It always irritated me that it basically forced worse positioning. would be way too difficult to defend if forwards could just stand wherever they wanted and wait for the ball when people can kick it the whole field. Similar to the blue line in hockey. | ||

It's mostly thought of as a kids game, as no one really pays attention to it after High School. I played it until 12, and hated every second of it. Too much pointless running. The corporations here don't push it as hard because it's harder to wring it out for ad money than American handegg (which is best described as a series of commercials interspersed with people literally beating the brains out of each other). If the viewership keeps falling for the NFL due to all the concussion shit (really, no one should play that) then I can see us moving towards rugby or real football instead. White people don't really watch basketball after the college level. i kinda meant teddy but your post was literally 5 secs before mine, gotta throw that shade at the germans yknow | ||

You won't have 10 players attacking against 11 players defending. There is just no room for them and it's would be a terrible strategy. I was confident Germany would win as soon as one of their players had to leave the court.. On June 29 2018 08:14 Nevuk wrote: lol, I don't think it's dying. I just think it's boring. Especially at very high levels of play. Amateur games are a lot more entertaining Can't agree. High level play is a joy to watch. The top teams are just so far out of reach of the other professionals that they look so bad in comparison. Imo | ||

There's one mindblowing game and one very good game that are exclusives. The others are too expensive for ports in my opinion. Though they're really good games at times, I'm hesitant to pay 40 euros for a game that's 15 on steam (non cartridge). Mario rabbits or tennis or smash is nothing to me unfortunately. | ||

Shovel Knight and Enter the Gungeon should last me a while for that purpose Games i can recommend unless you already played some of them on PC: Breath of the wild, Super mario odyssey, Splatoon 2, Mario kart 8, Donkey kong, Hollow Knight, Celeste, Darkest dungeon, Mario+Rabbids, Golf Story and probably something i'm forgetting | ||

You can easily play odyssey handheld exclusively. I played the game from start to finish 80% handheld and 20% pro controller, no joy cons needed. | ||

which is a reason why i played odyssey just until the + Show Spoiler + frozen desert boss I should've been clearer in me statement. Also senpai6 surely has some games to add to the list. I would've gone for mariokart as well if I didn't have to buy another pair of joycons for 4 person lan play. | ||
