  • @nicked_fenyx
    @nicked_fenyx Місяць тому +8

    Endless Ocean Luminous definitely isn't for most people, and I do think it's overpriced for what many can get from the game. That said, I loved both previous entries in the series, have put well over 100 hours into Luminous since launch, and still play daily. There is quite a bit to do if you want a totally relaxed collectathon type game. Not just finding every species, but the rare "variant" versions of the special animals (think "shiny" versions of boss type summons), finding the largest/smallest versions of each of the 500+ species, collecting all of the treasure, and most importantly for me, working toward filling out the in-game photo album with actually decent shots of every single species, can take quite awhile, and is super relaxing. Paired with a good audiobook, this game is chill central.
    That said, the story is basically a horrendously implemented tutorial. The randomly generated maps are actually pre-made segments randomly put together (so you'll start to see the same environments over and over again pretty quickly). The graphics aren't the best, even if some of the fish are modeled well (you can actually get some pretty realistic looking photos). There is zero danger, which many fans of the series see as a plus, but for some people makes the game feel boring. And there's really zero variety in what you do. You just swim around, scan fish, take photos, and grab treasure. That's it. Sure, there are a lot of fish, a decent photo mode, and lots of treasures to nab and puzzles to solve, but the moment to moment experience is mostly the same. Does that justify the current price? Not for most gamers.
    Tl;dr: I'm really enjoying Luminous, but I'm also dead center in the middle of this game's target audience. For most people the game would feel boring, and even much of the target audience would find it a bit overpriced. Here's hoping Luminous was intended simply to "test the waters" (no pun intended) to see how much interest remained in an older series that was admittedly niche at launch. Here's hoping we get a more fully fleshed out EO game on the Switch 2. And here's hoping the price will feel fair to more players if/when that happens.

I’m only like at 10 rn. It’s nearly the full game. And being able to play before everything is fleshed out is also just rlly cool.

    I'm torn on Stellar Blade because I love action games (IE Devil May Cry, Bayonetta, Warriors/Musou games) but I can never wrap my head around the soulslike genre or games that have a stamina/parry system for combat (Dark Souls, Elden Ring, Monster Hunter). I've tried a few of them and I just don't think they're for me, and I'm afraid that Stellar Blade may fall into that category as well.

    Hmmm wonder why Dunkey gets all the credit?

    I really loved the old endless oceans, this one is a sad weak version of them. I was very hyped for this game, to bad it didn’t lived up to the expectations the old ones set for it

    I was around to see framerate issues and flickering in NES games and all these years later I'm tired of seeing framerate issues and just poor quality in what's being released today. I know the Switch doesn't have great hardware, but make a game that looks and plays great on the hardware you have. I would rather have no Switch port than a bad Switch port.

    First, second, one of those two.
    Edit: That crab game looks crazy and fun. I love the duality of cute visuals with Souls-like gameplay.

    gotta be honest, I was incredibly disappointed to find out Stellar Blade was PS5 exclusive ☹️
