I'm gonna agree. Returns can be sorta stylized because it went for a sort of hand-drawn-ish looking batch of tile-sets, whilst eternity has a much bigger art team and can do proper pre-rendered backgrounds and stuff.

Am I the only one who finds it serviceable at best? Mostly it's to do with the combat sprites and how they look like the art from a f2p facebook game, but the characters look really flat in an unappealing way in dialogue too. Look at the sword, shield, horns etc in the dialogue scene with the blonde guy. There's not…

Wasn't there a study a while back that demonstrated that being "spoiled" actually increased enjoyment?

Supposedly the next game's likely to be a reboot. They said in streams that this story, the story of the Boss and Gat and Pierce and all is over when the DLC wraps.

I haven't had a ton of glitches but apparently the intentional graphics glitches triggered around rift and injection activities can cause actual bugs like this D:

The "last few years" thing is definitely bullshit. Earthbound's always had a cult audience, hence the ferocity with which people jumped on the Earthbound Zero ROM.

No, I don't think so. I think there is plenty of positivity already. We live in a time where Kickstarters make specific, fan-favourite devs into stretch goals, when even someone as deliberately abrasive as Phil Fish has a significant fandom of apologists, and where many developers are comfortable enough with their…

Like in Saints Row 3, all of the characters are pretty much action figures or cartoons, and this extends to the aesthetic of the costumes and weapons vOv

Basically, here's what happened.

Well, you're basically saying it's stupid to make fun of how catastrophic the Ouya was, so I dunno if you're in a position to get all self-righteous about people having opinions?

That's because being enthusiastic about stupid things is stupid, but schadenfreude owns. Also he idea that there's inherently something better about being "positive" or "constructive" is just childish. Positivity and earnestness can be p. neat, but there's nothing inherently virtuous in them.

"Is Hyperloop destined to be the pipe dream of Elon Musk"?

Except for the most part it actually is ongoing. Chronic racism, severe trauma, etc— these things actually have trans-generational effects both in terms of emotional and economic damage.

Actually it's not scrappy games developers creating a console, it's seasoned marketing veterans with no idea of how to actually run a business that has anything to do with manufacturing or engineering. vOv

The Ouya is a flop. Its marketplace is stillborn. People may play and enjoy it but there's no way it's a viable platform for most developers. It doesn't matter if you enjoy having a box to play roms or android titles on with your girlfriend, it's still a failure.

No they didn't. They used deceptive marketing to generate a boatload of hype without even bothering to put in any real work when it comes to making worthwhile hardware. The Ouya at no point represented genuine change and its brand identity was incredibly incoherent.

This is basically the only reasonable attitude to have about the Ouya. Balance is a journalistic vice.

It was fairly deceptively marketed. They put out a survey, for instance, that implied that you'd be able to play AAA games on it.

It's not stripper though? Read my other post. Their documents say they're working in Food Service.
