It’s funny how the smallest things can have the biggest impact.

Really need a version with the cat replaced by something Zelda-appropriate, and then it’ll be perfect.

I was willing the forgive WoD after the reports of crunch and budget cutbacks and development issues  and when Legion ended up being so fantastic. I was certainly hoping that after Legion did a lot to reinforce character and class identity and more enjoyable gameplay with the artifact weapons and class halls that the…

Speaking as a long-time WoW and Blizzard fan who has never played FF14 and probably never will, I have only one thing to say: Good.

I think for the same reason a lot of service workers are forced to put on a smile and a friendly attitude happy to answer a dozen inane questions even if they’re at the end of an exhaustive 12-hour shift: many people only care about the experience they are given and not the living human beings who are giving it to…

I love how he sits on the ground like it’s no big deal and then the camera cuts to the pitcher with the more appropriate reaction.

Yes, they do have a responsibility, but as I’ve been saying, their motivations to act on that responsibility are pretty slim right now. The lemon analogy is appropriate, because while there are laws against such customer exploitation, there also has to be the will to enforce those laws. You can try to guilt the…

Highly doubtful. Such a lawsuit would have a tough time getting a lawyer to represent them, much less keep it from being seen as frivolous by a judge and thrown out. The problem is that such a suit would need to argue that A) the responsible party is Respawn, not the hackers currently causing the problem and B) the…

Because it costs significantly more to support a game than it does to “print” new copies, especially in the digital age. They’re not going to commit staff to implementing fixes for an old game that sells for $5 at best. I wish it were otherwise, but that’s just how big business work.

This is honestly just sad. Titanfall 2 gets little to no support, the expectation that Titanfall 1 would even be given the time of day is...impressive in its lack of perspective.

It’s because there are two levels of criticism of China:

What on Earth is this nonsense? Charging $20 individually for thirty year-old games?? A complete package that costs close to 100?? Who the hell thought this was gonna fly? We’ve had remaster collections that cost less than one of these by themselves!

I’ll just leave this here.

A more robust single-player and more emphasis on competitive online would be good, but dialing back the roster most definitely would not: a big, big, big part of Smash’s appeal is how many playable characters there are so that everyone finds something that appeals to them. That’s what draws the majority of players in,…

I sincerely, sincerely hope that if they are considering making another Smash, that they are also considering working out deals to retain all existing crossover content; it isn’t just the best selling Smash title they’ve ever made, it’s the best selling fighting game of all time by a landslide, and a big component of…

Yup, literally only one.

It’s honestly kind of hilarious how uniquely terrible our healthcare system is. There’s literally no argument in favor of it; we pay loads more for worse care, have to navigate a labyrinth of insurance coverages that half the time find some way to weasel out of helping us, and any emergency has the potential to…

Given that Capcom’s iteration was a tag team game, I could definitely see Harada holding onto the TxSF material and working on that instead of a Tekken Tag 3 the next time their development schedule reaches that point. Given how well Akuma translated to Tekken gameplay, I’d love to see their takes on the rest of the…

Kazuya had a son named Jin who was nice but also devil-possessed who beat up his grandpa (Tekken 3) and dad (Tekken 4)

Basically just a bunch of dudes from the Mishima family perpetually trying to kill each other out of vengeance/spite. Heihachi started it off, a super manly man who threw his son Kazuya off a cliff to toughen him up because Kazuya was not super manly...at, like 8 years old. Kazuya grew up to be a super manly man but…
