[strongbad]

started playing the "coop" mode of towerfall solo and i really like the game and wish i had some irl buds to play it with

[strongbad]

started raft with some buds- very fun game. i can see it getting old in mid-late game but the survival aspects are well done so far

same. I've also made  myself a promise to beat all the games I've bought on switch. So far Octopath is the last big one.

[AAAAAAAA]

I hate quitting games I start but I regret nothing about quitting Octopath.

god, that world. it's actually not even my least favorite though, that's easily grunty industries.

banjoo-tooie is slow and boring. am i allowed to say that?

yeah. compared to kazooie, it really is. there are still certain things about tooie i really love, like a lot of the theming and the new abilities, and i think terrydactyland and hailfire peaks are neat as  hell, but most of the game's worlds are simply too big and there's too much dead air. and some parts of the game are actually downright confusing, ESPECIALLY grunty industries.

it's crazy how much better kazooie is than tooie lol, and it all really comes down to "less is more." i really respect what they tried to do with tooie, but it's overkill.

[Samus Aran]

that being said, i still like the game a lot overall, but it's no wonder i've only played all the way through tooie like 3 or 4 times, whereas i've played all the way through kazooie like 20 times

oh absolutely. tooie has aged like absolute dog shit IMO; i think maybe it was exciting at the time but by modern standards its kinda lame. kazooie is a way tighter experience in almost every conceivable way.
it's a fine game still, but it pales to the OG

[Samus Aran]

yeah, "exciting at the time" is a good description of tooie. back then, the idea of KAZOOIE BUT BIGGER was actually really enticing, and ngl, it definitely warped my perspective of the game as a kid. i used to think it was better than kazooie, simply because it was bigger. "it's the same game but there's more of it, so how could it be anything but better?"
