TheMinions, do games w Sea of Stars – Throes of the Watchmaker DLC – Indie World Showcase 8.27.2024

Did they say free DLC? That’s surprising

sigmaklimgrindset,

It’s a kickstarter game, so I think paid DLC would be kind of a slap in the face of their community (in my opinion).

machinaeZER0,

They could give backers free DLC codes - pretty sure that’s what the Hollow Knight devs did for their backers. Heck, I’m pretty sure everyone who backed the HK Kickstarter is getting the sequel for free too because Silksong was originally pitched as stretch goal DLC for the first game.

Rival Schools is a strange omission given that Project Justice is in here, but otherwise, this collection is awesome! Capcom probably could have gotten greedy and charged more for the likes of MvC2 and Power Stone, but these collections are knocking it out of the park in value.

Doesn’t look like any updates or changes, and updated with “Save states and rewinds”. So why buy this instead of emulate the originals?

Mostly for the convenience of having all of the games on one platform?

CodexArcanum,

Eh, I might buy it on sale since I already have the other Castlevania collections on Switch. They’re convenient to play and I liked the portable games quite a bit. Ecclesia is probably my favorite in the series!

But yeah, also, emulating on Steamdeck would probably be better, but more work to set up and hunt down ROMs.

Speaking of Ecclasia, why did the DS have such great entries in several series? Days of Ruin is also my favorite Advance Wars game, and I feel like both were later games, darker in tone than previous, with actually good use of the touchscreen.

Why not buy a DSi and hack it or a DS with a flashcart then?

If we follow that logic then why bother bringing back old games?

For me it is always a win that people get to enjoy these older gems in their current console.

Woulda been hilarious if they found a way to include Tengen Tetris

Th3D3k0y, do games w Sea of Stars – Throes of the Watchmaker DLC – Indie World Showcase 8.27.2024

Solid base game, I should probably finish playing it instead of doing my normal of saving in front of the final boss and never playing again.

taiyang,

Yeah, especially since the game has a true ending that’s easy to give up on if you’re bad at finding conches. Can be intimidating, as I watch someone quietly quit at the final boss.

Aielman15,
@Aielman15@lemmy.world avatar

Honestly, the true ending is nothing to write home about. Sea of Stars is probably one of my favourite JRPG ever, but the entire last arc and both endings were a huge letdown.

taiyang,

Feels like they want to setup for something… But yeah, no spoilers.

mnemonicmonkeys,

They should have swapped a couple of the conch rewards, so you get a flimsy hammer at 60 and the true ending at 48. Pushing your players into an extra 5 hours of searching just kills the game’s pacing

taiyang,

I ended up just getting them for my wife, the funny thing is it took me like 20 minutes to get 20 once you know all the harder ones (like oasis). But yeah, I agree. Optional bosses made sense at least.

The year is 3256. The Switch 2 is delayed until next year. Mario Kart 8 is still selling like hot cakes. Phil Spencer XXIII promises games are coming to Xbox. Humanity has yet to create a better Tetris than Tetris DS.

B312,

You forgot to mention that the 6481st version of Skyrim is releasing soon

morphballganon,

And still no Half-Life 3

Deestan,

Skyrim is ported to RealityV3. It is still buggy. Hackers have successfully run Doom on a hydrogen atom. Gamers are shitting and yelling that someone put a Martian as a playable character in Red Dead Redemption MCMVII.

My favorite puzzle game of all time, but it’s not really Tetris.

Original GameBoy Tetris or bust.

Pacmanlives,

It’s funny you say Tetris DS I just pulled my DS out of storage just to play this game. It’s a damn perfect game

masterspace,

Tetris Effect: Connected was it. The Switch version is janky as hell but the real version that makes a PS5 run hot is one of the most sublimely beautiful and enrapturing games ever. And it’s still just Tetris.

Zahille7,

It’s like a rhythm game on shrooms, I love it.

PositiveControl, do games w Neva | Release Date Trailer | Coming October 15

I really loved Gris, I’m intrigued for this new game!

clearedtoland,

Gris and Monument Valley hold very special places in my heart. This looks really promising.

Edit: for the sake of discussion, after looking at some of the comments on the vid. Any other games that fit this niche? Someone said:

  • blasphemous
epicsninja,

I wouldn’t put Blasphemous in the same category as Gris or Monument Valley, but it might technically be in the same category as Neva. However, jn my opinion, that game sucks. I’d recommend Hollow Knight above it.

clearedtoland,

I’ve tried Hollow Knight 3x now and given up on it. I just can’t get into it for some reason. Loved Ori and the Will of the Wisps. HK goes in the bucket with Outer Wilds, universally loved games that didn’t click for me.

stringere,

It’s a different genre but take a look at No Redt for the Wicked by the same studio that did Ori and the Blind Forest and Ori and the Will O the Wisps. It’s an isometric souls-like game, so very different but absolutely well done. It was their passion project after the Ori games.

clearedtoland,

Yesss! I so wish I had picked that up during their launch sale when it was cheaper. I’ve been holding off cause of the comments while in Early Access but it looked phenomenal at launch. Seems like it just needs a bit of polish. It’s on my list for the next sale.

What happened to the co-op they were promising

sigmaklimgrindset,

https://sopuli.xyz/pictrs/image/69bca31f-350e-4edf-b382-180cc18f48f6.webp

Response from one of their devs two months ago on Reddit. They decided to make it 3 person co-op instead of 2.

TheMinions,

Oh that’s really exciting. My son and I both like this game but haven’t gotten past the end of the tutorial.

    I started Dawn of Sorrow on the Deck seems to be running perfectly. They replaced the magic seal touch screen garbage with a key combo, quick time event action instead which is an improvement. You are able to see both subscreens at once, the map and the status screen, depending on the view layout that you pick.

    Why nowadays everyone hates DS gimmicks?

    Is it the iPhone’s fault? At that moment the DS gameplay was the shit.

    Heck I would even say Metroid Prime Hunters Online was (and still is thanks to Wimmfi) one of the most fast paced shooters thanks to the touchscreen (easily the most fast paced one of the handhelds).

    The DS is my favorite handheld since I got my hands on one, and I’ll defend it until my grave.

    Geek_King, do games w Risk of Rain 2: Seekers of the Storm - Launch Trailer

    Oh shit yeah! I hope it’s good, I heard this expansion was 100% made by Gearbox, and not by Hopoo, so I’m a bit worried it won’t have the same great feel of prior content.

    I know that Gearbox worked directly with Hopoo on the prior expansion, but still… it’s Gearbox.

    simple,

    First impressions seem to be good, and having chef back is always good. Looking forward to playing it.

    @catalyst@lemmy.world avatar

    Hmmm maybe I should revisit this game. I got about 3/4 of the way and kinda ran out of steam on it.

    HeyJoe,

    SAME! I was at the underwater part, and idk why I stopped, but it’s one I would like to finish.

    BreadstickNinja,

    In my opinion, the game runs out of steam about halfway through, so the issue may not be on your end.

    It started really strong but it felt like a lot of the initial promise didn’t pay off.

    Still a decent game, maybe a 7/10. Just not as great as I hoped it would be after the first couple of hours.

    chiliedogg,

    Until you get pretty late in the game, it really suffers from a lack of variety in combat options, but by the time you get to the variety, you’re basically locked into just doing whatever moves interrupt the enemy or whichever super-move is warmed up.

    catalyst,
    @catalyst@lemmy.world avatar

    Agreeing with all these comments. The game started off really strong in my opinion, but it falls flat very hard after a certain point. Both from a writing perspective and in the combat variety.

    The interrupts were interesting to me because I hadn’t seen a mechanic quite like that before. But I suppose it’s true that once you see an enemy charging up there is essentially just one “correct” choice to make, which limits what choices you actually have and puts you on a rail.

    esc27,

    I’m not sure I even made it 1/10 of the way. I want to like the game but there was just nothing compelling me to continue or to pick it back up. The combat was especially disappointing. They captured the monotony of an rpg button masher without the ability to just zone out or multitask while playing. Also seems way to reliant on the moonerang.

    catalyst,
    @catalyst@lemmy.world avatar

    Sooooo many moonerangs. That was a big complaint of mine as well. The combat doesn’t really evolve much.

    Super fun games to randomize, by the way. Generates whole new maps, item uses, weapons, souls, and enemy stats. I particularly love that it randomizes the dialogue as well.

    CrayonRosary,

    That’s awesome! I love SotN rando and Bloodstained RotN, too. I never thought to look for randomizers for the DS games. Dawn of Sorrow is such a classic!
