Put a bit of time into this yesterday. It seems nice and fun. I'm still addicted to Monster Hunter so the amount of time I can put into this is limited ATM but this seems like a nice side game to have in rotation.

I don't know if I can justify the price to myself with my current budget.

I just paid 5 actual human dollars for an imaginary digital spaceship part. I am everything that's wrong with the gaming industry.

I'm liking this game quite a bit. I'd been getting the urge to go back and play more of No Man's Sky recently, but this is really scratching that itch with the big open star system and open-endedness. My only real complaint is I wish there were more control options, which feel fairly intuitive on a planet's surface, but I still find myself adjusting my ship's speed by accident when I push up or down on the left stick expecting that to control pitch.

So the new DLC dropped. Has anyone tried it? I fell out of the game when other things came up and I'm keen to get back into it. Figure I'll pick up the StarFox DLC pack, but I'm not sure what it fully entails. I know it adds them as playable characters and also special mission for them, but do they have unique ships? I know that the extra DLC ships acted as "extra lives" of sorts, so will these three act as extra lives? I'm thinking of starting the game over and would be nice to play exclusively as the StarFox team.

I bought the physical starter because I wanted the Arwing, but I am also tempted to sell the physical game off and just buy the digital deluxe edition when it is on sale for like $20-$30.

Any future games in this franchise will probably be exclusive to the Switch since it sold better on that console.

Exclusivity would probably reduce development costs as well as boost sales some since that whole "exclusive" moniker certainly seems to help with visibility and interest for games.

Eighty percent of sales were on Switch.

With how badly it did I just don't see a sequel happening. However it's very possible that Ubisoft Toronto will end up making a Star Fox game in the Star Link engine.
