So hyped for this game!
@Zenarium I’m trying to figure out where I can buy it physically but I cannot find it anywhere yet though it’s about to release in just 6 days...
@mr12calvin Sadly there is no physical release.
I CANT PAUSE THE GAME. WHAT THE F-CK!!!!!!!!
@KingKRoolMain Yea, its a bummer. I got used to it though after a while, it made the dungeon a bit more immersive. Having to be quick and think on the fly since you could get attacked at a moments notice.
@Nin10doh It crashed if I put it in home menu for too long.
@KingKRoolMain Interesting, I haven't had that issue.
The NL review is becoming conspicuous by its absence.
@farmer_humpf such a strange game to not review, given its popularity/brand. I wonder why?
@Mdhoover Shh! I think someone is listening to our conversation: https://www.nintendolife.com/reviews/switch-eshop/minecraft_dungeons
Its a really funny deal. The game is very easy going and if you can play it with friends is a must have. Although it needs a patch for serious framerate problems.
@AymanDev true. It has a lot of performance issues. It needs a patch.
