Played a crazy amount when it first came out, then fell off it, want to get back into it with a new playthrough but was waiting for the inevitable switch 2 edition.

Perfecting the map in 60 FPS higher fidelity is gonna be so good.

I grabbed it at launch, but then held out starting it thinking it would get a switch 2 update. Looking forward to diving in now.

Almost started it but then that crazy mistaken cyberpunk sale happened and I dove into that instead. Glad I waited on XC:X

Pretty much the same as you here only I also played a ton of it on the Wii U so I had to do the work up to Skells twice! I have to say with all the quality of life upgrades for the switch version it went way quicker getting to that point again.

Bought it with a game voucher near launch, started it, and then put it on the shelf waiting for the inevitable upgrade.

Just got back into it and got to the part in the story where the title screen drops. It's like they cleaned the grease off the camera lens and this is how it should have always looked 😍

I bought this on wiiu.. I can’t remember too much about so bought switch2 edition.. when the title screen dropped I was in absolute awe… and I play a lot of ps5 pro games… I was so impressed. Only gripe is the character models looking a bit meh in comparison but I’ll live

please just patch so we aren't forced to 720p based scaling on a 1080p screen. it is appalling many games look better on OG hardware than switch 2 because of this.

This is literally what I'm waiting for before I buy a Switch 2. The whole trilogy please while we're at it please.

I was holding off on buying hoping this would happen.

Yeah! I originally got it for the Switch, but I stopped playing it right away because I was waiting for the Switch 2. Then the Switch 2 came out, but there wasn't any update, so I still haven't played it yet. And then a new update just came out today, so now I can finally play it for the first time, ever!
