My only concern for air riders is content, i really hope we get a good amount of stages and modes so that it doesnt feel repetitive. I really wanna sink all my time into this you dont understand

I GOTTA get my irls into this game when it releases… its so fun i NEED this to take off gfhdfffdfhfddj

City trial was also really fun, i could see myself getting very competitive over this :3

I think the assistants there could tell i was having the time of my life playing, their mutual love for the game made me feel very validated for audibly squealing when i saw galacta knight was playable bahaha

And that MUSIC!!! AAGAHAHAGAGAHAAAAAAAHA

Amberfalls might be my favourite nintendo song since the wii, everything is firing at all cylinders

The frenetic energy of the bass and piano, the cinematic tone of the strings brass and guitar, all held together by a consistent driving beat from the drums.

Waters was great, i loved how this and amberfalls put time aside for cinematics so the gameplay can maintain a primary focus

Best stage was definitely amberfalls, the visuals were absolutely incredible (imo as a result of level theming but the resolution and frame rate cant be denied as factors)

Got to play all three stages which was awesome, really wasnt any misses which was nice to learn

Floria was probably the worst of the three, wide open turns make it a bit basic though cutting those turns super close to the edge was exhilarating. Definitely still good though!!

Im stunned at just how well the game plays, everything feels pretty much exactly how Sakurai described it in the direct

If anything its just little ui/ux stuff i have gripes with for gameplay like how theres no hud element for copy ability duration (though you do flash when its running out)

Nintendo actually planned for Spl 4 / Raiders stuff but heard us chant "fuck this gamemode" at riptide and cut all the splatoon stuff

Still feeling the effects making the grassroots news arg

Having made everything the night before was good for knowing where people were at and how to balance puzzles and whatnot, but no chance I’m staying up that late consecutively again…

Now I’m more prepared for next time :3

I know it was a sword/bell character tho, I couldnt stand using only the weapons intended for mages, its all slow moving projectiles and i needed SOMETHING more just to keep going with it. Battle mage!

I forget how my mystic build works, i think i made that one a no health upgrades character and just cycled mage shield and the autoparry
