“This is a five month passion project for the studio as we’re creating and publishing the game entirely by ourselves,”

Maybe? The bottom line is that if I’m not having fun I’m going to stop playing it. At the same time, the more I pay for a game which I stop playing the angrier I am at myself (or the game) for wasting my money. I won’t continue playing it either way though; at that point it’s just wasting my money AND my time.

Binding of Isaac is a great game, but kind of iffy for this list. By late-game certain item combinations, especially if you have mods, can cause the game to really chug even on half decent hardware.

Maybe they lowered the graphics settings.

If you want to get good with a character play a few hours of free for all deathmatch with them and try hard. It gives you a low-stress place to engage characters that counter your picks and learn how best to deal with them.

You say that the physical copies only save a minimal amount of storage space - how minimal? Because I’m no sucker, I’m not buying a second copy of a game I already own, so I don’t have any point of comparison.

That’s good to keep in mind, but good DMs typically don’t railroad players for the sake of the story. If a character could feasibly do something and the player has a desire to do so then they should be able to make the attempt.

Souls fans have been really great about coordinating community events. They’ve also done these revivals for Dark Souls 1 and 2 in the past.

Secret of Evermore I could understand, but is anyone really clamoring for a remake of Mystic Quest?

I doubt we’ll get SaGa, but I hope Taiko Drum Master gets a western release. It sucked that the Vita game never made it over; it’s actually very good.

Whenever I look down I see my body. I see my arms if I’m swinging a baseball bat too.

I really don’t think there’s anything redeeming about FF15's first person mode. It lacks any of the niceties that I’d expect from a AAA release. Simple things like head bobbing or seeing your character’s arms would go a long way to making it feel less like a tacked on feature.

I love the idea of a video game news show, but I have a few notes:

If you’re losing 80% of your matches then there’s something wrong there, not that it invalidates the rest of your comment or the way you feel about the game.

I got a Switch about 3 months ago and I’ve noticed the same issue with the controllers described by Totilo where they either don’t charge or discharge very quickly despite being plugged in for a solid 8+ hours.

The violent video games, believe me, are not good for children. I am told by some very smart people, the smartest even, well at least the smartest in the USA, have told me this themselves. You had better stop making them or I will rain fire and fury on you.

Does the Switch version of Dragon Quest Builders have any new additions/changes compared to the older versions? It’s hard to justify buying this port if it’s the same as the Vita version I already own and have made hours of progress in.

I wonder how many users are making characters based on people they know.

It blows my mind that with all the features Steam keeps adding we somehow still can’t filter our library by tags.

Sure, but when you say “Rein’s tiny” I think “head.” Seriously, is his brain contained in his shoulders?
