09./10. [NSW] Ring Fit Adventure # <HOB> (Nintendo) {2019.10.18} (7.980) - 46.111 / 3.016.499 (+232%)

The game has become a worldwide hit, not just in Japan. The respectable sales deserve a sequel and a full franchise. I'm hoping Ring Fit Adventure 2 gets announced this year.

It's essentially a full-fledged RPG with fitness controls, where you are the character leveling up your body. I can see a sequel doing even more with the premise.

Anyone else enjoy the game?

Nice! You're in for a good time.

I've easily put over 100 hours into the game and I haven't even beaten the main story yet. o_o

They've been pretty good, though I also do trail running and other forms of strength training so it's not all attibutable to the game.

I have lost 20 pounds and have seen more muscle definition. I also feel more energetic than ever and I sleep pretty well.

I just started it last week. It's charming and decently engaging. I just really wanna move my TV out of the line of sight of this one window that doesn't have blinds cuz some of the activities make me feel like an idiot. >_>

Oh boy, when I do the hip shake move I just hope that my wife doesn't walk in on me. It's fun to do but I also look like an idiot.

Yes exactly! I've used that a lot lately cuz whatever it has range and I don't hafta get on the floor, but fucking kill me if anyone happens to pass by the window and look up at the loft where I'm playing. Same with stretches.

Also I'm afraid I'm gonna get rekt by my ceiling fan whenever I do a move that involves stretching upwards. I can hold the ringcon over my head without hitting it, but it's close and I do hafta move aside for some moves.

Yep, it's really the one feature that makes the game stand out.

Same. I moved and stopped playing for like 3 months. I finally got back into it.

But then I get hot. ]:

Lol, I have the same problem. I love the fan blowing down at me while working out. It's refreshing.

But then I'm scared I'll hit it when I raise my hands. I've even tested it and realized that I'm not tall enough to hit it, but it still scares me when I'm working out.

Bumping for more celebration of the game's success.

I wanted the game when it released in 2020, and couldn't get it anywhere. then my wife and I got gym memberships, and I never saw a real need for it after that. But every once in a while, I think about getting it again.

I'd argue that it's still worth a purchase just for the gameplay alone. I'd even go as far to say that it stands alone as a good game without the fitness mechanics.

is this game actually good?

I'm probably biased since I made the topic but most people seem to agree that the game is pretty good.

Even if you take away the fitness theme, the game still has tons of content. It even has a separate rhythm mode similar to Guitar Hero/Rock Band/DDR.

Fffffffuuuuu, I guess I'll have to look for it on sale then.

I got it on release but only played it for like 2 weeks

Need to get back into it because I need to lose 15-20 pounds, same story for 2 years now. I'm not fat but I'm trying to get back into at least early grad school shape where I was playing pickup basketball every other day, swimming 3 times a week, and had a flat stomach

Like any RPG, it's hard getting back into it when it hasn't been played for a while.

I know it took me a while to get back into it when I took a break due to moving. But now I've done it daily for two months.
