The Last Poster Wins! [v22]

[Chakramaster]

Well, it seems alright in all the parts I've played, but I can only get to a point with 5 objects at once (3 axe things & an enemy,) but it seems fine with that. I guess I'll just need to keep going and see, and if worst comes to worse, it runs pretty much perfectly as 600x400, so I can always shrike it for the parts that lag too much.

Yeah, FFXIV's a game that I really want to play, but my PC just won't have it. I get like 18FPS max with everything at it's lowest, so sadly I'll have to wait and hope for a Switch port...

But yeah, Carbuncle's been a summon almost every FF game from V onwards, but wasn't in VII or X, so isn't as famous as some of the others like Shiva & Ifrit. It's also gradually looked more and more like an Espeon as time's gone on :P But in IX it looked like this

Does the FFXIV carbuncle have multiple gems/spells like in IX, or is it just the Reflect spell like in the others?

Sadly FFXIV won't ever come to the Switch. I'm pretty confident in that. I used to have bad fps too. My old laptop used to be 34 fps in very unpopulated areas. Then when in dungeons or especially raids oh man. It used to be around 7-18. Make my laptop super hot as well since it only had to AC power from the cord. It wasn't like my current on with an extra fan designed to help gaming computers stay cool.

FFXIV's is a summon you can control. There's two really where one is more offensive and the other more defensive. So it's spells differ. I think they made it now so you can make them another color if you'd like.

Yeah though, hopefully your computer can hold out for Ori. If not, like I said I could always livestream it. I think that'd be pretty fun.

I'd heard of Ori before, but I didn't know anything about it until just now. It looks like Nihilumbra, another platformer I enjoyed, but most importantly, the player character looks like FFIX's carbuncle. Definitely intrigued now. I wonder if my laptop can handle running it...

EDIT: Well, I've bought it. It lags slightly when I jump, but only very slightly. It runs pretty much like this Would that be enough to make it work, or are there parts that would be unplayable? Cause I don't want to play it for too long only to find out that the last parts are impossible due to the lag...

Hey, that's not too bad! I think you'll be fine. My computer is pretty old too, but it seems to handle it.

Well, I know they were in talks about getting FFXIV on the Switch & Xbox One last year, so it's not 100% ruled out. Unlikely, yes, since Sony won't let them have cross platform multiplayer, but if that changes, then it could happen.
And different coloured Carbuncles you say? Is purple an option?

Mine's about 5 years old now, and it wasn't particularly new when I got it... It can just about run small or old games like FFVIII & Armello. If only all new games were optimized like Overwatch, then I'd have no problem :P

And for Ori, I had to lower the resolution to around 600x400 for the Black Root Burroughs, but it's still playable, and actually runs really smoothly at that resolution. Now I just need to stop falling off everything :P

Mine's even older. Got it back in 2011.

The only part where Armello lags for me is during the winner finale. Not a big deal, but yeah, I like how Overwatch does things so even people with shabby computers can still enjoy it. Because there's a lot of new games I can only dream about playing right now.

@Shruikan I haven't delved into coloring one yet myself, but once I know I will let you know :D. I'm pretty sure most colors are an option. Yeah they already struggle enough with the PC and PS4 cross platform. So I personally don't see it happening. Maaaaaaaybe with XBL, but even they are strict on cross platform.

I just got Don't Starve Together thanks to a friend of mine. It's fun but I'm bad at it. XD

I tried it, but yeah, it's brutal. My favorite character is the lumberjack dude that transforms into a beaver if he doesn't eat enough wood. XD

[Chakramaster]

It takes some getting used to, but yes it can be fun! It gets tough to manage everything, but it's all in good fun.

[Noblejanobii]

Yeah it's a ton of fun or sure!

[Bulbasaur]

You're probably not bad at it. It's a hard game.
