Trump is hardly the first idiot to yell about how everyone is jealous. He’s just the biggest one in the spotlight today.

The problem is, many people really do hate other people’s success. That’s what envy is. Narcissists like Trump use envy as an excuse to dismiss all criticism, which is obviously wrong, but denying…

Are you under the impression that Donald Trump invented envy? I think you give him too much credit.

“Seem” is an important word there.

I could see arguing that there’s a reduction in quality if the development time was shrinking between games, or even staying constant. But each game since the first has had more development time than the one before it. Admittedly, it only goes up by about a month each time, but that’s significant when the starting…

You pick strange targets for your hate.

Makes sense. That was one of the pieces of concept art in the original campaign.

In the fight between the original Xbox and the PS2, anyone who wanted JRPGs had a clear choice with the PS2. My guess is that at the start of the new console generation, Microsoft wanted to steal some of that market, so they bought up some exclusives. But none of the 360-exclusive JRPGs were big sellers, the public…

At this point, I think that’s kind of like complaining about pixel art. It’s perfectly fair to say it’s overused and copied, but it’s still far from the most overused styles in the industry. Even though it’s (arguably) an outright copy, it can sometimes feel like a breath of fresh air, because it’s something different…

The beta does not support PS3 fightsticks. However, they’ve said that they’re talking to Lab Zero about using the Skullgirls driver, and hope that PS3 sticks will be usable on release day.

In this case, they haven’t put it out like this. Betas exist specifically to find and fix this sort of problem.

Sure, they’ll lose some business. They’ll also gain some. That’s just how it works when a game experiments with something new. I don’t find any entertainment in roleplaying myself, and Rust’s approach to character creation is the first thing I’ve seen out of it that really interests me.

To be fair, you didn’t miss out on anything worth playing with SFxT.

But, yeah, you have a very good point. Capcom has proven time and again that they should never get the benefit of the doubt.

I wholeheartedly agree. It’s been their look for a while now, and every decision they’ve made has worsened it. Originally, you seemed to be saying that it’s in their best interest to keep making the exact same horrible decisions.

I’m not sure what the point of your reply is.

SF4 was better on 360 than PS3, so the FGC had quite a few Xbox fans. PS4 exclusivity caused a hell of a fit. If you never saw it, you weren’t looking.

People believe it because Capcom and the creator of Street Fighter have both explicitly stated it. Capcom is in deep financial trouble. Obviously, they’d want a new entry in one of their biggest franchises.

But we’ve seen what happens when they don’t have the funding to do one of their big sellers justice. It was…

Hmm. Pretty good.

At least 3-4 more games. That’s the degree to which the Persona series beats the ever loving shit out of any other RPG on the market.

I really wish there was competition good enough to discourage this kind of milking, but fuck, there isn’t.

Agreed... if, and only if, Fallout 2 includes the Restoration Project mod. Without it, it’s still good, but it’s a far cry from BG2.

Did you play Nier? If not, the protagonist would probably be right up your alley.

To be fair, one of the biggest problems with Godus is that it’s mind-numbingly boring. Most games are more interesting by comparison.
