RE: Gaming isn't fun anymore. Help me!
Man, Nintendo is certainly doing things REALLY right right now with the Switch. It is stupidly popular, they are making the right games, and it is only going to get better based on the forecast. "Underpowered" be damned, it is the games that matter and that is what Nintendo is known for.
And that's why I'm loving it. That it is bringing a load of favourite titles across to it from third parties is a bit of a bonus. If the platform basically did the rounds of the classic PS3/360 catalogue for ports, I wouldn't be too unhappy whatsoever.
I'm down with Skyrim portable, but if we had stuff like Mass Effect surface, then the desire is going to be strong!
Skyrim is a game everyone keeps telling me I have to play. Think its about time i gave it a shot lol. Nintendo games just bring out the kid in everyone!
Do you know what? Skyrim is one of those astonishing games that can be, at the same time, absolutely amazing and completely shit! :D
I think Zero Punctuation summed it up in his review of Oblivion years ago, that it is absolutely striving to be realistic and immersive, and yet you get these moments where it completely breaks it in jarring fashion.
Skyrim is jaw dropping. The scale is the real story here, going from A to B and arriving at somewhere new is a pleasure you just don't get anywhere else. But then you get jank. Like when you wait in the centre of a town for day to start, and everyone spawns all together like they just decided that they all wanted to walk out their house at the exact same time. Or the combat, which suddenly becomes an arena shooter as you start running backwards and spamming health.
Despite that, I absolutely love it.
