While I tend to disagree with the bad reviews in a lot of ways based on only what I've seen (haven't gotten it yet), they seem to be generally legit reviews. Albeit a lot of what is in that screenshotted review linked is just personal stupidity, if you paid $70 for a Switch game expecting "next-gen" graphics and a performance and fidelity mode, sorry, you suffer from being an idiot.
My main disagreement in general is I reject the notion that every full game release must push the envelope in every single facet from the previous one or be "just a DLC." If the first game was fun and the new one is more of the same of equal or better length, then it's fine with me. I don't remember much bitching that Doom 2 was just more Doom, but more of "wow, we get more Doom!"
I'll be interested to see whenever I do play this, which probably won't be soon honestly. Will at least wait until I can pick it up for $40-50.
It may never drop to $40. Nintendo games hold value so hard.
I wouldn't be shocked if it didn't. I don't really mind the higher prices of their games for that reason though. I can buy a physical copy and sell it if I really want to. I got BotW bundled with my Switch used, so I can't really compare it....but if I were to look at my copy of Astral Chain or Xenoblade 2, I paid $50 each for those and I could drop them on eBay three years later and net at least $40 for them. It's way better than any other physical games that I don't even bother with anymore because the residual value is so bad.
