So I won a $500 dollar Best Buy gift card a while ago and tonight I'm spending it on a Switch and some games. Tell me which games I should buy. I'm leaning towards Kirby, Zelda, Paper Mario or Monster Hunter cause it's not out on PC yet.

Dunno why is that just a switch bug or is it a whole game thing? cause fast travel is already really loving weird on pc too but there seems to be certain things you need to do to make it work.

Are Xenoblade 1/2 direct sequels? Basically what I'm asking is do I need to play one to play the other and if not is 2 better than 1? I need something to itch my RPG fix after I already smashed through Earthbound for like the 20th time. Or should I do Triangle Strategy or Octopath Traveler?

So I ended up getting Triangle Strategy and I'm only after the first battle and I switched voice language from english to japanese like right away and it's so much better. Jiraiya from Naruto's voice actor is the first enemy you fight.

Upsidads posted:Triangle Strat has a very good political intrigue story with bad voice work and a great hard but fair difficulty. Like I said earlier, turn on Japanese voices at the beginning and don't even bother checking out the English VAs, they're loving atrocious.

Harrow posted:Honestly there are only a couple bad English voices IMO, and some really good ones (Frederica's actress gives a fantastic performance when the story gets going, for example). She's one of the one's I hated in the beginning but good for her if it gets better as it goes.

I was a manager at Gamestop about 15 years ago and I got fired in part because of my insistence on taking this one guy's trade ins that had awesome custom covers, like really high quality fan art. my district manager would get pissed off every time he came in and saw like 30 of them up in a special section i setup for them and told me to stop taking them in. i smiled and nodded every time for about 5 months before i got the boot for being an hour late because of DST

Smirking_Serpent posted:so apparently the devs have confirmed that the Switch version of KOTOR 2 is currently unable to be completed, there's some bug like halfway through. i said it in the game glitches thread but i knew there were gonna be issues with it when they said that the "unofficial" patch was gonna be released at a later date. the game was basically unplayable without it on PC

lunar detritus posted:The one reason I have been avoiding high refresh rate monitors, they blow up GPU budgets and once you get used to them ruin almost every other gaming platform. Eh, I'm totally fine playing on my switch after swapping from my 165hz monitor. It's only when the switch lags and you get frames dropped that it's noticeable. The 4k to 1080 is the drastic part.

I'm pretty sure that's exactly why every time I've tried to revisit FF8 since the PS1 era I've bounced off it hard. I hate Triple Triad and I hate it in FF14 too

ilitarist posted:I play on Standard maps no problem. Turn processing does take some time, but it doesn't feel that bad cause while the turn rolls the game allows you to scroll the map, check out city stats and reports etc. load times are long as hell on my civ4 game on my bleeding edge pc so makes sense the one thing you get used to playing civ games is that it takes like 2 minutes to load your game no matter what you're playing it on

Mierenneuker posted:...but enough said of No Man's Sky launch for PC and PS4 in 2016. yeah but they did end up adding it in, and fairly quickly, so not really getting your point. NMS is legit good now. do I think it'll be good on the switch tho? eh, if you haven't played it on an actually powerful system, maybe? i don't know what they're gonna do to make it play well on the switch cause it can be fairly graphically intensive during parts of it and i've never tried it on potato mode on my pc so i haven't seen that. also i don't know what patch they're planning on releasing the switch version on cause if it's not like at least around the 8th one, it's gonna be kinda rough

Detective No. 27 posted:Agreed completely. Reviews complained about the cutscenes being too long and having too much dialogue, but that was explicitly part of the marketing and how it was presented to be during the Nintendo Directs when they unveiled it. The complaints would have been like dinging a visual novel for not having enough first person shooting. it would be totally different if people were like "yeah go ahead and read about how to get the secret ending and do it the first time so you can get the whole story on one playthrough" but to actually suggest you skip the story is being a philistine e; this wasn't meant to be an attack on the person who i originally quoted, but one against the argument itself. idk if you do it without VA cause some of them are loving awful and yeah, there are some games where the plot is absolute rear end and you dont need to worry about it but there are also games where the story is the whole point.
