    Just a little warning - if you don’t want to see any gameplay that isn’t trailer footage for Zelda you might wanna look away for that part ! Nothing huge just wanted to give you a heads up!

    I was looking at Bloomtown, but once I heard it was turn based combat I decided against it. I’ve never been able to get into turn based.

    I've been really enjoying Echoes of wisdom. Shrines were kinda annoying in BOTW because some of them were quite tricky. I don't like,missing things so I'd watch videos before I tried them. Also kinda didn't want to do them sometimes because I'd end up with too many weapons. My inventory would be full but I'd need to empty a chest to complete a shrine. The rifts are probably the most similar to shrines- they're mostly much more straightforward. I've also really enjoyed the Echoes. Most puzzles have more than one solution- so you can kinda choose how you want to do something. I've not played other 2d zeldas but it's definitely shorter than BOTW, TOTK, or even Skyward Sword

    Absolutely loved Echoes of Wisdom. It's so much fun. The story was great, the characters/dialogue were funny and touching, the gameplay was challenging without being stressful, the art style was *chefs kiss*, so much detail and content, and I just loved every second of it. Cried my eyes out at the end too. Really hope we get to see Tri and his boys again at some point, maybe in a full game playing as both Link and Zelda....never know you're luck, right? 😂

  • @nicked_fenyx

    I'm loving the new Zelda game. I love how creative it allows me to feel, without adding too much difficulty to the game. I agree that the menu issues are a bit annoying, but I found a workaround by leaving the quick menu sorting option set to most recently used and opening up the journal when I want to choose something I haven't used in awhile. Once I learned the general layout of the journal, I was able to find what I'm looking for much quicker that way. It's not an ideal solution, but faster than endless scrolling, imo.
    As for Loddlenauts, it's funny, but the Loddles (little axolotl animals) were what nearly ruined the game for me. They felt half-implemented, and annoyed me more than anything else as I kept having to stop what I was doing in order to escort one somewhere else so it wouldn't dirty up the places I was cleaning. I actually went into the game looking forward to breeding/raising different loddles, but ended up wishing I could toggle them off completely (or at least make them like other creatures in the game with no environmental impact). If I could have treated the game a bit more like Powerwash Simulator (or "Fresh Start," for something even more similar), I would have loved it and even replayed it several times. As is, I completed the game once and deleted it from my Switch. I know a lot of people enjoyed it, but it just felt like a let down for me personally.
    Outside of those two, I've also been playing and enjoying a game called "Beyond Galaxyland." It's an RPG where you capture different creatures and can utilize them in battle as a special skill with different attacks/benefits depending on the animal. The story is interesting, and so far the battles haven't been too hard. It definitely feels cozy to me. Also, "Voxelgram" saw its first update in years with a bit of new content, and as a huge fan of picross - and especially 3D picross - that's been exciting. The controls on that game take a bit of getting used to, but like any picross game, it's a relaxing/cozy experience for me.
    That said, none of these can compare to the frankly absurd amount of excitement I have for tomorrow's release of the Shrek DLC for Powerwash Sim. I'm counting down the hours... let's go!

      If you enjoy the cartoon style, try a Link Between Worlds and WindWaker, even skyward sword! If you want something a bit more dark but still classic, try out Ocarina of Time, Majors Mask and Twilight Princess(those are my 3 absolute favourites in the series), but if you want open world, obviously Breath of the Wild and Tears of The Kingdom. Both are incredible, and I've probably put a few thousand hours on them by now. xD

    I didn't notice the frame drop issue at all for echoes of wisdom. I had it physically on the Hyrule lite, with it being the only game. Really think that made a difference because everyone apparently says it's the worst thing, tho less on handheld, but literally I couldn't see any issue.

    • @Lexi-M
      @Lexi-M 15 часов назад

      I didn’t have any issues either and I have it on my original switch that has tons of games. I had originally thought maybe it was because I was playing it docked instead of handheld, but then you’re saying you played handheld and had no issues. Not sure but I’ve heard a lot of mixed reviews on the performance. Many said it was terrible and many said it was no issue. 🤷‍♀️

    A bit of a tangent but can we stop calling them 2D Zelda? The isometric/tradition Zelda games have been in 3D for quite some time now and I feel a lot have used the term “2D Zelda” to downplay just how great some of the games in this style are. Regardless, really enjoying Echoes of Wisdom and it’s fun watching others gameplay to see how they solve puzzles!
    Garden Witch Life is definitely a game…that exists…that you can purchase. I recall seeing it on the “coming soon” page a while ago and the screenshots it provided did not do it any favors, So glad I trusted my gut and decided to wait for reviews for it
    I’m currently on the Persona grind (about halfway through Persona 4 Golden) and Bloomtown looks right up my alley. Will probably wait to get it, I tend to like these games with some sort of guide, but does look pretty fun! Also I’ve heard that the mistranslation is maybe intentional as a callback to older games with weird translations, though not entirely sure how accurate that info is
    Caravan Sand Witch just doesn’t look like the type of game for me. If it gets a good sale I _might_ pick it up but already got a lot of games in my backlog I want to tackle
    The Plucky Squire!!! Yea!!!! Let’s go!!! James Turner’s art is absolutely peak! I’ve been looking forward to this game for a while, so much so I’m willing to wait a bit more so this I can pick up a physically version
    My sister has been playing my copy of Epic Mikey as I play thru Zelda and she’s having a blast. Though I am curious if it’s noticeable what was changed since it was originally on Wii, guess I’ll have to wait and see.
    I kept seeing Loddlenaut’s being advertised at GameStop a lot for some reason. Regardless looks very cute and gives strong Slime Ranger vibes

    You can target the enemies in echoes of wisdom and the echoes will focus on that target! It can lag but it makes a huge difference, especially when you originally summon them

    • @Lexi-M
      @Lexi-M 15 часов назад

      Yes! If you target something before you summon the echo, as soon as you summon it it’ll go straight for it.

  • @airyspaw

    GWL price on consoles was 100% set by publisher - it is indeed crazy. But patches will continue to come with community feedback. It is also a slow paced game to emphasize slowing down and just enjoying the simple things. The main story is really cool and it can be finished by mid autumn so not that slow. You get to heal your garden that is huge and see it turn green, with super cute animals coming to visit and they will stay if they have food and homes and leave products. Each character also has a heartwarming story. Hopefully the switch version can feel better after a few patches. I am on PC and no game breaking issues there. Also, there is one coder working on the game, one human that worked himself sick to try and make a good launch with the reduced timeline. I hope those that still have the game will come back and give it a chance. PS: Caravan Sandwitch was amazing...on PC again. The switch is just too old. Mine is gathering dust right now.

  • @evana8751
    @evana8751 Час назад

    Very cute, but short game I really liked is Minami Lane, a kind of street management game… but it has a sandbox mode as well! It looks super cute, and was a lot of fun. Has some bugs with the controls first, but ok can also use the touchscreen, and then it worked as it was supposed to. Still I recommend it to everyone who likes a cozy management game!

  • @chronicallychic
    @chronicallychic 22 часа назад +6

    I do wonder if they could patch some of the performance issues with Caravan Sandwitch. It seemed like the kind of thing that's still fixable, if that makes sense? Not so far gone that you can't do anything about it. At least that was my experience with it. My biggest dislike about the game was not the performance but the way it ended so abruptly 😔

I will be waiting for a discount, simply because whilst it at one point in time was worth that full price, it is no longer a new game! Imo nothing justifies making an old game a new game price!

    Does Bloomtown have any time limits for certain things? I've heard that in persona you need to do certain things by certain days to get specific results, which is part of the reason I haven't played it. It sounds pretty stressful to me and I don't wanna have to look things up. So does bloomtown have anything like that or can you just wait with the dungeons as long as you want to? I mean you said it's chill in the overworld but I do like to prepare myself for dungeons as well and take my time with that.
