Did these Danganronpa re-releases get a retranslation or something? I feel like the script is a little different than when I played it on PS4. They changed the font, too.

That’d be kinda cool if it turned out they did that. I don’t remember the previous version word for word obviously but I just feel like it’s a little different.

i would say start with 4, then play 5 and 6 if you want more of that style, then switch to 1, followed by 0 (but preferably 2 and 3) if you want more of that style

also revelations 1 and 2 both play kinda like a combo of old and newish re, and are good

so 4, 5, and 6 are one style; 1,2, and 3 are another style. what are those styles? i'm gathering 4, 5, and 6 are more actiony than horror? is there any horror in them at all? i'm mostly just looking to scare me and my girlfriend as much as possible.

on that note, what are other truly scary horror games are out there?

4 has some horror but 5 and 6 have almost none because they’re forced co op and having a janky AI the whole time or a friend to bullshit with kinda breaks any atmosphere

The more I play KOTOR, I think I still don't like it. This is likely the 5th time I've played the first 15ish hours of this game and I hate the combat, the equipment, everything.

I'll buy KOTOR2 day 1 if the port it, still, despite disliking it too.

Try playing the opposite side you've been playing, like if you're good then be evil and vice-versa.

I don't have any other good advice, just a hail mary shot more than anything. I like KOTOR1 but that's probably because I'm a goody two-shoes and am pretty much always a good guy in any non-Bethesda game (since Bethesda games don't give a gently caress if you're evil and being a murderous sneakthief killing everyone is the default best way to play Bethesda games).

1, 2, and 3 all have fixed cameras and pre-rendered environments and have a focus on horror and resource management. even saving the game is a limited resource (though this is more for mood, you'll never actually be in danger of running out unless you're doing a challenge run). 4 instead has an over-the-shoulder camera and a much bigger emphasis on action, to the point where you can suplex zombies. its tone is much more in line with cheesy b movie horror than what the older games are going for, and the whole game is very quotable (though the terrible script of the original re1 has its moments). 5 and 6 build on 4, and while they attempt more serious stories i think 4 ironically manages to be the scariest of the latter three regardless

I've never played 5 or 6 but the only horror in 4 is the 10 minute long quick time event cutscenes with nonsense inputs. I will never play that game again.

Those are predictable and manageable with excessive force. They are creepy though. There's a lot of good creepy going on in that game, but the QTEs are what truly horrify me.

Got my purple and orange joy-con and they look dope. The orange pops like crazy lol. That said, so yeah the left white joy-con that came with my switch is definitely loose/wobbly compared to the purple one. Still unsure if I caused the joy-con to become loose or if it just happened to be like that and I only noticed after Dread forced me to do all the shinesparks for 100% lmao. Is joy-con wobbliness something Nintendo covers under warranty? Or is it just a QC thing and it just happened to be within Nintendo's tolerance standards?

Their employees are actually paid more and work less hours per week than most Japanese or American gaming companies. Average salary is $80000, and average work day is 7 hrs 45 minutes. Most Japanese companies are 50-60 hours a week. Average length of employment is 13.5 years. If you are a lovely place to work you do not have that kind of retention. They have diversified their workforce a lot in the last couple decades, the article is talking specifically about percentage of managers specifically in the Japanese branch, which is a lot lower than it should be... a fact they disclosed themselves earlier this week after their own study, saying they want to increase this number.

Other parts like NoA or NoE are closer to 25~30%.

I opened the three ports pretty quickly, from my extremely brief look they seem solid. I do wish there was a way to import saves or at least say "look I have beaten these games on 3 different platforms, please just give me the extra modes and poo poo".

Ultimate Summer Camp is interesting, I've also only played for maybe an hour at most so far. The expanded cast and new story content and interactions are very appealing to me, and there's been some cool new art already. That said, I don't know if I'm really behind all the changes to the board game, it feels a little grindier. Also, it seems like the battling part doesn't have the dungeon crawling aspect and just focuses on battles, which is a shame because I quite liked that bit. That said, I'm only at the beginning, I dunno exactly how much story and content is gonna be in this silly non-canon game but I'm digging it on the whole. (I'm also a super fan of this series despite itself, see me playing through the games multiple times as mentioned above, and I'm pretty sure I have more hours in the V3 bonus modes than I did in the main game, so this game was hyper targeted at me, heh.)

Also haven't listened to the CD yet bc it's late here but I'm expecting good things, I'll report back later again I'm sure.

Hey I have a dumb switch question.

If I have a physical version of a game and I buy that same game in the eShop, would I still be able to use my old save files in the downloaded version?

Bonus points if you know the answer for games in different regions because I live in the US ended up with a european copy of mario kart somehow.
