It runs surprisingly well, to be honest, but the input lag ruins it for me. I guess it's because of WiFi, because when I streamed games on other devices - all connected via LAN - I got no input lag.

Looks like they made some nice improvements. Here's hoping they release another demo which includes those updates closer to release. Would love to give the series a go, but the demo left a bad impression.

Tried it just now. Lag is quite noticeable. Given how streaming games on other devices is pretty much lag free, it's not worth pursuing the game on Switch for me. Shame, I liked the idea of Cloud Versions of certain games for the Switch.

Can't wait to try it out

Hmmm...No More Heroes 1 and 2 available on Switch? Interesting. Always wanted to try them out but I missed out on their original release. Something to look forward to for a future sale

So many times I've said to myself: "You really need to give No Man's Sky another go." I guess I might just wait for next-gen

Finally got the time to play more of Final Fantasy VI. I'm now 7 hours in and have... Aaaaaaaaaaaaand it's one of those games...where you can get stat bonuses by leveling up. NOOOOOOO, I had to force myself to fight normal monsters in FFVIII and now I have to do it again? Given that FFVI will be a one-and-done affair I will just let my characters level up. Can't be arsed to do some stat-maxing. Looking at how I've wrecked all the bosses so far I doubt it's even necessary Anyways, looks like the story is about to pick up the pace. About time, to be honest...lot's of dilly-dallying so far.

3 more weeks, ladies and gents

The eShop is lying to me. It says a demo is available now, BUT THERE IS NONE. Shouldn't be too long a wait, though.

@viceview51 Would you be up for our session sometime today?

The two people who picked up a Vita during the pandemic are now proud owners of the greatest handheld ever made. SO SHUT UP.

True Happy birthday

Might not mean a lot to many, but I kinda like it. I'm not the trophy-hunter I used to be but you can be sure that I will share clips of me getting a difficult Platinum

Good to know. Well...I'll still take the risk and have the PS5 in vertical-mode™

Yes, you are Explain?

The PS5 might actually be the first console I'll place vertically. Don't necessarily like the way it looks on the side, but I do like how it looks standing upright.

People are raving about the DualSense. Seems like the real deal. Here's hoping that these impressions convince devs to further pursue adding these mechanics to their games

Just came back from a run, gonna watch all the footage after launch already waiting for the inevitable "this console is so ugly"-, "ugliest console ever", "urgh, look at this shitty design", "it's so big, whaaaaaa"-comparison pics/comments on here. Well...that didn't take long. Edit: Apologies to everyone just coming in to see footage and discussions. I just wanted to see whether my prediction came true. I should've kept it to myself. I won't change anything to this post so my mistake is still visible. Again: Sorry. Let's just enjoy some PS5 news

Yeah, still debating what to do. I'd love to have the money in order to buy a next-gen game for the PS5 launch, but waiting might be better in the long run.

Better late than never I'll probably won't make use of this, though, as I'm set on selling my copy. Not in the mood for Mario 64 and Galaxy.

Well, that changed quite quickly. Once the game gets more challenging, the technical issues become even more annoying. To the point where I might just wait for a patch, which I hope is already in the works... Here's an example: So much clutter... And the more progress you make, the more enemies you fight which in turn results in more effects on screen...which leads to: Stutters/short freezes. Not so fun when it happens every 10 seconds. Quite a shame, as I really like the gameplay, but right now it's too frustrating to continue.

Good decision. There's no real hype around it, it would've launched alongside games that will most likely steal the show and putting it on PS+ will save the game. If it's a good one Can't wait And now we finally have a thread. @Julius was too lazy to make one a few weeks ago. SHAME! Edit: Wanna know the name of someone who looks like a fool now? Here it is: drahkon I already made a thread back in June. Here it is Mods/admins, feel free to delete whichever you want. And feel free to ban me from the internet. @Julius Sorry for calling you out for something that...well...I actually did. But I still wanna shout SHAME at you, so: SHAME.

@Mr_Odwin Nothing But Thieves' new album Moral Panic dropped. I think it's great. A good mix of quiet and heavier songs. The album's theme and lyrics often hit quite close to home... This one's is incredible:

Played it for about 2 hours, here's what I think: it needs quite a bit of optimisation on Switch - long loading times, occasional stutter/short freezes and movement bugs can be annoying rebinding keys is a must add for the next patch have only played in handheld mode and the screen is too small - information about buffs/debuffs/status/monsters/etc fill way too much gameplay is a lot of fun - a great amount of mechanics are in play (e.g. familiars that grant you two skills, randomized weapons, relics providing passive abilities, scrolls that increase your stats) tactical Turn-based combat is enjoyable - you have to be careful with every turn and so far the difficulty is challenging but nothing too demanding classic Roguelite mechanics - permanent upgrades, shops, equipment that you lose when you die, etc. clean art style - very pretty sound and music just...exist...they're nothing special The technical issues are annoying but for me the gameplay more than makes for it.
