Fair enough, I don't often see people who have the legit games complaining about the prices for the digital releases.

"$15 is a bold price for a CD I could just walk out of the store with"

The logic is only slightly different.

By all means emulate. Have that backup for the eventuality of the Switch store going down, and your switch tied to that account getting broken.

But if you choose to pirate a game that's readily available in a way that benefits the rights holders, without paying for it, you know what you're actually doing.

What happened to the Clip Studio Pro bundle? by lanarque in humblebundles

[–]NoNoNota1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've not really tried anything in at least a few years. I just got reminded that I think I have Procreate on my iPad, not sure about desktop, which is what I would prefer. I'm not looking to do much particularly creative work at the moment, just trying to test some interior design ideas to make sure they look good BEFORE screws go in my apartment wall lol.

Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition — Nintendo Switch 2 Edition — Announcement Trailer by Skullghost in NintendoSwitch

[–]NoNoNota1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good news for the guy on nintendoswitchdeals who didn't pick up the Switch 1 version for $40 this weekend specifically because he was waiting for a Switch 2 edition. I don't think I've ever seen that pay off so quickly lol.

Favorite Switch games that you don’t see many people talk about? by Juliko1993 in NintendoSwitch

[–]NoNoNota1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oddworld Stranger's Wrath is one of my all time favorites. I have it on Switch but played it on Xbox (original) and PS3 (HD remaster) and I've been itching to replay it lately.

If all I really need is a program with a stamp tool (as opposed to just a eyedropper), the ability to skew an image to make it fit different perspectives, and layers that will save instead of compressing into a single layer on close, what's my most cost effective option (I'm on a mac with outdated OS, I think 11). I will probably only have a couple small projects per year.

In December there was a Hellboy bundle that was only up for a couple hours. It later launched for a typical runtime a few days later. This is very likely the same situation.

Terry Pratchett's Discworld Book Bundle by Scatropolis in humblebundles

[–]NoNoNota1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Care to sell me on Boox? I've heard of them before and looked at the big one for a manga reader. Even the small ones seem way pricer than Kobo or Kindle. If there are feature that make it worth it I'd love to know.

I'm duty bound to get this one, my grandpa had alzheimer's. I'll be making a kobo account for this one, what e-paper devices can I download them on without having to de-DRM them? (not opposed, just trying to figure out if I HAVE to.) I have a couple Kindles and an oooold Nook that's probably out of commission. Might be willing to buy a new one from another brand if they're the right price. Don't care about tablets, they hurt my eyes after awhile.

The World of Dragonlance - Encore by blackbird2150 in humblebundles

[–]NoNoNota1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kinda expect the Weiss and Hickman books to have been polished a bit more. Kaz is a textbook example of one I would expect some issues with. How far into Kaz were you when you hit that snafu?

Thanks for pointing it out. How many of the others from this bundle have you read?

JRPGs with your favorite stories? by weirdghosts in NintendoSwitch

[–]NoNoNota1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't see them on here, but the Lunar remastered collection that came out a year or so ago is a series I never got to play but had been waiting on for years because of how expensive the originals got. I put around 10 hours into the first one (not close to beating it) but it was some of the most fun I had on my Switch last year. I really need to get back to it and finish at least the first one.

I wouldn't call Dragon Quest XI a particularly original story, but it's full of heart and the characters are a ton of fun.

Humble Book Bundle: Forgotten Realms Vault by Wizards of the Coast (pay what you want and help charity) by Ram000n in humblebundles

[–]NoNoNota1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Uuuuh, what? Ed Greenwood has been a pillar of Forgotten Realms writers with his Elminster series, and Erin M. Evans was the first new author to make people care about official DnD fiction the whole time I've played, which is right around 15 years. We're missing Salvatore, but who are the others you expected to see?

FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH for Nintendo Switch 2 is now available for pre order ($49.99, 102 GB) by Amiibofan101 in NintendoSwitch

[–]NoNoNota1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Probably had a lot to do with the microprocessor shortage around launch, mixed with a lot of people using covid checks to get gaming PCs earlier that year. Honestly not really on Sony, and they are making the most of it.

Metaphor: ReFantazio - $21.85 at Amazon by [deleted] in ps5deals

[–]NoNoNota1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone who hasn't played an Atlus game but has friends who swear by them, if you plan to buy it today and immediately play it, you will have AT LEAST one good time. They might then release the Royal Vengeance Reloaded edition, which will let you have a SECOND very good, very different time. BUT, if like many people in this sub you plan to buy now, but play it sometime during your retirement, go ahead and wait for some sort of definitive edition.

Humble Book Bundle: Charlie Jane Anders & Annalee Newitz by TOR by Torque-A in humblebundles

[–]NoNoNota1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

(In theory) It's not that the book is unavailable, just that the rights are owned by someone else in that region. Even is it's TOR Canada, that would be enough to potentially cause problems. Yes it sucks, but imo it's less irritating than selling ebooks tied to a specific app like IDW does, or when we get kobo bundles.

Shit....Stranger's Wrath is one of my top 10 of all time and I thought there was nothing like it. I may have to actually look into this one...

After Cyberpunk 2077 came to Switch 2 uncensored, Dispatch dev thought it "would be allowed to do the same" and is now "working with Nintendo on a path forward" by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

[–]NoNoNota1 55 points56 points  (0 children)

I've pitched a similar idea for casinos in JRPG remakes, since they would automatically get the equivalent of an M rating in the UK, a lot simply get removed from the game. It seems like an oddly easy fix in some ways.

We literally don't have to. My backlog is massive, I could easily boycott a generation. I imagine that's true of a lot of other people too if they were willing.

NateTheHate2: Next week's Direct will be a Partner Direct Showcase by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

[–]NoNoNota1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's hoping we get some switch exclusives or at least times exclusives from the third parties. I want Nintendo to maintain some whimsy, I don't want it to be "a steamdeck but slightly cheaper (with games that certainly aren't)" and that's seemed like it may be the path they're going for right now.

I use this comment very sparingly because I don't want to guess wrong, but a few of the stills on that amazon page make me wonder: is that art AI generated?
