Clemantine! I played PSU about a year ago with my friends. We played about two weeks then they fell off~ it was good to revisit, but it was a repeat of the first time haha
- Comment on What’s your favorite video game that most people didn’t like ?? 1 day ago:
Heroes of Might and Magic IV - Diverted from the series’ standards with a new traversal mechanic. Most people hated it and was immediately dropped for Heroes V. But it added unique ways to get around, rewarded having small squads of fast units. Still had incredible music.
Phantasy Star Universe, Phantasy Star Zero - Weird entries in a franchise that pretty much only gets discussed for PSO and PSO2. PSU had a weird spell mechanic where your wand had PP instead of your character having PP, so Cast characters could use photon arts. And the Beast race that was forgotten. PSZ is more story-based, but I mostly feel that people don’t know about it rather than dislike it.

Uniracers is awesome! Truly a unique game for how it plays. The track color code system is very well implemented, and once you get good at the game you feel like Cypher reading the Matrix code directly. Great music that still pops in my head.
The lawsuit is just tragic because it’ll never be rereleased/remastered, and would be awesome on NSO.

I quit in Cataclysm and hopped back in for WoD. The garrisons were a great concept and I enjoyed sending expeditions. But I just didn’t have the time for WoW anymore and my community was gone, so I only played a month.

Now, games have aggressive monetization through battle passes and gotcha mechanics! Truly we have improved.

- Comment on Nintendo Confirms It Has Under-Wraps Switch 2 Games Due Later This Year, as Share Price Drops Following Console Price Hike 2 weeks ago:
For first party support, Tomodachi Life did just come out, and sales data shows that around half of the sales were for Switch 1. Switch 2’s launch year was certainly lean compared to the excellent 2017 Switch lineup, but there were a lot of heavy hitters from all of their top IPs and that wheelchair basketball game. With how similar the consoles are, I’d imagine we’ll still get a handful of first party Switch 1 titles like Rhythm Heaven and cross-gen games like Metroid and Pokemon Z-A.
The Switch was fairly underpowered when it launched in 2017, so the fact that we’re even getting new games for it more than a year after Switch 2 is pretty nice. And it’ll get third party/indie support for many more years.

It had RECORD sales. Nintendo did a great job that supply met demand and scalpers didn’t ruin it for a lot of people. Cutting back after your launch delivered to your core base should be a standard, not an exception.

Probably more to do with RAM prices
- Comment on StarFox (N64 Remake) Gameplay Reveal 3 weeks ago:
TotK swapped out all the main abilities and made Gary’s Mod the main focus with the battery power being a new primary stat meter, so it does feel quite different. Also you have a full party fighting with you and two new maps to explore.
Mario Kart 8 introduced tracks that go upside down and underwater, and gave full kart customization. Mario Kart World made every track part of an open world map and made open world challenges. Sure the main gameplay is very similar, but it’s definitely not just Mario Kart 64 again and again.
Compare with something like Star Fox, F-Zero, Punch-Out, or Pikmin where the series just languishes until they feel they have a new enough spin to give it. Those games could have much bigger franchises if they changed their philosophy a bit.
- Comment on StarFox (N64 Remake) Gameplay Reveal 3 weeks ago:
That’s genuinely not true. They’re actually infuriatingly devoted to only putting out games with new ideas. We don’t get regular sequels often because they wouldn’t deviate far enough from the previous one.
The spin for this new Star Fox is clearly the camera tie in, getting to basically be a vtuber in their chat system. It also utilizes mouse controls, a series first.

- Comment on Your Truck is Stupid Big 4 weeks ago:
Yeah the real point is that the vehicle you haul your dirt bikes in and the vehicle you park at the airport are ideally different, but it’s very understandable that they aren’t. Also I’m certain that truck isn’t backed in all the way. It’s stupid big, but not 2x longer than the space big.

Yup. 5 is probably tied with 3 as my favorite in the series. Glad they consider 4 a good entry as well, because even if they messed with traversal, the sailing theme is bangin
