I had a 5-Star Sothe lying around that pity broke my Kinshi Hinoka pulls in the past.

Boy, people weren't kidding about him being powerful. Veronica still works better for Chrom's main team I think, but Sothe wasn't a bad unit to get pity broken by.

Same, probably because that I don't have that much time to play for now. Once I got all eight characters, I am also deciding to starting which character's 2nd chapter.

Hm... The kid's hair style does look like Rex... eyes though...
Then again, we all know that Nia is a Blade too, so man if we actually see pre-flesh eater Nia 500 years ago, it will be... a bit awkward...

Also saw these on Twitter:

And oh boy we also get to see the King of Torna, which is also Adam's dad. This dude screams both Dunban and Dickson from XC1 lol.

And yeah, in XC2... these two fellas share the same problem lol.

They genuinely believed it would be impossible for them to port the game to Switch when they originally said it wouldn't come to Switch, but some time after that, they were able to get a lot of help and advice from other devs that led to them overcoming the hurdles that were preventing them from making the game work well on Switch. They wanted to put the game on Switch since they held one in their hands, but decided it would be best to give a definitive "no" so that people wouldn't spread rumours that a port was in development. That way, in the off chance they get a miracle and the port can happen, at least it would be a pleasant surprise to people.

Okay, first off I have to give an apology to Gears for Breakfast and AHiT devs since I used to point out them lying to fans. That was never the case lol.

Nevertheless, I am totally fine if they just couldn't port the game to Switch, but I still stand by and think that them giving a definitve "No" doesn't really help people stop spread rumor but backfires them. It would be way more easier for them to go with the old saying "AHiT is not planned for Nintendo Switch" and everyone would be fine about it.

The main hurdle was the fact that AHiT is a CPU intensive game on the PC, rather than a GPU intensive game. And the Switch didn't have near good enough a CPU to play the game at an acceptable performance level. Porting to Xbox One and PS4 was a challenge on it's own but those systems at least had good enough CPUs so that they didn't have to change too much of how the game ran certain things, but for the Switch, a ton of key processing tasks had to be redone to make the Switch's GPU handle them instead of the CPU. The Switch's GPU isn't exactly a powerhouse either so really the whole job wasn't realistically in the cards for them. On top of that, UE3 isn't natively supported on Switch and there are certain features of the engine that weren't built with the current gen consoles in mind. It's primarily designed for PC games.

Um, I checked the article and yes, going "Switch fanboy mode" a bit, but just to let you know in the article the devs never implicated that Switch is the most hard to develop or hard to devlop more than PS4 and Xbox One... sure they did implicated that Switch pretty underpowered but we already know that and the engine was indeed outdated for newer consoles like how many were saying back then. So at least from my perspective, Switch being underpowered wasn't the main hurdle for them to port AHiT to Switch.

Platforms are extremely different, both in their advantages and feature set. What runs fast on PC, doesn't necessarily run fast on consoles, and vice-versa. Imagine the difference between the Nintendo Switch and an old-school Nokia phone - it's a completely different set of hardware, and that has a huge impact on the feasibility. When we started making A Hat in Time, it was with the mindset of it being a PC-only game, so we picked the best engine fit for PC, and designed the entire game around PC.

To put it simple, porting AHiT to all consoles takes time and effort, and that includes Switch. Problem with Switch currently is that many devs often be late to port their due to the fact that Switch is relatively a new console, which is why from times goes on we will see more games getting same-date release.

They did say the Switch is underpowered, they just put it nicely.

What do you think the Nokia analogy was for?

I won't lie. When I saw that character, I immediately thought of Hironobu Sakaguchi/Master Eraqus.

Click to expand...
Underpower was definitely one of the hurdles, but the main hurdle was again, get AHiT engine to even run on Switch since to the engine being outdated.
That analogy of comparing Switch and Nokia phone from my own interpretation, that was the analogy (And also the part I quoted) for saying all consoles are different compared to PC. While I do admit the game porting to Xbox One and PS4 might have less problems compare to porting to Switch, but from this quote alone shows that games that were for designed for PC porting to all current gen consoles takes time and effort. Not to mention AHiT while not looking highly graphical utilizes a lot of power from the CPU... sounds a bit odd in my opinion. Games that could be spec efficient have hard time running on Switch I definitely won't be surprised, but again don't get me wrong I am not saying AHiT is not a good game at any means.

By looking how it runs only at 720p and 30fps, I... probably go for Steam version then since I prefer it run at 60fps. I will still get Switch version eventually if it gets discount.

Just an outside "rant", Switch being an underpower console compare to PS4 and Xbox One has always been something that every single game devs should overcome. And yes, you have many people say it will be an Achilles heel for Switch back in 2017 when it comes to third party support, but now that's totally not the case anymore, sort of. Since I still don't expect games like Red Dead Redemption, Kingdom Hearts 3, Assassins Creed Odysey coming to Switch.

The heck you talking about?

No version of Carmilla I kow has ever done that, even the original.
Click to expand...
I believe they're talking about the model/one of the inspirations for Carmilla, who is apparently Elizabeth Bathory. Carmilla and Bathory aren't related in the books, but in the Fate series, this inspiration/influence is noted and Carmilla is the "true" version of Elizabeth Bathory.

For those interested, there's a pretty good StarLink Developer Demo at GamesCon, and they showed off a bit more Star Fox footage. Full Star Fox cutscene with the crew shown around 1:51. They all look great!

*Today is the final day of Summer Artoria banner in Fate/Grand Order.*

"I've got 130 Saint Quartz. I guess I'll go for one final 30 SQz summoning in the hopes of getting Summer Artoria."

*Gets nothing until the second to last summon, where a golden Saber card appears.*



"Oh? Maybe I'll get normal Artoria, or maybe Salter?"

*Gets his 4th Siegfried.*

"Well... not what I expected, but okay, I now have an NP4 Siegfried. I guess more NP power to my Siegfried is good."

*Screen suddenly starts sparking gold.*



*Sees a golden Caster card.*



"Okay, I may've not gotten Summer Artoria, but at the very least, MAYBE this'll finally be Waver or normal Tamamo?"

*Gets Summer Marie Antoinette instead*



"Oh..."

I like Marie Antoinette, but I was hoping that golden Caster with all those golden glitters when the summoning happened would finally be my first normal Tamamo or even my first Waver so that it would perfectly make up for not pulling Summer Artoria, but alas, it turned out to be a rather disappointing pull.

At least I now have an NP4 Siegfried from this summoning. Looks like I'll have to do all that I can to get an NP5 Chloe von Einzbern and all her Ascension materials to make up for the lack of Summer Artoria.

So in all, these were my summer servants that I got from the Summer event: Summer Tamamo, Summer Scathach, and Summer Marie.

On a positive note, I'll forever be grateful for pulling Summer Tamamo, even if I had to sacrifice roughly half of my Saint Quartz going into it to finally pull her on the first day of her banner.

Best character development since Takumi becoming a happy boi at the beach.

Also not gonna lie.

Starting to lowkey want Veronica in Smash. Oops.

At the very least, I actually wouldn't be surprised to see her as an Assist Trophy.

Good to hear Fox will be fully usable in the main campaign. The more I watch, the more interested I get.

Amazing this is the second year in a row we got a big Nintendo/Ubisoft crossover.

Yeah. I think he's just making a note on the original model for Carmilla, much like he is with Dracula, whereas Bathory supposedly killed alot of women to bathe in their blood, compared to Vlad III who impaled alot of people and used fear to absolutely frighten the Ottoman Empire to fight for the freedom of his homeland of Romania.

Yeah, that's one of the two things that draw me to the game, other than the idea/gameplay. The fact that we can play as Fox the entire time, and that the toys-to-life gimmick is completely optional.

I'm definitely keeping tabs on this one. Anything in particular that you're looking for? If I pick up on it, I can let you know.
