Sunshine always felt off to me and I didnt even think about games critically back when it came out.

There is a level of tedium to it that felt completely alien to me in a Mario game at the time.

So I couldn't keep up with the tread and I have a question
Are we thinking that the next direct will be a general? Or a mini?

I probably shouldn't bring this up here but I'm sure someone else would have eventually. Setanta is at it again!


"I am a real insider who must protect my sources... but I WILL happily put them in jeopardy for internet points!"


This guy first said a Direct was the 10th...
Then the 17th...
Oh it's an indie now!

It'll be announced Friday...
No wait it'll actually be Monday!

It's airing on the 17th...
Now it's airing on the 18th!

Just don't give him attention, he's just stealing things from actual insiders and is saying "plans change" when he's wrong.

Decided to just say fuck it and bought Spiritfarer, Raji, Evergate and A Short Hike. May still get Takeshi and Hiroshi and Manifold Garden, too. Worst case scenario: I've given some Indie developers money for something they clearly worked hard on and were very passionate about and I didn't completely love.

Also, I've decided that I'm now enough a part of this community that I need to get an avatar. Anyone want to suggest one for me? Not Dill Spowser, unless it's a bet :-)

Please give us some impressions on Evergate when you get a chance.

Yep that's him. I still remember all the build up videos to Tokyo Game Show 2018 were he was hyping up people in the most cringeworthy way possible how Sony is going to announce a new hybrid console at a Japan centric event (this alone should tell you that the dude was lying). He even told his best buddies Spawnwave and Dreamcastguy to stay up late and watch the Sony livestream. Obviously Sony did not announce new hardware and everyone was (rightfully) pissed at him. Even ZhugeEX made fun of him because he kept digging deeper and deeper with his BS.
Sony's TGS 2018 press conference was a ton of fun.

I've had some time with Raji now and it's blend of old school God of War and both 2D and 3D Prince of Persias is fantastic (if just a little rough around the edges). They don't make 'em like this anymore.

I might not get to it straight away. Still finishing off Undertale, and I might start with A Short Hike.

How do people feel about me possibly starting a thread to discuss all the Indies that shadow dropped today? Or would that be better served by individual OTs?

SuperMetalDave ratted on his NoA source, got the individual fired, & often misinterprets every bit of information he finds.

Ori & the Blind Forest annoys me because I think the game itself is really good but the story takes a turn that kind of pisses me off and the Metroidvania elements feel almost unnecessary.

It's pretty damn great as a platformer though (gorgeous too)

Good grief.

That's how I feel with Dogma. Outstanding game, but rushed, unfinished.

Any piece of culture can have that effect - think about music, movies, books, television, etc. whose quality is debateable, but occupies a particular place in your memory beyond nostalgia. Same can be true with games.

I'd be interested in a thread that breaks down these games. I'm interested in several, but would love to see some impressions first.

Suggestion for the OT14 name if it comes before the rumored Direct:

Nintendo Direct Speculation |OT14| Tick Tock Clock

It's relevant given the Mario 64 rumors and the waiting.

Spoilers: the lead producer role at Retro for Metroid Prime 4 amounts to nothing beyond that the game remains in development, which we all know.

It's the correct opinion too.

Sunshine is not a very good game. Ya'll need to take off those nostalgia glasses, it was rushed, unpolished, unfinished and extremely janky in spots.

I replayed the game recently and the movement and controls still feel tight. I honestly haven't seen much people hate on sunshine recently except for this thread.
Brings me back to when people hated on Sunshine and Wind Waker when they first came out

Done with work and time for some games!

I think I'm going to start with Raji, then spend some time a little later with Spiritfarer, then end the night with A Short Hike.
