If this is a bad Direct, I really wanna know what do you guys call a good Direct...
Come on - that list is filled with ports, DLC updates and games we've known for ages. Just Dance and Devil May Cry 2 don't impress anyone either.
I thought the direct was fine overall, but I get why it underwhelmed a lot of people. I think there was an expectation that it would give us a good idea of what to expect in Q1+Q2 of 2020, especially after how awful the first half of 2019 was for many. Instead it only added one game to the schedule (Tokyo Mirage Sessions), and a re-release is obviously going to have limited appeal on an enthusiastic forum like this because a higher than average amount of people will have likely played it already.
As always - I'm sure that the Switch's library is absolutely mindblowing for people who don't own another system, or who for whatever reason haven't already played all of the games from the past 40 years that keep getting ported to it, but it's largely not working for me. I've usually either played them already, or actively chose
not to play them because I know they aren't my cup of tea.
Where are the
original third party games from the bigger publishers? We're over two years into the Switch's life and the only notable exclusive games that come to mind are Mario+Rabbids, Octopath Traveler, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 and the upcoming Deadly Premonition 2. I get that the system is more expensive to develop for than the 3DS, but I still hoped for better than this tbh.
