Air Riders and DK are on the level of Xenoblade 2 and Splatoon 2. Good games for sure, but not good enough to justify getting a new console for. If not for Breath of the Wild and MK8D, the Switch would've had a similar launch year.

Strong disagree

Since it's called Mario Kart WORLD and the whole level is one giant island... the most logical thing to do for a DLC would be add more Islands that exist inside the Mario franchise. Such as DK Island, or Yoshi's island. DK in particular was extremely lacking in skins, characters and tracks in the base game and I think this is because they're being saved as unlockable characters for DK island. I think the lack of the fav favorite DK mountain level is especially good reason we might see this happening.

>>729114212
We want more actual courses to play. World launched with fewer real courses than any Mario Kart game since Double Dash (the third entry in the series, released 23 years ago) and you can't even play them online because Nintendo decided you're only allowed to drive in a straight line.

>if you went into an art museum where for whatever warped reason they made it so whatever paintings, plays and music genres you highly regard play on a big screen, but in order to see and hear it you had to play a brief game of Pong or whatever would you leave saying the Pong game was an artistic masterpiece or a task you went through between getting to experience it?
This is just ludonarrative dissonance, or the quality of the integration and interaction between the game peice and the other pieces of media in the final work.

You could easily pick examples of ludonarrative synergy, where the game aspect combines with and enhances the narrative in some way. Like how in FFXIII, Vanille having 3 ATB bars before the rest of the party foreshadows the reveal that she was a L'cie before the whole party got transformed (much in the same way that cinematography, writing, or music might also be used to foreshadow).

And disqualifying games as art because they are composed of other forms of art still doesn't make sense. Books, movies, prose, poetry, plays etc are all derivative of spoken stories (or language in general). If video games aren't art because they use text and narrative to deliver an experience, then none of those other things are art either. And if they ARE art due to each media's recontextualizing of its constituent parts, then so are video games.

>There are no lakes, canyons, plateaus, caves, waterfalls... Everything is very 'samey'.
They wanted flowing water, but gave that up pretty early in development.
They reused that type of water for the tar in plains.

I'd like more things you could discover that are worth looking for .Too many added things and the world looks like a cluttered clown world though.
They kinda seemed to try it a bit with Hildir and the special locations she directs you to.
I'd love like, a sword in a stone type thing in the middle of a black forest, something most people won't encounter, maybe you need an item from a swamp crypt to pull it out and you get a 2h Silver Sword, so if you like swords and you're lucky you have a different experience in the swamp than usual. Maybe a Cherry Blossom tree as a rare thing in faraway meadows biomes that you can chop down for seeds to bring back to your base. Problem with rare things to explore for is that players get mad when they don't have the thing so people would complain.

My problem with worldgen is more that the biomes are often too thin, like standing in a black forest and 5 trees in one direction and you have the ocean, and then 10 trees the other direction there's an 80 degree mountain wall.
Black Forest looks awesome when you look around and the only thing you see is more black forest.

The game isn't even difficult. Mistlands are just fucking miserable to go through and there's so many mobs in the Ashlands that you can't get anything done.
>>
>>729104780
I like the game, I like that the building mechanics are varied enough that you can do some impressive things with them, but the survival aspect is a slog, regardless of whether or not you're playing solo or in a group. I've completed all the biomes and defeated all the bosses, and I've got like 90% of all armor sets and items fully upgrades, so at this point I've dropped it because there's nothing I care to do in the game.
>maybe defend my base from random raids?
k but what am I supposed to do in the mean time?
>explore the world?
if you've seen one biome you've seen 'em all. ocean travel is by far the most mind numbing thing, just sitting there and occasionally changing course along with the wind, and very rarely fighting against a sea snake. yeah you can set up a network of portals, but there's really nothing worth doing aside from defeating random enemies and collecting resources
>maybe you should try and stock up on resources.
ok, but for what? to fight the same bosses again?
>ok then why not try and increase your stats?

you see the problem. there is no end game, there is no reason to keep coming back, other than to build, but most of what you build isn't really functional anyway, it just might look nice. it's the same problem that minecraft has; might as well just jump into creative mode and build to your heart's content, then get bored of that and never touch it again.
>>
>>729114476
>maybe defend my base from random raids?
Raids really lost their magic fast.
I feel like that can only really work, if there was enemy AI in the game that made them function like a group.
Not just "spawn x amount of mobs within this area continuously until the raid is over.

Like if 20 Draugr spawned together and were "chained together".

this is the type of game that needs to be reworked the moment they finally finish their blender tutorial 3d models. Palworld is doing something like that right now. They're reworking the whole game to be more interconnected rather than being a mishmash of random ass ideas on a blackboard.

its much better than a ps2 game, but if they increased the polygon count more to make things extra smooth everywhere, you'd need a lot more cpu processing power.

there were a few games in recent years that forgot to cull unused geometry or loaded in monsters are extreme detail and brought good computers to their knees. now imagine every surface is a max quality. im all for it, but people already shit blood that their ps4 couldnt run cyberpunk at 120 4k.

also cyberpunk with pathtracing, dlss on performance and the gamma turned up a bit.
the one weak point is natural stone and dirt surfaces since those are just simple geometry without a lot of depth, like you might see on skin.
And the players eyes not realistically adjusting to light and dark environments.
but its not like those couldnt be added, but the resources needed to do any of this well are expensive.

It's the only game I can remember in recent memory where I started a second playthrough immediately after the second.

The fandom makes me cringe because it's socially inept Gen Z uWu fags or literal manchildren/probably fat bi women making fursonas but cosmic horror.

Anyways post your favorite screenshots, party members, enemies, little things you think others haven't seen.

Lords of the Fallen (2014) was one of the worst games I've ever played. Not worst in the sense that it was inherently broken, but moreso the developer's were just so fucking incompetent and trying to desperately follow early Souls-hype, that it was completely void of anything that made Souls good.
