Well damn, sis. You're gonna love Echoes then. Oh, that. Well honestly, when I got the final suit upgrade, I only had 3 artifacts left to find, so getting them wasn't like super fun, but it also wasn't a major chore. As soon as I found the artifact temple or whatever it's called, I paid close attention to the hints and tried to pick up artifacts whenever I was in the correct region.
Magickarp Posted October 18, 2023 Posted October 18, 2023 I wish i could get into Mario games, or any platformers the Switch pretty much died in 2022 for me What a blowout year to go out on tho. 4 of my T10 Switch games dropped in 2022. Nier, Portal, Triangle, Arceus On 10/15/2023 at 10:53 PM, Eóghan said: honestly there's no other game like this in the nintendo ip catalogue that i can compare it with. it's a rockstar game after all, this is no nintendo or souls game, there's no difficulty. you can put your brain on autopilot and enjoy the movie. if you want the difficulty you have to look for it (for example there's a system for each mission where you get a list of requirements, depending on the things you achieve on the list during the mission you can get a gold/silver/bronze medal). this is purely for challenge purpose and completionist. I see a lot of of people compare it to botw but i play each game for very different reasons, i replay rdr2 for the outstanding story, the superbly written characters and the different outcomes/relationships that i didn't explore the first time around. and i replay botw for the awsome fluid gameplay and physics. the exploration/survival aspect are great and rewarding in both games. I think that's why they do get compared a lot. as for the worries you mention - i don't remember having any problem with picking plants/items up, it's fast like any game but the inventory is annoyingly small, you have the possibility to upgrade it as you progress the game. this is the aspect of the game where I personally sought out the difficulty for myself which could be annoying for anyone else but it was super fun for me. i wanted the satchel with unlimited inventory which is considered the biggest challenge in the game where you have to track and hunt a very specific list of animals all over the map, you have to kill them in a certain way with very specific weapons, it took me 25 hours to do so this is the realistic-survivalist approach that wasn't in rdr that turned off some players but honestly it can be ignored if you're great at managing your small inventory. - the combat/shooting is fine but not great. it was awkward and unintuitive for me, you get used to it I guess. there's no play session where i don't have a bounty on my ass because i killed npc/merchants by accident - the travelling is another controversial thing about this game that was a result of the realistic approach they took with this game, yes it is slow to get around depending on what horse you have + the map is huge. but there is a fast travel system within the game, it just takes a while to unlock and it's not obvious. during the first year of release of this game, most players didn't even know that there was a fast travel system, that's how obscure rockstar made it. I assume because it defeats the purpose of the game but honestly I used it a lot. thank god it's there. anyway to resume it's worth it for the story alone. and your worries are there but fixable. Thanks for the essay sis! You pushed me over the edge to get it It was only $20 USD so even if i don't like it, it should be fine.
Rence Posted October 18, 2023 Posted October 18, 2023 Idc about the games below Pikmin 4. I hope Mario RPG joins the top 5

Kern Posted October 20, 2023 Posted October 20, 2023 I’m enjoying the game so far. Wonder flowers were genius idea to make the game interesting and fresh while maintaining classic Mario formula
Tylerbv Posted October 20, 2023 Posted October 20, 2023 Played the first few intro levels and Wonder is cute. I absolutely love the animations and personalities in this one.
gagacasanova Posted October 20, 2023 Posted October 20, 2023 Oh wow I didn't know Princess Daisy had a new VA
xXavril Posted October 20, 2023 Posted October 20, 2023 Wonder is really good!! I’m not a huge platformer and the second wall jump course really had me pulling my hair out I love the animation and how smooth everything is! I know we knew that wonder seeds are in every single level, but sometimes I forget and get excited when I find one

Starshine Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 Too many games to finish, 2023 is one of the best years in gaming ever. I'll pick up Wonder soon, I'm too busy playin Spiderman.
ebaby Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 I like Wonder so far. I always feel like I have to pace myself heavily with 2D Mario's because if I dive in too hard I blink and it's over

I don’t know how to climb up that horizontal poles
Doogle Posted October 21, 2023 Posted October 21, 2023 Wonder is fun so far. Not the biggest departure from NSMB in terms of actual mechanics but the style of the game is wonderful and fresh, but they’re too scared to majorly switch up the art I guess. I love playing 1p online to see others interacting with me. I’m going to play with my boyfriend on his file later though because I’ve gone right ahead but want to experience it 2p as well

I don’t know how to climb up that horizontal poles What I ended up doing was climbing up the left one, and then you have to time it just right to get to the middle one. Once you get to the middle one you have to jump to the right because the one above it rotates counterclockwise. I noticed it was mostly all in the timing, but it also sucks because if somehow you hit the side walls it takes you all the way back down It was so challenging and by that point I didn’t give a crap about getting the big purple coins. I wanted to set that flower on fire as he was telling me “take a deep breath and focus” 1
