Re: Splatoon 2

Nah, I thought Octo Expansion was leagues better than Hero Mode (which I thought was a bit of a letdown, admittedly).

Re: Games Completed 2018

I dont feel alone Andrew I also cant stand Banner Sage, funny because it is the sort of game I should love but like you I found the combat to be both incredibly dull and a slog and the story to be initially interesting but I also quickly lost interest. I dont know if this will make you change your ...

Re: Community Streamers

twitch.tv/playcritically https://www.youtube.com/c/playcritically I mostly stream new Switch games but I try to sneak in other platforms every now and then. Single-player focused.

Re: Our next podcast recording (9.6.18) - 323: Final Fantasy IV

What draws me to videogames, and what I wish I could talk about more, is the way they tell stories in ways other mediums cannot. Unfortunately, most videogames "tell stories" by removing the player from the environment temporarily to watch a cutscene that moves the plot forward, then dropp...

Re: Your Top 50 Games of All Time Lists

At first I thought this list would be plainly impossible, but after I saw Flabyo just post his fifty games in alphabetical order, it seemed like a much less daunting task. So here's mine. It has very few surprises. Advance Wars: Dual Strike Banjo-Kazooie Batman: Arkham City The Binding of Isaac BioS...

Re: Game suggestions for the podcast

Has there ever been discussion of episodes focused on specific consoles? Now that they're in their twilight, doing a retrospective episode on the Vita or the Wii U and talking about their legacy and people's reaction to their hardware foibles and software libraries could be a fun episode. It has be...

Re: Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition

Fire Emblem Warriors was a huge disappointment to me. The campaign is okay, but the bonus "History Mode" tried to recreate the grid-based battles of the core series by turning each "unit" into a Musou-style battle and it just really didn't work for me. Moreover, it felt like some...

Re: Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition

I can't speak to those, I've only played Fire Emblem Warriors and Hyrule Warriors. I am planning to branch out into other titles starting with Warriors Orochi 4 this fall, and Pirate Warriors Ultimate on Switch once I finish Hyrule Warriors. But as to Hyrule Warriors' alleged repetitiveness, I find ...

Re: Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition

A good 75% of the game is pressing Y, but it just feels so bloody good to me, and it's executed with enormous panache. I didn't ignore the context of what you said. This is what you said. But the real mistake I made was accepting the premise of your statement, when it's not true at all. Once you pe...
