Not to mention SE's Octopath Traveler, which has a demo launching on the eShop today. Also, dare I hope for Samus' Power Suit in Doom? A man can dream

Wolfenstien is a good grab. We knew that the bravely default guys were making a switch rpg. So yea christmas is looking better. Ill admit. We shall see because if wolf runs like ass it might do more harm than good

 

[Phoenixmgs_v1legacy]

well as we've already clarified. quality is completely subjective and i don't consider alot of the PS4 games that you consider to be good "quality" to be so. The Last Guardian? LMAO! you mean the game that with bad controls and revolves around trying to tell your Griffin friend to do stuff but like a dog, he doesn't listen and usually does the complete opposite thing to what you actually want him to do?

Some people have taste, Yoshi.

So, it's the WiiU year one all over again? Watch Dogs came out 6 months late on WiiU, that didn't change anything. I smell the same for the Switch and Wolfenstein II. Though congrats for getting games you should get...

BSG - "All of this has happened before. And all of this will happen again." "So say we all."

The funniest thing is you can thank Sony for this because of PSVR. I'm sure you can figure out why, I have confidence in you Yoshi!!!

So the Switch is getting a game that's been out for over a year on systems that have far better specs? And, personally speaking, a game that's average at best?

Um...yay?

last time i checked. you guys on escapist here having been moaning about 3rd Party support on Switch saying it will NEVER get things like GTAV and such. well bam. there you go. 3 games from Bethesda with obviously more to come.

guess what? GTAV is bloody 4 years old now. way older than DOOM.

and its so typical that you completely ignore Wolfenstein II being announced for the Switch which is, holy shit! currently an unreleased game!

and i'd MUCH rather be able to take my console game on the go with me rather than spending all my time giving a shit about how much polygons are on the screen. i don't even give a shit about wolfenstein and i'm not going to buy it. but hey, a completely portable version is there for you. keep counting those polygons and frames per second though.

Where have I complained about the Switch not getting GTA5?

I didn't mention Wolfenstein because there's nothing to say. It's an unreleased game. Apparently it's coming later on the Switch (2018 vs. late 2017), but the time difference is unknown. This is in comparison to Doom which will have a time difference of over a year. Which isn't the greatest time difference in the world, but it's systemic of a problem that Nintendo's had since the Wii - games tend to be released much later, if at all, and have to work with weaker hardware.

Also, you want to talk about ignoring posts? You outright ignored the figures I gave you on libraries.

You don't give a shit about Wolfenstein, yet bring it up as an example of...what? The Switch getting third party support? A console getting third party support isn't much to brag about, it's practically an expectation. That the Switch is getting games like Doom and Wolfenstein later than its contemporaries isn't really something in its favor.

Obviously not...

i don't even give a shit about wolfenstein and i'm not going to buy it.

And your taste is dependent on whether Nintendo published or developed a game.

if that were true i wouldn't have bought Super Bomberman R

What find amusing is that Bethesda pretty much admitting that Doom's multiplayer sucked by leaving it out of the physical copies of the game. Still, Bethesda bringing out their hits and new stuff is constituting a pattern, meaning it helps the possibility they'll keep bringing products out on it (Dishonored, for example). Being able to use gyro controls in Doom and Wolfenstein sounds great too.

You can add another sale of the Switch to the list, because I'm getting one as soon as I get back home to Montreal.

So. Many. RPGS. Holy crap...

 

[Phoenixmgs_v1legacy]

Ohhh, Bomberman, that's trying something new!!!

 

[Hawki]

But of course *rolls eyes* they are shit, Yoshi. Since when did Nintendo gamers EVER *REALLY* care for the gaming medium/art form or its history?
Never.

He said he didn't care about Wolfenstein, notcomment on Wolfenstien's quality as a whole.

I can acknowledge Wolfenstien's influence and still not care about the series personally.

So. Many. RPGS. Holy crap...

But no Golden Sun 4

On the other hand, Xenoblade 2 looks interesting, though I have no idea how it's supposed to be a sequel to Xenoblade at this point. Maybe it's a sequel in the same way as something like FF2 is to FF1, but even that's iffy - doesn't "Xeno" cover the series as a whole?

 

[Yoshi178]

i didn't say Wolfenstein was shit. i said i don't give a shit about it. there's a difference.


who knows? i might even pick up Wolfenstein 2 at some point when it goes on sale for $20 in bargain bin at EB games like i did with DOOM. EB Games had their mid year sale and found the brand new game for $20 (which is a bargain for Australian standards as most new games cost like $100 here) so i picked it up for Xbox One a few months ago.


haven't played it. it's sitting in my backlog of games, but it's there

Xenoblade 2 isn't a Direct sequel to the first games story. both games have completely different stories and characters it seems just like Xenoblade Chronicles X had a different story and cast to the first game.

Xenoblade Chronicles and Xenoblade Chronicles X were by different teams at Monolith soft though so 2 features alot of the same enemies as the first game whereas Xenoblade Chronicles X didn't aside from the telethia. but even then the telethia looked completely different in XCX compared to XC.

the Nintendo Direct direct showed us that not only does XC2 feature the same art style as the first game, but that also alot of recogniseable enemies from the first game are returning in this sequel. Xenoblade Chronicles and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 also much more story driven than Xenoblade Chronicles X which was more focused around being an open world type game.

 

[aegix drakan_v1legacy]

LIES! The first game didn't have the rediculous over-the-top Animu-moe art style. The characters all looked like normal people with realistic proportions. Now they look weirdly disproportioned with eyes that are absurdly massive. At least, the protagonist does.

Game still looks fun as all heck and I'm going to get it for sure, but still, the art style for the characters just really rubs me the wrong way.
