I’ve never understood the need for nonessential shops like Gamestop and other similar retailers to be open on holidays.

When who calls? My current employer? The ones who happily schedule me 40 hours every week and have always given me the maximum raise at every evaluation? Is that who you are talking about?

Oh hey look, GameStop still doesn’t give a fuck about their employees, never change.

He was window shopping and didn’t ask to drive the car. The asshole dealership employees would have spent far less time answering a few dumb questions than jerking the kid around.

But thats the thing isn’t it?

Even if pixel art platformers go out of style (again), Kyle may not abandon the retro world entirely. He has considered working on a project with deliberately PSone-style 3D visuals, right down to texture warping and other common quirks from Sony’s first foray into consoles.

My opinion: I think that Shovel Knight came out when the market for retro and pixel art games was already saturated, but the game was good so it found an audience anyway.

Well said. The problem isn’t so much that retro-inspired games exist, it’s that EVERY OTHER GAME THAT COMES OUT involves pixel art in some way, and the market is starting to get oversaturated.

Bullshit. Tell that to Yacht Ub Games. Or the team who did Axiom Verge. There is money in retro it’s just that most devs think they can slap together some garbage game with lazy pixel art graphics and make money. You actually have to put effort into it. Retro has become the new zombies a trope used by lazy devs who…

“This is a bit of history rewriting, I know”

People would read these if they could understand what they meant. These agreements are purposely steeped in legal jargon that makes most rights sound like you may or may not be agreeing to something? Wouldn’t it make more sense to provide a clear succinct non legal explanation of your rights as well as a legal version…

It’s a start. In my experience, the only thing that keeps cheaters in check on multiplayer servers (at least for building/survival games) is a staff of dedicated moderators. If there aren’t mods on almost 24/7, script kiddies can do a lot of damage in a short amount of time. The automated tools are important, too, but…

Well I adored the show..the dialogue is hit or miss but I’ve been watching anime for the better part of 25 years. Clunky dialogue doesn’t shake me much. It did feel very...Whedon-like. Depending on how you like Whedon that could be make or break. Castlevania very much reminded me why I hated the 2016-17 Berserk…

Counter-point: a dude literally wandering from town to town in search of his son, fighting to stay alive in a shitty world not of his making, is actually not a bad use of the song at all.

I used to think “opportunism”.

Yes! but it is too short! Thank God, season 2 will have 8 episodes.

Eh I can totally understand being a sellout for a few years if it means I can earn money to make the art I want after.

....You realize you posted this comment on a website dedicated to reporting the news to the exact type of people who would open such a garage, right?
