And preorder it from Best Buy instead. I'm sold.

You played it already I hate you !
Hope it's as amazing as it seems to be.

Last time I got high hype was for XenobladeX. Still not as high but closest it can be up to now.

I don't really hate you.
I know, shocking right ?

i already have a sense that this will be an awesome game, severely held back by the "powerful" hardware that is the Nintendo Switch

Basically we weren't on good terms, but we were having a nice chat about upcoming games and he said that he was interested in "Astral Chain".
And I said that AC was "obligatory" - because I love Platinum Games, etc.
His answer: "Obligatory? Who will make me play? I forgot that I can't talk about games with you, only with NORMAL people. I hate that you are so passionate. I can't just say that I think a game must be interesting, everything must be huge with you" etc.

I mean wtf hahaha
And that was really unfair, I'm a really really big Platinum Games fan.

LOL
Out of all the battles to pick...

He choose the one that meant everything and nothing

It's a Nintendo published Switch game. It's not going anywhere.

....says the poster who keeps buying games at launch.

Glanced through the article and I gotta say that I didn't expect investigation to be anywhere near as in-depth as what they are describing.

I thought it'd be running around following detective vision and doing the eavesropping thing here and there, before getting led to a next fight.

Like, dude.

Concerned about the comments in handheld mode. Sounds like it gets pretty pixelated at times. Hope it's not another XC2 situation.

A person that hates passion, of ALL THINGS, is someone that doesn't deserve a passionate SO, good on you for dumping his ass.

A life without passion is a joyless life imho.

This looks to be Platinums best game yet. I literally bought a Switch last month so I can day 1 this. It's just the style of game I always crave.

I'm getting vibes from Eva, Gantz, GitS, Akira & Jojo.

Again, I'd recommend you get out in the real world and interact with people if you think "the only good cop is a fictional one," because that's suggestive of a dangerously sheltered mindset.

One can vigorously critique institutions and promote change while not falling prey to otherization like "literally all cops are bad."

Maybe outside of America theyre not bad, but the ratio in america is far more skewed than you think and are vastly more interested in keeping up a corrupt, negligent, and inherently bigoted justice system. YOU need to see the real world for what it is.

Doubt it will be like XC2 that shit was so horrendous and there hasn't been game released so far that was close to how it looked in handheld, even MUA 3 with all shit happening on screen looks better than it at it's worst.

This game is pretty much the reason why I've been holding off on purchasing the new Fire Emblem. That and a lack of time as of late. My excitement for it is at an all time high right now.

Decideded not to watch the videos as I want to go in as blind as possible. Loved the few bits I did see around E3 though. Very much looking forward to the game.
