      The Banner Saga I'm playing the heck out of the second one right now. Great game guys, I hope I was fair! Mark

    These games are such great pieces of art, and story. I get that its a bit much for people seeing them at a 19.99 release on the switch but honestly for what you are getting with the game is totally worth the money. Speaking for myself, I have purchased both games on my phone, and my xbox and now again on my switch. Didnt even think twice and its worth it all over again. If you do buy these I highly recommend you take your time, read everything, and enjoy the story because, the battles are only the smaller aspect of this game. It gets emotional in some moments as well.

    I really enjoyed this but it felt like they Switch Taxed it a little. What do you guys think?? Mark

      SwitchUp yeah many games where came first on ios/android or console/Pc
      Are much cheaper then on NS
      its a catastrophy!
      the best example are Doom or Skyrim
      59,99€ on release
      Thats too much...
      But im happy that so many games go on Nintendo Switch!!!
      The next big game i am waiting for is mario tennis ace and super smash!
      indie titles are moonlighter
      very good work Mark
      Be blessed

      Bluetone Really, when I looked online it could be had for less here in the sunny UK. I absolutely loved the game so certainly don't take it as too negative. I hope you enjoyed the review my friend. Mark

    Great review! but in my opinion i think its much better to shorten description of the Story for the viewers not to be spoiled and looking to buy this.

    • @SwitchUpYt
      @SwitchUpYt  6 років тому +7

      Many thanks! Noted! It doesn't contain any real spoilers though it's just the intro story. All the twists and turns are not explained. I agree story was too long here though, many thanks. Mark

      If I’m considering buying a story driven game then I really need to be sold on said aspect, so i really appreciated this personally.

    My favourite review channel helping me out in the sales once again. The fighting looks like chess, I'm not sure about that but I like the idea of the story.

      Michael Mechanical Such a good game. I hope they do a reduced price when the second is bought and the third. Well worth your time this one. Mark

    I looooove this game! Bought it and the second one for both pc and switch and then the third one for switch.
    The first one is the one I enjoyed the most so far, though I haven't completed the third one yet. Half way through probably..
    The gameplay mechanics gets better in the latter two however, mostly thanks to more types of troops.
    And art style and sound... omg

    Can I ask for help please? Tempted to buy the trilogy version (all games) for the switch (£28) not bothered by the fact that on switch the 3rd game has to be downloaded. But I've also got an Xbox one and if I choose, can buy the bonus edition with all games AND extra DLC and the soundtrack, an art book etc for £18. Dunno what to do! Probably best enjoyed portably?

  • @cornbreadthedog
    @cornbreadthedog 5 років тому +1

    The game looks absolutely beautiful. I was hoping that this was a hack and slash/side scrolling adventure with a great story-line. I normally hate RPG games but I'm thinking about picking this one up. For someone who's never played an RPG game, what's the learning curve like? Is it pick-up an play or is it like four days or so to learn?

    • @cornbreadthedog
      @cornbreadthedog 5 років тому +1

      Ahhh...never mind. I'll pass.

      These types of games aren't that hard if you're stick early game watch a walkthrough then once you get the hang of it they're not that hard and they're harder only in the early game.

Great video, Good luck! Ign, gamespot and other mainstream reviewers can learn a thing or two from you guys! *Subscribed

      SwitchUp your welcome m8! Honestly with the amount of games to cover, people should know about you guys as often we cover differing games. Even if we both cover the same one then it's still a good idea to get differing points of view.

    • @SwitchUpYt

    Well, I watched the 2nd game's So of course I had to find your review for the first game. After watching both I think I would agree with your scores. Also totally agree with the double pack suggestion...unless...they are waiting for a third game and do a trilogy pack! Oh snap.

    • @SwitchUpYt
      @SwitchUpYt  5 років тому

      Have you played these ones? Very good game. Mark

      @@SwitchUpYt lol no...I only own like 7 games right now...mostly bigger named ones like BOTW for example. BUT! Since I have been watching all of your reviews on these literal gems like omg I have these on my list to buy and try! I love how you give a price at the end of each video also...$20 for a game is really not bad considering most games are like $40-$50 when they release! So far I have:
      Penny Punching Princess
      Yonder The Cloud
      Baba Is You
      Pikuniku
      GRIS
      Abzu
      Banner Saga 1-2
      Dead Cells
      Wonderboy
      Not going to be able to buy all at once...but one game a month...that's not to bad. I was always hesitant to buy unrecognized games because I never want to waste my money, but y'all give such honest and detailed reviews I am feeling confident in my future purchases! Thank you for everything guys!

    Is it just banner saga 1 or is is a bundle of 3 games together ?

    • @SwitchUpYt
      @SwitchUpYt  6 років тому +1

      Just the first game. You cash buy the second at a reduced rate and the third week be available on Switch soon. Mark

    I got part 1 and 2 from twitch prime on my pc, but I haven't used my pc much since getting Switch. Very tempting to give them a try on pc... Maybe when I get bored of my Switch games :) It looks like it might be difficult to see things when playing handheld which I do exclusively.

    You want them to let you know what the effect of your decision is going to be, before you make it?
    That's silly.
    If you wanted that, just Google a guide.

    • @SwitchUpYt
      @SwitchUpYt  4 роки тому

      No but some indication about the possibilities even inferred in the writing would be beneficial to the player. Mark

    • @SwitchUpYt
      @SwitchUpYt  4 роки тому

      Or a percentage style indication of outcomes would be cool. Was just a thought a be fair. Mark

    By the middle of BN 2 i lost most of the plot. There's too many characters, too many back and forth between groups, and the only thing keeping me playing, the story, comes just as tedious and at parts boring as the awful battle mechanics (special mention to BN 3 and the part wher the day count is in purple and you cant even stop to rest or upgrade heroes until the game decided to)
