There’s some truth to this. I mean I think they’re hoping some fans of the games will come and check it out.

This article read as “Oh hey, Yoshi-P said FFXIV won’t incorporate FFXIV at all. Great. But how dare he not come out and say it was a scam and blah blah”

This. In 2016 I jailbroke my 2ds and it took roughly 2 hours, most of it was checking the integrity of my SD card though. It was still a relatively involved process.

In 2020 I bought a 2DS XL and it took 15 minutes. So glad I did too because Nintendo’s attitude of “Fuck you” when it comes to classic games is…

on xbox whatever version your console should have has likely automatically downloaded and installed the update today.

*spends just as much time opening the game because it updated automatically*

I’m kinda shocked that gender locked classes WERE a thing because I haven’t encountered them in any of the MMOs that I’ve played. At least that I can remember. The biggest thing were the Gender locked races in FFXIV but they’re doing away with that.

Also, there’s the whole “intentionally bricking systems” thing

This is different. Yeah, you can run what you want if you have the means. That’s what the other (The free ones)custom firmwares run on. You take the risk of getting banned from online services by Nintendo. If you do, then you can still use your switch with workarounds for updating and such.

What SXOS did was…

No, they sold a CFW with a bricker that could intentionally render your $300 system completely useless. That’s honestly even worse.

Her head would probably explode just from reading your comment. It would make her realize that she failed as a teacher since they/them is apparently a foreign concept for you.

but it sure seems excessive that he’s losing three years of his life due to selling video game modchips.

This. I alluded to this in another article when they brought up prordering. It’s becoming less “informing you of gaming news” and more “telling you what you should be mad at.” and “This is my opinion and everyone should share it.”

Yes. Aside from the grips and the share button, the XB1 and XSX controllers are pretty much identical. Hell, you can even use an XSX controller on an XB1

From what I’ve heard, yeah, it’s still a thing. If it’s not a huge AAA game and you want a physical copy then yeah, preordering is your best bet.

I absolutely love this game, but yeah, the graphics are relatively crappy for what they could be. Now I’m not expecting hyper realism or anything. I do know Pokemon has a certain art style. But I wouldn’t call it one of the best looking games either.

The sad thing is that it COULD have been useful and it does have potential. However because people mostly used it to scam other people, it’s always going to have that stigma attached to it. It doesn’t help that the vast majority of people are against it and companies are going “Yeah, fuck you. We only care about…

While this isn’t the first time we’ve seen a studio use early access to help sell a more expensive version of its game, it’s still a strange strategy.

That’s pretty freaking accurate really.

Monster Hunter Rise, which was switch exclusive until the PC release. Monster Hunter Stories 2 is also only on switch and PC.

Honestly, when the rest of the site constantly rails on NFTs and generally flooded with NFT stories, yeah, I consider the Sega story a bigger deal.
