Gloves | 11,759 Administrator · Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Has anyone played the Ori series extensively? Any thoughts on it? I've heard some great things but you folks here are my litmus test for quality. Considering picking up the Collector's Edition cuz it looks gorgeous but I want to be sure if I can that it'll be a series I can really get into.

ZeldaFreak | 3,600 Events Team · Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I've never played them, but I really want to sometime soon, I've heard nothing but amazing things about both games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintegageo | 582 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 They are both exceptional Metroidvania games. The 1st one is awesome/somewhat traditional while the 2nd one took notes o Hollow Knight and was an ever better experience in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webhead123 | 675 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I've only played the first and I did enjoy my time with it. I unfortunately hit some kind of snag about halfway in where I was somehow stuck in a section of the map that no available path would let me leave. I don't know if it was some kind of bug in the game or if I somehow got to a section before I was supposed to be able to. I made multiple attempts to come back to the game and figure out how to progress forward, scoured every inch of the map to make sure I wasn't overlooking some kind of hidden route. I couldn't figure it out. So, if I was going to continue playing, I was going to have to restart from the very beginning. I may go back and do that eventually but that experience kind of made me put the game away for a while. Other than that annoyance, I think the game is well designed and entertaining if you like Metroid-style games in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloves | 11,759 Administrator · Posted November 20, 2020 Author Share Posted November 20, 2020 Have any of you played on the Switch specifically? I'm a little worried about lag - I've been playing Sakuna and have found that some cutscenes especially can be laggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorEncore | 3,690 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 They are both superb and the sequel is easily one of the best games of the generation. I played on Xbox One X, but have heard performance on the Switch is excellent. I will probably replay on Series X with 120FPS when I get a new TV. Since it has become one of my favorite series, I pre-ordered the box set as well. I doubt I'll open it so I won't be able to give you much of an appraisal on that, but I'm sure some aspiring YouTuber will take care of the unboxing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Code Monkey | 2,005 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Why don't you download the demo and play it? That's what made me buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ConfusedCollector | 36 Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 I'm still playing the first one. It's amazing and has some beautiful large set piece action sequences. I'm stuck on one right now and took a break but need to get back to it. Some of those moments are like a cross between puzzle platformer and vertical shooter while the landscape is being destroyed around you. It's pretty cool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailorScoutMandy | 782 Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 I have them in switch and think they're beautiful. You'll probably need some Kleenex fyi, that opening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
