apsham Posted October 29, 2017 Report Share Posted October 29, 2017 Not really, they're just for fun besides most levels having a door like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owen Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 So, I got my Switch today. Good stuff. Honestly a little smaller than I anticipated, but I guess it's portable so it wasn't going to be too big. Super Mario Odyssey is great, a little bit of a pain in the ass in some bits, but I guess that's a good thing because it'd suck if it was too easy. There's something great about Mario games in particular, I feel like the atmosphere and the environments just seem a bit more grand, more than in other games. Mario Kart 8 is just... Mario Kart 8, again, really. Bit lame that everything was unlocked from the start, though, because unlocking everyone is half the fun. Wouldn't have minded a feature that gave you the option to unlock all the characters/courses at once, like in the WWE games. The lack of unlockables in the game makes me feel like it would only be a good purchase for someone who already had MK8 on Wii U (I was one of those), because maybe someone who wasn't an avid Mario Kart player would not play it for too long if they didn't have anything to unlock/achieve. They could've at least made the brand new characters unlockable. Ah well. Already looking at new games to buy because I fear I might accidentally finish Odyssey far too soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BotW is an obvious one. Splatoon 2 if you played and enjoyed the one on WiiU. Sonic Mania is preefun too. Right now I'm deciding between getting Binding of Isaac this week or wait and get Sonic Forces when that comes out shortly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might get Sonic Forces if it gets good reviews, but I don't know much about it. I've never really been a fan of the 2D side scrolling Sonics, so if it's like that, I'm not too interested. Never played Splatoon, but looks like fun, not massive on Zelda, either, but I also feel that I probably haven't given the games a particularly fair shake... so that might be the next one I pick up, because I got the Switch mainly for the exclusives. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonic Forces looks to be like a sequel to Generations with that style of worlds where it's 3D and 2D crossover.. Sonic Mania is definitely side scroller. I understand the Zelda feelings, I've never been a big fan of the series but my son seems to enjoy the games somewhat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've played hundreds of hours of the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skummy Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 Odyssey is so much fun. I'm still only early on, but it's just a gorgeous game and full of charm. So much attention to detail, which Nintendo are just the kings of. My only real criticisms of the Switch at this point are that I'm still having JoyCon connectivity issues with the left JoyCon when playing on the TV (may be to do with placement of the console in relation to where I'm sitting, but I don't have much choice in that matter), and that the prices for some of the eShop games are ridiculously high. You're paying £20-£30 for some games that you could barely justify spending £10-£15 for on PC on PS4, so I'm finding myself far less likely to take a punt on any new games. That said, has anyone given Golf Story a go? I'm reluctant, because I don't know how much time I'll spend on a game like that on Switch - I've barely touched Stardew Valley - but the concept is so daft that it really appeals to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apsham Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 Golf Story is really fun and good for short/long bursts of play. Lets you save at any time and the mechanics are pretty damn good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owen Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 Unable to play my Switch on my monitor until this ground loop noise isolator thing I ordered arrived, as the audio is unbearable otherwise... ah well, shouldn't be more than a couple days.

Bobfoc Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 I finished the main story of Super Mario Odyssey yesterday. I wouldn't hesitate to call it my favourite 3D platformer ever. The accessibility and the level of curiosity the whole game allows and actively encourages are fantastic, and there were rarely points at which I felt frustrated in any way. I'm really glad Nintendo did away with the lives system, which, in today's world, is an archaic system that serves to add tedium. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no "Game Over" situations. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
