Debstinction

Fusion has a TON of sequence breaking. Some of them are even acknowledged in dialog.

6/15/21

I’m not trying to be a jerk, but what was wrong with Fusion? I thought it was great and it received pretty much universal acclaim.

6/15/21

I have played ALMOST EVERY SINGLE GAMES in the series (yes, especially Other M which has decent gameplay but has definitely the worst plot in series) and I literally cannot wait to see how they finally continue the story after Fusion.

I generally try to avoid telling people their opinions are wrong. But Metroid Fusion was not just bad, but astonishingly bad? I’ve never played an astonishingly bad Nintendo game. And to date the only Metroid I would even describe as “failed to meet expectations” was Samus Returns. Of course I was playing that during…

I... do not think many people share your opinion of Fusion. Are you sure you weren’t thinking of Other M?

6/15/21

It was? I thought Fusion was great. I first played it on the Wii U, so it’s not like I have nostalgia goggles on.

6/15/21

Fusion was great. Other M is the one we don’t talk about.

Well there is one thing that was missing: Drax’s saxophone…

It was R8. Sturm(sp?), the propeller miniboss, was a more-or-less ripped off design from the movie Frankenstein’s Army. The director of the movie called it out themselves on social media.

It was because of data leak at Capcom last year revealed this info.

I remember Okami for the Wii had an IGN watermark on the front cover.

The problem with infringement is you have to be aware of it.

6/6/21

Because the Capcom hack exposed the internal files which they found to be copies of their work.

6/6/21

Believe it or not, not everyone pays attention to videogames.

6/6/21

one thing that the Polygon report mentions is that the Capcom hack from last year revealed the same file names in both RE4 and the book, so probably that was the smoking gun that pushed this lawsuit forward.

6/6/21

Even without the files names, it’s immediately obvious just by looking at them that they’re the same image. Nobody could argue against it.

Tell me you don't understand cultural appropriation without telling me you don't understand cultural appropriation.

You’re gonna have someone making some loose allegorical connection to something in reality no matter how fake it all is.

5/28/21

it’s actually really difficult to avoid any connections to real world beliefs: By the time the story has a political component to its conflict, there’s an implicit debate about how society is structured. If the game wants to avoid making a statement about real world politics in doing so, it has to do one of:
1) Make…

I don’t know how you say that seriously. Making it take place in a fictional setting doesn’t disconnect anything you do from real life or making a statement. You can draw conclusions about Tolkien’s worldview from his fictional world building.
