flamingmongoose, do gaming w Outer Wilds and BOTW/TOTK

I desperately want to play Outer Wilds but that would involve spending money on modern machine

julianh,

You have a console? It’s available on most of them (and eventually the switch… probably…)

flamingmongoose,

Yeah just a switch haha. They announced that port a good while ago and not a lot has come of it

if you ever end up getting a steam deck, outer wilds runs well on it. you won’t get 60fps on highest settings or anything but I played through the whole thing with the frame rate limited to 45 and it was a great experience.

BobKerman3999,

Try on the free Nvidia streaming thing, if you have a fast enough internet

We know we aren’t an advanced civilization because we don’t have a green or blue aesthetic and goat features.

For some reason all fighting game communities seem to be split down the middle between friendly, chill people who want to help you learn and complete, uncompromising psychopaths

@zbych@szmer.info avatar

Polecam poszwendac sie po ciuchach, jak ma sie chwile. Od krótkich spodenek, przez spodnie, koszule, marynarkę po kapelusz lniany udało mi sie wyhaczyć. Oczywiście nie jest to jednorazowy szybki zakup, tylko loteria:) No i za całość pewnie wyszło 5 dyszek. No i może olxy i allegro?

lysy,

nie lubię się szwendać, w lumpeksach nie widziałem lnianych rzeczy jak łaziłem.

Poproś ludzi, którzy chodzą często po lumpach (a są tacy, którzy to po prostu lubią i traktują jako hobby. Niektórzy nawet wpisują to sobie w opisie na tinderze :D), żeby Ci kupili to, czego potrzebujesz. :)

lysy,

Nie znam takich :(

ok, czyli do Zielonej Góry dołączam Wrocław za tydzień, jako kolejny przystanek wycieczki autostopem ^_^

pieceofcrazy, do gaming w I Played Road 96 AND the Prequel -- Yes, They Made a Road 96 Prequel (review, minor spoilers)

I think I only saw a trailer when it was announced. It looked kina horrible to be honest, but after reading this I’m imagining it like one of those games that are kind of bad by usual standards and that you can’t really recommend to anyone like you would recommend any other game, but that is just so unique and special in its own way that it sticks with you. Something like Pathologic maybe, but without the depression

Lowbird, do gaming w Outer Wilds and BOTW/TOTK

Oi, careful with the Outer Wilds spoilers. That game is the last game people should know anything about before playing fpr the first time.

PLAY OUTER WILDS

Okay but like whats the game about? What do you do?

I CAN’T TELL YOU JUST PLAY IT BRO.

But like, how do I know if it’s even the type of game I will li-

JUST PLAAAAAAAYYYYY IIITTTTTTTT

Ive seen so many posts by people who trashed the game after not even getting to the start of the time loop, calling it a bad walking sim with nothing to do.

Modern games have programmed people to be incurious and intellectually lazy

NuPNuA,

I agree that a lot of modern games hold the hand too much, but I found Outer Wilds to be the opposite for me, too obtuse and open to get a grip on the gameplay loop. If you dig that, more power to you, for me it was too much.

Megaman_EXE,

I tried outer wilds on gamepass. I went in blind knowing absolutely nothing. At first I thought the graphics made it look like a generic unity indie game. I didn’t like how the jumping worked. I was so close to closing the game but I figured “I haven’t even gotten past the tutorial. I should at least give it a try.”

Oh man. The second you complete the tutorial and you are set free to play I had the best “oh holy shit” moment I’ve had in years. It’s still not everyone’s cup of tea but I absolutely loved it. I hope they make a second.

I gave it the honest try myself and just didn’t have fun. I went to a couple different planets, died in some weird gravity reversing situation a couple times, died to the loop a few times, etc. It was neat but wasn’t for me. I can see how people would get really into it though.

Addfwyn,

Same. I tried once, bounced off because I just hated how the ship flew. Gave it another honest shot recently, found a couple of the explorers but really wasn’t enjoying it. Ended up watching the rest in a Let’s Play. Honestly not a bad way to experience it if the gameplay is just not vibing with you.

It’s surprising because “ancient progenitor civilization” is one of my favourite tropes in media, but this one really just did not do it for me.

dino,

I bought it, tried it for about 30 minutes. And got motion sickness…didn’t ever again. :/

noodle, do gaming w What's the most toxic game community you know of?
@noodle@feddit.uk avatar

It’s been years since I ever played CoD but my experience was that it is basically a racial abuse simulator with an FPS in it.

Nowhere near as bad, but I was shocked how intensely elitist and gatekeeperish Hollow Knight’s community can be. I’d already finished the game when I found the sub on Reddit but damn they are mean to beginners!

Conyak, do gaming w I finally got a Switch! What now?

It might help if you give some examples of games you like. I’ve been playing Dead Cells and love it. It’s a side scrolling rouge like. Some others I would recommend are Metroid Dread, both of the Ori games, and Hades.

A lot of people will disagree but I did not care for BotW to the point that I didn’t bother with TotK. Not saying you won’t enjoy them but that’s a lot of money to spend on something you may not like. Nintendo does not do refunds after all.

E-Shop is very feature poor compared to Steam. I use Deku Deals to get notified when something I want goes on sale. They offer a pricing history as well to gauge how often a title has price cuts.

TheOakTree,

Hijacking top comment:

Thinking of picking up Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen ($4.99), Okami HD ($9.99) and maybe Spyro Reignited Trilogy ($15.99) from the eShop.

Anything I should be wary about regarding performance on the Switch?

Caramel,

Just remember the handheld usually runs in a lower rez and you’ll be fine :)

TheOakTree,

Well of course, I’m not expecting it to run like my desktop lol

atocci, do gaming w I finally got a Switch! What now?

My most played games are Breath of the Wild, Animal Crossing New Horizons, Pokemon Violet, and now Tears of the Kingdom. And Mario Kart 8 Deluxe but I feel like that one's more of a multiplayer experience. Nothing else comes close to those on the Switch for me and I can recommend all of them.

TheOakTree, do gaming w I finally got a Switch! What now?

Used physical copies for older flagship titles (SM Odyssey, BoTW, etc.) can sometimes be found for cheap online! I bought most of my favorite games this way, even if I owned the digital copy.

JazzGRaffe,

Pointing out on top of this that physical carts are pretty future proof if your console/account go sideways: you can resell them when you are done, or give them to a friend. They are usually cheaper second-hand than it will ever be on sale if you don’t mind a missing case. I find people selling collections on local online markets at respectable prices regularly. Be careful with physical pokemon scarlet/violet copies though: defunct/dead on arrival cartridges were shipped to the USA.

As for the fav games: animal crossing new horizons is what I got the switch for and it was a blast. Next most hours played are BOTW, Skyrim, TOTK, and ironically Kirby and the Forgotten Land (and other Kirby games, if you have a buddy to play with).

ConsciousCode, do gaming w I finally got a Switch! What now?

I had a surprising amount of fun with the Dragon Quest games, DQ Builder I/II and Treasure Hunters. Squeaky clean polish and very focused, nearly arcade-like gameplay. Don’t forget the various Marios and Kirby Forgotten Land.

Cadence of Hyrule is a bit of a weird departure but very fun and replayable with a kickass track. You can get the Binding of Isaac physically, as well as the Ori collection which is incredible and Stardew Valley. Moonligher is a bit repetitive but that can be good comfort. Celeste, if you’ve never played it, is potentially life changing if you struggle with perfectionism and/or anxiety.

For a very obscure digital game, Chasm was an amazing randomized full-length metroidvania.

xorels, do gaming w I finally got a Switch! What now?

Thank you everyone for the suggestions! I’ll be checking these all out

followthewhiterabbit,

The Metroid Prime Remake was beautiful to see on my Switch. Really appreciated playing through that. I had to have a online walkthrough on hand, but that’s just me!

Well worth the price.

Dominic, do gaming w I finally got a Switch! What now?

Nintendo’s exclusives are where the Switch really shines. Unfortunately, they’re expensive. I’ll echo the DekuDeals recommendation for finding sales.

Other Nintendo titles that are worthwhile, aside from the obvious Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom and depending on your tastes:

  • Super Mario Odyssey
  • Mario Kart 8
  • Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
  • Animal Crossing New Horizons
  • Splatoon 3 (2 is good too, but 3 is an improvement and more active)
  • Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze
  • Pikmin (the whole series)
  • Metroid Dread
  • Metroid Prime Remastered
  • Fire Emblem Three Houses
  • Pokemon Legends Arceus

There are also tons of great indie games that play well on Switch (especially handheld):

  • Hades
  • Dead Cells
  • Hollow Knight
  • Slay the Spire
  • Into the Breach
  • Shovel Knight
hotchurkey,

I’ll add Stardew Valley for indie titles as well. I have hundreds of hours between both switch and PC, and the Switch is a great platform for it.

limeaide,

Katana Zero and Hotline Miami are also great games

ObiGynKenobi, do gaming w I finally got a Switch! What now?

At most you’re gonna get like $10-15 off on most 1st-part titles. Better off going physical and buying used, if you want to save money.

As for games, Fire Emblem: Three Houses and Luigi’s Mansion 3 are great. Link’s Awakening, also. Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom are good too, but overrated imo.
