I actually dislike Battlefield in Ultimate. The platform placement is really bad and makes camping super easy. Final Destination is the better alternative. Wish you could play some of the other ones like Pokemon Stadium.

The recent balance patch lined up almost perfectly with competitive opinions (nerfing top tiers and buffing bottom tiers), so I'm not so sure about that.

Wait what you can't just announce a release date 2 weeks away I DON'T GOT DA MONEY.

Assuming you give it a shot and it doesn't sit eternally in the backlog, I *think* I have a spare Steam key at home for the PC version

Also Eerieka in the VN topic bought like 2 extra PS4 copies by accident and was mentioning giving them away, so he might be willing to help as well

Yeah it is very complicated too. And basically Links go with ALL types of decks so you are forced to have them now.

Yikes. Sounds like an abandon ship scenario. Glad that hasn't made it into the mobile game yet.

That's very generous of you! Good luck with that - I have an extra Steam key for Fata Morgana and I literally can't give it away to any of my local friends. They don't like reading, apparently.

The two copies per person is by edition. So you can buy 2 copies of the PS4 game, PS4 CE, Vita game, and Vita CE if you really wanted to.

Thanks. I'll try to snag either version for Vita. I dunno what I'll do with my PS4 versions. Maybe give them to someone who missed out.

Is it possible to cancel any of your orders? So you're not buying it, you know, three times. >_>

The PS4 versions don't even have an order limit!

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. I mean I guess its only 500 for each release window, but I still thought this would be easy to get.

I was planning to get a copy of one 'when I felt like it'. Oops.

Also is it just me or did this sell out really fast for a niche game?

Sucks about the Vita version, but at least you got all that sweet CE swag. I have the artbook and it's probably the best artbook for anything I've ever gotten, I actually open it up and look through it every now and then instead of just have it collecting dust in a corner.

didn't sakurai say that most characters' win/loss ratio was about even around launch? I wonder if something changed significantly (like people started figuring out how to break certain characters) or if the playerbase dropping off started swinging thing towards certain characters

either way some of the nerfs seem pretty brutal

This was accurate as of Jan 31:

Sakurai revealed that in 1-on-1 Online Battles, win rates for each character range between 40% and 54%.

In Elite Smash, win rates for characters ranged between 43.7% and 56.8% overall, bringing the gap slightly closer.

He also says 90% of characters have a win rate of around 45%.

King K Rools Win Rate in Online Battles is 51.9%. In Elite Smash, this drops to 48.9%.

Peach has a Win Rate of 54.4% whereas Daisy has a Win Rate of just 50.9%. This is despite the two characters working largely the same as each other.

Cloud is the most used character overall. However, Ganondorf is the most used character in Elite Smash. However, this doesnt mean hes the best- his win rate is only 47.9%.

So far my strategy has been to spam simple Warriors + Equip Cards with Joey Wheeler and honestly I haven't had much trouble doing alright in PvP against Synchro stuff

As someone who's been out of the YGO loop for like...a decade, Synchro seems simple enough. No idea what XYZ is though.

- Naoto is all "Girls can't be the ideal image of a detective" and Yukiko is like "you don't want to be a boy" and Naoto is like "What I should strive for... is to accept myself for who I really am..." I like P4's theme of accepting yourself for what you are, but I'm curious what a trans person would think of situation

Japan has really rigid gender roles, so it makes more sense from that angle.

I wonder if part of the problem people are having with this game is the design. Like visually it just looks underwhelming compared to other Switch games and maybe that's just putting people off subconsciously?

I like the art style, but the character designs leave a lot to be desired.
---

Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

Yeah, it's hardly complicated but quick and easy, and I like collecting lots of cards without having to...well, pay money. Deckbuilding is always fun, and with the reduced LP total it doesn't feel like the ridiculous meta combo decks are quite as necessary to win.

This is hardly a B8 thing. The pre-release impression across the internet of Three Houses has been pretty lukewarm.

However, some people felt it was lacking (not me), and some of its notoriety diminished sooner than other Zelda games, just in part due to the reasons it was so popular not being as relevant as time passed.

Eh I think you're confusing the vocal minorities with the overall fanbase perception. Twilight Princess has been in three game contests and it's done very well in each of them. I think it was at its peak in 2008 when it had the hype train, but it's always been a popular Zelda game.
---

Twilight was massively popular on arrival. It did amazing in the 2008 Games Contest.

Skyward Sword, not so much. I don't think it'll ever be nearly as well-regarded as the others in this poll.

TP has the best gameplay in the series, as well as the best atmosphere (Majora's Mask excluded). It and MM switch as my favorites depending on how I feel that day. Haven't played BotW yet though.

It's such a fun nostalgia trip. I've been playing for two days and I already have a solid deck, lots of cards, and plenty of the in-game currency to spare without having to spend a dime. I just got into a PvP duel as Joey Wheeler vs. Kaiba and we spent the entire duel spamming fully voice-acted taunts at each other. I laid a trap, outright told him I had laid a trap, and he didn't believe me. I guess it was hard to take Joey's Brooklyn-accented warning seriously.

Also being able to open booster packs without having to spend actual money is making my inner 10-year old lose his mind.

Compare this to the scene where The Hound fights Brienne and Arya leaves him to die slowly. Was that a satisfying end for the Hound? Does this scene make bringing the Hound back from that end worth it?

Uh yeah, Cleganebowl was 10/10 and the best part of the season easy

Whether or not Gregor was still 'all there' doesn't matter - the fact that he still existed in any capacity (and he did still exist to an extent, which is why he ignored Qyburn's orders in favor of fighting Sandor) was enough for Sandor to want to continue his obsessive revenge. If anything, it gave what he said to Arya even that much more weight - don't end up like Sandor did, so consumed by revenge that the only thing left in his life is the burning desire to kill a ghost.

Also him killing Gregor by burning them both to ashes is the best, most fitting death in the series.

I think Bran as king is fine, but personally I've never cared much who actually ended up king/queen at the end. The fun of the series was about seeing how the cast's desire for the throne made them turn Westeros into a shitshow. Plus I like the idea of all the 'real' candidates self-destructing so badly that the best choice at the end - excepting Jon, but he doesn't want it in the slightest - is someone who didn't do anything to get the throne.
