I love puzzle games and it is one of the best I've played in some time. It also means I end up staring at my Switch for long stretches searching for that ah-ha moment of a solution for that tough puzzle. Good luck! I watched someone stream that on Twitch for a little bit. Seems fun but I think I would get tired of it after a while. I'm finally playing Mario Odyssey now. I shelved Bloodstained for a bit. I didn't really play anything for a couple of weeks, but I've been wanting to play Odyssey so I took the plunge today! Having a lot of fun so far.

zeppelin03 | 314 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 In order of priority Picross 2 The Outer Worlds Pokemon Sword Picross somehow took over my life the last week or so. Close to being done. 17 hours into Outer Worlds and I'm having a great time. I'm doing most every side quest and have two companions so I feel very over powered. May have to up the difficulty a bit. Pokemon is fun but I am just playing an hour or so a week until the other games are wrapped up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pokemon is fun but I am just playing an hour or so a week until the other games are wrapped up. I was told to play Outer Worlds on hard prior to starting and it still feels easy. Side quests are fun, but if you do them all, you become overpowered quickly. Still a great game though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cj_robot | 557 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Just started Axiom Verge on the Switch. Seems pretty cool so far. It's cool to play a new game like classic Metroid, but it kind of bugs me when games are a little toooo much like the games that inspired them. Also started playing Heroes of Might & Magic that I picked up on sale from GoG a while ago. I was addicted to this game back in the day, and sure enough, it sucked up half my day today. Man, I forgot how goofy the artwork is in that game! Haha, 90s DOS game memories! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only got the game within the last couple weeks, and right there in the eshop are some downloadable kits for your players in the game. One of them sets you up with better armor looking like the set I think from DQ8 which helps early on, then there's a wolf set which Erik can use as a sweet boost, and then a few others as well for specific perks. Each had an individual download more or less. Yes the S stands for special, and yes it did have more stuff to give beyond the added download DLC stuff too that was already included, which does as he pointed out have to do with the 3DS as you have the optional play anytime in 2D mode from the handheld release.

I felt like the mix of old and new was worse than just commiting to one style. Super Metroid, SotN, and just about every modern Metroidvania does it better in my opinion.

Have you played Samus Returns on the 3DS? I'm curious what your thoughts would be on that. I'd love to see Castlevania get the same treatment. I think I get what you're saying though. Pixel-y art but with all sorts of crazy effects? One that comes to mind is Dead Cells. I'm still not sure how I feel about that game.

I didn't assume they were talking about pointless cosmetic stuff like character costumes. The DQ8 outfit wasn't downloadable for PS4 though, it's built into the disc, though it's just assigned to your inventory from the beginning as if it were.

Ausden | 323 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Made it to Chapter 3 of LEGO City on the switch. Liking the GTAish way the game plays and feels but in a kid friendly way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumez | 3,041 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Romancing SaGa 2 is one of the biggest pleasant surprises I've had from any RPG in probably over a decade. I knew RS3 did a lot of the same stuff, but I never realised that RS2 was as fantastic of a game as it is. It does have its share of jank, and some of its elements can get really tedious, but I absolutely love its world design, sense of exploration and adventure, and the incredible open ended design. There aren't a lot of other games like this, and it makes me really sad to think of. I think Octopath Traveller wanted to be it, but it ended up being something else entirely.

Lago | 234 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 I'm having way more fun than I should playing Sushi Strikers: Way of Sushido for the Nintendo Switch. The game is much easier playing with the touch controls than a controller. Can't recommend going that route enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a3quit4s | 4,157 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 I had never played Snow Brothers before and I bought it from someone on here a few weeks ago. It was really fun to play especially since I really like Bubble Bobble and it’s is really quite similar. I think I made it to level 31 on my first go, the boss that shoots bombs is a real pain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skorp | 383 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Pokemon Sword still...210 hours apparently. Nuts as it doesn't feel like I played it that long. Gonna go to Let's Go Pikachu soon so I can get Mew and transfer it over for the dex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DefaultGen | 5,570 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Altered Beast. This game is pretty terrible, but it's also only 8 minutes long. I have so much respect for a beat 'em up that knows beat 'em ups are only fun for 8 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeppelin03 | 314 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Bought Call of Duty Modern Warfare on PC. I'm actually enjoying the multiplayer for the first time in years. Feels like it's back to basics. 4K HDR looks great but Dobly Atmos really shines in this title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I last played BLOPS 2. There have been a lot of complaints online about excessive camping in this one. Specifically, with claymores and how the map design is a lot more cramped. Did you have any problems with this yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you have any problems with this yourself? The last Call of Duty I enjoyed was MW3. MW, MW2, and BLOPS were the big ones for me. I don't find the levels much more cramped than my memory of the old ones. Blend of roads, open buildings, and cramped doorways/stairwells. Sure I get killed by claymores or mines in some of those spots. A lot of it has made sense since someone might be camping an overlook. I have the core game selection running with nothing removed. Free for all would be the one I would shut off. It's camp heavy. I get hit by people prone in a corner a bunch. Otherwise it's been fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
