but you kinda have to like to learn combat patterns and read up on where to put your souls when you level up.

Just bought super blood hockey. Not sure if it’s actually good but I’ll support any hockey game on the switch.

I’ve never played a MH game before and I didn’t like (or understand) it when I tried the demo. But I picked it up on a whim after completing dark souls remastered. It took a couple of hours of playing and reading up on all the different mechanics but I am just totally in love with it now. So many different weapons, styles, armors and monsters, I up to almost 35 hours now and I think I’ve hardly scratched the surface.

Frankston posted:My girlfriend has expressed some interest in playing video games with me. Can anyone recommend some fun co-op games we can enjoy? The majority of my library is all single player stuff. I’ve played through donkey Kong, Mario odyssey, Harry Potter LEGO and Rayman with my SO and she’s liked them all. But they’re quite platform-y so if she’s not that good with timing and coordination they may not be as fun for her. We’ve also played LA Noire and Thimbleweed Park and alternated with using the controller but with both of us helping out with finding clues and interrogating. So those two are an alternative if she likes stories and puzzles.

Fancy Hat! posted:I'm interested in Pillars of Eternity! It's basically on the level of those Baldur Gate type games, correct? Curious how it runs/controls on console. Me as well but I’m holding off on buying it for now. Some on reddit have reported that the text and icon displays bug out quite often. The company that ported the game seems to be aware of the issues at least.

Mahoning posted:So I'm like 3 hours into DragonQuest XI's demo and I genuinely like it. I like the vibe of a turn-based RPG (I also liked the Octopath demo).....and I never grew up playing RPGs at all. I wish I had played them earlier in life when I had way more time on my hands and could stay up all night playing video games. This is me as well. I’ve never really played a JRPG and I was a bit turned off by the anime vibe but I am hooked. So chill, so fun. I wasn’t planning on buying it at all but now I’ll get it on release day probably.

rotaryfun posted:Anyone else playing Pillars of Eternity? I feel like I messed up stepping into that game on the switch for the first time. Probably should have gotten that on PC. I thought their latest patch fixed that but apparently not. Many on Reddit have reported the exact same bug. I've been wanting to buy PoE since it was released on the Switch because I loved it on the PC but I keep hearing about horrible, game-breaking bugs so I'm just gonna wait it out until they have patched them all out.

nachos posted:How is the switch port for blasphemous? I have been burned once by bloodstained, never again Quite good. Been playing for 10 hours, almost all handhold, and it’s generally been smooth. I have had some instances of frame drops though, primarily when you use an ability and it hits many enemies at the same time. But overall it’s great.

Oscar Wild posted:Anyone play "Blasphemous". Its a mediocre metrodvania. The art style is pretty neat for a teenage gothic type. The platforming is a little floaty and it unfortunately has some pretty demanding areas. Not Hollow Knight white palace hard but the character isnt as precise as I would want them to be. The combat is pretty cool. It seems like a sold B to B- kind of game. Not worth adding to a huge backlog but if you want some very metal arty platforming you could do worse. A couple of us a have been discussing it in the game of the month thread https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3898614

Amppelix posted:I haven't played enough to actually say anything about the combat other than "it exists" but what's worse about this complaint is that combat is like, the lowest of the lows on the list of things that make Luigi's Mansion good. It's never been unenjoyable but that's about the best thing you could say for it. How does its replayability seem compared to like Mario, donkey Kong etc?

Tesh posted:What was the goon consensus on Blasphemous? I love the art style and see it's on sale currently so it's tempting me I liked it, mostly for its atmosphere and art, especially some of the bosses. The actual fighting and platforming is okay though somewhat tedious at times. I know that some people hated that all spikes are insta-kill and easy to miss by 1 pixel and die. Anyhow, I got some 15-20 hours out of it at full price and was very happy I bought it so I’d recommend it.

mancalamania posted:Any hints for the Floor 6 boss in Luigi's Mansion 3? I'm sure I'm missing something but I tried vacuuming its tail, vacuuming it's shield/armor, plungering the shield/armor, and none of it works. I see the target on his chest that presumably needs to be plungered but the shield is always blocking it. If it is the knight you need to flash it when it attacks, just before it hits you. It’s all about the timing.

Cartoon Violence posted:Oh yeah that's a good question. Is Paladins good? Does it use gyro aiming? I quit all Blizzard games and am looking for competitors that scratch the same itch but have dev teams that are not trash people. Does the Switch version have people screaming slurs in your ear because you picked a hero they didn't want you to pick in casual play? I haven’t played it a lot - 10-ish hours - but it’s decent for a free game and there is gyro aim. No voice chat as far as I know. I want to pick a lengthy game that will keep me occupied for some weeks. I’ve already completed DQ11 so now I am choosing between Switcher and Divinity 2. Anyone feel like weighing in?

More in the mood for a tactical RPG, thanks!

keirharder posted:How’s divinity 2 in handheld? Not too fussed about graphics quality but I’ve never played the game and have a lot of long train trips coming up. Thinking of picking it up, either that or Pokémon maybe. It’s great. I am 10 hours into it and it runs smoothly even in handheld. I’ve had one time when the FPS dipped because the entire screen was repeatedly filled with explosions but other than that there’s been no problems. The text is easy to read as well and the controls are intuitive. It eats power though. 2 hours of gaming and my battery went from 100 to 30%.

Thinking of picking it up, either that or Pokémon maybe. I recommended divinity 2 earlier and it’s still a great game but I have noticed that while it ran flawlessly in act 1, in act 2 it has crashed while fighting several times. It seems like Larian is aware of the issue and have submitted a patch that will hopefully fix it but just so you know.

I think I got around 15-20 hours of playtime out of the base game, but I didn’t find every weapon, 100% each fight etc so you can probably get more out of it if you are so inclined. The dlc took me like 5-10 hours.

Wildtortilla posted:How frequently do you change areas? I can live with that kind of load time if I'm going to be in an area for a while and not just passing through lots of tiny areas. Not that often really, most of the areas are seamless except some caves and dungeons. It’s more if you have to reload a lot after dying in difficult fights.
