The problem is the speed element. As a concept, speed works in a 2d environment because even at maximum speed there is a visual perception of incredible speed without disorienting the player and more or less the player doesn’t become the weak link by failing to control properly.

Or just ignore fan opinion.

It’s a bit of a Kotaku/io9 trend if I’m being honest. I’m not really Cyberpunk’s biggest fan, but a part of the author’s statement can almost be read as the “viewer” is too stupid to pick up messaging if they are not clubbed over the head with it.

In a legal sense who wrote it isn’t going to be as important as who said it. There might be a legal case there against the ACLU but since the ACLU didn’t actually say it, Amber Heard did I’m pretty sure legally she is still the correct party for suit.

That is also probably to some extent why pop culture moments don’t seem to happen the same way. Something like Star Wars could crowd everything else out because there wasn’t a substitute being released 5 minutes later. Everyone didn’t have Tumblr/Reddit/Etc. to OD on the topic after 1 month.

Have a cookie?

Honestly I thought it was weird he wasn’t mentioned.

Executives should keep in mind that although Marvel fans own the box office, that’s not necessarily something that’s been replicated in games.  Game fans actually have their own properties in a way Movies haven’t seemed to be able to do for a few decades.  John Wick and... ?

Being a “traditional” capital G Gamer before that was even a thing, I believe to some extent caring about what others think about your gaming habits is by itself self-defeating. I mean, outside of my friends we didn’t care who like Doom, or Space Quest or Space Harrier or Defenders or Phantasy Star. As I’ve grown…

For an entry level game, sure.

Here’s the thing - what people will tolerate and what they won’t is largely an arbitrary line which is both personal but at the same time social.

I feel like Sony is a better match if it’s going to be in the Japan market. Perhaps everyone involved has changed over at this point - but sort of like Nintendo laughing at Microsoft’s offer to buy them when they weren’t at the top, you’d have to think long time Sega corporate execs and staffs would bristle at the…

As a Sega fan, you have described a nightmare that would give me cold sweats. Let Sony by them. Or Microsoft. Or literally anyone else.

The idea that your online persona isn’t “the real you” doesn’t actually only cut against people with outside parasocial relationships on the “right end”.

It would be nice if it could have been earlier but Supreme Court schedules don’t match election cycles. So his choices if he were not to just quit in the middle of the docket, were to either retire while Republicans still had control of the Presidency or wait until the end of the next term where Republicans didn’t…

I wish someone would ungrey me just because commenting is kind of pointless like this.

My issue is that the boss fight in Persona 5 Royal for Okumura as so bad and is such a game breaking flaw, Royal doesn’t belong ahead of its originating game. There’s a lot of content that’s locked behind either “hint guiding” your way through it or just already being built properly to execute the mechanic the game…

Pretty sure if G4 is aiming for any demographic, Kotaku is not going to overlap it.

It’s not just that they were doing things in house.

This is the correct take away.
