Ooooh! Is it too early to wish for the next Monolith Soft game?

[–] MisterDeutsch@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

My biggest take away from the new FFVII is how I wish I was playing Xenoblade. I’m right there with you, Rancher.

[–] De_Narm@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Definitely my biggest one. If they announce one I'll bite and get a S2!

It was fairly likely to get a mention, but happy it's a September release rather than end of year.

~~95 minutes? Wowza, big one.~~

Oh, Direct is 50m, Treehouse is 95m. Yeah that makes more sense.

Missed Opportunities Thread

If there had been one announcement I would have wished for, it would have been something in the Ace Attorney universe.

Such a weird Direct.

It felt kinda meh, but when you look back, it had such good announcements.

[–] picandocodigo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah, lots of third party stuff, but it felt meh for me too. It's a shame that the Ocarina of Time remake had been leaked. I wish I could avoid leaks, I really don't get why anyone needs or wants to know stuff in advance. The highlight for me was the free demo for Star Fox 😁 (I left my Switch 2 downloading it). The DK Challenges sound interesting too, I'll check that out.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Oh, I try to stay away from rumours and leaks, so was fortunate enough to avoid that.

DK Challenges look interesting but I am not good at that kind of things... they have added digital collectible cards though... such a useless thing, but I want them!

I’m just happy to be on summer vacation and that I got to watch it live with my kids. The oldest won with his bet that they’d show off two or three farming sims (as opposed to the youngest’s bet of one or four).

I was really glad to get a release date for Big Walk. I thought Final Fantasy Resonance looked familiar: it’s a retelling of a mobile game’s story. Still looks good, though.

I’m really starting to hate “switch 2 edition” shit. It’s basically the same hardware, why should we pay for another version of the same game (in case of Minecraft) or any money to have upgraded graphics? HW can already run it in higher res
