I've been relying on YouTubers for first take impressions because other outlets seem underwhelmed given the abundance of indie titles flooding the system.Anyone have recommendations for this huge week? Is there a good place to go for reliable reviews of everything coming out? Feeling overwhelmed by the Switch goodness lately!
So how is Brave Dungeon? Never heard of it before seeing in the Recently added page. Dungeon RPG + Switch is definitely interesting to me, and the price is very tempting. Is it any good?
How are Tower of Babel and Panpaku. I was gonna buy them alongside Golf Story.
Any good?
I vaguely recall among the shmup community it wasn't considered that good so that might be part of it. Not necessarily that it was bad outright iirc, but more of a different strokes for different folks kinda thing. Course maybe there is something up with the port but I haven't really followed it.I've been relying on YouTubers for first take impressions because other outlets seem underwhelmed given the abundance of indie titles flooding the system.
I was expecting Sine Mora EX to be an insta-buy but for some reason Switch reviewers seem much more subdued about it compared with the folks who graded the recent Xbox One and PS4 releases despite citing that it's a perfectly competent port.
Why this released in this state? Well, I'll be candid; we should have tested it more. It's the same build we've used for all platforms and we we're fools for assuming since it works well on X it'll work fine on Y. When we did test it it seems we would beat the levels around day 20 to 30 with a much leaner kingdom, or others were so bad at the game they failed much sooner. We also never tested playing from an SD card. This lead to us not hitting the more game breaking FPS during testing.
We've learned a valuable lesson from this and won't repeat this mistake again. Also, we're working on a patch for the game and Nintendo has given us a priority for their compatibility testing. Our goal is to get it to them by Friday, but it could slip a day or two if we find more critical issues.
And since I was the one leading this I personally apologize to everyone this has affected for not catching before release and I will do my best to ensure we fix it and not make this mistake again.

Yikes, was kind of afraid of that. Really not a YT person... I prefer to read a bit and form my own opinion. Tough to do in a week when 18 games come out that all look varying levels of promising. For now I went with Golf Story (and Mario, but that was the other day).I've been relying on YouTubers for first take impressions because other outlets seem underwhelmed given the abundance of indie titles flooding the system.

Thanks. Skipping Tower of Babel.You already got a recommendation for Panpaku in the thread, but just want to also add that the reviews on Steam also seem to be very positive for that game.
Here's a user impression of Tower of Babel from another thread. It doesn't seemt that good:

I downloaded Picross S, Steamworld Dig 2 and Golf Story now, and picked up Thumper as well because I've heard good things.
Now I'm stuck on the decision on what to play first. Completed the first set/world of Picross and got through the tutorial in Golf Story.
Help me GAF.
Steamworld Dig 2, just because of the fantastic polish. Picross S and Thumper are the type of games you can play in parallel with other main games IMO. Haven't played much of Golf Story yet, but it seems to be very charming.

Thanks guys, but I already have a "mainline game" in Mario+Rabbids. These were supposed to be my side games lolAgreed. Mainline Steamworld and play Picross when you want a break from it. After that, dig into Golf Story, since it's probably longer.
It might be their October 1 updateI'm waiting for that SNES Classic Wallpaper Mynintendo reward... Maybe it'll go up tomorrow?
