Forgive my ignorance, but are every previous Pokemons included in those sequels? I played a bit of Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow, but that’s really it...

Not only do you need to own a proprietary device (a Nintendo Switch), but you also have to pay for recurring subscription fee. If only it would be available on PC...

This game made me stop pre-ordering. 😅

Also, the game was sold, at best, as an asynchronous multiplayer game... When I preordered the game, Sean’s description about “community” was limited to asynchronous multiplayer.

Me, on PC, waiting for Hello Games to acknowledge that they broke the game in August 2017 when they released the “Atlas Rises” update. They still have to stich the pre-patch story with the reworked one, and improve the UX by a lot... ...

If they run the infrastructure themselves... That’s how I can to that hypothesis. Anyway... I don’t really care. I just think people to stop being manichean when talking about blockchain. It ain’t revolutionary, nor evil.

This is awesome!

Me neither. I was so pissed I gave my Switch to my godson. Is it an entertaining game? I guess it is, according to Metacritic. Is it the Zelda game I expected? Definitely not.

I agree with your take. Blockchain is not the revolution that speculators and business people want us to believe it is.

That’s my problem with NFT: it has the potential to increase the average amount exchanged during a microtransaction, because some publishers will try to sell uniqueness or exclusivity. The blockchain technologies have the potential to free devs and publishers from the existing transaction platforms and middlemen,…

I think they have the potential to free smaller publishers or even developers from third parties if they decide to sell cosmetics through microtransactions, because the blockchain is decentralized, meaning there’s no need to rely on PayPal or Steam’s shopping cart.

I don’t think your comment applies to @dhammer94 though... dhammer94's comment seems quite reasonable. I did not read the rest of the thread since dhammer94's comment is the top one.

Well... I don’t see anything wrong with this. 🤷‍♂️

I so agree with you... ... Except for some online games like Fortnite, Apex Legends, Grand Theft Auto Online, RDO, etc.

What is that?

All I know about RDR2 is that they broke the immersion on December 2020 when they updated the game in preparation for the RDO standalone client. It added this weird bug where the Van der Linde Gang members would keep commenting about Arthur not being dressed warm enough... It resulted in each visit at the camp having…

Exactly. I hate it when every damn NPC is a quest dispenser with no soul. I liked it when NPCs were actively contributing to the atmosphere of a game.

I also remember having a lot of fun with Super Mario Land games and Wario Land games on the original GameBoy and those games were really short.

AMEN! I just commented about something similar. 😅 That’s something I wish was implemented in pretty much every big games.

We need modifiers like “Main Story Missions only” and “Prevent NPCs from asking you about Side Missions”.
