New Game+ Expo 2021 - roundup

Finally, someone else I can force to play gunvolt

Shit, you tried it already, misread your post

 

I've also played a bit of Harvest Moon before, back when there was no "Story of Seasons" split. Tale of Two Towns, I think.
Didn't get far into it.

So yeah, I know of exactly FOUR things in that list. I overlooked Harvest Moon in my original comment...

 

You had my curiosity and now you have my interest

 

Yay, Pocky and rocky game is releasing outside of Japan! Hope for physical, gonna watch just to see that

 

I don't think the Phantom Brave remaster coming to Switch is any different than the version that's been on Steam the last five years (other than maybe swapping out the font), so it'll be interesting to see how they price this - Phantom Brave is only $5 on Steam regularly, on sale for $3 right now. And it's Soul Nomad that's getting a PC release later on, not Phantom Brave.

 

So nothing

 

Oh great, now I am

 

How exactly did Aksys go from localising the excellent Zero Escape series into the mediocrity of almost exclusively translating otome VNs, again?

 

Can't wait for Blaster Master Zero III!

 

Chary, you've made dozens of people weebs, congrats

 

he tried gunvolt 1
which um yeah
I have the striker pack on switch and have played the hell out of it
and hoo boy did they vastly improve level design and shit in 2
(and also copen is best character, fight me)

 

I mean, gunvolt 1 was pretty fun, but then I last played it when I was like 6 so it's probably the nostalgia speaking

 

like it's kinda fun but it's also got some annoyance in it
some of the level design is jank, the shot types being tied to the tag cap means you're basically only ever going to use either regular shot or

Spoiler

dullahan for heehoo raw damage go brrr

some bosses, especially elise, ESPECIALLY especially

Spoiler

the rematch with her third and even crazier personality

and basically everything surrounding the non-true final boss
like

Spoiler

nova in both phases

is a hallmark of obnoxious design

Spoiler

first phase: annoyingly difficult-to-dodge attacks? check. a gimmick that makes him completely invincible unless you actively make yourself vulnerable at close range? check. general dickishness? check.
second phase: beefy healthbar? check. invulnerability whenever either of the designated separate weak-points isn't under constant attack? check. those weak-points ATTACKING YOU? check. at low health, basically putting the remainder of the fight on an unavoidable instant-death timer? CHECK.

fun game, many rough edges

 

I didn't like the part in gunvolt 2's pre- final boss stage where you had to sing, now I'm aware that I can just blow into the mic or whatever, but at the time, the only way I knew how to deal with mic situations was yelling, which probably made me look insane to everyone around me

 

since I only played on switch I didn't have to worry about that
musta been stupid as fuck though lol
though at least it makes sense in universe thematically

 

"Hyperdimension Neptunia is getting yet another remake. Neptunia reVerse hits PS5 on June 8th."
WHY
It already got a remake on PS4.

 

So much games for Switch, very happy to own one

 

nothing good here, oh well
but wait, where is YS IX for switch release date?
or this game doesn't count for this expo as it is already coming?

 

Eehhh, more like the poor man's TGS.
