    Smite is so guilty of this, 100$ for a skin when I can get two whole 50+ hour games that’ll have me balling at the end….I’m looking at you xenoblade3, even better I can spend 100$ getting quite a few awesome indie titles.

    I've been digging through the eShop for something to buy with my leftover eShop funds and this game looks to be the exact thing I've been looking for. If it weren't for this review, this game might've flown under my radar. Didn't bother with the demo, just bought it straight away. The review told me all I needed to know.

    I don't understand why there are so many "cute" games these days. As an adult man with three kids, it's kinda off-putting. My wife came across me playing a cute game the other day and she whispered in my ear "You're making my d*ck soft." (FYI... she's quoting a Dave Chappelle skit). To be frank, I get it. They are d*ck softening.

It’s got a speedy, arcade feel with enough speed spectacle stuff with added exploration. Reskin the main character as Sonic and you’re pretty much there. Considering I spend $12 on a lunch out without batting an eye, I’ll be happy to pay $5 for the whole thing.
