To each their own, but that’s never how I felt. I played that game for hundreds of hours across multiple playthroughs and I don’t remember ever feeling like I was “farming” or “grinding” for weapons. I was just fighting the guys the game put in front of me and taking the spoils and I almost always had enough. I didn’t…

I feel like the correct response to that situation is to leave the shrine and come back when you’re more prepared, which was at least a central idea to Breath of the Wild. The game wanted to put you in impossible situations to force you to recognize that you can’t do everything immediately.

This article is bizarre.

Why do we WANT a drip-feed of advertising that reveals half the game before it’s even out, exactly? That seems pointless. If we know we want the game, then we don’t need it and it’ll just hurt the experience. If we don’t know, then we shouldn’t be looking to advertising for that decision, we…

Given it’ll mainly have BOTW’s gameplay, I’m assuming it’ll just be looking at one or two systems, probably those custom vehicles. “Deep dive” seems apt enough for that.

Go on... Take it further. Scale this up to, ALL industry.

you buy it from SE at $50 and then sell it to someone at else at $0.05. That is how the economy is suppose to work.

I not only am not interested, I am actively and joyously cheering for it to explode in their faces so hard that it should be a cautionary tale for anyone else wishing to replicate it.

I wonder if this will be an instance of a bug that only affects hackers or the like, or whether it’s just a case of GameFreak dropping the ball hard. Neither would surprise me at this point.

I’m OCD as hell and all about accuracy, I’m on forums for Transformers and Macross, it’s a mad house, we nitpick every little tampo and decal print on every section of every figure. Nendoroids are a neat balance, a little style with some accessories and articulation, they’ve definitely got some neat figures.

I definitely think the style works for some characters, here and there, a very selective few work as POPS.

Most plastic isn’t recyclable anyway. Even the stuff you dutifully clean and put in the proper bin just gets dumped in a landfill, or shipped off to some other country that will just dump it a landfill over there. At least fabric and paper will degrade. I mean, unless it’s a synthetic fabric that is made out some sort…

do you really think that the company selling cringe PVC garbage cares an ounce for the environment? Like, for real?

Funko building a whole-ass IPO on what was clearly a fad is just fucking astounding to me.

Pretty crazy that people would pay $100 when you could just buy it for $40 digitally and eventually $40 physically when it restocks. FOMO is wild.

Like in a vacuum it’s a good thing if a computer takes your job, provided that we have figured out a way as a society to provide for people’s food, housing, medical care, and “things that make them happy” without requiring people to have jobs.

This is a paradigm you’ve constructed though. The way I think of it is that the true price of Breath of the Wild is $80, but you can get the vast majority of it for $60. And I mean, what a deal! You saved 25%. Even without the DLC, Breath of the Wild is easily worth $80 to me.

Inflation is a natural thing. Games are going to get more expensive. To act like they could never get to be over $60 doesn’t make sense; the question is always “when”, not “if”. Almost everything is more expensive than it was 10/20/50 years ago.

Yikes
