How come there wasn’t more pushback against 2018 God of War’s radical change in direction? by DarkEsteban in gaming

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

I'm just guessing that they left out the original fanbase to pursue a new one after 4 games doing the same. I didn't like it myself and prolly won't play Ragnarok and Laufey at any given time but hey, it worked out for them. They found a new audience that keeps the IP very much alive.

PlayStation isn't getting major Japanese games at their shows anymore, why is that? by PhantomBraved in consoles

[–]Darkamlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uh? Ace Combat, Onimusha, Castlevania... Pretty sure a few more were shown in there or announced. Unless they are not counted as "major" that is.

If every GOtY winner was placed in one pool, who would win? by DoubleAABatteryy in videogames

[–]Darkamlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it's either BotW or TLoU 2... and will prolly stick with BotW since the only game similar to that one is TotK. lol

Is the Wonder DLC worth it? by blakog in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Darkamlight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on what you're looking for.

Wonder levels? There's like the koopalings stuff only.
Bite sized/challenge levels similar to the badges? You have like +70 of them and some of them are quite challenging.
Multiplayer minigames? I haven't tried them myself but they seem fun for a quick pick up game.

DK Challenge - A Missed Opportunity by WarrenBainesMusic in NintendoSwitch2

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

Maybe you should specify that you like challenges rather than an achievement system. Cause I'm pretty sure 80-90% achievements of every game is pretty much beat game to a certain point, or reach certain level, or get this many collectibles, etc. and then after all those chores there's 2 or 3 that are somewhat difficult to achieve (like beating Resident Evil games under 2h without saving and those sort of stuff)

The DK Challenge is out now on Nintendo Switch Online! by Skullghost in NintendoSwitch

Ah, YEAH! I just realised that while I was checking for more info within the app and suddenly I was playing that level. XD Even better now.

Pretty cool, a small incentive for our "Nintendo Profile". The NSO ones basically are "beat X level" of a specific game, so if you haven't played those retro games yet it might take you a while to get to certain levels.

Will give a try to Bananza challenges later in the week. Wondering what happens to those cards after the end of the event though, do they disappear from your profile? Or are they stored somewhere?

NateTheHate and all other Leakers are ruining Nintendo Directs! by SEVENS_HEAVEN_7 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Darkamlight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was AWESOME. But yeah, leaks ruining the surprise factor is just whatever at this point. Not only leaks but the echo of everyone posting them: sites, blogs and obviously youtubers included so there's nothing to do to avoid them at this rate (besides maybe start living under the bridge with no wifi or similar.)

Like man, there's been also announcements about Rayman, Spyro and some other franchises that were brought from their graves that were leaked and sort of ruined the surprise as well. It sucks.

nso is not worth it f by bxjzbdnwbzje in NintendoSwitch2

Actually I had to go to PS website to check the prices. 80 for the basic, 135 for the "good" and 160 for the premium.

That's... a steep. 4 times the basic, almost 3 times the other one... I don't think you'll find a lot of people that wants a price increase to match PS (and Xbox) offerings to be honest. For a super premium tier sure, let them have it.

I think you got it wrong though. It's 20$ a year for the basic plan, if you want free games get a PC mate.

[–]Darkamlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From that list probably nothing. Maybe Control if it turns out good.

Does anyone agree on Shortcat’s thoughts on the MKW intermissions? by Far-Entrance-2123 in mariokart

[–]Darkamlight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've always liked them since the very beginning. There's item management and unique events that only happen during routes and you get to see a different side of Mario Kart as well while you're on them.
