GG, give me your Hogwarts Legacy impressions. I never finished it so I look forward to diving into the game again.
Will do when I start it. Need to polish off Cyberpunk then DK Bananza. So I'll probably just test it out first.
My secondary school was very much like a Hogwarts experience minus the magic. It was this old Elizabethan building and we were all in blazers with strict teachers.
So, anyone pumped for Hollow Knight Silksong? Years in the making, hype level skyrocketing and it's finally nearly here. 4th of september! Whoooo!
Anyhow, I probably won't be getting it immediately. I've got plenty of stuff to play as is, but am definitely looking forward to playing it in due time.
I beat Bananza yesterday. I heard complaints about how the game was too easy, so I hardly upgraded anything during my playthrough. Played through the whole game with 3 hearts and only one apple container, effectively making most bosses and even enemies one hit kill you. And even then I breezed through it. Only the final boss gave me some real trouble to the point where I was contemplating finally upgrading some health, but I managed to beat him in the end. Now on to the post game content!
I'll play Hollow-knight some day.Wrist hurts so I can't write more right now. Its decent.
Never played the previous game but this is hitting Game Pass day one so I’ll definitely check it out.
I was wondering why the colours were all washed out. I tried fixing it through the Switch2 system settings.
Tried to fix it through the in game menus. No luck.
I had to disable it on Switch2 systems settings on both toggles, both the overall toggle and the compatible titles toggle.
Finally the game looks good.
Game seems nice so far. It's a little surreal to play such an English game for me. Games are usually very American or Japanese, so this feels very welcoming and familiar to me.
Some shadows are awful, the hair is a bit aliased but otherwise quality is good once hdr is disabled.
I chose Ravenclaw as it sounded the most like me, had instant regret when meeting my fellow members.
One talking endlessly about her pot plants, the other about the stars. I wanted to die inside.
Hate the perilously slow enforced walking pace. The controls feel decent, plays like a 3rd person combat game at times.
I had to get through the long opening before I could enable gyro controls. The sensitivity needs tweaking, but it already shows promise.
It controls more like an over the shoulder third person shooter and you can manually just aim at your target.
The story and atmosphere feels spot on for the franchise, pretty impressed by that aspect.
The students character designs seem weirdly off. Some more photogenic, less freckled peeps would be nice. These students all look like they were raised under the staircase from birth.
Had me rolling.
I think I've made my feelings on Hollow Knight fairly clear in this forum, and I am definitely looking forward to playing this. I'm a little wary of the control scheme, as I think it's going to be a little more complicated than Hollow Knight was. Not necessarily a bad thing, but given the difficulty of the original, I'm a bit worried Silksong's going to be even a harder.
