I’m so mad that Nintendo can’t be as creative as modders.

What are you even on about?

Which is the fallout of being cancelled?

The best way to remaster Chrono Trigger and Cross would be to just include more side content, more time travel shenanigans, and make everything prettier with more modern pixel art and FMVs.

I mean, the story of Chrono Trigger wasn’t exactly War and Peace, and the team behind FF14 is proving—imo—that SE still has what it takes within their ranks to create a very strong, enjoyable story and world.

At this point, we’re just going to end up argue nomenclature, because I do actually agree with what you’re saying. I just also happen to believe that “cancellation,” is a thing that exists, and can be used, without the Far Right’s interpretation of “cancel culture,” being front and center to the discussion.

No one is saying that? I’m saying that cancelling him literally resulted in him being deplatformed.

Read my comment, again. I’m saying cancelling “doesn’t work” with regards (wrt) to high profile personalities, but that in the case of less famous people—like Ellis, to a certain degree—it sometimes does.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I thought he’d retreated completely, but it seems like he’s still working on contracts/work he was on deck for finishing before all the news came to light.

re: Ellis - he chose to step away and, rightfully, decided to stop working in comics outside of the contracts/work he was already on deck to finish or start. Whether that translates into his entire career being over with, however, is another story. When the news came to light, he made his statement, apologized, and…

I didn’t know he was still working on new contracts. The last I heard, he was on deck for finishing things he’d been contracted to finish. If that isn’t the case, well.

Off the top of my head? Warren Ellis, a prolific comic book writer and ex-head writer for the critically acclaimed Castlevania series, was dropped like a hot sack of shit when claims about his abusing his position as a famous comic book author came out a year or so back.

okay, so

While I appreciate the fresh take—lord knows MH as a franchise needs it—someone needs to tell Yoko Taro that Dark and Dreary doesn’t automatically translate to Deep and Good Storytelling.

Instead of a remake, I’d rather they just hire the guy who did this

I NEED a remake of the entire LoK series like burning, you have no idea. one of the best stories of all gaming—better than anything the Witcher or TLoUs could pump out, that’s for sure) and better voice acting than like 99% of anime or games that have ever come out.

LEGACY OF KAIN (please just make a modern remake of the entire series, and then let the original writers FINISH THE SERIES good lord we had an entire ending basically completed before both projects were scrapped.)

Seeing as Fox already—excellently, imo—played the role of a man-eating demon from the bowels of hell, I’m going to go with her being a Mileena main.
