    As someone who tracks game time obsessively on How Long to Beat, the switch's lack of activity log and rounding of playtime to 5hr increments is infuriating.

    • @IonSquared
      @IonSquared Před 3 lety +50

      Like...the system is obviously already tracking time played. It makes no sense at all why times are only in 5 hour increments. They're not actually rounded up either - you could have played 19:59 on a game and it would say 15 hours or more until you play that last minute.
      This is no biggie for games like BotW, but a game that's 5 to 10 hours, well that's a significant portion of time not accurately represented.

    I've got 300+ hours clocked in Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling. It's SUCH a fantastic game that lets you create super creative medal layouts and lets you play any way you want. Glass cannon? Evenly distributed stats? Tanky build? Support build? Anything works on any of your three party members. The characters are incredibly charming and there's SO much detail put into the world and its lore and character backstories. The writing is funny and has so many little details here and there that I've loved noticing on replaying, which leads me to my next point.
    This game is SO damn replayable thanks to the presence of menu codes. There's a code that randomizes medal locations (with customizable seeds!), a code that makes you spend money to level up but makes medals super cheap to equip, there's a code that decreases the window for blocking to be more strict, there's a code that makes the Hard Mode even HARDER... you can combine these codes as you please to make challenges for yourself or just make your replays more interesting. I've beaten the game roughly six or seven times and each time I find something new to appreciate about it. If you enjoyed the classic Paper Mario games, you're bound to enjoy Bug Fables even more.

    Wonderful video as always! I loved when you guys were talking about how games are one of the best "value for your money" things that people can buy because I just got my Switch last July and it actually got me back into gaming after about 16 years so it has paid for itself a few times over in just 8 months. I was a huge fan of Nintendo 64 and PC games when I was little and even up to the start of high school but then other interests replaced gaming but I'm so glad getting a Switch got me back into it because I have loved spending my time with these games and playing with friends. My most played game is Animal Crossing New Horizons, which I've played for "590 hours or more" which means that I am getting to the point where as far as value for money goes, it has cost me 10 cents per hour of this game which is such a fantastic value! The funny thing is my second and third most played games are nowhere near that amount of time, those are Super Mario 3D All-Stars and Fortnite with 30 hours and 20 hours of gameplay. Clearly, I need to start spending some time on other games I own lol. Anyway, I love your content so thanks for another great video and can't wait for the next one :D.

      On the contrary, the only sentence fragment I used was “All the time”.
      The first sentence contains the necessary verb to construct the phrase, coincidentally being the verb NEED. Given the contextual clues provided in the video by the delightfully charming Jon Cartwright of a play log that he shared of most played games on his system, which, dear commenter, was also the title of the video, would suggest to a person who had greater than room temperature IQ would be able to associate the comment that I had hastily shared with the video in my enthusiasm with the only intention of increasing the CZcams algorithm through creator engagement. The fact that you were so quick to judge my prose as Twitter banter is downright shameful. Let us return back to the grammar lesson.
      While I admit “All the time” was a sentence fragment, lacking subject and predicate, it was written for emphasis on how unnecessary I view, or on this case, I do not view gameplay videos. The majority of the time when b roll videos of gameplay are shown, I place my phone down on the counter and proceed to do more important tasks throughout the day, like washing the dishes or tending to my children. Perhaps a person with your lack of intelligence needs gameplay videos to be amused and reminded which video game the presenters are referring to while speaking instead of providing a list format that I was implying in my initial comment. I do sincerely apologize the this sentiment flew clear over your precious little head.
      The final clause shares two examples of active verbs, paired together for emphasis. While I did reuse the verb NEED, the accompanying verb IS would be considered a helping verb, ultimately giving my final statement of “This is perfect” a full and complete sentence.
      While you undoubtedly were not expecting this type of response or any as erudite as this reply I have so expertly crafted, given the quasi-simian approach suggested by my initial comment, I would encourage you, dear commenter, not to prejudge the prose of the person casualty on the Internet. If you are still reading this I want you to know one thing:
      The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is the Game of the Decade.

    Its called Beerio Kart and you are NOT allowed to drink and drive, so you chug during the crash animation, or at the end of the race before the finish line. At least thats how we did it in college. We also banned simply chugging the beer at the start, since starting behind early is an advantage in the game and we didnt want it to devolve into a chugging contest.

    My top 5 playtimes on Switch:
    5)Super Smash Bros. Ultimate(230h+)
    I barely play online. I collect all Spirits, go through all Classic Modes, made some Playlists and suddenly it was in my top5.
    4)Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition(390h+)
    100% all Adventure Maps and still not even close to maxing out all chars. It's a great chip away experience. I got burned out once and left the game for a long time but than Age of Calamity Was annouced and it was time to go back.
    3)Fire Emblem: Three Houses(455h+)
    All routes. Not really close to all supports. Protect Bernadetta. Easily in my top 5 Switch games and probably top 5 games over all too.
    2)Pokémon Shield(475h+)
    Not here for another Gen8 warlike discussion. I'm just saying that Competetive Pokémon is almost like a complete different half of the games. If you like Pokémon I can recommand it a lot. Take a random rental team and try a couple of games. Maybe it's something for you or maybe it's not. Gen8 is very Competetive friendly.
    1)Splatoon2(1310h+)
    Every Splatfest already make a lot of hours. Combine that with 100+ weapon sets, 4 Rank Modes, Turf war, Salmon Run, 2 campaigns with one being the best DLC from Nintendo and smaller stuff like extrordinary amount of cloths and accessoires with different perks, a neat arcade like rhythm game for fresh soundtracks and just fun. I think Splatoon as a franchise deserves a spot on Nintendos most important franchises and not just "the new franchise that blew up". I mean yes it doesn't have the legacy like Mario or Zelda but it shouldn't be underestimated either. The franchise climbed up for my favorite franchises really quick and that's something I respect a lot(it's not my favorite but it's still impressive).
    For the Jon Cartwrights out there I also want to mention that I got 220h+ in Tetris99, 105h+ in PuyoPuyoTetris and 60h+ in PPT2. I also played through Panel de Pon on NSOs line up(I still prefer Tetris but I adore it a lot). Smash is about to get past by Tetris99. I suppose...you can't fight destiny ;D

    Oh boy, mine is kinda weird
    *490 - CZcams* I don't have any other media boxes/consoles so I use my switch to watch TV, or even with the kickstand, a lot...
    *455 - Brawlhalla* I do have smash, but I prefer the lighter and quicker combat with the dpad controls. Still absolute trash ranked though
    *225 - Animal Crossing* Just reset my island to get a better rivers layout. Some of the charm has faded away but I still want to get all the seasonal stuff and favorite villagers again
    *125 - BotW* Unlike nl, I think exploration is half the charm and completing 100% kinda misses the point, like Odessey.
    *105 - Tetris 99* Love this game and am consistently in the top 10's of a match :)
    I just bought the Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory rhythm game. I'm pretty sure I'm going to squeeze so many hours until I get all the A+++ ratings, great soundtrack and love rythm games
