Anyone been playing this? I'm only about 60 missions in and somehow still don't have a strong opinion either way. It feels weaker than the previous titles, and it's weird how you have to repeat the same missions over and over again basically (deliver object x to person y). I do enjoy the longer ones that can be pretty challenging if you follow the fastest route and not just go around obstacles. The crafting/hunger system is retarded and adds nothing to the experience, and it's stupid that the dialogue pops up every time you eat food. The music is good but so far there has only been like 2-3 songs and it gets annoying. It feels like a budget title, but there was love put into it

I feel bad for them. They basically hit the formula perfectly with sayonara so there really wasn’t much else for them to do with a new game. Metroidvania sometimes works, but Umihara really didn’t need to go that direction. I feel like their best bet would have been to just release a new game with nicer graphics and a level editor.

I was cautiously optimistic upon hearing it would be sort of a metroidvania, but I was thinking it would be a huge open world and you would have quests that you could take multiple routes for. Instead, it's a fairly small world with a TON of small quests that seem identical

I loved the demo and the art stile. I'm defiantly going to buy* it in July.

I don't know the full story but a lot of people are saying don't support Nicalis with the localized release. You can get it through amazon jp for like $50 shipped and it has english

>>16437711

I know but it's only going to be like $30 I don't want to spend the extra $20. Also what do you mean about "localized"? Considering the original game already has an option for English.

They're releasing a north american physical version in July is what I meant, I don't know if they'll change the translation or what not because it seems a little stiff

Hopefully Play-Asia hasn't lost my package like last time. The exploration structure fits well for the mechanics and a lot is gained for it. Routing given new context is really refreshing.

Fresh delivery of dolphin porn, uguu!

I can't think of a good reason why this is anywhere near 4GB.

Pleb's impressions after around 2 hours:

The repetition of music and levels is disgusting. You're delivering pizzas to and from the same spots or butchering ten pigs/fish/etc. for five missions in a row with the only difference being enemy placement. I'm pretty sure the guy did this to justify charging $40 instead of $20 while making less levels (plus not wanting to make the same game for the fourth time in a row). Overall, the quest structure feels like the downtime filler parts of a more interesting game.

The hunger bar is a stupid gimmick that just makes you pause every couple minutes to scarf down five fish/loaves of breadfruit while soaring through the air. On the other hand, you no longer die in one hit.

You can skip the eating animation but it shouldn't be there in the first place. Holy shit making the entire game fetchquests and putting a hunger/crafting system in it was a bad idea.

There's dialogue before and after every quest and it's all inane bullshit. Thankfully, you can skip it.

The challenge stages are obnoxious but that probably just makes them regular Umihara Kawase levels. Your health also completely drains in about a minute because Umihara didn't think to pack a sandwich in her backpack.

Umihara gets her gigantic fucking head stuck on every goddamn corner and spazzes out when she bounces around the top of one.

The intro music and the title music are the exact same and I hate that. There are also two spaces between "Kawase" and "Fresh!" on the Switch menu for some reason. The loading screens noticeably stutter too.

TL;DR: eh, I liked the 3DS one better

Nicalis has fucked over lots of developers and games before. I wouldn't recommend supporting their shitty practices.

Kawase's got some nice jugs, 'tis a shame the developers aren't exploiting that.

Wait, this isn't on PC?

How likely is this to end up on PC? I don't want a Switch.

Marking all the games I see on the wiki list as Do Not Fucking Touch. Thanks for the heads up.

I agree with all of your points. I enjoy the overall gameplay as a fan of the previous ones, but everything else suffers. Should've been a $15 download only game

>How likely

Pretty much confirmed considering Nicalis and the fact that the other games are already avaiable there.

It just fits with the Switch due to being a small budget game, plus it continues it's Nintendo legacy with the original being released on the SNES and the latest releases being released first on the 3DS.

TL;DR: Their main fanbase is on the Switch but ports to other platforms wil undoubtly happen, PC included.

This is the third challenge stage and I want to die alongside the fucking gunfish.
