Switch hacking seems to be going unusually fast suddenly, and although I'm fully aware that it may still take some time (measured in years), it does make me wonder about certain possibilities that a Switch hack could bring.

This is if course besides the most obvious: piracy.
Don't even bother trying to deny it. Most of you are all waiting to skimp on spending.

What I'm personally more interested in, though, is Breath of the Wild. Or more specifically, modding Breath of the Wild.
If games like Skyrim and Fallout are any indication, it shows that great open world games attract those that would spend hours modifying it (either out of personal preference or humour).
I've also heard multiple times that the Switch is supposed to be easy to develop for.
What would this mean for modders?
You think it's a possibility?

Nah, I'm fine with just sticking to calling you out for talking shit.

Not sure what Tonydaexpert means here, but there is, in fact, a Switch pokemon game in the works.

On a more interesting note:
Streaming PC games to your Switch.
And it looks like it doesn't even need a hacked Switch to work.

That would be awesome. With how popular the game is I'm almost sure we will be seeing mods for it, only question is what kind of mods and how in-depth will they be. I would love an unofficial expansion pack adding new dungeons and enemies, or new runes and shrines to make use of them.

What I'd like to see are things like custom dungeons, weapons and armour.
But those are only rather basic things. The only limits to good modding are the modders' extent of imagination, skill and time (and perversion. Yes, this is unavoidable).
I've seen mods made for certain games (mainly Bethesda RPGs, since I'm most familiar with those) that go beyond what everyone expected the game engine to be even capable of.
How in-depth they will be is only a matter of waiting and seeing, because we have no idea ^^

There's always one XD

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
