Fire Emblem Warriors will probably be the first FE game I get unless I buy one for my LA trip. I hope they allow you to change the voice acting to a different language because if BOTW is any indication, I don't need that negativity in my life.

Pokken looks solid still, but a core RPG Pokémon game is a system seller. I can't wait to hear more. I'm still hoping it's a multi-regional new story based on previous regions (like Sinnoh *hint*).

Metroid Prime 4 is cool. Definitely keeping my eye on that.

Rocket League will be a lot more addictive now that I can play it anywhere. I always felt it worked better in smaller bursts, and the portability of the Switch lends itself to that.

Everything else was solid enough, but nothing too mind-blowing.

8/10 conference for Nintendo. I would have liked to have seen some more 3rd party title announcements, like Final Fantasy XV, Dark Souls (3), and a release date for some already announced games like DBXV2. Plus, an announcement of a restock for the Switch would have been appreciated, I don't feel like paying some greaseball $600.00 for one on Amazon.

Did you miss Metroid Samus Returns

i didn't watch the trailer yet, i'm still at work (managed to just have enough time on lunch break to watch the press conference at 1.5 speed lol)

but metroid is a series ive always wanted to get into but just never got around to playing. isnt it a lot like castlevania?

Oh I see. It's the "it's not a game it's a movie" argument. Fair enough. Some like it, some don't, it's a bit of a stretch to call it that. Point and click adventure games which have been around forever give you even less control.

the company doesn't care
That's the problem

Modders are the #1 reason why I would never make a game. It would suck to make a piece of art only for people to piss all over it. It's an insult. Just because other companies don't care doesn't mean that I can't for them.

that wasn't the argument he was making at all though

the key points in his rant were
- god of war is a dated benchmark franchise that was good and innovative ONLY in its era
- more god of war games do not need to be made after 3 because it's stale and unimpressive now
- the only way to make a new god of war would be to steal ideas from another successful franchise
- they did exactly that by using the Last of Us as a model, and the IP suffers as a result

it won't suffer in terms of sales figures but the game looks just as dull as Days Gone if not duller

it has nothing to do with it being more cinematic, even though that is a negative aspect

the two pretty much released at the same time. i'd say they were more a product of their era than either of them taking after the other.

Yeah, but Castlevania didn't start taking Metroid's ideas until Symphony of the Night (the original Metroidvania) until three years after Super Metroid dropped. That's where the perception of the two being similar comes from.

Well, I'm looking forward to it. But that's just me. Sony Santa Monica is a good group. They know what they're doing. Though I would have much rather seen their new IP than a new God of War. Unfortunately it was cancelled.

the kid also looks extremely annoying and i don't understand how kratos is gonna put up with his shit

also the jump into norse mythology is just weird—i'm no lore expert on this series, but where were the norse gods up until this point? why was there such a big spit about kratos having killed ALL the gods, when he apparently didn't, because every god from every existing mythology ALSO exists in the god of war universe?

the milking of the cash cow just seems too blatant to me

I'm not sure if it was ever established that gods other than the greek ones existed, or if they just came up with it for this game.

That's the thing about games, they're not static art like a painting is. They can change and improve, that's where modding comes in.
every artistic medium has its follies and this is video games'

The issue, as pointed out by a FRIEND, is that everything seems to be crossing into different genres of gaming. Games that aren't supposed to be an RPG have RPG elements, games that aren't usually open world are becoming open world and doing it poorly. And now loot is the new craze.

Everything just feels the fucking SAME.
yeah i had the same thought

everything is very samey right now, and it sucks

at least this gives me more time to play some vintage games
Bit late, but yeah I'm glad someone agrees with me. I think it's why I've taken an interest to games like Sea of Thieves which just seems so different from the other stuff I've been seeing. Of course it remains to be seen if it'll actually have replayability. Seems like it'd get old fast.

ultimately it boils down to "i enjoy playing games this way, so i will encourage other people to do the same"

when you use mods, there's a sense of untainted purity that you just lose forever

you people look at gaming more as an entertainment medium, whereas i view it in the way that challenger described it—as a static painting that shouldn't be touched by anybody but the original artist

not only do you get all the developers' intentions, you also get their mistakes, which i consider an essential part of the overall experience—if all you're looking to have is fun, then you care less about gaming as an art form than i do

what i don't understand is why my perspective is so viscerally disagreeable to people

Didn't Germany ban depictions of swastikas?
They might just be trying not to get the game banned in Germany
Didn't stop them from doing it in the past. Germany's always been like that and CoD's had Swastika's in the past. World at War doing it last, which I think is arguably one of the better WW2 games in capturing the brutality of the war (and the Soviets)

Let's be honest, Bethesda's base games are already tainted with laziness and lack of innovation, and they actually have an unspoken pitch of their games being better with mods.

And now they have the audacity to try and make them paid. One of the worst developers around for that kinda crap.

If anything mods remind us of what Bethesda could actually do and how lazy they are. I mean hell their first DLC was a New Vegas mod more or less.

apparently the uk censored the wolfenstein trailer so they might be trying to cover all their bases and avoid being banned in certain places
