Well, for one thing Amazon keeps a record of your purchases, which some people might not be very appreciative of. In a physical store you can walk in with some cash and there's no awkward trace of your desire for a horse dong shaped dildo and some nipple clamps.

Here in GOD'S MURICA!!WOOOOO, FREEDOM is SACROSANCT! Except for those commie beliefs like being a pussy and not shooting people, or needing a warrant to search black folks and sand niggers. Don't try to use any of your LIBRUL LIES like logic or that science stuff either! TEACH THE CONTROVERSY!!! GOD wrote the…

..yet we deal with Kinja..

There is literally no place for women to gather on the internet without shit ton of misogynists following.

Some of the mechanical details might have changed, but pretty much anything you can imagine people doing with or to each other? They were doing it in caves before they were writing down history.

Choice is good. Trimmed, hairy, bald, as long as the person wearing it likes it, it's nobody else's business.

Hey, why settle for 8-bit art if you want imagination and ambience? Why not ASCII art!? I mean, who doesn't want a 4K monitor for Nethack.

Calling someone an asshole because you don't like what they have to say is going to make a person defensive. Amazing, right?

There are other styles that are pleasing to the eye that don't cost 3rd world country budgets to develop. 2d vector graphic sprites for instance, or hand drawn cell art, as another.

Wow, Tkleth calls me an asshole for suggesting 8-bit graphics looks like shit, says I'm a troll and mocking (how do you mock an inanimate bit of software anyway?) this game, I call him out on that and now here you are bitching about my response, but not a word about his. It's so tragic how many people have such thin…

It's amazing how butt-hurt you are about someone voicing their opinion. Hopefully you live in a vacuum where no one ever disagrees with you.

Until there's a restriction on the website that says "Hey, only comment if you want to give this game a hand job and call it Christmas!" then I've got the right to critique the games choice of graphics and that I won't buy a game I might otherwise have liked because of it.

When cell shading was first introduced, it did look pretty bad. But! It had room to improve, and has done so. 8-Bit will never be better than what it is, and was best on the hardware of the era it was originally created.

You know, there's no reason they couldn't have made a 2D isometric game without using 8-bit style sprites. They could have done something like The Banner Saga. There's also the problem that games that choose to go the 8-bit graphics direction are forced to make an 8-big user interface to match, and trying to read…

Let's see, for one thing, CRT's were interlaced, only displaying half of the image on half of it's pixel rows at a time. This meant that the coders of old games could use that fact to keep their graphics at half resolution and save memory on the cartridges. The phosphorous glow of the pixels was taken advantage of…

The problem with that, is that originally 8/16-bit games ran on a TV set, often at 320x240 and used a number of tricks inherent in the hardware to fill out the 640x480 TV resolution.

The problem is 8-bit/16-bit looks like shit.

Yes! God knows I built an i5 with 16GBs of RAM and an nVidia GTX 760 PRECISELY so I can play the shit out of a highly pixelated RPG game..

What, really, that's the worst that can happen? Getting cheated on or divorced? How about catching an STD? Ooor getting killed by some jealous lover you never met before? Your concept of 'worst' is pretty shallow.

A total of... ZERO Native American Languages! Is this shit even in sign language? WHARRGARBLEGARBLE RACISTS!
