[PLATINUM7]

Freedom Finger looks like a nice point em up.

 

[Gentlepanda]

leaks looking pretty confirmed right about now

hit me with that last announcement lads

 

[Metal Shop X]

Watching the new Indie Direct with Rudolf Theme playing in the background.

It's glorious.

Also, hi fellow gamers.

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Australia Simulator looking interesting

 

[Lollipopped]

I don't know why I'm up so early but ok

 

[PLATINUM7]

Nice, so glad to see John Wick Superhot come to Switch.

 

[BlueMonk]

why does the audio quality on this dungeon defenders trailer suck

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

About time we got Minecraft 2

 

[Dyllybirdy]

Oh **** I completely forgot about the Indie World thingy lol.

Anything interesting been shown off yet?

 

[PLATINUM7]

I for one welcome our new dragon overlords.

 

[Hat N' Clogs]

Anything interesting with the indie presentation? Im at the gym so im not watching.

 

[Gentlepanda]

these interludes are killing me slowly

 

[Megadoomer]

Which has been your favourite Divine Beast so far?

Hard to say. since I've only played through two of them. I think the bird might be my favourite so far, though the only other option is the elephant.

EDIT: since the montage has started, I assume they're wrapping it up.

 

[PLATINUM7]

Oh hey, it's that game that was featured in Travis Strikes Again.

 

[Gentlepanda]

yup

i can feel that last game coming

 

[Gyrom8]

"Untitled Goose Game has been cancelled, **** you"
-Nintendo, August 2019

 

[Megadoomer]

I beat Ori on PC, but I'd probably buy it again. I played through the original version, as opposed to the Definitive Edition, so I was locked out of 100% completion because I made a wrong turn in one of the dungeons, and once you beat a dungeon in the original game, you can't go back in. (by my understanding, you can revisit dungeons in the Definitive Edition)

When you plan a big suprise, only for it to be spoiled by leaks:

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Well that was.... underwhelming. I swear, indie games these days blur together so much you’d think they were all made by the same company. Certainly not a bunch of independently operating studios.

I just find it interesting that a gaming genre created to help fight the stagnation and lack of variety in AAA gaming has become even more stagnant and lacks even more variety than it does.

 

[Rangez]

Well, they showed off Ori and the Blind Forest at the end, along with Super Hot getting a release. Among the rest, that's really about it.

Indie gaming is not a genre.

 

[Gyrom8]

Eh that was alright

Problem was that Ori's reveal was being heavily hinted at and speculated, so while nice, it wasn't really a 'holy **** no way' moment

Also no Goose Game, wtf

Ori reveal be like:

Can Nintendo and Microsoft just get married already?

That would be.... interesting. It would lead to a changed gaming landscape that’s for sure. Not quite sure how that would look. I mean, part of me worries that Nintendo would ruin every series MS has. But then I remember that they’re not really even doing anything with what they have...... I don’t know. I guess I have to be against an outright merger, but then continuing to work closely could potentially lead to the rare resurgence i’ve been waiting for. Then again it probably won’t just because the world hates me.

 

[BlueMonk]

I don't think there's anything I want to buy there but that was pretty cool

 

[Lollipopped]

Welp I don't know what Ori is, so...guess I'm kind of underwhelmed? But that was to be expected honestly

 

[SnakeFighter64]

Indie gaming is not a genre.

Well what do you want to call it? A category? A type? A kind?

Doesn’t disprove my point though.

Who put you on the planet /s

 

[PLATINUM7]

All I really know about Ori is that people really like it. Guess with it coming to Switch I should take the opportunity to learn more.

Freedom Finger I might get for the right price. Cool to see Troy Baker and John DiMaggio voice in it.

The Touryst looks good visaully, as expected from Shin'en. I swear one day I'll get one of their games.

Skate XL looks a bit rough but I'm looking for something that can scratch that skateboard video game itch.

There were some other games that looked interesting to me but I can't remember them right now.

 

[TheMightyP]

Since Ninty and Microsoft are buddy buddy, I guess that means that BoTW 2 is going to be a crossover with Minecraft 2.

Sorry, but I don't make the rules

 

[BlueMonk]

I got ori on pc awhile ago and never finished it

 

[Gentlepanda]

ori runs 1080p@60fps docked and 720p@60fps handheld confirmed

give it to me now

*and sony continues to be the awkward third wheel that nobody respects *
