really hope the inevitable Steamworld Dig 3 starts you off with your full kit of abilities that you have at the end of 2 and builds from there
things felt really good when you're fully decked out but the game ends really shortly after

i enjoyed SWD2 and Heist quite a bit, really looking forward to SteamWorld Quest

by **yungboi** » Mon Mar 11, 2019 8:36 am

Looks interesting but was hoping for SWD3, more a fan of the Metroidvania type games.

this was my feeling exactly. I felt like pt 1 had a more satisfying ending.

Also this steamworld quest game looks like a turn-based version of Dragon's Crown

I've liked the steamworld games all enough where I am interested in seeing more, but I'm sort of tired of the Flash-style constant swaying movements

i'm enjoying steamworld dig 2 a lot more because of the platforming/puzzle elements. motherload is the flash game dig 1 reminded me of - https://www.miniclip.com/games/motherload/en/

after beating hollow knight, the digs are a bit anticlimactic, but they're fun and were worth it on sale. gonna play super mario bros u now. i've just been putting off a dark souls play through for months now... just wanna play some relaxing games

i'm so bad at 2d mario. i spent 10 lives on world 2 in nsmbu

by **Seamus** » Mon Mar 11, 2019 6:22 pm

i did not get into steamworld 2 at all

by **tgk** » Mon Mar 11, 2019 6:25 pm

I got nsmbu but im only playing for 2 player w my kid and for super luigi u, which is excellent and clearly what nsmbu should have been from the start.

yeah i gave it a good try because of this thread, and probably got close to finish, but it was not for me.

OK now that I got a few upgrades I'm enjoying Steamworld 2

i started up luigi u shortly after i beat nsmbu, and i was surprised by how much i liked luigi u more. game has a real bite to it, and the short levels are really satisfying

i picked up steamworld heist sight unseen and had a good ass time playing the game through

booted up a new game + on evil mode and got pretty far too... i like that game a bunch. solid game. nice.

by **shirts optional** » Tue Mar 12, 2019 8:04 am

my second time through SW Heist I tried to play as the fish guy and bite people as much as possible

by **Smiling Penner-Lite** » Tue Mar 12, 2019 10:49 am

Has anyone played FIFA or NHL on Switch? Just wonder how they play. Haven't played either in years but feels like something it would be good to take portable.

by **thrasher** » Tue Mar 12, 2019 10:57 am

I've been on a little bit of a turn-based strategy kick lately but I just can't get into SW Heist. partly the art style and the flat 2d perspective just really doesn't appeal to me.

by **xxx-xxx-xxxx** » Tue Mar 12, 2019 11:31 am

you guys ready for Baba Is You

by **can** » Tue Mar 12, 2019 10:05 pm

haven't played a 2D mario in forever after all these other platformers and i'm really bad

luigi u's skidding is way worse. it's almost like he's on roller skates

by **tgk** » Tue Mar 12, 2019 10:10 pm

you gotta do a real soft jump in the opposite direction to stall your momentum and hit your platforms

by **tgk** » Tue Mar 12, 2019 10:11 pm

also i can't say this enough super luigi u is the much better game

I play a ton of FIFA on mine in portable mode. It’s definitely a different feel than the console versions and obviously scaled down / doesn’t have the frostbite engine and there is less control with skill moves but it’s a lot of fun still.

Last year when I was working on a job with a ton of down time I would bring my switch and me and one of my coworkers would play a bunch with the split joycons and it doesn’t feel too horrible once you get used to it.

by **Smiling Penner-Lite** » Wed Mar 13, 2019 10:52 am

thanks Cone. And I guess they haven't ported an NHL game to Switch yet.

I played the Yoshi Crafted World demo and thought it was fantastic.

by **brent** » Wed Mar 13, 2019 11:06 am

i wish something new/cool would come out. i bought gris last week and played a little and it's pretty but not very engrossing to me for whatever reason

maybe silksong will get a surprise release when the physical edition of hollow knight is available

by **Smiling Penner-Lite** » Thu Mar 14, 2019 2:45 pm

I never played Castle Crashers but people seem excited about this and it looks really fun.

by **pzadvance** » Thu Mar 14, 2019 3:13 pm

pretty neat that turok apparently has motion controls... cant imagine dropping even close to 20 bucks on that though
