To me it felt completely sterile, lifeless and just set dressing. Although the stories where cool the immersion didn't work at all, turning it into a bore and ultimately disappointing. I played the patched version that supposedly had all this fixed.
I'm now 10 hours in and i'm not so sure if the gameplay loop really differs that much from the first one. The world is whacky, exploration works well, as does the movement, and character progress also feels good. What it might miss for me is the element of surprise. I know exactly what to expect, it's not such a big revelation as the first one and that's obviously something a second part can't repeat. What i don't like so much are the new videos and the third person perspective feels a bit off. Overall i like it though, it's more of the same without huge surprise and that's fine with me.
Absolutely. One mailadress per service. Once a year or so i cycle through everything and delete accounts i don't need/want. I contact the services that don't offer deletion of my data directly. I like to think that the little things count.
Just looked up the prices at the Austrian/German Site - https://store.nintendo.de/de. They are asking 510,-€ with one game. Currently the PS5 with Astrobot is 499,-. Wtf!
Very surprising given they never featured any communication systems! I always figured they want to be 100% family safe and any chat/communication feature could be missused against that. A welcome feature though, now i'd only need friends.
Never played Wind Waker so that would be nice. Given the insane new prices i wonder if they adjust their online prices as well ... because then i would lose interest quickly ...
Currently i don't see why i would invest so much besides owning it out of principal. The OG released with 2 exclusives or 3? That would be a whole other story but with Mario Kart alone?
Has been since the 2019 mass layoff i guess. Their galaxy development was questionable at best since then. Only noticeable action was marketing. I see CDPR/GOG pretty critic with their new billionaire CEO nowadays, sadly.
Boosts are marked as such and recognizable, the posts i am seeing are common posts from accounts i don't follow. Here in the middle is an account i don't follow, at the bottom is a boosted post. The feed is my home fed in Elk, it is the same on the website.
