  • Welcome to Re:Viewed, the new name for my Game Changer series where we take a look back at games after they have been patched. Starting off with a bit of a doozy we have Dakka Squadron, a game that crash-landed on the Switch in early March, promising a post-launch patch to fix a lot of the issues experienced in the game. There was a lot of mixed coverage on this one, with some outlets showing post-patched footage and praising the title, while I purchased the retail copy and immediately knew that it was time to scream "mayday" and prepare for disaster. Is Dakka Squadron on Switch Fixed? Download the update, fasten those seatbelts, and pack a parachute as we re-view Dakka Squadron on Nintendo Switch.

    Great initiative on creating RE:VIEWED! I feel there is very little coverage on updates for games on the Nintendo Switch despite there being alot of interest from the community. I find myself having to scour the net just to know if a game I want to buy, or have bought, has been updated or not. To not mention the specifics of the updates. Hopefully this will also show developers that post launch efforts to improve the their games on the switch are more than welcome and they help breath new life into their games. Hope you feeling better and happy to have you back! keep up the great work!

      Thank you for your kind words. I try to revisit games a bit but had them under a "game changer" section of my website. One of my friends suggested I change the name and make it a more frequent series of videos so I'm glad to get feedback about it. Next cab off the rank will be My Time at Sandrock which released in a rather rough condition.

    Good video on the update. I was shocked by how appealing the release version was and I knew it wouldn't be fixed properly, since I have other RDG games that have major issues including game breaking bugs and they've not been fixed despite false promises.
    I'm surprised they dropped this patch tbh, even if it makes little difference

      Did you end up reviewing it too? If so, what score did you give it? It's a shame to hear the Red Deer have a history of this. It's an abysmal port, and they told many outlets that this patch was coming in the first few days of release.

      @@whatsitlikeau I gave it a four, I believe. I've heard those promises before, which is why I didn't take it into account with the review. I did keep an eye on the game in the launch month for a patch, but then I just uninstalled it!

    Not to rub salt in the wound, I was able to get it for $5 U.S. but I still wouldn't recommend it for that price, for all the reasons stated. You also can't change the controller settings. Wish I knew Red Deers reputation before I brought.

      Probably at that price it might give you an hour of fun? Replaying it after my original review for footage and testing was painful in my experience.

      Deflector is worth more than $2. I already own deflector and syndrome and am watching this to see if this is worth $2. I'm on the fence still probably not

    • @whatsitlikeau
      @whatsitlikeau  19 днів тому

      I mean for $2 it might entertain you for 30 minutes, and reviews are subjective, so it always pays to take a look if the risk/reward is worth it.
