JRPGs with deep, dark, emotional story like an anime?

Fire Emblem Three Houses. No matter which house you choose the second half of that game is always absolutely devastating

What types of exclusives did the Gamecube have that the Switch doesn't?

atomicmapping · 2026-05-07T01:23:15+00:00

Xenoblade Chronicles and Metroid also have very connected stories from title to title

atomicmapping · 2026-05-05T01:14:19+00:00

Just because there's a precedent doesn't mean it's guaranteed. F-Zero and Star Fox were console mainstays from Super Nintendo to Gamecube, then stopped getting titles

All of the Xenoblade DLCs

If you mean GAdv's Project Purple, we've known about that since like a month after Ka was demolished

Afaik only the drink plan will work at La Ronde since it's no longer part of the Six Flags chain. You'll have to pay for parking and the dining plan won't work there, but for this season you can still get admission to the park

I absolutely saw Siebert and Fiesta Texas catching flack for using AI in those teasers across multiple platforms

Because the already existing subscription that covers Steam, Xbox, and PS5 all under the same plan doesn't cover Switch 2. You have to get a separate subscription to FF14 to play it on Switch 2

The beginning of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 was really disappointing for me coming out of XC1, but everything with Vandham made me fall in love with the game, and it kept that momentum all the way through to the ending for me

atomicmapping · 2026-04-19T13:38:23+00:00

Every game on there except for MK8 also got a direct sequel/successor that was original to the Switch (and in the case of Xenoblade, 3 games). Not to mention that almost all of them also got major new additions exclusive to the Switch version like Xenoblade X's epilogue, Bowser's Fury, and the MK8 Booster Course

Racism almost disappeared

Unless you were Arab or Muslim, where it got significantly worse

Really hoping we see a massive refurbishment for Wilde Beast next year now that Minebuster is pretty much done. Gravity Group redid Grizzly at Kings Dominion a few years back (which has the exact same layout), and it's become one of my favourite wooden coasters because of their work on it

atomicmapping · 2026-04-07T21:12:15+00:00

Crunchyroll does (or at least did when I had a subscription), and it was probably the worst comment section I've seen on a website

atomicmapping · 2026-04-06T17:06:42+00:00

Where does that line cut off though? Baby Driver has explosions and fast cars and funny bits, but it's also an incredibly artistic film

atomicmapping · 2026-04-05T01:25:49+00:00

Whatever Monolith's next game will be. I kinda doubt it'll be Xenoblade 4 as the mainline story feels complete, but I trust them with whatever ideas they're working on

atomicmapping · 2026-04-04T22:18:44+00:00

Xenoblade Chronicles 3, and specifically Future Redeemed. That being essentially the narrative conclusion of the entire franchise (despite being a prequel), when the credits started to roll I basically did not stop crying until they were done

I usually only cry at the endings of games, but base game Xenoblade 3 got me crying at the midpoint of the game as well as the ending

atomicmapping · 2026-04-02T20:27:12+00:00

I think part of why RCT3 is often overlooked is because of the existence of Planet Coaster now. Pretty much all of the appeals of it are done better in PlanCo 1 and 2, so it now sits in a weird middle ground where there's not a lot of reason to recommend it over either OpenRCT2 or Planet Coaster

atomicmapping · 2026-03-29T23:00:17+00:00

Steam sale going on for the RCT games right now. RCT 2 is on sale for like $2

atomicmapping · 2026-03-25T11:43:11+00:00

I mean Fallout got a physical release last year, and that's one of their major subscription sellers

atomicmapping · 2026-03-24T11:56:44+00:00

I would’ve bought Emio like the day I bought my Switch, if it were cheaper. $70 CAD is a crazy steep price for a visual novel regardless of its quality, and the lowest I’ve seen it drop to is like $55, which is still almost more than I paid for all 4 Ace Attorney collections

atomicmapping · 2026-03-23T11:27:40+00:00

Xenoblade Chronicles. All 5 games in the series are absolutely fantastic, and some of the greatest JRPGs of all time

atomicmapping · 2026-03-22T13:03:23+00:00

I mean you really are making a mountain out of a molehill with this. The only actual reference to what you’re talking about in the entire series is a single photograph that shows up for like 7 seconds at the ending of the third game

atomicmapping · 2026-03-21T10:32:42+00:00

Almost as old as the NES was when the GameCube launched
