We Need to Talk About Xenoblade DE's Resolution

in Nintendo Discussion 5 days ago

NightlyPoe said: Immersiveunreality said: You have every right to express disappointment over a game with the same pricetag as AAA games today that does not deliver on all aspects. And I have a right to point out that this whole thread is ridiculous. The very title says is all "We need to talk about..." a number. Not the quality of the game. Not even...

Outer Worlds on Switch supports gyro aiming

Motion controls AND targeting 1080p? Nintendo should take notes for some of its internal studios. Hopefully this isn't all fluff, and the game really does perform the way it's being made out to. ...

Wman1996 said: I wasn't overly impressed by the remaster's look, but those are some pretty low resolutions. It really shouldn't ever dip below 480p on a handheld that supports up to 720p anyway. Agreed. I feel like 640p docked and 480p handheld should be the absolute floor for dynamic resolutions on the Switch. If it's a dynamic resolution, at least let it max out at 900p or above so...

The Xenoblade Chronicles Series Thread: Definitive Edition (All Spoilers in Tags)

Wyrdness said: XBX outside of the world has inferior character models, textures etc... that's the trade off for everything it did this becomes noticeable in New LA especially. In a large scale, open-world RPG the experience of exploration (i.e. the world) is probably the most important element. XBX looks heads and tails better than XC2 and XBC:DE from a picture quality...

Bad films that are fun to watch

Haha Anaconda is a gem. I also love The Rock and Independence Day. Wouldn't call them "bad", but they are certainly dumb... and certainly fun. ...

Shaunodon said: curl-6 said: I can't help but wonder if the less than optimal technical results of this game, like 2, are likely the result of the team being split across multiple projects, and if so I really hope their new game doesn't suffer as well. Likely some truth to this. Which is why there's no point making an issue over it yet, until we've seen what they've...

Saber: "There is more developers can get out of the Switch hardware" "Fans will be surprised at some of the upcoming titles for it"

Vodacixi sai ... and yet, throught the video they keep manifesting slight disappointment over every area they talk about. I think it's mainly because most of the improvements are somewhat muted by soft PQ. All of the work put in on effects, textures, and models almost makes the low resolution sting more. If it was a game I didn't feel passionately about, I'd honestly be more...

The "Original Story" - The Kimba VS Simba Controversy, Disney The Lying King

in Movies Discussion on 28 May 2020

Chrkeller said: The video clearly states that the Lion King was "heavily marketed" as an original story, yet absolutely no evidence was produced to substantiate that claim. I don't recall Lion King being billed as an original story, perhaps it was. The clips in the video are taken from promotional bits that ran on a slew of Disney tapes in the early 90s as promotional...

Shaunodon said: I'm guessing you didn't watch the DF review yet, but they mentioned it made some improvements in portable mode over Xenoblade 2, while still not being ideal. It's possible expectations for this game were set a bit too high. Outside of static trees, not ideal portable mode, and underwhelming resolution with occasional dips, this game still looks fantastic. I did,...

We Need to Talk About Xenoblade DE's Resolution

in Nintendo Discussion on 28 May 2020

curl-6 said: I am a little bothered that a team that once pushed the hardware of the Wii and Wii U to astounding heights can't seem to get good results out of the Switch so far. I agree. For me, the visual updates and QoL improvements are enough to bring me back to the game and justify a purchase, but I'd really like to see Monolithsoft stretch a little more in terms of visual...

JWeinCom said: I dunno what there is to say really... If high resolution is that important to you don't buy the game. If it isn't, then buy away. Let's not go down that path guys. You can be both a huge Monolith fan and want more from the projects they release. I own all the Xenoblade titles and would never pass on a new release just because the visuals are a little underwhelming....

NightlyPoe said: It'll probably get a patch soon enough either way. I'm definitely hoping so. We never really got one for XC2, as Monolith seems to be opposed to the idea of tweaking visuals afterward. I love playing RPGs in handheld, so it was a big sore spot in the middle of an otherwise amazing experience for me. Funny enough, I think DF was overly kind on the docked mode. It...

We Need to Talk About Xenoblade DE's Resolution

So let me just preface this by saying that I am anything but obsessed with graphics. At least half of my gaming experiences even today are on machines that output anywhere between 240-480p max. I sat down and played through Super Mario Land 2 on original hardware last weekend (the GameBoy has a vertical resolution of 144). I am also a huge Xenoblade fan. I loved the original on Wii in 480p, loved...

What if?: Bring Wii U back!

in Nintendo Discussion on 27 May 2020

There's a dual screen mention or two in the recent FW updates for the Switch. We might just be getting something like this! More importantly, this would mean DS/3DS games are a real possibility. If the device also had a 3DS card slot on the dongle, that would be the biggest event in recent gaming for me :D Sounds outrageous, I know. As a YouTuber, though, there aren't good official options to...
