Do you have any proposal for a replacement? We need something to describe the genre, and while “metroidvania” might not be an accessible word, it’s at least a functional one. “Exploration adventure” maybe? That’s unfortunately close to the so-generic-it’s-useless “action-adventure” genre, but it’s the best I can come…

Agreed. People hate on it but I think it did a good job of allowing every class to bring something to the table and allowing for massive amounts of customization. 5e really hasn’t hit that level of customization and likely never will.

If a player could one hit kill most things, the game would be too easy. But I think if a game was built around the idea of a powerful lightsaber, it could work.

Early on, Han Solo uses a lightsaber to cut open a Tauntaun...

I wanted to be dark and brooding

this is the worst take

This seems more like a performance piece than a product.

You have no idea. The thing about creation games if that even a small feature can add so many possibilities. But damn man, they really went all out for this one.

I like that they’re bringing over the Nintendo Online membership bundle, but it seems like the US version isn’t getting the stylus pack-in, which is strange.

Forced arbitration blatantly disregards due process and should be illegal.

I mean, they did ban the tactic the ice climber main used. I’m not defending the guy nor the game. Smash eas never meant to be competitive yet they continue insisting it can be, but banning moves in a game seems sorta counter intuitive to the “use what you can to win” thing

Even the advertisements took shots at the N64's puny cartridge-based infrastructure.

Competitive smash is easily the worst part about smash.

The dude rage quit... its as simple as that. No special treatment or consideration should be offered to those who give into this baser human feelings. Grow tf up. Everyone deals with issues of rage and anger... you’re not special.

He got up and walked away. He wasn’t entitled to a do-over. Simple as that.

From Software also made my favorite mech series, Armored Core.

It should be like high school athletics where your 250 pound sociology teacher with the flop sweat is also the assistant basketball coach, and he makes a whopping extra $800 to be the assistant JV basketball coach. If the college coaches had to also be professors at the college, and they would not being able to make…
