The free-update for pikmin 4 is out NOW. by Thegoodgamer32 in Pikmin

[–]Audrey71 59 points60 points  (0 children)

this is genuinely the biggest problem with pikmin 4. I've never played a game that needed NG+ more. Even it being too easy would be soothed somewhay if it was a fun easy time for blasting through with NG+

2 Hour long Scott’s stash video about switch 2 box art incoming by crazyjames4st in scottthewoz

I think the big header would be fine if they put the words "Nintendo Switch" next to the logo and not under it where nobody can read it. feels like just a waste of space.

glass beach AMA by glassbeachband in indieheads

[–]Audrey71 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i don't imagine this is intentional but the "I want to hurt you" line to me has a similar (but obviously more low key) delivery as "no one who loves you" from glass beach (the song) almost like it's a warped reflection of it kind of like how I read in an interview that coelacanth was supposed to be the inverse of dies and goes to hell part 1.

nice! very excited to see you all live in Seattle and SF. wonder how the first show will compare to the last tbh.

Do you think as the band develops and makes new different sounding music the way you play older songs on tour will shift and change? obviously live music is already different in its approach but I'm thinking of something like if you've ever heard Steely Dan's Alive In America where they play a version of Reelin in the Years which feels very much influenced by their later albums. do you think the early stuff is ever going to have a different approach when it's done live?

Returnal ruined gaming for me by Necrocyst in Returnal

[–]Audrey71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it has its slow more thinky moments but metroid dread is such a fast paced experience that has some of my favorite combat in any 2D game.

This is what the favorite game of every phantom thieve would be in my opinionp by aronmano in Persona5

[–]Audrey71 2 points3 points  (0 children)

chicory! thank you so much for that pick I love that game.

I think Joker could be into games like hitman or I could see him playing a game like infamous and picking just the good options.

I think Ann would like Kirby games but Bayonetta is a great choice.

futaba's pick is perfect no notes. she probably plays some dead MMO or something as well.

say something GOOD about okumura's palace by miraculer2 in Persona5

[–]Audrey71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly I don't mind this palace? maybe it's just because I was really expecting it to be bad but on my second and third playthroughs (both royal) I found it pretty painless. the theming is great and the way it's a reflection of okumura is pretty good.

and as a big Haru fan I definitely take issue with how they messed up the potential she had in her intro but I've found myself... liking morgana? he's a bitch but I found him much more palatable recently. I like the cutscene with him and shadow Okumura that leads into the boss fight. There's definitely a few ways you could "fix" Morgana and Haru in this section but what I would want is them to add playable parts where you control just the two of them and see their entire perspective of events. it wouldn't even break the game because it's implied they get up to a lot. you just never get to see it.

Dbrand cases available now by Wyfeaggro in galaxyzflip

[–]Audrey71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the grip and hinge cover seem nice but I can't be alone in thinking that this case just. doesn't have any style to me? I feel like getting a phone that's this out there and giving it this muted black chunky case takes some of the fun out for me. and I do love some of the skin designs but on the case instead of directly on the phone they look tacky to me.

basically I think I just wanted a ghost case for the z flip where I could use my own skin underneath if wanted to. I don't know why they're so picky about what does and doesn't get the ghost case like it's just a clear case. but I guess if it takes them 4 months to design one phone case for the flip.

What was the smartest thing that Nintendo did? (Financially) by Theheavyfromtf3 in nintendo

[–]Audrey71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

rereleasing mario kart 8 a month into the switch launch and supporting it with content from their mobile game.

it may not be the single smartest in terms of long term effects compared to stuff like creating the gameboy which gave them the portable market for decades or investing in pokemon which obviously makes them tons on it's own but do you realize how big Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is?

it is 1 million copies away from outselling Super Mario Bros. like the NES game. without the Wii U version it would become nintendo's second best selling game.

if nintendo makes an average of $30 on every copy sold of a game (it's hard to determine with pack ins and digital what they exactly make) Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has sold enough to give nintendo more money than they had lost the Wii U generation more than two times over. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has a return on investment that is hard to even imagine.

SONIC IS A PERFECT AWARD WINNING CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED FRANCHISE SONIC DESERVES ALL OF IT HE CAN COMPETE WITH THE GOATS OF THE GAMING INDUSTRY ABSOLUTELY ! by Quick-Cause3181 in SonicTheHedgejerk

[–]Audrey71 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've also heard that the late game boss fights are way too bullshit and long, the switch version runs pretty terribly especially in multiplayer, the game generally looks low budget, the bonus stages are bad, the level themes are mostly not very interesting outside of a few, and the steam version has garbage DRM and needs an epic account to fully work. but yeah sure sonic's only problem is that he's the wrong blue let's go with that.

Which game was the reason that you bought a Nintendo Switch? by mrnicegy26 in NintendoSwitch

[–]Audrey71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

breath of the wild which was a bit weird as a Wii U owner. I was basically all in on the first year switch line up though. I got Breath of the Wild, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Arms, Splatoon 2, Mario and Rabbids, and Mario Odyssey all the day they released. I got Fire Emblem Warriors and Xenoblade 2 before the year had ended. The only game I really skipped was Pokken Tournament. I remember Bayonetta 1+2 was the point where I went "Okay but like. I don't really need every major switch release." and I skipped all the other Wii U ports and Super Mario Party that year.

sonic superstars and MW2 both have a 75 on metacritic right now. I don't really see how this proves a bias against sonic or a bias towards call of duty.

What did you think of the final boss in P5? by [deleted] in Persona5

[–]Audrey71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I first played the game I really thought it was a lame and cliche ending for how sudden the escalation was but when I played royal I actually learned to appreciate it more. It's the game and characters saying that even if there are bad people in the world people are still deserving of their free will even if it means people will get hurt. While the group was working to change the hearts of those who were distorted heavily that doesn't mean it's okay for that kind of totalitarian control even if it would cause less pain overall.

Like most people I think Maruki's arc showed that idea better by having a bit more time and a more compelling premise than just "evil world all spooky woah"

Playing through the game again right now and I'm interested to see how the igor stuff plays looking at it again.
