You’re about to eat such a shit storm of comments for that...BUT I guess I might as well admit that I agree with you. I hope there is way more to this than I have read, because if not then this is verging on candlelight vigil territory in response to a douche acting like a douche.

“Prominent staff at the gaming site IGN say they’ve walked out today in the wake of allegation”

It’s just annoying to see hardware, already obsolete when it was announced a year ago, shouted about for its INCREDIBLE performance.

Because that is what this console is advertised as. A higher quality graphically and performance machine. In this instance it is fitting. As long as consoles exist, we are stuck at 30FPS because 60FPS doesn’t sell video games in trailers.. Its the graphics.

hmm thats all my PC runs it at 2k at 100+ fps

I’m... not sure I understand? The articles does mention it’s for the Switch.

Oh come on. I like Atlus and I want to support them. So instead of telling them about what platforms I can play it on, I should just buy a copy “even if I’m not going to play it on my Sony device”? Won’t that just confuse Atlus even more, cause they’ll think that their entire customer base in on Sony.

That’s not necessarily true for all of the developers though. Engine developers are hard to replace, it’s a job that requires top-quality coding skill and an extremely strong grip on mathematics and physics to do well, essentially you need to be a genius, or damn close to it. If a union could get the engine developers…

My favorite are the people that have 2,335 hours in a game who downvote it because it got boring

Hey, just wanted to give some input- by trying to make these podcasts look like articles, I am less inclined to actually listen to them.
