If a modder wants to upload their work somewhere else and off a donate button then that’s their choice. People react to this like suddenly every modder is obligated to only use this system. If a modder is one of the supposed bastions of free media that so many people complaining about this new system seem to assume…

This. Definitely. Anyone who thinks hard working modders haven’t wanted to monetize their work but simply didn’t because of legal issues is painfully naive. I’ve noticed a lot of consumers, used to getting whatever they wanted for free for years, come out and complain that they might actually be forced to pay someone…

I feel that if it’s important to an individual modder to uphold that mindset and release their mods for free then they’re still able to. But if the only reason they weren’t charging money for their mods is simply because there wasn’t an organized, legal way to pull it off, then at least now they have the option. I…

What is generally considered an “oil free cake”, if you ever look up recipes, also means that it does not include butter.

“Wait, you want to get paid? Then why are you called a “Free”lance artist?”

As a commercial artist who regularly sees entitled people demand free art from me or my contemporaries as though we’re somehow obligated to do so I am wholly in support of this mindset. If you want to create art and distribute it for free across the internet there’s nothing stopping you, but that doesn’t make it an…

Just wait a week and half for him to somehow program another entire game by himself.

For me the only game I used exploits on extensively was my trusty old copy of Pokemon Blue. The most popular trick in the game was the Missingno. glitch, which most people used to either catch Missingno., since it’s a rare, technically non-existent pokemon... or to replicate a ton of items... I won’t say that I didn’t…

I like how your Occam’s Razor-style assumption on this is that this famed doctor must somehow be deeply involved with this and is simply deliberately obfuscating ignorance about the whole process because somehow admitting his involvement would be some kind of spoiler for events within the game. That is not at all the…

So is this like... a whiny health-nut thing or a whiny hipster thing?

You’re not familiar with the story mode in the last two games, are you? Many of the characters get plenty of depth and characterization.

I got really into Galaxies for a while because the way the game was set up allowed you to completely break the game. Like the ability to pick and choose skills from a variety of jobs opened up a lot of min-maxing opportunities. I was always impressed when someone used up all their skill points just to master three…

Yeah, I just came down to the comments to talk about how this guy’s a total shitbird who is not going to improve anything with that attitude.

Maybe it’s because I don’t play online very often but I’ve rarely encountered any kind of serious trolling. The worst I see are people deliberately going out of their way to waste my time... like I was playing Tekken online against someone, and to start they didn’t select a character... they just hovered over their…

I actually stopped playing that game after a few hours just because I couldn’t stand looking at Vaan for another minute. And although he’s also got a dumb looking outfit at least it makes sense... it’s just really skimpy fantasy armor.

I think I’ve talked about this with Nomura’s design before, but I think what made the FFVII designs so much better than his later work was that they seemed to be drawn with a mind toward the limitations of the hardware. Since they weren’t aware of how much detail they could give a character and still have it appear…

Well that sucks... that was the only real benefit for hitting your opponent with such a short range attack. I mean sure... stunning them would otherwise be quite useful, but with the moves range and restriction of only being able to hit an opponent facing you it doesn’t really have any advantages over just hitting…

The video didn’t show, but in Melee his down-B hit like a truck if you hit someone with it after already stunning them. I wonder if that’s still in the game...

Ugh I was worried about that... Mewtwo didn’t have amazing moves or anything, but he was a pretty balanced character except for the fact that his moveset and speed was scaled as though he was a heavy character, but he classed as a light character. They need to either up his weight to keep him from being knocked around…
