It emphatically does not, unfortunately. It barely runs on the systems its on.

Just for the benefit of all the people responding to this who evidently lack a single iota of critical thinking skills, the ‘everyone’ in this context are people who would be on an article like this in the first place. People who would in any way want to know who is making the game. For the people who couldn’t give a

Nintendo doesn’t develop most of the games that use their characters. Everyone knows that by now, and it wasn’t some big secret until recently.

Respectfully, normies weren’t even playing Pokemon anymore by B/W. After the initial craze died it was mostly just diehards until the 3D era started. A little bit with X and Y, then massively when Pokemon GO took over the world. I think this is the first case of normie fatigue since the initial wave waaay back in the

Most of the backlash historically was diehards, the normies didn’t care. Scarlet/Violet is the first one I heard a bunch of normies disgruntled with the game. So I do think the next one is really a test of whether the brand is made of teflon or not, assuming they don’t in fact make an actually good game instead.

It’s not looking like it, but even if they did it still would’ve fit in here:

As proof of this thesis, nowhere in this article is the fact that Don’t Nod’s big RPG Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden came out literally hours ago even mentioned.

Relax.

Cool, so now I can say:

This game is very fun, and it is also probably still doomed in exactly the ways everyone expects.

The traversal is genuinely excellent. All 4 characters have really well considered gameplay loops built entirely around their distinct traversal methods, and they all feel really good to play. The

My problem is usually double-registers that gradually devolve into missing registers. They’re just... really bad switches.

It’s brilliant in theory. In practice, they use the cheapest switches available for the bumpers, and that combined with the awkward angle pressure gets applied if you actually use the controller this way makes the failure rate on the bumpers absurd. I’ve owned a dozen Xbox controllers over the years, and 85% of those

I’m the same way, and it’s mostly a non-issue, but there are some games that either want you to hit those buttons simultaneously or in close enough succession that it may as well be. Those are the exception, but they’re when I realize that using dedicated fingers for each of 4 rear grip buttons is still far from

Reminds me of the new CRKD Nitro Deck for Switch that I regrettably bought. On paper, incredible controller. In practice, the right thumbstick is completely unusable without making the ergonomics even worse than the stock Switch. Like, egregiously, negligently, there’s-no-way-they-didn’t-realize-this-is-intolerable bad

That is not what happened. He pulled over a window and people saw the tab for about 3 seconds, which was enough. It was open from the night prior. He provided literal receipts from the payment processor for the company that he had paid them one time, the night prior to that stream. If you want to invent that he had

Ewing is back to regularly posting and streaming because cancel culture is a myth and everything sucks.

...Does it? I love Nier Automata as much as the next guy, but you wonder how a game that was ugly by even its early PS4 standards “pulled it off” but shiny new games that target PS5 don’t? I mean, I guess it seems impressive because how horribly Nier performed on launch, but like... I wouldn’t say that reflects

Of topping S/V? No, I don’t. Not unless it is actually a much better game. If it’s on a similar quality level, I think S/V remains the high water mark for a long time.

...yes? Obviously, yes? Microsoft has no exclusives. Sony used to have exclusives, now they mostly don’t. Nintendo still has hella exclusives. If you release something on multiple platforms, platforms you don’t own or control, it’s not exclusive. You can say something is “console exclusive”, but thats a completely

Cool man! That was not the experience of anyone I know.

“If the owner wanted it to be available on the other platform it would be, therefore its not exclusive” Buddy. What the fuck are you on about lmao
