[Thoughts] F-Zero 99


F- Zero finally gets a new game, but what do I think as someone who isn't much of a F-Zero fan?

When this game was announced during the direct I was interested in giving it a go for sure. My history with f zero essentially is a few games on F-Zero GX and the original F-Zero. I wasn't too interested in the game as I felt it lacked the chaos of games like Mario Kart. Upon having played this new game several times now, I have formed a solid opinion on it.

So I want to start of by saying this game is pretty cool. It is very fun and I feel like it has the element of chaos I thought the normal games lacked due to how many players are on the screen. The tracks are pretty cool too with some decent variance to them, Sand Ocean being my favourite. The customisation is a nice part of the game, though I do wish there were a few more default options available. The events are interesting, with my favourite being the team battles. These team battles are actually my favourite mode in the game. It's a bit sad that those aren't available to play all the time though, but they do show up a fair amount so it's nothing too annoying.

Tetris 99 I think still has this beat for my favourite free Nintendo online game, though it could change as time goes on. The main reason I liked Tetris 99 was because of the collabs it had with other games. I don't think we will see anything like that in F zero 99 sadly. However, I do like the gameplay of F zero 99 more than Tetris 99. Tetris 99 was supported for a very long time so we'll see if F-Zero 99 gets the same amount of support, I don't think it will but we'll see. 

Overall, I would definitely recommend F zero 99, even for non fans of the series, it's quite fun. With it being free as well you can't go wrong. It's not going to be a game I play often personally, but I will play whenever I feel like it or new content appears for sure.

That's it for this blog, stay connected!

[Thoughts] Will Tears of the Kingdom have DLC?

  DLC for Tears of the kingdom could happen but I don't think it's likely Source: Author's edit I want to start off by saying I do not think this game needs DLC at all, though it would be welcome. Breath of the Wild had an expansion pass with 3 waves of content. Looking at the contents of that could give us an idea about what a Tears of the Kingdom expansion pass could look like. The first wave (Expansion pass purchase bonus) was available at the games launch and included the following: - 3 new treasure chests This was a very small wave featuring 3 chests of goodies. The biggest thing from this was a Nintendo Switch shirt link could wear. It was a nice little extra to start the game off with but definitely not the defining content of the pass. Moving on, The second wave (DLC pack 1) offered a lot more in terms of content, with it offering these following things: - Trail of the Sword - Master mode - Heroes path mode.  This wave offered many things to test the players skill...

[Thoughts] Post Game Content Is Awesome!

Post game content is something I greatly  appreciate in games ~Intro ~ Many games over the years have included post game content, it's a way to give more content to players who really enjoyed their time with the main game and were left wanting a little more. Sometimes it is in the form of a few bonus missions, while other times epilogue stories can happen. I will now give some examples of good post game content and discuss what makes them good. ~Dark  Chronicle~ The post game for this game is quite big. After the main story you follow the main character on another small adventure to a place called the Zelmite Mine. This mysterious mine is huge, forming the biggest dungeon in the game by quite a bit. This Dungeon even has multiple mini bosses, one of which being fairly important to the narrative. While the dungeon does require a little bit of grinding to be able to get through it, it isn't too bad and I never found myself having...
