I just picked up Mario + Rabbids. Just got to world 2 after beating Rabbid Donkey Kong and boy was that a difficulty spike. I’ve always been a big fan of Fire Emblem, and this is very fun with all the movement options and such.
Does anyone know how the sequel holds up? Obviously not a masterclass in terms of story, but very very fun gameplay.
I would compare it more with X-Com than Fire Emblem. Technically, they are very similar, but in my mind, they are very different games.
As for the sequel, I haven't played it myself yet, but have heard great things about it. I loved the first one, and from what I have seen second one improves on it a lot.
Ah I never played XCOM. But from what I’ve seen they do look really similar.
If you like Mario+Rabbids, and don't mind playing umm... a "rugged" version of it, without Mario characters, and some base-building mechanics included, check out XCom 2. They also a released a Marvel: Midnight Suns, which I think is more approachable than XCom 2, though I haven't played that yet.
That game was so much fun. Haven't played the sequel yet.
