I mean:

Whatever a ratio is on Kinja, this is it. RIP jed.

Fantastic kinja. A-. Lowered you half a grade point for not including “snowflake.”

Now do this to DQ 5 and and you can have all my money.

I finally played DQ V on the DS when the pandemic hit. I’ve played video games since 1991. It’s the best narrative I’ve experienced in an RPG. The world is huge, you can recruit monsters, there’s marriage. Completely floored me. If you can find it, play the hell out of it.

Does CNN have some deal with Italy’s tourism industry? There’s maybe two or three articles about visiting Italy a week, along with these $1/house stories.

Sci-fi theme 4 lyfe!

I’d rather not communicate with someone who talks down to a peer as a matter of course. But, alas.

1. I thought you weren’t supposed to use soap with cast iron. I’ve been cleaning it while it’s hot with chain mail, drying thoroughly, and then heating/oiling. How wrong am I doing it?

Nah, wrong reading of my logic.

The more you have to write to defend your position, the thinner your argument becomes.

Silly, I never said you had to care. I’d like studios to treat their devs better. Apparently, you do not.

A summation by paragraph:

While I disagree with your takes, I appreciate the discussion. However:

Why do people insist that selling broken games for $60.00 is acceptable? Why point to other failures at launch and say, “See, these other failures became classics?” Why aren’t we pointing at these examples saying, “See, these games were also rushed by Admin/Advert, and they should not be released in this state?”

The devs and company admitted they shipped a product that is broken on PS4 and Xbox. What other evidence do you need?

Your takes have aged well. “That small but vocal” group of gamers have nothing but sour grapes, right? The refunds, CDPR public apology, I mean, what else do you want?

Forget FE, dear god can’t they just port DQV to Switch already? I only want the one thing for MEEEEEE

I’m interested - Does your logic extend to every facet of the human experience? Is one only allowed to complain about something unless they have first-hand experience within the area of complaint? ie -

Nary a soul is criticizing the devs. They are criticizing upper management and advertising. I don’t know why you keep insisting you know the remedy to people’s ills when you can’t actually diagnose the symptoms.
