Looks great, a much needed departure from the NSMB formula, not that those games weren’t fun. Not a fan of Nabbit and Yoshi being locked behind easy mode, but at least it’s lore friendly I guess.

I’m going to be real- I enjoyed BotW and TotK enough, but I don’t see them as traditional Zelda games and it actually pisses me off that Aonuma has come out and said we will NEVER get a traditional 3D Zelda ever again. So the success of the open-world Zeldas is the nail in the coffin for the games we actually grew up loving. The death of the open-world fad can’t come soon enough, most of these games are nothing special.

The ‘Switch 2’ having a camera for literally no reason is extremely on-brand for Nintendo, so I kind of believe it.

I think I’ve grown past enjoying Bethesda’s wide, shallow ocean design philosophy and bare-bones dialogue trees. There are simply better RPGs on the market now.

Love how hard they’re leaning into the inherent bizarro world aspects of the Mario universe.

I absolutely adore the first two Dead Space games and I could not believe my eyes when this turned out to be a shitty corridor shooter/button masher with like four enemy types.

You know a game is going to be good when half the industry cries and shits its pants and begs not to be held to its standard.
