#nintendoswitch #cozygames - Hry
I think overall, the cozy community is burnt out on farming games. We need the next wave of fresh ideas and I see plenty in the pipeline or even some cool spins on the farming genre.
I totally agree. And I'm an old school harvest moon girl. I'm manifesting witchbrook for 2024 although I don't see that coming out any time soon.
My problem is that there are not a lot of good farming games. I only play stardew valley for farming, nothing else seems fun enough.
I'm waiting for Fantasy Life. I hope it is as good as the original game or much better. Loved the Fantasy Life on 3DS.
@@gameboard_playforfun I'm also so excited for fantasy life!
@@Summer_and_Rain have you tried roots of Pacha? I've been loving it!
I regret buying Faefarm up to this day. This game was so horrendously overpriced for what it is, I wish I could get some money back from it. 😔
I agree!!!
I was really disappointed with the character customization and clothing options, also didn't like the limited camera view.
Same me to fae farm be a new magical game so much need to gather get wings need flower after flower
Yes! I was going to buy it until I played a demo. So pleased I did because it wasn’t worth the 10 minute wait to download the demo let alone the £50 price tag! Huge disappointment.
I’ve actually been loving it but it is quite limited. I’m just happy to have a farm sim that’s not overwhelming farm heavy
I would love a new Hamtaro game on the switch or whatever new console Nintendo may or may not be working on. 😭 It's been so long since games like Ham-Ham Heartbreak and Ham-Hams Unite.
I would lose my mind if we got a new Ham Ham game! I played the absolute heck out of those, and still emulate every now and then!!
Ya'll forgot Ham-Ham games - but I agree. Hamtaro games need to make a comeback
Omggg! I haven’t played or seen hamtaro in years!
💯 YES
That's crazy! I just booted up my GBA SP and started playing my old games for nostalgia sake. HamHam's Unite, HamHam Heartbreak, and The HamHam Olympic games.
I got the dopamine I wanted and spent this past week replaying them to completion.
I'm the opposite with Zelda games. I would LOVE to see more of the old school style back; I just never cared for the open world format.
The OoT remake is being rumored and we’ll find out after switch 2
same, my brain seems to be wired for the older games, i found those puzzles fun while TOTK - while great - has me reaching for walkthroughs for every temple
I'm in between, I'm not a big fan of the old old Zelda games, but my absolute favorites are wind, waker and Twilight princess. I would like to see that style come back. The puzzles aren't as hard as something like links awakening, but also I don't get overwhelmed by the open world thing.
I feel the exact same!
@therealjaystone2344 they already remade it for the 3ds and you can play it with Nintendo online. I want them to remake twilight princess.
I regret buying fashion dreamer.. I was bored so quickly with the lack of a story and I feel it was very over priced for what we got.
I highly recommend Palia for Switch etc. it’s a free game and it’s incredible! It’s a gorgeous game and I think if you give it a chance you will fall in love love with it!
I'm obsessed with palia on the switch ❤️
Loved Palia. Unfortunately I topped out everything in it and I am not big into decorating. There seems to be no practical way to restart and re-experience the journey without losing all purchases and bonus items.
My issue with shiny hunting is I can't SEE the damn pokemon half the time XD
How can I see if it’s shiny when ITS ONE PIXEL BIG
Exactly! Field of view is so bad for one, and the pixel density makes it hard to even see whether there's a shiny or not bc everything looks like a blob of colour on the screen until ur like 2 inches away from it up close xd 😢
And then you have the mons that are a slightly different shade which is so small you walk by. I'm scared to know how many shiny igglybuffs I went past on route 1.
@@Eeownau should play freedom planet and freedom planet 2 for the switch those 2 games are really fun
You’re one of those reviewers whose opinions on games are ALWAYS incredibly similar to mine, so I REALLY appreciate your honest review of these games! Nowadays I feel like reviewers online are focused on promoting anything/everything for money’s sake. it’s good to know where the stinkers are bc I do *not* have the extra money to waste on mid games 😅 thanks for the vid!
This may sound controversial to some, but I was really disappointed by Paleo Pines. The dinos are really cute, but I expected the game to have more substance and a storyline to it. I didn’t expect it to be a game mainly for kids, I guess. I stopped playing it midway for these reasons. I feel horrible for saying that because so many people seem to love it, and I honestly wish I loved it as much as everyone else seems to, but I think my expectations may have been too high, initially, that I could never really appreciate it for what it was afterward.😔😞
Same!!
I'm so glad I got the demo instead of paying for it. After 20 minutes, I was not impressed.
Reading your words,I immediately think that there are many other games that will definitely be up your ally.You want cozy, but a little challenging.You want simple, but not too simple.You will find many games that fit what you like.Try Cozy Groves.Excellant.
@@belladieciwhy not?
I loved the dinos and spent hours on it but got bored because it’s hard to trigger some of the quests. Also wish they hadn’t insisted on going woke with it ugh
I think GameFreak got complacent. They know the games will sell well, so they don't put a lot of effort into making the games good. Since playing BotW and TotK, I've gone back and started playing the older games on NSO. Like a lot of games, I just google when I get stuck.
I think it’s more an issue of Game Freak having an expectation of putting new games out at an unreasonable pace, so that the anime and merchandising sides of the brand have more content to work with. Game development takes time and the Game Freak devs have expressed multiple times over several years that they want to be more creative with their projects. They’re a much smaller team than you’d expect so, with them putting out games at the rate they do, it makes sense that we wound up with a title where the lack of needed dev time really shows in multiple areas. Usually executives are the ones to blame for rushing the sale of an unfinished project and luckily the complaints about quality seem to have been much more heard with Scarlet and Violet than previous entries.
I was actually super relieved and excited to see during this year’s Pokémon Day stream that we aren’t expecting a new console game until sometime next year. This may be wishful thinking but I’m hopeful that it may be a sign that they’re going to start giving the devs more time to create and better polish their games moving forward. This last point is largely speculative but I think the anime finally dropping its focus on Ash and shifting to a new group of protagonists might be a big factor in potentially allowing the devs to invest more time and effort on future games; with an entirely new group of characters to follow, the anime could revisit past regions and still feel fresh (thus not keeping the anime’s content reliant on a constant supply of new games) 🙏
I'm really interested to see if the next Pokémon game will be better, since they are giving the developers more time. I don't want to get my hopes up tho.
The problem is people keep buying them. I stopped after sword and shield.
@@jameskozy7254 I'm definitely waiting until I see how future Pokemon games look and play so I don't make that mistake again. I didn't buy the dlc for Scarlet.
fae farm should be cheaper just because of how unappaling the characters are to look at, even for 20 quid i'd have to weigh up if i wanted to play as a smug lego
Lmao
okay now you got me curious what exactly a smug lego looks like xD
"smug lego" 😂
I've only tried fae Farm demo but I really enjoyed it but yest characters do have that square bobble head look and I definitely won't be playing it soon as until its on sale I'm not paying £50 😢
The only Pokemon game I liked on the switch is Legends Arceus
Same
I also liked Let's Go because it's such a grind-less, childish take on pokemon that I enjoy turning my brain off playing it while watching something on the telly. Doesn't need huge amount of attention as much as Scarlet/Violet bc of the grind factor, and how hard it is to even see pokemon in them in the first place:/
Me too but I also honestly enjoyed pokemon sword and shield
Legends Arceus & Poken Tournament DX
Remakes liker Mystery Donjon are still nice
The best Story of Seasons game to me is Trio of Towns but it's for the 3ds
For me it's Tale of two towns, also for the ds. I'm still looking for a similar awesome farming game on the switch^^
Omg yes! I still play Trio of Towns to this day and have 3 copies so I could build different style Farms, Outfits and Romance 😂
Trio of towns is so good! Absolutely my favourite
Trio of towns in my head was the finale. Everything after I deny it exists
Yes I love that game
I regret buying Fashion Dreamer because it was so expensive yet short. Pokemon Violet is one of my favorites... I don't really care about Shiny hunting, and I've actually not had any issues with the game at all- not even technical issues.
I find Pikachu is kind of like John Mayer. They’re cute until they start talking. lol
I agree with fasion dreamer, I was so hyped and then let down. I said to friends that it gave me vibes of a mobile game (how empty the world is, the 'multiplayer', the gatcha system etc) and honestly it still gives me that with how events work in the game (you get a few quests, get gems and then you get the next lot of quests) they all give the vibe that there was meant to be microtransactions but they decided not to implement them.
I also could not get into splatoon 3!
And you have convinced me to keep waiting on coral island, I do actually have plenty of games to keep me going and after being let down by a few games in a row that i was hyped for (for the king 2, pokemon violet and fasion dreamer) I very much brought back my comitment of not preording games and waiting to see what the final product is.
Whenever the peach game comes out I hope to see your thoughts on it though!
I wanted to like Fashion Dreamer so much, I ended up getting hooked on Style Savvy despite never being big on fashion games and I thought it was going to be like that. I was so disappointed seeing that it's literally you just dress a character up and that's it, there's no kind of story or extra stuff like Style Savvy. I ended up beating the game and I completed one event, but I haven't played since
100% with you on Splatoon 3, as I had a near identical experience with it. A few years back, Splatoon 2 was one of my most-played games; was always fun, & I rarely tired of playing it. But I felt like all the other Splatoon 3 players were semi-pro, tournament level competitors. So frustrating!
This is a big problem with matchmaking. It was worse on launch. You'd go up against players that completely demolish you.
I'd say I performed well in Splatoon 2. I managed to reach X Rank on nearly all modes. Once 3 rolled around, it was loss after loss.
It's definitely gotten better, but it's still an issue, especially on Anarchy battles. I don't know what happened for the matchmaking to be like this.
I somehow managed to reach S+ and unlock X Battles. It feels more in line with Splatoon 2. So I'm even more confused.
I think now it kinda has more differences but even with that I’ve found the competitive aspect in just regular matchmaking insane. It is not beginner friendly, I don’t care what anyone else says, I have over 500+hrs in the game and I still feel like I’m hitting walls in matchmaking and I’m not “good enough” yet.
I can only imagine people picking up this game trying to figure it out and then realizing everyone in anarchy and turf are out for blood and do not care if you have just started playing.
For Fashion Dreamer, I recommend sticking to Style Savvy instead. I agree with much of your choices
@@nezahuatez I agree!
ahhhh I'm so grateful i hadn't bought fashion dreamers because i can't imagine playing such an expensive dress up game without "quests". i loved style savvy and i wished they went back to the format of working in a boutique and handle a customer's specific requests one at a time
Link's Awakening surprises me, kind of. With these older style Zelda games it basically comes down to talking with every character and reading any sign you come across to progress the game. I agree about the price vs its length and the fact that this the 3rd iteration of the game. But it is a complete remake unlike the first two versions. And the dungeon builder is fun as well and if you have the amiibo you could share your own dungeons with other players and play theirs.
My biggest recommendation for trying different games without being disappointed is buy second hand. I’ve bought loads of used games, including Link’s awakening, for half rrp or less and it allows you to try a broader range of games without spending a lot.
Also check out your library for game rentals! I’ve rented a bunch of new switch games I wanted to play but not enough to buy, totally worth it
This is one of the reasons I think I’ll stick with Steam Deck rather than getting whatever Nintendo churns out next year as the OLED’s successor - the price of games sometimes is absolutely wild!
For Coral Island, this is why I haven't played it much yet - I don't want to get into it and get bored until the whole thing is out
Fae farm dlc should’ve been longer like another story because I quit playing it after I upgraded the conch shells to the max level
we got a second wave still to come so hopefully that will have more to it
I truly hope there is an actual story or even a Mine?? The DLC was so sad and bland
What are the trinkets for? Like do they actually work?
@@naturalQueeP I have no idea
It’s funny cause Pokémon Violet is probably my MOST played Pokémon game. It’s a real shame that the performance is terrible and the lack of Voice Acting really takes you out of the immersion. Hopefully gen 10 will step things up!
For Warriors type games, i love them so so much so i never understood why people disliked them until i realized I've been playing them very differently, i only buy Warriors Games to play with my sister and so the multiplayer experience for these games becomes a little bit less repetitive and a lot more fast paced, but not only that, it becomes a game of strategizing together tactics of how to beat as many missions and side missions in a chapter as fast as possible, if you find yourself not enjoying Warrior games i genuinely recommend trying them with a friend, it's a whole different experience.
There is a game I do suggest for people who have grown bored of the farming simulator cozy games, which is Ooblets. Now there is farming where you grow wacky as hell plants such as one thats a literal spring. But that isn't the main thing, now of course if you want to craft some items to do the missions it's crucial, however thats not the main mechanic. The main mechanic is the dance battles, where in a way its similar to card games since you literally have cards to use to win against the dance battle. This game's main thing is collecting ooblets, and interacting with different wacky as hell characters. the story is like almost 30 hours long for main story, while for the completionist it's 70 hours. It is currently 30 dollars on switch but on steam it is 20(theres a sale going on)
Story of the Seasons, I personally know it’s right up my alley cause I’ve been playing Harvest Moon games since 1999. The OG is Back to Nature that was for the PS1. That’s where all the farming simulation gaming took off because that got super popular and the only thing close to that vibe is Wylde Flowers!
I regret buying Disney dreamlight valley on the switch. I can’t play it because of how badly it runs on the switch it gives me severe motion sickness and Nintendo have been refusing to refund me despite me being unable to play it. It’s ridiculous
Oh my gosh same. I got it for free on Xbox game pass but I thought it would be nice to be able to play on the go as well. So I ended up paying for it on the switch. I regret that immensely.
I actually stopped playing entirely because I can't deal with their cash grab bs.
@@meameowmewmew I paid $105 for the ultimate edition and Nintendo Australia are refusing to refund me stating their terms and conditions state they don’t give refunds for change of mind or accidental purchases. Like cool story bro. It’s literally neither of those things. I’m obsessed with animal crossing and obsessed with Disney but I just can’t play it on the Nintendo switch because of how badly it runs and therefore it makes me physically ill
and they have the nerve to charge us 30$ for dlc even after most of us paying 80$ for the game,with it's buggy ass!
@@meameowmewmewSAME
@@GabrielleTollerson yep! And unlike all other DLC on my Xbox, you can't share it between profiles. So I had bought it on the main profile with the card info and couldn't even play it on my save file. I was able to get a refund and haven't touched the game since.
Bought coral island a couple weeks ago and I'm leaving it untouched until it's finished. From November til now there's been regular bug fixes but no new content so far, fingers crossed we'll have something by March!
Oh my goshhhhhhhhh I feel the EXACT way about coral island. I backed it and played the alpha versions so by the time 1.0 came out I already had almost 200 hours in it.
I was pretty burnt out from playing and replaying/ bug reporting/ the same little bits over and over and didn't want to make another brand new save file and replay it yet again.
I do love the game but it feels like it's missing something I can't put my finger on.
I still love the game and recognize I just needed a break from it.
I think coming in with fresh eyes to a finished game would have been so magical but that's not where I'm at. 😅
Same, I was also a backer. I felt that cleaning up the ocean was very rewarding, until my 4th or 5th playthrough, at which point it just became menial and repetitive. I wanted so much more! I loved the concept of a farming life sim that actually included real-looking adult characters, not some cute little chibis that really made my stomach turn at the thought of marriage and kids...as kids. I wanted more meat, a longer, more complex storyline that was fully fleshed-out, not bits and pieces. It felt, and still feels, incomplete. I finished cleaning up the ocean but there was no closure with the big commercial company, limited depth to the characters and interactions between them, no life in the "life-sim." I put it down. I had to. On to other games, to fill the void until I'm ready to pick up my diving suit again...probably a year or so from now.
I only played a bit in early access & still w year 1 in the current version. Hoping they get more of the bugs fixed soon.
Im glad i got FaeFarm on sale as i agree i wish they would have added more then what was actually added. It feels like its just missing something. I also regret buying Nintendo Switch Sports it just doesn't feel like the Wii version i grew up on.
Fashion Dreamer is definitely not worth the price, but I love a good dress up game. Fae Farm has ruined my patience for loading screens. You know a game I regret buying Paleo Pines. The controls sucked.
Honestly with how half assed the Pokemon games have been for a while, if they did include voice acting you know they would probably cheap out and get the least expensive, terrible options.
Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are great games. Pokemon games do not need voices.
I agree about the voices. But Pokemon does need better programmers.
@@blueberrypitbull87Wouldn't hurt them. Stadium was 10 times better with voices.
I always play splatoon 3 constantly like I can’t put it down and that it just stops. Idk what it is but it just doesn’t keep me playing after a while until there is maybe an update
I feel like I'd LOVE a video of you suggesting all the witchy games you played! The cosmic wheel of sisterhood being one, but I'm so curious as to what other witch-related games you've played that you enjoyed, in just one video! I think there's been quite a lot but I can't remember most of the names of them, but you seem like the ideal person to make a video like that since most are cosy as heck!
my super beef with fae farm is that on pc my save file randomly disappeared after HOURS of playing... three times.
I totally understand about Zelda Link's Awakening, because I feel the same way. I'm new to Zelda, and I enjoy BOTW (I don't fight, I just climb mountains) and the Minish Cap in NDS so I love the art of Link's Awakening, but it's quite hard to play without reading guides, glad that I'm not the only one.
Thanks for talking about Fae Farm and Coral Island! It was interesting to hear your takes, because you were quite excited for them at first. Not bad or anything, just cool to get an honest look back.
I really regret buying Kitaria Fables and Ooblets.
The only thing I like about Pokemon Violet and Scarlet is going around and catching pokemon. And I would love a good fashion game with good story and good fashion in it.
I didn't play the og links awaking but I enjoyed this version and bought the physical of it yesterday to go with my digital version
Coral island also massively screwed over a bunch of their backers. Anyone who backed for the PS4 got rewarded by having the platform cancelled, so they’re just out money. There has been a bunch of other nonsense as well. I backed it, and if it ever comes to the switch like they promised, I won’t bother playing.
Is coral island out on switch? I backed a code for steam and a code for switch, but can't see anything about it being released on switch yet?
I looked nothing came up when I searched the Eshop
I believe she said it wasn’t? Which makes me wonder why it’s on here
I agree with you about Zelda links awakening. I actually played this I believe on the game boy or on the old school along time ago when I was younger and it was OK but even then there was no direction. I rebought it now thinking my older brain might be able to, enjoy it but I don’t again no direction not really knowing what’s next to be done or where to go or what’s required. I didn’t even get past the first half hour of the game and it’s on my shelf.
I had so much fun with coral island for what it is and it feels quite unique both in the world and characters but I wish i had waited longer to get it. Its going to be great when completed!
Loved Fae Farm but the thing I dont like about it is the story is super short even in the dlc
The DLC was actually disappointing. The "pet" system is cute though but I was not expecting it to be so short. I was hoping we would get to know Neppy and all the other guardians.
I got Fae Farm on sale after playing the demo and I don't regret it at all! I also got the DLC for free on my Switch as just an update.
I think that the game is really well designed and a lot of work has gone into it. I find it's my favourite game due to ease of use and my favourite visual style.
I wish I hadn't played through the storyline so quickly though. I loved it so much that I whizzed through it, then I did all the flower colours/palettes/wings, and now even though I love it, without the story quests and discoveries I don't find myself wanting to play anymore as just a farming sim. I also don't feel the need to do any of the job quests because the rewards are things I can get really easily. And the seasonal festival items run out eventually. The DLC while gorgeous, was super disappointing because the amulets for your pet critters are pretty much useless unless you're still completing the storyline. There's no incentive really aside from wanting to complete your almanac.
I wish there were more furniture options. The recent update did fix building mode not pausing the game, and it'll make flower breeding easier for people. I've never found the game glitchy on my OLED. They said their next DLC will address the issues with relationships and boring NPCs, but I really hope it includes more storyline and more goals or unique rewards. I need to be told what to do, and I need my dopamine fix!
I don't regret buying the game, I think it's magical and a lot of fun! I would like to play it again more slowly, this time with the critter amulets to assist.
Games I WANT ON THE SWITCH are My Sims Kindomand the TinkerBell games
I absolutely LOVE all the mysims games, rly wish they remade the original from the wii/PC, kingdoms, and agents 😢❤
I would love a tinker bell game or Peter Pan one
@@bonbonribbonz omg yes
@@Dreamerlighting oooh I never got to play the second TB game of the Peter Pan
Start with the non-spiciest…starts with my favorite Switch game and my favorite Pokémon game. It’s totally cool! 😅 I’m not saying you’re wrong about your own opinion, I’m just surprised. Although I’ve noticed over watching several of your videos that we have pretty opposite tastes. I also love Fashion Dreamer, Link’s Awakening, and SoS: A Wonderful Life. I do definitely agree about Splatoon 3, even being a higher skill player with over 700 hours in the game. There’s so much I preferred about Splatoon 2. Great video overall and it’s interesting to hear someone else’s takes.
Thank you for mentioning Fae Farm. It’s on sale right now but I was still on the fence. I think I’ll continue to wait and see what the next DLC is and *maybe* get it next time it’s on sale.
Pioneers of Olive Town was also one of my first farming sims. I went and got it on release day and played it for about 20 hours and I still don’t get it 😅 I basically just stayed on my farm all the time and didn’t see the point of going in town
Pioneers of Olive town is SO bad for a first farming game I'm so sorry T.T Have you played good ones like Stardew Valley since?
@@valkyriedarquese I haven’t spent much time in stardew valley. Maybe I’ll give that more of a chance! I played the more recent harvest moon game and really liked that
@@valkyriedarquese update, I connected my joycons to my iPad and played SD on Apple Arcade for 7 hours yesterday and I’m hooked now 😂
@@mcdonuts2017 Stardew is such a good farming game haha very addictive! enjoy :)
U always have a glow when u talk about games good or bad. I enjoy watching your video's. l get stuck in jrpg because I have to grind but I don't have the time to especially with baby and toddler but i still love my Jrpg . Me and my daughter celebrate our birthday one day after each other this week 😊
I loved House Flipper on my Steamdeck…. Until I got the DLC packs! Now it’s laggy, the fans go nuts….. and it just killed it for me! Which is a shame cos it is really fun and chill !
you were so honest when talking about splatoon 3 i love that. thanks for making a list of titles to be cautious about too.
Coral Island. I completely agree!
I am a backer and I played a little bit when it was alpha and only backers could play it. I saw right away that it would be a very good game when it was done so I decided to wait until it was done. But I feel lied to because 1.0 is a finished game, right? Apparently not for Coral Island. I can't talk to the Merfolk anymore, and story is not even done. I was so disappointed when I found out that "full release" didn't mean "finished game". I even waited a couple of months extra so they could do bug fixes.
Now I'm on the waiting game again, waiting for it to be actually finished.
I wish pokemon would quit holding your hand.... it makes me miss the older games.
I lost all my save progress on Pokemon violet and the past few months I've been slowly getting caught up. What burns me out the most are the tera raids.
I loathe the raids. Least favorite part of pokemon go too
I think raid is fun... Like you look up online for the guide to do it first, like what the recommend pokemon, catch it, or trying to get the shiny too, hyper train it, ev train it... And when you like do tons of damage it feel good
@@darkira2129 I just don't enjoy EV training, and a lot of cool pokemon are locked behind raids, and there's a lot of luck with trying to get good people to play them with online. I just couldn't keep up
@@luciferfaustno pokemon are locked behind raids except iron leaves and walking wake you can get everything else
@@emposiblethegamer639 not pokemon themselves but special moves or abilities
FaeFarm was more a grind than a challenge. The interface was good, but the characters did not grab me.
Sandrock has continued to develop on the Switch. Lots of updates for content and graphics. The developers are still working hard on improving it more. Will never be as good as PC due to hardware limitations, but I found it’s a fantastic game and well worth the time and money.
I half expected Hokko Life on this list. 🙈
it's been on a previous one haah
@@Eeowna now I have to go back, and see if we thought the same. I can’t remember. That’s not saying much, as I never remember anything anymore. 😂
I actually loved Scarlett and Violet, in Violet I got the shiny charm, on top of that in indigo disk I actually farmed an entire shiny team to beat the DLC with.
I actually really enjoyed Pokémon Violet! I grew up watching Pokémon but I never had a console before and the switch is my first ever one and PV was my first ever Pokémon game. So imagine how hyped I was XD That and the fact that there’s multiplayer, which was actually so good, I could play with my partner, we could do basically the whole story and everything together, it was so fun! Sadly, I feel like nobody talks about the multiplayer aspect
A game I regret buying though is Mineko’s night market. I’m trying to push myself to play through the main story because I don’t like feeling like I’ve wasted my money :((
Pokemon S/V had a great story 😂 one of the best lately.
Regarding scarlet and violet... I wish people would stop saying a developer is going fix a game. Games don't get "fixed" they get re released.
Don't get me wrong, I love that Switch games have revisions to fix problems and in a couple cases (Mario Tennis being one) I've waited to buy first party games to try and get the revision with more content or more polish. However to get that, or the "complete" edition like we got with sword and shield, you still have to buy that version of the game. People who have the launch version are left with just that unless they re buy.
For fashion dreamer, I love that it was a creation character kind of game but in nintendo ds, style savy has all of it unlike fashion dreamer. Such as, managing stock for your shop, can hangout/help out customer like going to a festival, shopping, etc, got a in-friend, got a rich guy and more. I want that kind of stuff in the fashion dreamer but nah.
I miss the good story of seasons games. Like, the first story of seasons & SOS trio of towns for 3DS. All switch SOS games were huge flops imo and I’m saying this as someone who grew up with the games (when it was still called harvest moon)
So you thought fomt and awl were both flops they are basically the original games with improvements so did you not like the originals either
When Fashion Dreamer was announced, I was so hyped because I love a good dress-up style game, especially with that kind of aesthetic and style. However, I do agree that it should have only been like $30 instead of $60 at launch because it’s pretty slow when you start out and even after playing for a few hours you’d probably need a change of pace and switch to another game to break up the monotony. As I’ve played more and more, I’ve been able to unlock new hairstyles, eye colors and styles, etc. but again, it is NOT fast-paced. Not a terrible game, but I wouldn’t recommend unless you really love dress-up or styling and then taking pictures lol
I'm really interested in the new Endless Ocean game, but I fear it'll be another classic case of "why did I buy this expensive game only to spend 2 hours playing it"
I highly recommend going online on Switch Sports, playing real players online is sooo much more fun than offline by yourself / computer players!
I too was used to playing locally on Sports games and the online really makes it worthwhile for me personally.
So far the one purchase I have genuinely regretted was buying the dlc pass for Breath of the Wild. Mostly because anything substantial in there is about three tiers more difficult than the base game, which means I can't play it and it is therefore useless to me. I did get some mileage out of all the extra treasure and outfits but that's not worth a price tag that high.
not you starting with my favorite game i've ever purchased 😭😭 SV was my first pokemon game and I'm now replaying all the previous games. I just finished sun and moon and running that game had more glitches (for me at least) than my entire experience in SV. i regret buying everdream valley (animal care is my least favorite part of farm sims) and faefarm bc i just about 100%ed the game during the week they released the game for free.
Just give me voice acting and cut scenes and I will be in love with pokemon again :')
@@Eeownacontacting john nintendo rn!
I was disappointed with Everdream Valley as well. Once the tasks required me to run the entire set of islands to find stuff with no way to really expedite that travel process, i lost interest.
I love scarlet and violet for the story, characters, and amount of things to do but it is very half baked with inexcusable issues
SV are my favorite Pokémon games and I’ve been playing since gen 1! 😊
How do u stream from ur switch on twitch I’ve been trying to figure that out for a while?
You need a capture card
Love that you made this. There was a few games for the switch that I was hesitant on getting like pokemon scarlet and violet and you made me feel good about my choices. As soon as the video started I was like "Ok her makeup is on point and blended for the gods I can trust her word" lol ♡♡♡♡♡ great video kween. Also I came across your video on my google home page wasnt even looking for switch anything.
I got so excited when you said Coral Island cause I was like "Omg Its on Switch??" But no still just steam 😂
The two games I regret buying rn for my switch is Spells & Secrets and Palia. Spells & Secrets has very severe lag issues to the point it makes it hard to fight because there are so many things happening in one closed setting, I have to force enemies away from each other to get the game to run smoothly, and this makes it very difficult to fight bosses especially the ones who summon minions. Palia I feel like should have been a late 2024 maybe early 2025 port to the switch. The game is still in beta and there are plenty of issues on PC that make the game hard to play through already so having them port it onto the switch, a much smaller hardware full of these bugs and glitches and not to mention the severe quality drop, it feels like a big buying mistake. Here's hoping both will get better
Edit: ok ok yeah Palia is a free game my mistake but my statement still stands
Good thing Palia is a free game
Palia is free...
You hoping to play against children to win in Splatoon is hilarious.
Im personally loving Fae Farm although i did buy it on sale. I do not think i would have paid full price but I loving it. I love how big the map is and the storyline is cute
See, Link’s awakening was my first Zelda. The Gameboy version. It was one I played every year until my thirties- but I can’t justify buying it with updated graphics for that price. You’re so right.
I am a warriors girlie tho. Dynasty Warriors, the OG warriors were some of my most played games growing up. I understand how much of an acquired taste they are tho. 😂
I didn't know they remade A Wonderful Life under their new title of Story of Seasons, huh. It, along with its sequel Another Wonderful Life, were Harvest Moon games on the GameCube. (This was, of course, before the Story of Seasons developers split from Harvest Moon.) They definitely made it more colorful and cartoony, that's for sure. Not sure how much they changed from the original since I haven't played it myself, though.
Splatoon 3 is the first splatoon I’ve played and eventhough I really hustled the first week of march to be able to partake in the event (bis u have to be at least lvl 10) I stood no chance in the event, I don’t think I‘m particularly bad, but I wasn‘t much of an ego Shooter type of gamer before so I get what you mean with the skill issue stuff. Bought my switch shortly after Christmas and was genuinely excited for a lot of games but only like half of them were actually worth their money imo 😢
The only one of these I own is Links Awakening. I love it so much. But I’m glad I debated the rest because I feel the same you do.
Honestly switch sports was so disappointing, not that it was a bad game. It just didn't click like wii sports
I had a friend who loved Pokémon I ended up liking it to I guess I’m not missing out now because I didn’t buy it, I love fae farm your right I wish more cozy games where with voice actors
"I wish i waited to get into it" was kind of my experience with Animal Crossing New Horizons.
I don't hate Splatoon 3. I think it's a very fun game, but I completely gave up on the PvP aspect of it and I just play Salmon Run. I find PvP very frustrating like you said. Salmon Run on the other hand is GOATed. I love the mode, and will grind it for hours with friends. I'm also super excited for the Side Order DLC. I'm happy to be just a Salmon Run main and play Side Order. I don't feel the need to touch PvP ever again.
It’s interesting to hear everyone’s different opinions on games. I agree with you and your thoughts on games the majority of the time, from loving No Man’s Sky to enjoying Wylde flowers so much I’m replaying all of it again just for the new update, but I like hearing opinions like these. Funnily enough, S/V and Fae Farm are some of my favorite switch games! (350 and over 100 hours respectively). I had so much trouble trying to get the shiny charm in Legend’s Arceus and Sword so I never shiny hunted in them much and I gave myself a headache trying to complete them. S/Vs story really drew me in and with the dlc (especially part 2) it made me feel like I’m discovering Pokémon all over again while seeing multiple regional forms side by side. It was also the first time I ever got the shiny charm since I had no one to play and trade with until now with my partner :) (we usually share games but I got a 2nd Pokémon game for him during Christmas so we could play the dlc together) fae farm I played with my partner the majority of the time and sometimes with his mom when it first went on sale. (I was *so* excited and he got the game just to join me) It’s a lot better if you focus on unlocking everything in the almanac like all flower colors, all job quests done, all outfits gotten, etc. It also helps if you have someone to play with. But as someone who loves watching things while playing games, they’ve been some of the easiest games to play for me, where I don’t have to focus on much at all
Oh I love fae farm, just hate we had to pay for a dlc we had no idea about on the switch when pc players didn’t
Oh *definitely*. It would’ve been so nice to at least have some idea of what the dlc was and then we can decide if it’s worth it. I was a bit disappointed with the first wave of the Fae Farm dlc too. Hopefully they’re working on something bigger for the next though! I’m hoping they add new things you can do with the sprites since I was sad when they fell asleep and you couldn’t talk to them again. (Especially with Neppy, they were so cute!) So here’s hoping!
Game length shouldn't matter if the game itself is good enough
As someone who used to only have enough money for one game every few months it absolutely matters to some! I will always mention it for that reason
Fae Farm DLC (Archi-pali-go) also adds trinkets for buddies.
You definitely hit the nail on the head with most of the games you mentioned. Mario Golf: Super Rush was definitely not a good game, but I preordered the physical copy and was able to trade it in days later. Maybe the only good thing that came from purchasing that terrible game was that I received the princess and Mario pins as a preorder bonus. Faefarm looked good on the surface in the trailers, but after purchase and play I too echo some of the things you mentioned about it in previous videos, as well as in this video.
Overall, I have scaled back quite a bit on purchasing games and enjoying the ones I already have. Thank you for the spot on video 👍🏾
I haven’t watched Coral Island gameplay before so I am so surprised it’s not a 2D game? I’m glad I watched this
I’m glad I was able to borrow link’s awakening from a friend along with Pokémon sword. LA was so short but fun. Sword was decent to play while i had COVID lol I would have never paid full price for either. I really want grab pikmin next.
Have you had a chance to play unravelled 1 and 2 yet such a beautiful game with a beautiful story so cosy
The two Story of Seasons games from the 3ds (Story of Seasons 1 and Trio of Towns) were legitimately really good. I thought the art was really pretty and they brought some needed changes to the formula. Now we just get cutesy remakes. Feels like we're going backwards...
Any chance of time stamps on future list type vids? Please. Loving the content btw.
I loved listening to your description of Pokémon S/V - really helped me see the flaws you experienced
Bear and Breakfast was an unplayable port.
It's also extremely repetitive.
Have you ever played Harvestella? If you like games with a great story than I can really recommend it. The farming part is not that big but its there and I love the graphics, characters and places 😊
i feel the same about links awakening. it’s too difficult for me and i was always confused on what to do next. thankfully i didnt have to pay for it but i was very excited and it didn’t meet my expectations
For Fashion Dreamer i agree mostly, while it looks good i think you need to see it as it is. It was never really advertised as a Style Savvy like game. While it does feel like you're just grinding a lot, i do have fun interacting with online players and creating outfits
Modern zelda being toon link is crazy, that game is 22 years old
I also regret buying links awakening because it runs bad
Incoming long comment!
I've got a soft spot for A Wonderful Life because it was the first Story of Seasons game I got. It wasn’t the first I played. That would be Save the Homeland, which is super barebones on the farming. In fact, it is more about progressing one of nine story lines to "save the homeland" from being destroyed and turned into a resort. I remember renting that game over and over again as a kid. It got a remake called Hero of Leaf Valley for the PSP that I would love a port for or a new game. I will reiterate that the farming is super barebones and the game is for only one in game year, but it saves what ending you got so you can get other endings. Also no marriage, but there is romance.
Anyway, I was hoping A Wonderful Life would have improved on the original more, but I still enjoyed myself, just not for full price. Also, changing the horse model along with making sheep/goats/ducks more "bubble" like while keeping the "realistic" proportions of the cows/bulls got under my skin more than I care to admit.
My long winded comment is to say, play Trio of Towns if you want a good SoS game if you haven't played it. It is probably the best and the characters are pretty interesting. I liked befriending them to see what scenes I can get with them. Fingers crossed that the new game will be more like it.
I was nailing it with Everdream Valley which felt like countryside heaven. However there are 2 things I dislike. One of them will be riding animals. The pigs have no control whenever you hitch a ride on them, the horses on the other hand have control and you can ride them saddleback or bareback however the framerate when you ride them is worse than Pokemon Scarlet/Violet.
The other thing is that after 50 hours of gameplay, I slept and saved and then play a minigame and after that, the game wouldn’t load.
