I still haven't picked up Warriors Orochi 3 on the Switch after all this time. I think it is only going for $20-$30.

I still haven't played the new Hyrule Warriors game yet even though I bought it at launch. I think this is different enough. the game looks even better in handheld than I thought. it really is a beautiful looking game. the motion is silky smooth too. I hope more moves open up as I go along. anyway, I'm happy with it. even though I hate paying $60 for any game.

You are doing one thing in one end of the map, and all of a sudden someone is in danger in the other end of the map, and then you have to abandon whatever you are doing, and run through the whole map, and if you are too late, the mission fail.. Idiotic and frustrating gameplay decision!
