Just wanted to say thanks to the Kotaku comments section for this chuckle.

This is such an American issue with *everything* that it almost feels like it’s part of the culture at this point. We have no reverence for “old” things, and would rather just wipe over everything with all the new stuff, and pretend like the old stuff never existed.

Here’s to piracy. It’s really the only reason why video games from the 80s & 90s are still available to play. Want to play that arcade game you spent way too many quarters on back in the day? Piracy lets you do that. Want to play a beloved Atari or Sega Master System game? Piracy lets you do that. The companies that…

It’s not that hard to find new weapons in Redfall. It’s just tedious when you have to do it so frequently and the boring perks make it even less exciting. In a loot shooter, the loot chase is supposed to be fun but that’s not the case in Redfall. It just feels like more of a chore.

“You don’t care about the story beats so much, [you’re] just there to grind enemies, gain levels and unlock new gear. And in fairness that part of Redfall’s loop is solid.”

Remember kids. Piracy is WRONG. You should always respect the decisions of a megacorporation. They’re better than you and they’re a better judge of what’s right and wrong. If the corp decides that a movie should never be seen again, you should bow to their supreme wisdom.

This tactic should be on the table in the writers strike, if it isn’t already. All creative should insist on contracts that protect their works — at the very minimum, prevent them from going into a vault, never to be seen again, all for the sake of a write-off.

CAST DEVELOPMENT INTO THE FIRE!!! DESTROY IT!!!

They also took out a kick starter-backed goal (the Russian announcer) and a lot of content from the official art book has been altered, but the big thing that absolutely should have been left in was Big Band, a black character, getting beaten to a pulp by crooked cops. It’s vital to his story arc and erasing it is…

Ethan, your fanboy is showing. Here’s the stuff that you left out.  This case has done nothing but make the FTC look ignorant.

Yeah, he’s an absolute tool, but...

It might take time getting used to but a friend couldn’t help but notice how many of the character’s poses and animations seem directly lifted from the art style of the old instruction manuals which seem to be a very nice touch.

Honestly I was absolutely not expecting a new 2D-ish game so I’m tempted to give this one a…

That art style is terrible.

Every time I booted up Infinite S3, it would autoplay the cutscenes as if I hadn’t seen them already. Happy that won’t be a problem now lol.

I feel ActiBliz’s mtx model relies on a base of players with Stockholm Syndrome

You know... for the Christmas tree!

And a day 1 patch. And a fan mod to fixes a bug that erases your save files.

There’s statues of Lois Lane holding Superman’s dead body, this isn’t that extreme.

I just..... really hope the NFT and Crypto and Web 3.0 and every other buzzword flinging will finally stop
