Nintendo Switch games have often been good at this frictionless experience in relation to starting up a game. Mario Odyssey has like 15 seconds of cutscene then you directly transition to waking Mario up pressing A and you're controlling him from there on. BotW doesn't even have an animated splash screen you just hit start and Link wakes up.

plenty of western games are filled with bloat. probably due to trend-chasing management inflicting arbitrary design ideas on the developers. Remember Anthem? Holy shit.

No but I imagine the reason so many like ALBW is because of the nostalgia of playing the original so you may wonder what all the fuss is about.
As a zoomer I played it without ALTTP and it's very obviously a fantastic game. It does not in any way rely on nostalgia to deliver its experience.

TopicWhat's ur favorite extra deck summoning?

From the list I go back and forth between fusion and Synchro

Xyz really altered the course of the game. Letting ANY two LV 4s make a staple like Utopia the Lightning or Castel or Abyss Dweller fundamentally changed what is possible in YGO and unlike fusion or synchro there's no need to coordinate between material and a card that makes the summon possible.

Fusion is the most balanced, or maybe most under-balanced, in the modern meta. Way back fusion was a strong mechanic because you got a special summon from monsters that could be in your hand and in many cases eg Cyber Dragon the monster wasn't a dead draw if you didn't already have Fusion in your hand. Nowadays though every decent card in the game special summons itself and someone else for free and main deck monsters are no longer really designed to stand alone.

Synchro is cool because you can chain synchro on synchro monsters for cards like Crystal Wing. But synchro is in a strange place where there you can't just get a staple Synchro out like you can a staple Xyz or Link. A lot of cards are on the banlist because their recursion makes it a little too easy to go into a very small handful of actually strong synchros. The balance around these cards in the modern game is not too great.

Link is kinda ugly tbh. VRAINS is the most boring YGO show, you fall asleep watching it, even Roboppi and Ai couldn't really save it. Link was made super generic so it could be the backbone monster type to support other monsters, but that just made Link itself really good once they started printing true Link boss monsters like Borrelsword. And now they walked back Links restriction Fusion/Synchro/Xyz so the gimmick no longer even exists. And LOL at Firewall Dragon, the anime main boss monster, getting banned due to being bullshittingly broken. They recently made an errata... like two years after Vrains ended, nice job.

Pendulum got me back into YGO. It felt like a very fresh approach to the game. Unlike other card type additions, pendulum is just an alternative way to play, and doesn't force other decks to use it to compete. And pendulum as a concept isn't even inherently busted. It starts as a -2 and you need to be able to churn through a ton of material to make the potential plusses on summon meaningful. It just so happens that Performapal and later PendMagicians were some really busted archetypes. All these cards just throw +1 and +2s at you because Konami couldn't be assed to treat pendulum with care. Now Pendulums are still restricted to summoning to Linked spaces from the extra deck, which overbalances PendMagicians while making every other Pendulum archetype in the game's history literally unplayable. And to add insult to injury, the only real new meaningful pendulum support we've gotten is fucking Endymion, the disgusting wall of text that makes you juggle 40 spell counters. Seriously?? Who asked for this? They haven't even made a Link Monster for Odd-Eyes, whose archetype gimmick is to have a version of itself for every card type... I dont really play yugioh so much after this change.

Have you fought The Fear on 3DS? Single-digit framerate nearly the entire way through. This is hampered even further by the absolutely terrible control scheme. I'm on N3DS, and the nub absolutely doesn't cut it. I can't even imagine what base 3DS players have to deal with. I had to do the quick kill on him because there's just no other consistent way to win.
I played on the first edition of the 3DS I was nearly an ambassador and I never had any serious issue with the framerate. It's probably uncomfortable if you're used to the PS2 framerate but it really is manageable. I've beat The Fear doing foxhound run on extreme on 3ds soooo

You have to keep in mind I was like 12 when I played Snake Eater 3D I'm not sure I knew what framerates even are. I do remember looking for a shooter game or something for my 3DS and I saw the blurb for it on GameFAQs and I thought it sounded so cool

October 16, 1962. The President of the United States received word that the Soviet Union had deployed nuclear missiles in Cuba. The world trembled in fear as the prospect of nuclear war loomed ever closer. After days of tense negotiations, the Soviets finally agreed on the 28th to withdraw their missiles from Cuban soil. With the resolution of this incident, later to be known as the Cuban Missile Crisis, it seemed that humanity had survived yet another threat to its existence.

However, there was a secret condition in the deal that put an end to the crisis. Nokolai Stepanovich Sokolov, a Soviet scientist who had defected to the West, was to be sent back to the Soviet Union. The U.S. government agreed to this stipulation, and returned Sokolov back to his native land. Little did they know that Sokolov was to be the designer of a nightmarish weapon. Now, with Sokolov back in their hands, the Soviets are ready to resume its development. If this weapon is completed, it will mark the beginning of a new age of fear.

August 1964. Realizing at last the urgency of the situation, the CIA forms a plan to recapture Sokolov. They dispatch the covert FOX unit to Sokolov's research facility, located to the south of the great Soviet fortress of Groznyj Grad. Led by former SAS member Major Zero, FOX is a next-generation special-forces unit that operates both as a specialized combat group and as a covert intelligence outfit. The FOX unit's modus operandi is to send a single agent, backed by radio support from afar, into enemy territory to carry out solo sneaking missions.

August 24. A lone soldier swoops down from out of the blue. The man's code name is Naked Snake.
This blurb filled me with so much interest and intrigue. Also I was afraid my mom wouldn't approve of it because of the word 'naked' in his code name lmao. But at the same time I thought that just made it cooler because someone with an unusual code name like that must be very interesting.

Playing as a kid on the 3DS remake I'd call all the time and it felt like there was endless audio content. Snake and Zero will have a discussion about JFK's call for a man on the moon, and Zero cant really imagine it while Snake has a lot of faith in the idea.

If you pick up the glow-in-the-dark mushrooms, Snake can ask Paramedic if eating them will recharge the batteries of his equipment, which Paramedic balks at. If you eat the mushrooms (discovering they really do recharge your batteries) and call back, Snake will say so, and you will hear Paramedic, Zero, and Sigint crowding around Paramedic's desk and whispering about whether Snake is mentally compromised and may need to abort the mission.
