I watched my friend play Horizon Zero Dawn and the lip syncing there is TERRIBLE. It’s not just that it’s dead and unnatural, like in Mass Effect Andromeda, it’s that the developer doesn’t even seem to have tried lip syncing. They were like, “as long as lips are flying, people will know who’s talking.”

Keeping a Korok seed is probably a good idea, but you can forgo the others for the most part. You can use your bomb rune to chop wood and break rocks. Rather than use a torch, you can carry a fire weapon (assuming you can find one,) also, I find that torches aren’t generally useful. The game isn’t dark enough to need…

Jeez, Brawlhalla still isn’t out? It has been sitting in my Steam library since 2014.

The Japanese publisher of Demon’s Souls is Sony Entertainment. Point taken though, I didn’t realize that Sony is the NA publisher of Bloodborne, so there’s a chance there.

I haven’t watched in like five years, but Crunchyroll had a big banner announcing “the moment you waiting for has arrived. Watch Naruto and Hinata get married now!” Obviously, I decided watched it, and in typical Naruto fashion, we’re now five episodes in people trying to find wedding gifts for Naruto and Hinata. I…

A 3 minute long ad for a mod disguised as another Kotaku article? Interesting.

Good to hear. The past few months of new games have been piss poor, so they needed to have some sort of big addition to make up for it.

Don’t hold your breath. They haven’t added Demon’s Souls yet, so I doubt they’ll give us Bloodborne.

Nintendo has gone out of its way to brand it as a home console which you can take with you rather than a portable console that can be plugged into your TV.

As Necronaut said, it was already well into development before the announcement of the Switch.

It’s pretty common. The DS Lite had faulty hinges. The 3DS’ top screen would get scratched by the border on the bottom screen. The Switch’s dock is scratching the Switch proper’s screen.

Or if the cheapo piece of hardware breaks.

Maybe Dean should finish a single game before people expect anything of him.

There would be a shitstorm of colossal proportion if Shenmue 3 failed considering how much crowd funding it received in addition to whatever it got from Sony. Even if it’s a total turd, that game is coming out.

it meant that Nintendo had to scrap all of the ideas they had for the Wii U’s GamePad controller, like a separate map and a different control scheme.

I doubt going 3rd party caused them to become a shitty publisher. The reason they got shitty after going 3rd party is because they were already in the midst of their software death spiral, and the trend continued for years after before they started getting better again.

I think that if Nintendo announced they were backing out of the handheld market, Sony would jump back in and announce a new PSP within the year. The PSP and Vita would’ve sold much better if they didn’t have competition, and Nintendo has been the only competitor for decades.

Is that the weeaboo level where you can just desu and draw power from your Naruto headband?

Passing JLPT N1 (the most advanced Japanese language test) takes 3k-5k hours of studying, assuming you don’t already know kanji. If you already know kanji (because, for example, you’re fluent in Chinese,) it’ll take you about half of that. People who pass N1 are able to understand most things communicated in Japanese.
