I actually have them both, but I can't help you because they're way down in my backlog!

not sure I cba with much more of Mana Spark tbh, especially now that I got ETG (and I'm eyeing Blazing Beaks), but I do feel like I got my 1.99€'s worth at least.
It feels very much like a "my first rogue-like shooter", there arent many items and most are useless, the action feels sloppy especially on portable (not being able to rebind keys sucks), just overall feels like a lesser game than the others in the genre. I beat the second boss just now and didnt even unlock the third character (the melee guy which I was hoping would change things up a bit), I assumed I would since you unlock the second character after the frist boss. But yeah, not sure how much more Ill stick with it, it feels like a chore to restart unlike ETG which always felt fresh imo.

I say Wasteland 2. DD is alright though.
This is a weird comment.
Have both, haven't played either yet (backlog... ) :-(
But if I had neither I'd go for Wasteland 2. When I'm interested in 2 different games and need to choose one, assuming both are considered good (they are - and actually Wasteland 2 as a game is higher rated) I'll go where I think my support might help things more. I am quite certain Capcom have already decided, for better or for worse, what they will port or develop (lol) for Switch and what they won't, InXile on the other hand is not a given so support there might help more. But that's just me (and I wouldn't do it if I am not really interested in a game anyway).
Cool, thanks for the impressions. So probably worth checking out at half off then.
Oh lord it's half off? Yeah if you are interested in it at all, it's totally worth that price :)
Lol. I just meant that it's aimed squarely at fans of those old style CRPGs, and most people that fall into that category are passionate enough about them that they would have bought it day one.

Man I'm super liking Katana Zero. That OST really delivers the game. The game play is super fun too.
Even though you posted to inform another user, just wanted to say thank you for posting this! I've been waiting to grab this game for a while now and will pick it up this weekend! I was just thinking the other day it would be nice if this goes on sale since the new DLC just hit.

It was a test to see if you pay attention.
I'm glad our usual shit EU prices are amusing to you American ;_;
its telling I thought it was real and not a typo lol
I just tried the Hob demo and I liked what I played. Has anyone here played the entire game that can say it is worth the price or wait for a price drop? So many games I want to play right now it is hard to keep up.
Oh glad to be of help, haha. Game is wonderful, I hope a lot of people take advantage of the sale.
I getcha. I just think that attitude ends up sounding like no one should buy good games just because they came out a while ago. Undoubtedly the game's intended audience is bigger than its install base.
Yeah, I heard mixed things about the original release but haven't seen too many impressions of the updated version of the game
Since no one has answered me, I will assume that no one has played Hob here on Switch haha. Poor game.
I think I read it was a pretty good port somewhere in this thread in the last couple of days?
Re: Hob
Not at first, but it was massively improved with a reasonably prompt patch.
I played the game on PS4 and enjoyed it very much - it holds up well all the way through.
I bought it and played through it tonight. It was short but I enjoyed it. Pretty funny/goofy/bizarre as a whole.
It's a great port of a great zelda like. If money isn't much of a problem for you, I'd say that it's worth it at base price.
Given that it's Nicalis, it was an entirely reasonable assumption.
I updated Hob and went back to it this morning and yeah it's improved a ton visually compared to release. I think I'll play it to the end now.
I agree. Maybe I just stink at the game but they're tough compared to the "regular" part off the game.
I kinda felt the same about the bosses but save rooms are always nearby plus after playing them a couple of times I always found patterns that made them a lot easier. It's kinda like Cuphead in the sense that you really need to memorize movements.
I tried Downwell on Steam back in the day and didn't really like it, despite that I wanna get it on Switch because I always prefer console, and cheap game is cheap.
Also I feel like it should have liked it lol. Seems like a game I would.

yes the game is super easy and then the bosses are a huge difficulty spike. Then again all of them are all about seeing the pattern and when you have the pattern down they arent too hard.
Can't speak for Anarcute but Vectronom is really fun albeit maybe a tad bit short? That said I already had experience from Gamescom.Should I buy Vectronom or Anarcute first?
more than me, I had 82%. Its a good example of where price DOES matter (even tho people like to say price dosnt equate quality), because if that was a 20 game like most indies for example, or 15, I would never recomend it. for 8 or whatever it costs, its neat for what it is.
related, but I just got done with Mana Spark, cant be arsed with it anymore as I've seen all the game has to offer (which isnt a lot) and I have much better rogue likes to play to continue with this one. But again, for $2 when it was on sale, I feel I got my money's worth.
Putting your Switch into vertical mode and playing the game as it was meant to be played will make such a difference.
Minit let me down big time. It starts off seeming so clever, and you wonder, "Wow, what other creative and funny ways will they find to waste your one minute of life??" The answer was none. No other creative ways.
Gato Roboto done. 100% at about 2h40m. Nothing is terribly hard to find.
Loading up your final save file is odd, though. You get to

explore the escape pod, which is just five rooms, and go see the dog and the mouse. And that's it, doesn't seem to be anything to do there.
New June My Nintendo rewards are now available for North America:
Nintendo must have the most intensely stubborn resolve to never discount the Switch version of Sushi Striker while the 3DS version is fair game. It's as if the former doesn't exist to them. It's really bizarre. (And frustrating for those who refuse to cough up 50 bones for a puzzle game on Switch when there are countless others on offer that are far cheaper.)

I kinda agree. The best thing about the game is that it's short. But yeah, it's no Half Minute Hero, a game which really used it's 60 seconds idea very smartly and in unique ways.
Heck yeah. Half Minute Hero on PSP is one of my absolute favourite games! Great puzzle/RPG hybrid, with very charming writing. I got the sequel on Steam, but couldn't get into it. Its story wasn't quite as silly, and it suffered not being on a handheld.
Same here, it's a GOAT for the PSP and portable gaming.
Is the Steam version
Half Minute Hero: Super Mega Neo Climax Ultimate Boy
is that the sequel or the original? I see there's a Second Coming thats also $10, is that the sequel?
