Doesn't look that good aesthetically
Does DSLL even work with out a VVR display? cause it looks like it doesn't have a locked option from the videos i'm watching.
Basically from what i understand.
Digital foundry said it won't work for consoles because a VVR screen is mandatory. I was excited for FS3 on ps5 but basically its useless on consoles as well..
A Nintendo console with actual horsepower compared to a PlayStation would make me seriously consider switching my main console. Though trophies are a real reason to keep staying on PlayStation. I feel like Nintendo needs to really up their online and profile system to compete even if they have comparable power.
Not at all. If they removed them on Playstation or Xbox I wouldn’t even notice.
I absolutely agree with you.
In terms of artwork maybe, but everything else sounded pretty terrible..
Are you guys really complaining about not having a pop up congratulating you when you bonked 10 times against a random wall? I can understand the "proper account" part but are achievement really adding any value to a game?
I am still trying to get my head around that this seems to be essential to some players. Even back when achievements were a new thing in the Xbox 360 era, I couldn't figure out why people like them. I remember reading developer interviews where they said that having trophies or achievements was actually a requirement to get on the platform(s). Like what the fuck? Is it still that way? Why?
Yeah. There is literally nothing to be gained from system-level achievements and trophies unless one is really, really insecure about other people believing they really did do something in some game. I blame schoolgrounds in the 80s and 90s. Nothing worse than telling your friends you beat a game, then they don't believe you because kids, and when you want to show them you go into performance anxiety mode and get a game over on the second level. I understand. But it's time to let it go. If someone makes fun of you because you can't prove you beat Sword Saint Isshin, that person should get a life.
I used to care about them, but I couldn't give less of a shit now. However, I do have a couple of friends who are all about getting those platinum trophies and 100%-ing them video games. I guess it would be nice if Nintendo would add an achievement system (one that's made in their own unique style) for those who enjoy them, but for me it's whatever.
There would be no point in them demoing technology that they wouldn't offer to developers.
Yeah, on paper it seems like low-hanging fruit but I’m almost certain they’d make something that’s very different/unlike Sony/MS, to the point that, for those that actually care about achievements on those platforms, Nintendo might as well just have skipped implementing them altogether.
Slim to none this year imo. They’re going to want to push Switch hard again this holiday with Mario etc.
There is a point for them to demo this tech in case they are collecting feedback. In no case for releasing the product.
If they want feedback on target specs, it's because those are the specs they are targeting for Switch 2.
Business idea: Just sell achievements/trophies.
They just provide a “demo console” and discuss various things with devs. After back and forth discussions they decide on the final specs.
It is because you are used to it. Nintendo has never had them so it’s a new gimmic they can claim for the next switch. It will also allow them a HUGE opportunity for remasters sales from previous titles.
Really? Steam does have achievements and I never gave a fuck, tbh.
Right, a demo console with the specs they plan on using for Switch 2.
This is kinda getting offtopic, but they already do... there's some dev pumping very low effort asset flips on PSN and Xbox for $0.99 - $4.99 for trophy/achievement hunters where you get the 100% in 10 - 20 min tops. Some of them are even making fun of this whole trend and how ridiculous the whole thing has become.
