I enjoyed it more solo. With friends enemies become a bullet sponge. On solo, they aren’t that bad.

That’s good to know. I played it on PS3, and not in a mood to play it again, but great to have it for anyone who hasn’t played it before, or may want to play it again.

Same here, had a rough week. Thinking about playing something that doesn’t require much thinking, maybe couple of games of F-Zero 99.

But its a tough game. I am not even crossing 50. My last game I came 64th.

How long are remaining Pikmin games? Have you finished the main campaign?

Horizon Chase 2 looked pretty nice. Not much into racing, but this one looks fun. May check it out.

Well, with Game Freak, voting for wallet isn’t going to work, as Pokémon is really big and they have big enough following that is just going to buy anything with Pokémon name on it. So all we can do is pray. 😛

Same here. Though, I still haven’t tried 13 Sentinels, so can’t say anything about their recent games. Loved their 2D brawler / RPG ones.

The way they shadow dropped Metroid Prime 1 Remaster, I am expecting them to release all 3 Metroid Prime games before 4. So, no release of Metroid Prime 2 remaster is a bit sad. It either means they aren’t going to release remasters of a whole trilogy, or that Prime 4 is much further away than we hope.

I think it’s kind of a genre revival. The genre was very under represented for a long time, so probably many devs started working on such games, and then ended up releasing them all close to each other.

Oh, it’s on my wish list, I just have a huuuuge wishlist and a backlog, so haven’t gotten around to it yet.

slimerancher, rok temu

I was thinking they could announced it and say it would be fully backward compatible, so it won’t effect their games sales, but it would still effect their hardware sales, so I guess you are right.

Metroid Prime 2 shadow drop would be nice.

I don’t know about Xbox, but drift issue is pretty common in PS5 controller too, and I recall reading that all companies uses sticks from same manufacturer.

Everyone online sings praises of ‘Hall-effect’ sticks, but no one (Sony / MS / Nintendo) is currently using them, probably because of higher cost.

If this works, this will probably solve the issue for Nintendo at least.

slimerancher, rok temu

Maybe because of all those “Patented” points. It’s possible Nintendo doesn’t want to be 100% dependent on them and want an in-house solution to their problem.

slimerancher, rok temu

Well, it’s for new type of sticks, and the design seems to be good for removing drift too.

slimerancher, rok temu

Theoretically, these could be better than Hall effect ones.

slimerancher, rok temu

I understand, I was saying maybe the new ones will be objectively better. More reliable at cheaper price. Won’t know until we see them in use.

slimerancher, rok temu

Ahan. And the hall effect sensor on joysticks have same accuracy?

I am planning to go for Xbox (actually, I am waiting for Pro version, the activision case brought up that there was plan for PS5 pro soon, so Xbox Series X Pro shouldn’t be far behind). While Starfield is a major reason, there is also Avowed coming up, and I have big hopes for that. Not to mention Fable.

Also, I’ve never had Xbox so want to play older franchises too. So, Xbox makes sense to me. Your requirements might be different.

slimerancher, rok temu

Avowed is Obsidian’s next game. It’s a bit Skyrim like from the trailers, but not as big.

Also, The Outer World 2 is also going to be Xbox exclusive.

But if you don’t care about any of these, then maybe Xbox will be an overkill. Maybe get it and then sell it aftewards, or if you don’t like to sell stuff, maybe ge Series S.

Well, they don’t work much, just just sit around building all day. Of course they can’t afford pants.

slimerancher, rok temu

Ah, that sounds fun. Will check out System Shock.

Oooh, a thief! Nice! You must have become pretty rich!

slimerancher, rok temu

4x bump sounds nice. And thanks for the info. I’ll add them to my wishlist.

slimerancher, rok temu

Thanks for the feedback. Will check them out.

I have always wanted to play Mirror’s Edge, but for some reason never got around to it. Will see if it I can find it somewhere cheap.

I have come to realise I like 3D Mario games much more than 2D ones. If they want to make different style of Mario games, I would choose 3D game and then instead of 2D Mario I would go with 3D world style games. Though, there are chances Wonder will change my mind.

I have been following Atelier games for quite a while now, but haven’t played any yet. Though Atelier Ryza is on very top of my wishlist.

I was also interested in playing the Marie Remake, but I didn’t know it has time limits. How forgiving are these limits? And what do you suggest I play first Marie Remake or Ryza?

When Big Man was first shown, it felt like he was the fan favourite, but since then it seems like Shiver is people’s favourite. What do you think?

slimerancher, rok temu

Thanks for your feedback! May start it once I am done with DQ XI.

slimerancher, rok temu

Wow, 100th run, and achievement completion, good luck!

With such a huge backlog I don’t often return to older games, but I can understand going back and clearing everything. Have fun!

slimerancher, rok temu

I have heard great things about the game. It’s on my backlog, but with all the games I am playing don’t want to start another one before finishing at least one or two of these.

slimerancher, rok temu

Oh yeah, that can be tough. The ones in the caves gave me trouble too, but I didn’t do all th shrines, so it wasn’t that big of an issue. Good luck!

I haven’t heard of any of these strategy RPGs, though if they are PC only, it makes sense. Will check them out.

slimerancher, rok temu

I have played most of the originals, but haven’t played any of the remake yet. I have heard great things about the remakes though, so may go through all of them sometime.

Do share you opinions once you have finished the game.

slimerancher, rok temu

Who have you chosen in splatfest?

slimerancher, rok temu

Well, I am sure all of them have their fans, it’s just the impression I got from different posts on reddit.

Anyways, good luck with the splatfest!

slimerancher, rok temu

I have heard great things about NMS, but I like generally games with ending, even with arcade game, I enjoy them more if there is some goal you can work towards. So, I feel maybe I won’t like it much.

I’ll still give it a try someday.

slimerancher, rok temu

Oooh, Team Shiver won! Better luck next time!

BTW how is your Fire Emblem going?

slimerancher, rok temu

Ah, cool.

slimerancher, rok temu

Oh yeah, Scarlet & Violet DLC is coming out. Or is it already out?

How are you liking it so far?
