Kingdom Come Deliverance is out tomorrow. It looks like it will either be a epic experience or a incredibly dull time suck of a game that will take up all of your hard-drive space.
Do you need other people to play with to get the best gameplay experience?

Good question. I think monster hunter is more of a multiplayer game. Single player is a bit linear but multiplayer allows you to drop in on a bunch of different quest that other people are on to help them out and you can post quest that you need help on. The experience is more dynamic with more players as well.
Would you describe the community as friendly/cooperative?

I haven't experienced any bad apples yet. Everyone 'seems' friendly so far but assholes are everywhere online.

True. It probably helps players aren't competing against one another. I'm just not sure the style of game is for me, but the buzz has definitely piqued my curiosity.

The island isn't not a character, if that helps.

Mario Odyssey: Have one more Koopa race and the fucking hard bounding race in Snow Kingdom and then I have all of the moons and can do the alternate Bowser fight. These two races are pissing me off though. And the fucking 100 volley thing made me almost quit the game.

I decided against going after the jump roping and beach ball moons. I don't regret it.

Do the jump rope with the scooter, super easy. The volleyball go into two player mode, throw Cappy, move Mario out and use Cappy. He's easier to maneuver in the sand. I want the golden sail and final Bowser fight, so I need this.

Just stand in the center and throw Cappy. I think I got to almost 500.

I need to try both with an actual controller instead of in portable mode.

I thought tapping the button as gently as possible was the key to jump rope.

With the moped you hop consistently every time. Much easier than just using Mario

Overcooked is a ton of fun when playing co-op.

I’m waiting for them to challenge some local chefs or bartenders. Could be fun tv.
