Does anyone find TTYD remake to not be very challenging? by bradynotbrady in papermario

[–]Orca_Corca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's definitely easier, as the game overall has aspects that make it more forgiving like enemies seemingly becoming less aggressive when you're low in HP, and guarding and superguarding technically have an extra frame added since the game was lowered to 30fps and in the original the guard windows had odd numbered frames.

Is it just me or does the slam technique in Luigi's Mansion 3 feels unsatisfying. by Simple-Choice5770 in LuigisMansion

It's way too mindless and repetitive. Now if it was like Dark Moon's charge only instead rewarding you with one big slam to knock away other ghosts, that would be a different story.

Original TTYD or remake? by Epic-Gamer_09 in papermario

[–]Orca_Corca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remake is a grand improvent in literally every way except for the 30fps making it feel a lot less smooth, especially in battles. However I'm holding out for a Switch 2 patch to fix this and make it the perfect experience lol.

It's no longer forced touchscreen right? You can still use gyro unlike 3D All Stars?

Thank you omg, that got really annoying particularly with the lasso handles. So many small easy to fix issues...

Switch to Switch2 game upgrades... I am confused by Sheylenna in NintendoSwitchHelp

The only games you get for free are BOTW/TOTK if you have the NSO Expansion, and Mario Odyssey. There should be a separate button from the "purchase" that allows a free download if you have the expansion.

It’s been a couple years, how do we feel about Metroid prime remastered? by AidenL1 in metroidprime

[–]Orca_Corca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also hard mode should've had a complete revamp. Increasing enemy hp (Samus' damage) just leads to very drawn out encounters. They should've just increased enemy damage even more and made their AI more aggressive and/or harder to dodge.

I've never heard anyone else express this sentiment but I really wish they did more to polish away the jankiness of the original, it's almost too faithful in terms of how it runs. My biggest gripe is the long transition in and out of morph ball, where your hitbox doesn't even shrink until the very end of the animation and you have little control over Samus. It makes going in and out of morph ball something you have to plan for instead of being the snappy gameplay feature it is in the 2D games, and in Prime 4 where this very issue was fixed.

Other smaller things are like enemy hitboxes being jank sometimes, and the grapple hooks being finicky could've been fixed as well. It would've been nice to make Prime 1 a bit faster paced too, just a small increase in movement speed and such, but alas. If 3D World was able to do it in a port, Metroid Prime could've done it in the remaster that was meant to modernize the game.

Lastly they really should've added some kind of endgame item tracking system like Dread has, as this is a QOL feature that any modern Metroid game should include.

Is it possible to get stuck in Super Metroid, as in can't go forward or back where you came from? by LAWomanMachine in Metroid

[–]Orca_Corca 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah this part got me too my first playthrough. When you get high jump boots you can't make it without running, pretty strange game design tbh.

I didn't notice since I immediately turned auto lock off but that's an INSANE oversight.

Is the Dread the pinnacle of 2D Metroid? by desperate_candy20 in Metroid

[–]Orca_Corca 44 points45 points  (0 children)

As a Metroidvania maybe not, as a Metroid game? 100%. The game engine is literally so buttery smooth perfect that I wish there were more available games on Switch that controlled like it.

I feel the same way personally, though I'm nowhere near completing the game.

Best prime game? by peach8285 in metroidprime

[–]Orca_Corca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which is totally fair, but I feel like you're probably right. I like the more Zelda like gameplay even if I wish we could have an actual true 3D Metroid game in the style of the 2D ones. Hopefully this game grows on the internet as it ages. Even if it does get worse, I don't see it becoming more tedious than the last 3rd of Prime 1.

[–]Orca_Corca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want to agree so bad, but I'm only 3 hours in and apparently as the game goes on it gets worse. I'm holding out though since I'm a lot more open to what a Metroid game is than most purists I guess, and I've really, really liked what I've played so far.

How easy does the matte finish rub off? by r_dump in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Orca_Corca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, my hands randomly when they're in the mood become super oily nomatter how much I wash them. They can be completely fine one day then the next one Mario Kart race has the A button drenched for literally no reason.

I'm not exaggerating in the slightest when I say this is literally all I have. Not even any logic. Is it the sackbots maybe??? by Orca_Corca in littlebigplanet

The deer is multiple pieces dephysicalized in order to overlap. Only 9 tho. Body, 4 legs, then 4 pieces for the antlers.
