I bought it a couple of weeks ago - bought 2 vouchers to offset the cost a little. I'm a good chunk into House of Fate Morgana at the minute so it'll have to wait until that's done.

Opening cinematic. Looks fantastic.

Premade. I have horrific memories of what my own creations used to look like.

I didn't get that. It went straight from choosing male or female to choosing the name and the game started.

Really? I must have missed it when I set up my character. Fair enough.

I'm sure in the original Mass Effect you could choose the backstory for Shepard at the start of the game. Utterly pointless, but it's a shame that's been removed.

I could actually see SE doing a deal with Nintendo and the next DQ being an exclusive - at least for the first year. IX on the DS is still the biggest DQ success outside of Japan and it was thanks to the huge marketing push Nintendo put behind it. If Nintendo promised to put the same effort into XII, I could see SE going for it.

It'll be aimed at Switch with an upscaled PS4/5 version. That's pretty much guaranteed at this point given how well the Switch is doing compared to everything else in Japan.

Yeah, it would be nice to see a Nintendo developed 2D Donkey Kong. I'd imagine they'd steer clear of the 'Country' branding and have their own take on it.

It's 2D apparently - fat fingers hit the wrong number.

Obviously Dekay's siren and all, but NintendoLife are reporting a rumour that the Mario Odyssey team are working on a 2D Donkey Kong. https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2021/05/rumour_the_next_donkey_kong_is_being_developed_by_the_super_mario_odyssey_team

It's 2 discs, apparently.

It's strongly rumoured we'll get to see what MonolithSoft have been working on next before the end of the year as well.

And what did you think? I mean, after 97 hours I'm assuming you probably thought it was at least passable. And ignore @MikeBeaver, not everyone can appreciate quality.
