as a fan of the series, i disagree, it’s just recycled moments from two games. I don’t hate it, but it’s a failure.

On the contrary, Tabata is responsible for getting ffxv released at all, after *Nomura* mismanaged the project for nearly a decade

Maybe a meeting with Molyneux could create an ouroboros of lies so unending we won’t hear from either ever again?

People like to exaggerate because they know that their opinions on things aren’t that outstanding to cause attention. So, they make it seem like it should require more attention.

How many times these people are going after the “easy answers”?

My favorite version is still Bang Bus...

Well good for her, do yo thang.

I think the feedback has been largely balanced, no one is calling to white wash his contributions out but are questioning the timing. To his credit, his response was a reasonable one indicating an apology for his past behaviour and how it may have impacted people (though in a slightly wishy-washy sorry to offend kind…

Do your goddamn research. It says RIGHT IN THE POST that CNN has covered this story, and more extensively. Had you taken the three seconds to glance at that coverage before posting your scorching-hot take that a drug-addicted adoptee should grow up to turn on and scorn her adoptive parents, you’d see that the officer…

Great point midway through the article about the rich acting as if they add value when often, they don’t. Do some add value to society in one way or another? Sure. You could make that argument for Bill Gates or the late Steve Jobs and some others. But most don’t, especially if they’re born into it. Which is fine on…

For most of the game he is kind of an ass, he gets better at the end when he kind of knows what he wants.

He’s a golem made of mayonnaise.

Wow. That was “internetty” :)

IPHONE IS A BETTER THAN SWITCH, THIS MAN SAID IT.

This is double fake outrage. That “controversy” link in your article is a reddit thread where about 1 in 100 people are actually upset about this. This is the type of journalism that makes people so suspicious of the media and so inflammatory towards other people. There is no controversy. You grabbed your shovel and…

Ironically while the content has gotten so much better, I’d even say it’s streets ahead, a lot of times the article headlines have gotten incredible clickbaity. It’s like, something had to give:P

Its not price gouging thats a very different offense. Nor is it racketeering (asking for protection money). This is more an instance of vertical tying. Where you only allow the consumer to purchase an item if they purchase another item.

“...and why observers like me worry that the video game industry’s current path is not sustainable”

...get the 12 remaster instead. It’s 2x the game 14 is.

It’s probably doing just as well in the US as more people shop online. As they say: location, location, location. It is infinitely to open up a browser and buy on Amazon that it is to make you way to a best buy. Imagine having to get off your chair and shower for god’s sake. Just to go to best buy. No way.
