Thank you early adopters for taking the hit while many of us (involuntarily) wait until spring when supplies and new games are plentiful like the Covid-19 vaccine... I’ll just crank up my trusty PS3 then and start playing Red Dead Redemption which I abandoned all those years ago after one hour of playtime. Maybe now…

No gymnastics necessary.  If the game is good, buy it.

Sounds like they’re preying on FOMO and it’s a shitty look for them.

If there are exclusive games for the “Switch Pro” then it will HAVE to be portable as well. People buy Switch versions of multiplats strictly for the portable nature. Making it a set-top console would alienate a significant (like, probably around 50%) of the Switch’s userbase. And I don’t know if Nintendo’s willing to…

It legitimately frightens me to imagine being as pathetic as these goons in the comments who frame griefing in an online game as a moral failing

And the magic. Being able to drop a flaming skull into the enemy’s battle line really helps battles from just turning into a slog of guys beating on each other.

I don’t wanna yuck anyone’s yum, but boy does this game not sound remotely fun. 

That’s what *some* people wanted. If the remake had been like the hypothetical one you described I would’ve had zero interest in it at all, but once I started seeing what they were doing with it it changed my mind and made me actually want this version of the game (previously I was against the idea of remaking the…

This came about because they looked at FFVII and realized that just slapping a new coat of paint on it would be like trying to shine a turd.

FFVII is really deficient and would be terrible if just remade as it was with better graphics.

I think chopping FF7 into several parts is also a way for SE to manage risk.

It’s sad that people have this kind of view because you are seriously mistaken. It’s not that this virus could “end the world”. It’s just simply that you don’t want a virus that has never infected humans before to gain a foot hold and have it be another seasonal virus since the flu already kills thousands. I see so…

No no no. Dreams is currently in a very good, collaborative, monetization-less place. No marketplace spamming of ripoff assets. No worrying about your wallet to collaborate. Please let us have this one thing that’s just for fun.

I’ve come to realize that the games as a service model isn’t for me. It all started with Destiny, then Destiny 2. I’ve bought into both Destiny games, along with both Division games, and really got burned with Anthem. While I initially had fun with them all, Destiny in particular due to the great people I met in my…

dude when my and a friend started, we’d never touched an MMO. We made Draenei and took the boat at level 8 to Menethil Harbor, thinking we could get to Ironforge by following the coastline. We ended up swimming all the way to Booty Bay, it took *hours* as we died a couple times trying to run past mobs in Westfall when…

I’m with you, Vanilla WOW was one of my best gamer experiences ever. Riding into Ogri for the first time as one my beloved Horde....mindblowing

The straightforward naming simplicity of ‘PS4' and ‘PS5' is looking mighty good right now.

Shoulda just called it The Monolith or something...

Where did you read that the PS4 was supposed to have backwards compatibility? There was no official statement to that effect (fan videos and random journo speculations don’t count). As opposed to PS5 which has been officially confirmed to have it.

Wait what?  You’re just now learning that this release is only a part of the whole original story?  If that’s so, then I doubt you’ve been on the “hype bandwagon” because this has been common knowledge for a looooong time.

Because the cost to make this game is a small fraction of the cost of BotW.
