So sorry to hear this! I was really looking forward to playing Animal Crossing on my phone. I really really hate artificial timers in any mobile game, and here it’s really an insult to fans of the game.

Yakuza 0 (the greatest in the series, this game is really really amazing) and just a round of everybody’s golf 7, that game is fun but somewhat grindy and repetitive so I often just play 9 holes and just quit after that. But it’s good to have a game that you can just play casually for a short burst. Other than that…

Angry Joe’s intro movie about the loot crates (“This is just like it was in World War II!”) was spot on.

Or hard-pressing could show the toggle to turn wifi completely off...

You might say that Android has too much customisation. For every feature you could add more features, and then convenience and usability get lost in that process. In this case though... not sure why Apple wants us to keep our wifi always on... perhaps it’s convenient for stores with free wifi, so they can keep…

The “feature” that bluetooth turns itself back on without asking is the most annoying thing I’ve ever experienced on a smartphone. All they have achieved is that control center is no longer usable, and I have to go to settings every time I want to switch off wifi/bluetooth.

Without that notch, wouldn’t an iPhone be indistinguishable from any other new, modern, bezel-less smartphone? The notch is what sets the phone apart, I think they even made it a bit weird on purpose. (they could have made it a little bezel at the top instead of a notch but they chose not to) 

“less than minimum wage”

Well they ARE good at making you buy the same retro game in twelve different digital shops so they’re not completely ignoring the fact that the internet exists...

It’s weird how people always say that Nintendo is “lagging behind” just because their consoles aren’t focused on having the absolute latest in technology. N has always focused on the IDEA of gaming. What is gaming, what makes it fun? How can we improve the experience of gaming? Can we bring friends and family…

Ugh... without Nintendo there might not even BE game consoles...

Hey man now I want to see a Zelda flipbook!

Fart jokes, really?

It helps if you know who Deckard is, it adds some emotional weight to some scenes. But you don’t absolutely need it storywise.

Yup I loved the dino fights in Horizon Zero Dawn, they’re so ferocious, I was actually panicking in most fights - at least in the first half of the game. But you can run away to a point where they stop chasing you. Discovering the world was also reeeaaallly well done but the game became too easy near the end. The game…

Not shifting blame... just redistributing a bit... also my whole argument started with there being a cultural difference, so in that sense we agree. I just think that the west has been incredibly eager to exploit that difference, so it’s a tad hypocritical to judge it at the same time.

Just maybe some of that greed and cynicism is the result of decades of western exploitation... the west has profited immensely from China’s cheap labor and environmentally disastrous industrial policies. Not saying I approve of China’s practices, but we’re not the ones to be judging from our high horse while at the…

Culturally speaking, it seems that in many Asian countries ‘copying’ just isn’t considered all that bad to begin with? (I’ve read that Vietnam has no copyright law at all?) Apparently you can’t “own” an idea and also it’s only a compliment if you use someone else’s idea. Just guessing here.... :)

Phooeeyyy.... I love the music and visual style of this game, but will I have the patience for it... I highly doubt it...

Haha, lore you say? The flavor text that tries to justify why I need a different colored gun every 5 minutes and somehow make that into an epic legendary “story” ?? haha. I never understand why games even have that. Gosh, the world needs to be saved again, and only I can save it? Didn’t see that one coming.... If you…
