![]() Just be sure to watch the cards and choose your battles wisely, and you’ll have a tale that will live on through the ages. The Switch is encouraging me to go back and pick up a lot of these titles, and this is one worth grabbing a hold of. In this post, you will find all there is to know about the Software updates for Hand of Fate 2 on Nintendo Switch (originally released on July 27th 2018 in Europe and North America). The original Hand of Fate was a game I had heard a lot about, but never got around to. It’s a good game to have background music or a podcast for. Hand of Fate 2 is out on the Nintendo Switch tomorrow the 17th and today Evan is going through his thoughts on the game. Most of the sound is banter from the Dealer, but the music is not really noticeable and the sound effects are standard grunts and shouts. I had some difficulty differentiating my character from certain enemies early on, but it’s easy to switch that around. Hand of Fate looks strong, even if most of the graphics are static images with the odd card flip. In further research, this is an issue endemic to the game as it also happens on other console versions. ![]() I found myself actively avoiding battle sequences when I was picking my own cards, but the story always ends on a battle so you will have to deal with it. Because of these freezes, it can take 20 - 30 seconds to move in and out from a combat sequence. The battles run at a consistent frame rate in docked mode, but the transitions to and from the battles came to a complete stop every single time. The battles use the weapon cards, and the controls are simple to learn with most beyond attacking or evading set up by button prompts on the enemies. ![]() The card draws are one of three or four, while the die are usually designed to hit a specific roll on three six-sided die. One of three chance-relevant things can happen when a card is flipped: A dice roll, a card draw, or a battle. The cards are face down until you choose them to flip, and there are forks in the layout that can take a while to navigate. As the stories play out, you earn cards for weapons and story elements, which get added to a loadout and shuffled into the cards The Dealer includes. Most of the game is spent with The Dealer, who weaves stories based on the traditional tarot arcana (The Fool, The Magician, Death), while doing a fine impression of British comedian Stephen Fry. Hand of Fate 2 picks up immediately following the events of the 2015 original, which released on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
