What? Dragon Quest 4 and 5 have both been remade twice each!

agreed! The first encounter with Laura in chapter 5 made me go 'wow!'

Exactly this.

The ingame notes don't really make things any clearer.

Don't get me wrong, I thought Evil Within had some interesting ideas, but I also felt that they were being held back by some very awkward design choices and a strange identity crisis. It was if the game couldn't decide whether it wanted to be a stealth-based horror affair or a gory all-guns-blazing action game. In the

I felt Evil Within suffered from Mikami trying to appease his longtime fans which resulted in a dearth of creativity. Yes, I understand that most franchises re-use elements of past instalments, but Evil Within copied settings and situations from Mikami's previous games verbatim, handwaving the inconsistency away with

That was my first death and an 'oh shit' moment that made me laugh out loud.

The game has such an identity crisis though—after that one 15 minute area with invisible enemies, they never show up again. I was thankful, but confused.

But 4 had some genuine creativity, and wasn't a sitcom clipshow of The Best Moments of Resident Evil.

Wishful thinking, but please make something new and unorthodox. Square was SO WEIRD AND SO COOL during the Playstation 1 era.

No kidding.

Whoa. This is what I was hoping Double Fine Adventure Game would've turned out to be.

Breathtaking. It's like the Mona Lisa made out of Duplo.

Their website FAQ makes a point that they don't take donations in any form. They seem to be doing 'right'; well, as right as a high-profile fan game of a Nintendo property can.

I'm usually vehemently against this kind of thing, my stance is 'leave other people's stories alone unless you've been explicitly asked to take

Well yeah, it stands to reason, you'd think! Tell that to the creators of several crowdfunding campaigns recently that got hit with cease-and-desists for messing around with IPs they didn't own...!

AFAIK they've never planned to charge for it.

I certainly didn't say anything about paedophilia. I read those characters as petit women standing behind their men, as opposed to children. Your reading also makes sense, but it does not make the strip any less classist and problematic.

The classism of Patriarchal Japan rears its ugly head. Bonus points for the submissive traditionally-dressed wife of the successful salaryman, compared to the bleach-dyed 'problem woman' girlfriend of the working class man.

I've just started a fresh playthrough of Persona 2 Eternal Punishment. It really resonated me back when it came out in 2000, and cumbersome interface aside, I just love everything about it.

Whoa, Parasyte is on Crunchyroll now? I loved that manga. Can't wait!
