“Forgettable story and characters.”

You’re right; I should clarify I meant I want the remake *visually* rather than in content. I really want to see all the events of the game remade in glorious unnecessarily high-budget detail. Doing it like LaL is also awesome, I’m just one of those old fogies who’s still harboring a grudge over Chrono Resurrection…

I would do terrible - horrible - things to see Chrono Trigger get an FF7R style remake (just without all the bloat). But I’d also do terrible - horrible! - things to see an HD2D remake. Just a no-nonsense, high fidelity remake.

Damn, for real? That’s actually shocking. Wow.

I haven’t played Palworld but it’s hard to imagine it performing worse than Scarlet/Violet does. I love Scarlet/Violet for a lot of reasons but I also can’t stand them for even more, and they run like absolute, filthy ass, and from a studio with as much money and success as GameFreak, it simply should not happen.…

The latest games sold almost 25 million copies and are among the best selling Pokemon games of all time. I’m not sure you understand the meaning of competitive when Pokemon can shit out of a half-assed, ugly, buggy mess like Scarlet/Violet and still absolutely dominate the market, and even get me to admit I still had…

The hardware isn’t the problem with Pokemon Scarlet/Violet, it’s the developers. No, the Switch isn’t super powerful, but there are plenty of other games running on it, released at the same time or newer (or older, even!) that look and perform far, far better than SV do.

2.5D Pokemon idea stan here, please, make it happen and save me from these atrociously mid-yet-beautiful RPGs like Octopath.

Fallow, maybe, but when there are so many great games that are still relatively new (within a year-ish of release) it’s not like people are going to be starved for games. I have a backlog going back years and it would be nice to actually have some breathing room hahaha.

I’m okay with this. I got my Switch at midnight on launch and it’s *still* going strong. I still have a buttload of games on it that I have yet to play, and there’s still quite a few I want to buy. I’ve put literally thousands of hours into this machine, it’s insane. I went from almost completely giving up on Nintendo…

That’s great and all... but how about the games?

Feels like the PS5 is still getting warmed up, and I’ve had one for 2 years and have several wonderful exclusives on it. But already in the latter half? Really? Dang. I dunno man, I’d be perfectly okay stretching these console gens out a few more years with how ridiculously powerful these things are. We don’t need to…

Yup. It took me, a gamer of over 30 years, time to acclimate to HFW’s insane visual fidelity and I had to adjust my brain to look for things differently. I remember turning off the options to easily navigate the cliff walls and it was a totally different experience. Ended up turning the visual cues back on just…

Thank you for the reply! I’m sure there’s definitely a lot more going on under the hood, so to speak, than I could possibly be aware of.

Might be a dumb question, but why is NG+ seemingly added in AFTER games are finished, and well after a lot of people have already beat the game? This doesn’t seem like something too difficult to implement by the time of the game’s release, right? Modern gaming...

I actually dug the map cutscenes! I kind of want more of that in the future. 

Can’t even lie, the combat made my thumbs actually sore and tired, and frequently at that. Really wish it was more in-depth even if I did have fun with it.

I get it, but some of those creatures look startlingly close to their obvious Pokemon counterparts. Like, infringing-upon-copyright-close - and them running with the “Pokemon with guns” thing and acknowledging Nintendo’s ability to be litigious tells me they are trying to dance on the razor’s edge. Curious to see if…

I could not disagree with this comment more. FF16 was far more emotionally satisfying on every level, in my opinion, than FF15, and it isn’t even close. 16 made me shed tears in the end. 15 made me breathe a sigh of relief that it was finally over, because the game couldn’t even figure out how to make its…

Yup, that’s exactly where I remember my first sinking feeling with 15 occurring, because something felt horribly off about that entire scene and how everything important occurred off screen with zero further explanation. Ugh.
