You really do enjoy RPGs but the big thing is that you don't like the amine esque look and feel of them and looking for something more series and grounded.


You implore challenge over anything else and the idea to push the envelope futher.

Oh hey I missed something cool.

Punch-Out!! (Wii)
Pokémon Moon
Super Mario Galaxy


Picking three was hard. :p
For one, you enjoy the Wii a lot more than others, love the idea of replayability and promote gameplay over narrative.

Lastly, you like a really colorful artstyle and unique over the top characters.

I'm still blue but I don't think it will be for long.
I gotta be sure to change my title before that.

I saw Wonder Woman sucking from a mile away. From what I saw, people thought it'd be good because it's not so much of a dark tone and more of a fun, action movie.

But the problem with DC films isn't that the movies are 'dark', it's that they are so poorly put together and structured. While Marvel movies succeed critically even with their weaker movies because the movies are at least competently made.

Pretty embarrassing that The LEGO Batman Movie is looking to be the most promising DC film in recent history.

And I can't wait for LEGO Batman (I absolutely LOVED the original LEGO movie)

Pretty spot on, really.

I also do think the Wii was a fantastic console. Obviously it wasn't great from a power perspective, but ere were tons of undeniably great games.

Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario Galaxy 2, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Mario Kart Wii, Mario Strikers Charged, Mario Super Sluggers, Donkey Kong Country Returns, Wario Land: Shake It!, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption and the Metroid Prime Trilogy, Kirby Return to Dream Land, Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, Pikmin 1 and 2 Remasters, Mario Power Tennis Remaster, Punch-Out!!, Xenoblade Chronicles, Animal Crossing: City Folk, Wii Sports Resort, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Sin and Punishment: Star Successor, a slew of virtual console games, and the ability to play GameCube titles...and all this is only taking the Nintendo made titles into account. Nintendo-wise all it was missing was an Orre Pokémon game, as far as I'm concerned. :p

But yeah, pretty spot on.

This is good.

This is when it releases on other consoles.
I'm just waiting on EA now to say that the Switch is getting another sports franchise.

You know the one that's actually the most popular sport in North America and the one that actually matters here in the US that both the Wii U and 3DS didn't get


The other popular sports series that's related to football but a different one

I suppose the support would be nice. But I don't really see many people making a big deal about Madden games in these past few years, at least compared to the PS360 days. It just seems like it "there". I don't hear people talking about it anymore, y'know? And they might not jell with Nintendo's usual audience. I'm sure they are still successful though.

Normally I don't play too many sim style games. Can't get into Animal Crossing or the Sims either. They tend to be boring for me. But I did play the occasional basketball or boxing game, since I like those sports. Despite not being a soccer fan, I got FIFA Street 2 on DS for whatever reason.

Looks like fun, Champ Gold Champ Gold .

Whenever you get a chance:

-EarthBound
-Professor Layton and the Unwound Future
-Kirby's Adventure

Not an exact top 3, but if you forced me on a desert island, I'd pick these three to take with me.

It's discombobulated, it doesn't have narrative flow. It's just very disjointed.""
DCEU Rebirth pls

Mostly accurate
I put gameplay over anything but challenge I do hold in very high regards.

The audience is and still is there. The thing is that it only exist in one part of the world.

FIFA has the advantage of being a lot more global because Soccor fans are massively larger thanks to Europe, South America, Asia and Africa on top of North America as well.

Madden only has one controlled continent of its popularity and it's ONLY North America. Its why EU versions of Madden don't exist as much

You push for a much more whismical style of a game and while you prefer a laid back style of gameplay, your taste in story varies from comedic to dramatic in tone.

And also you like your main character to have a hat

Problems with FE6 #2: extremely long maps.
Don't get me wrong, I love some big maps like Cog of Destiny in FE7 or the Jehanna Palace one in FE8 but you get to those maps by the end of the game, when you you have more and stronger units and are reaching the climax of the story, in FE6, however, all maps are big from the start which burns you out quickly from the game and there are no Breather Levels because of that.
Like, jfc, it took me a long ass time to beat chapter 8 and now they throw me in another map that forces you to go to every corner in it. I don't think there's a single map in this game that's one-screen wide.

Accurate.

I'd even go as far as saying you've interpreted my play style fairly accurately with only a few games. Arcade games (one of my favorites) for example, while challenging have a laid back minimalism to them.

Keep it up.

I have a game,

Give me your 3 favorite video games and let me judge your gaming personality and taste from it
I really don't have absolute favorites most of the time, but I could share. I also could be late to the game, but that's okay.

  • Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
  • Wolfenstein 3D
  • Final Fantasy V

And... go.

1. Awakening.
2. Radiant Dawn.
3. Black Knight.(As of now and there's a lot close choices, but I went with BK because he needs to be somewhere here and he has great traits as a character all around.)
4. Camilla.
5. Wrecktor.
6. Sephirian.
7. Wrecktor.
8. 3-13 Archer Shinon.
9. Mage NPC because he pulls it off sexier than Odin. :p
10. Ashnard.
11. Dheginsea.
12. Nasir.
13. Aureola.(Because of the animation.)
14. Gaiden.
15. Cath, what a communist. Validar because he has no excuse to be as bad as he is.
16. Marth.
17. Griffon Knight has nothing going for it, not even an interesting gimmick.
18. Tellius games.
19. Sacred Stones has such a great cast of main characters, villains major and minor, main units, and enemy units.
20. Conquest, I guess. I just miss things like the fun animations the GBA games had and the magic triangle.
21. Normal.
22. At least one Bishonen/Trap.
23. More Bishonen/Traps. :p Well, that and go back to world building.
24. Alvis/Julius. Fab imperial emperor/Prince with long and fabulous red hair.

Which makes me ask: how huge it too huge?
That's what, a bit less than six miles across the long way? That's not so big at all, a small city would take up most of that.

I swam all the way from Oblivia to Cauldros and it didn't take too horribly long considering, and XCX's map was bigger than this one.

I'm not sure what too huge is, but aside from stuff like PC Minecraft that just goes on for infinity it'll probably take several generations to come even close to an actual realistic world size.

Fortunately I'm more concerned about how much hilarity can ensue in that map than the map size itself, because any game that has to use map size as it's main marketing point is going to come up as pretty pathetic due to how tiny modern day video game maps still are.

*EDIT* Well I guess not on the city thing, large cities are smaller than I thought. Still, this is a very teeny tiny amount of driving distance, so while on foot it's kind of bigger it's still not that horribly big.

Too huge is when a majority of the land is under-utilized for anything.

At the very least, so long as the land is used to provide a more immersive experience, they can go as large as they want.
There's plenty of games that did larger
And even more that did larger than that

That's one way to keep it different to the MCU Spidey.

Also:
Miles Morales!


Wait, didn't Homecoming show similarities with Miles? As in 'best friend finds out' stuff?
