In today's Daily Fix:Developer AdHoc Studio has released a statement addressing the censorship controversy surrounding the Switch 2 port of Dispatch. AdHoc is taking responsibility for the uproar, saying that their game failed to meet certain Nintendo guidelines, and that it was their responsibility to better convey the message that the Switch 2 port was altered from the PS5 and Steam versions. AdHoc are working with Nintendo to address the issue, but that it could take weeks before changes are made to the game, if any. In other news, Nioh 3 might be making its way to the Switch 2 and Xbox Series consoles, marking the first time the franchise ended up on a non-Sony console. A new trailer for the game specifies that it's a PS5 console exclusive for six months, however no official word on if other ports are coming. And finally, a video game music remix won a Grammy last night over EGOT-holder Cynthia Erivo. Super Mario Praise Break from The 8-Bit Big Band took home the award for Bestr Arrangement, Instrumental and Vocals. Another gaming win came from composer Austin Wintory, who won for the soundtrack to Sword of the Sea.

Support my work on Patreon- https://patreon.com/realdavejackson Join the Tales from the Backlog Discord server- https://discord.gg/kAqSBb6jH2 Buy me a coffee on Ko-fi- https://ko-fi.com/realdavejackson There is a certain type of atmospheric (usually) indie game that gets praised for its tone, vibes and emotional impact, but sometimes criticized for underbaked or limited gameplay mechanics. Walking sims used to get the brunt of this, but the same could also be said for games like Sword of the Sea director Matt Nava's most famous works, Journey and Abzu. Sword of the Sea may not be an intentional response to those criticisms, but it does add more "involved" gameplay into the fold, incorporating sand surfing and tricks into your verb set. It then begs the discussion- on paper, adding more involved gameplay is good, right? But is that always the case?
