why would you pay 5$ more and loose the DLC if you ever stop paying for the expansion pack when you can just pay a flat 25 and keep it forever.

Calling it an expansion pack was a mistake. I expected a $10 increase, not more than double what people are already paying for. Wondering if this will flop. It costs nearly as much as xbox live and playstation plus, and nintendo’s only incentive are old games, while playstation and xbox both offer new titles each…

I mean the DLC is $25 alone yea which is worth it it seems for what you are getting, but you’ll need an active Online at $50 to play it “for free” which will be another $50 in a year if you ever want to go back and play that DLC

It requires a connection every 30 days. Tough luck to those who bought the game these past days because they couldn't even play it offline. 

Even if they did waive their rights, they would still need to be paid per the hypothetical contract, assuming the developers did not somehow sign a contract that did not specify payment.

To be truly fair, she apologised for that and explained it was based on an inside joke about Saudi princes that used to be popular on twitch. I’ve yet to see a single other example of her exhibiting similar sentiments, so I’m inclined to believe it really was just an insensitive joke that didn’t land, and not an…

I mean that’s cool and all but you need a jailbroken Switch to get save data off it from my understanding. Kind of leaves most people like myself without options.

So, they asked everyone if we wanted it in that poll like 2 weeks ago knowing full-well that it wasn’t going to be in the game, but asked anyway and got everyone’s hopes up so that when they did announce that it wasn’t coming they could say they heard us and they “tried”

The PC version of Rise is still 3+ months away.…

Made this years ago for a Kotaku Photomanip Contest that Owen Good ran when he was here, it’s sad knowing that the pic is still relevant nowadays.

Because it goes against GOGs entire mission statement.

Because honestly it shouldn’t have been on GoG to begin with even if had disclosed the full extent of online functionality. Live service games have no place on GoG if they can’t be fully playable offline and never touching the internet. GoG’s meant for the folk who lament that a digital only game doesn’t have the…

Or don't support the dev and choose not to play it. 

Once I realized its a WB published game I knew something was going to happen. Shadows of War is still fresh in my memory.

I was really excited for this game originally, but the more I hear about it the more my enthusiasm is blunted

The devs have pretty strongly implied there are financial barriers associated with Nick itself that prevented the inclusion of voice acting. They’re a small indy team and it seems like Nick was not willing to front the cost of bringing in new VA work. I’ve seen folks ask why they don’t just use audio pre-recorded from…

“Platform fighter” has kind of become a genre past Smash. Mechanically this game is different in meaningful ways, just like Brawlhalla or Rivals of Aether. I think at this point calling any platform fighter a Smash ripoff is a bit like calling Mortal Kombat a Street Fighter ripoff.

I love you for counting.

I discovered the same thing playing Metroid: Zero Mission on my recently purchased Anbernic 351V. Playing around in the RetroArch options, I accidentally found the filter that emulates the original GBA screen, and was amazed by how more natural the colours looked. Even as someone that never owned a GBA, I appreciated…

I got the same vibe.
