I care about online review scores and personally find them extremely offensive. I also think about them so much that I can't sleep.

I knew it was gonna happen, but they ran out of physical copies.  So now I'm here just waiting for it to finish DLing after deleting almost everything on my Wii U.

It won't be till after midterms till I can get the game and possibly the switch although I'm still not sure if I want to buy cards, especially since YuGiOh seems to be actually getting fixed temporarily.
Y'all think going for the switch is worth it.

Like fucking really, why does this shit ALWAYS come from Sony fans specifically?

If I had to guess, 3 years of Sony "winning" the console wars

nah, it predates this gen. this kind of behavior emerged at the start of last gen when the PS3 got BTFO by the 360 and wii. sony operates like apple when it comes to their marketing in that they activate the same kind of response in the brain that religion does which makes a very zealous kind of fanboy for their products.

i actually find the subject of how corporations use psychology to manipulate the consumer to be a really interesting subject, but it's also really off topic for a thread that's supposed to be about the zelda franchise.

LOOOOOL

It's a little bit of a shame too. HZD actually looks pretty cool. It's Battleborn all over again.

Guess video games are just a shit medium in that case. As a matter of fact Jurassic Park is a shit movie; the T-Rex clips through the log he burst though out of view.

LC would probably go into cardiac arrest watching AGDQ

verbs upset because i was poking fun at the game on another site with webms showcasing terrible animation and voice acting, terrible clipping, objects that you can flat out walk through, the lack of physics in some areas, terrible pop in, terrible story and braindead ai.

i believe i've said multiple times that there's nothing wrong with enjoying horizon and if people like it that's completely fine. but hey, i've blasphemed by even implying that horizon isn't perfect so it's time for me to go to the gallows.

horizon isn't even special in this regard. i don't think there's a day that goes by where i don't find something to poke fun at when it comes to mass effect: andromeda, but i'm still getting it anyway because i think it looks

Just about to leave the Great Plateau. I've spent a good portion of time exploring it and trying to find everything I can.

Never got into the series but like bacon said, it's nice to see a non-dissappointing game come out and have people enjoy it for once. I'm honestly kinda envious since that's not a feeling I'll likely ever know again.

Not crazy about the generic RPG menus and equipment/loot setup they have (I much prefer the standard Zelda format), but I think they knocked it out of the park giving you access to a bunch of tools early on, like in A Link Between Worlds.

What's important about the menus is how streamlined they are. Since you can collect so many things, I think they just wanted you to be able to scan through your items as quickly as possible--and to that effect, I think it does the job, generic as they look.

My only real hang-ups from the start of the game were how long it took me to master the controls. It's very off-kilter for a Zelda game, and it took me a bit of getting used to--I'm still kinda getting used to it. This isn't necessarily a bad thing--if there's one thing I appreciate about game controls, it's learning them myself through gameplay--but there are certain maneuvers that just feel a little awkward to perform at first. Trying to jump while dashing is uncomfortable because you have to hold B and then press X, until I realized there's a small window after you release B where you can still perform a dashing jump if you hit X fast enough--or at least, that seems to be the case. Don't quote me on that.

I'm also using a Wii U gamepad, which is a big clunky piece of shit, but nonetheless.

Also, the frame rate does have a tendency to dip in certain spots. It's not horrible, but it's definitely could-be-better tier.

Im getting the Dark Souls 'claw' tendency again, or at least a familiarity

I don't think I know anyone who is forced to use the claw in darksouls, trying to think of a build that would allow it


Probably a magic one

My friend has been talking about this game none-stop recently, her being an avid Zelda fan-girl.

Something they keep repeating is 'this is going to be the next ocarina of time' I don't play Zelda so I'm sitting there pretending I know whats going on, the music is nice, though

male, he/him

dracula can eat my whole ass!
Just bought the game digitally for Wii-U. I'm so bored and the theme playing in the Wii U store menu just forced me to buy it.

It was this or Zero Dawn and I think I chose correctly.
