I think XC1 is the better game than XC2, in almost every way. 2's combat was slightly more interesting, and I did like its crazy system of combos and flowcharts, but 1 did a fantastic job of addressing many classic RPG bugbears, and then the developers of 2 had the nerve to add a fucking Gacha system to my offline game.

Also I couldn't dress up the characters how I wanted in 2, so it sucks!

Announced during today's Nintendo Direct.

YOU BUNCH OF JOKERS

The cheap upscale is doing those backgrounds no favours.

If Kirby inhaled pants, would he wear them like this? Or like this?

Fuck me, Chrono Cross.

OH GOD IT LOOKS SO BAD.

Some classics are best left buried.

Try to score more goals than your opponent!

People mentioning Tingle or Captain Rainbow makes me yearn for the good old days when anything went. Developers and publishers took a lot more risks 15 years ago

Splatoon? ARMS? Ring Fit Adventure? Mario Maker/Game Builder Garage?

I think the films are massively underrated. The first is a real treat, the kind of adventure film I wish we got more of.

Proof that the standard 3 episode rule doesn't always work because its not a standard shonen anime at all. It was slow to start with but once he starts meeting others on the trip it just keeps getting better each week. Blows me away just how awesome it is and the film was fantastic. Put it right up there as one of my fav animes ever made with some truly jaw dropping visuals, the sword effects in later episodes are as close to art as you can get in anime, glorious. Feel sorry that you've quit so easily.

It is absolutely a very standard shonen series, literally every single character is an overdone trope. If it wasn't animated like an OVA, and looked like your average Naruto episode, it would be completely unremarkable.

Engorge.

I enjoyed the first season but I could have sworn I read somewhere it was cancelled, so seeing season two pop up in the "upcoming" section of Netflix was a nice surprise. Looking forward to more.

I've just picked up Rise for the Switch. The last (and only other) MH game I played was Tri on the Wii, but I was far from an expert and have probably forgotten close to everything about the series. Any tips for a newcomer?

My first guess was:

So it's kinda connected to the answer?

Does anyone know if this is based on the podcast of the same name? I've had it waiting in my feed for ages, but if the story is half-decent I'll bump it up the list.
