This game has been on my radar since its initial announcement, but I’ve been on the fence because I was worried it was just a Mario game without Mario.
But after watching the direct a little bit ago, I’m convinced this game is going to be a pinch of Mario, a pinch of Zelda, and just a whole bucket of fun.
REALLY excited to pick this up day of release.
video was so cringy, especially the voice explaining things that I couldn’t watch beyond punch being explained twice followed by just the name of the the second ability being explained, dive punch.
If we get to the point of switch2 piracy or I get a chance to play it on someone else’s dime I will, but this video is selling it worse than plain gameplay footage would have. You don’t have to explain destructible voxel terrain like it was just invented for the first time while treating every digging direction like a unique thing, twice.
The VO was supposed to be cringy and over the top. IMO for adults it’s just silly and for kids it’s that funny intensity. Either way, I’d bet Nintendo did that on purpose.
As far as piracy goes, like… why? Either borrow it from a friend, your library (many rent video games), buy a used copy on discount, or just save up and buy it if you want to play it that bad.
The narration was really cheesy. And it is a little hard to stay tuned in when he goes ‘look you can run! You can jump!’.
DK’s moveset looks good though - he seems like he’s fun to control.
