Maybe don’t call your game a blockbuster until that’s actually an established fact.

“You get a lot of loot” was true of D3 on launch and that game had terrible itemization. Of course, a lot of that was to support the real money auction house by making actual good end-game drops far easier to buy off someone else than actually get. That was all fixed with time, but not after the damage was done. (The…

Far from it, I’ve been playing narrative based action games and RPGS for decades. My point is that in general, sex in video games has never been handled well, but I don’t have an objection to its inclusion if it makes sense. I’m aware it’s not constant and sex minigames are pretty much a thing of the past, at least in…

Implied sex or even a movie style sex scene as part of the narrative would be fine, but the way it’s been presented in most mainstream games outside of fade-to-black-right-away is cringey and embarrassing. It’s almost always presented as a prize or occasionally as a bad mini-game, and it’s almost always awkward…

The fact that it has veteran players for the state it’s in tells you everything you need to know about this game.

This guy got it ;)

Somewhere though there’s a King Shark superfan who’s been waiting for the character’s chance to shine, and is extremely distraught over this :)

At least in America, it really isn’t. Overall, we have some of the worst internet in the developed world. I’ve seen it first hand, helping to manage a remote work force in several states.

Idk they did Cappy, maybe next main series Mario game introduces Booty

Company’s always been kind of messy.
Pre-ordered The Suffering for Gamecube, never told that version was canceled so when I went in to pick it up, I had a $5 credit and shit else.
Pre-ordered Starcraft Ghost for Gamecube. Was never told it was canceled; luckily, I found that out on my own.
Pre-ordered Silent 4: The Room…

Regardless of its roots, the term “JRPG” has lost any teeth it may have had: it’s a type of game now that is an RPG where certain tropes and mechanics are expected, rather than an RPG made in Japan. Anyone anywhere can make a JRPG or at the very least a “JRPG-style” game and that’s just squabbling over semantics.

Lol not really, there’s not really much she can do with extra money that she can’t already do with the money she has. She’s rich as fuck.

That’s what’s super fun about corporations nowadays, the shareholders and CEOs all demand infinite growth potential which is, like, literally impossible, instead of just reaching a certain level and being all “this is pretty good.”

While the comparison to the Beanie Baby bubble is inevitable, Funko Pops present a completely different market as they aren’t random animals sometimes named after dead royalty, but depictions of already (to varying degrees) popular characters.

My gut tells me it’s less a bottoming out of the speculation market and more…

Wasn’t JK Rowling one of the richest women in the world well before any of her bullshit came to light? She could literally never earn again and have no problem promoting her views on any platform she wanted until the day she dies.

“break the allure that so many J.K. Rowling defenders fight so doggedly to protect.”

Stopped reading right there. Enough of this bull shit! Being a fan of Harry Potter does not automatically make someone a J.K. Rowling defender. Yes I understand there are implications, i.e. supporting her financially helps in her quest…

THIS.
John Lennon literally beat women but him and the Beatles get a free pass because we’re at the point where you can’t undo what they did to modern pop culture.
Cancel culture is so fickle and inconsistent.

Ratio doesn’t matter when the number of good games is still higher.

The main benefits to console gaming outside of exclusives (which are quickly becoming a Nintendo-only thing) - ease of use and hardware optimization - are pretty much gone nowadays. There’s as many settings to play with on a PS5 or XBox X/S game now…

idk, have you been on the internet lately? Everything brings out the assholes. Some things more than others, I’m sure, but still.

“It runs out of ~Steam~ and drops you off to literally pay for any kind of progress you want to make.”

As someone who’s deep into the endgame, I can only understand these comments in the context of someone who hasn’t actually played Lost Ark much, or who is incapable of separating their own gambling addiction from what…
