The same people who insist video games can be art are the first ones to get pissy when they start being held to the same standards.

I am so sick of devs being asked, every three seconds, about Switch versions of everything. This sort of port begging is absolutely disgusting. If they started asking them about PS4 versions for every Switch title, everyone would make a big stink about it, but since Nintendo can do no wrong to the Orthodox…

The key difference here is Capcom has refined MH over the years and created the ultimate version of it, as a game to be played by new and old players for possibly years to come. Destiny is a platform to sell microtransactions and expansion passes to make as much money as humanly possible in the shortest amount of time.

But the subdued color palette makes sense for a lot of games. I think that’s the major difference between the palette choice in a lot of japanses games(Both Nier games also come to mind).

The style that you call bland, isn’t supposed to invoke beauty in the instantly gratifying way saturated color palettes do. It’s…

Educating people is the way to the future, suppressing information (like you want) is not.

While it’s true that most of the original 90s fans have aged, it doesn’t mean the games aren’t worse by comparison. You had the occasional mess like VIII (story-wise only, the rest of the game was pretty great), but 4,5,6,7,9 are great games which are still universally praised. I liked X even it if had a whiny…

And then he made the fullbringers and the alphabet soup Nazis, and could not honor the kid.

Just because you weren’t aware of the trend doesn’t mean it didn’t exist. Lolicon has been an established genre since the late 70's. The first hentai OVA ever produced is lolicon. It just hasn’t been as “in-your-face” until now because it has historically been far too extreme to be commercially viable here.

The whole thing with anime and manga ends up being a clustercrap of ambiguity and blurring of the lines where it comes to characters under the age of fifteen, and sometimes for more honest reasons.

So if I follow:

Should everything ever that references something old have a disclaimer that says ‘in this era people were racist/sexist/etc’?

Dumb article that only exists for a click, which in turn references a dumb essay that itself only exists for a click.

“Hey guys, some people used this art/historical moment/idea for racist/sexist/etc. purposes, and it is wrong wrong wrong to reference the art/historical moment/idea without referencing (read:…

Pretty sure that’s the point and why we see him rot as a display of progression. There’s a reason that the triumphant music stops when that final blow is landed and a requiem starts. Shadow of the Colossus starts out about a game of hanging on, but really it’s a game about letting go. Which is why it’s the last thing…

That is highly debatable. Xenoblade was one of those games that got a lot of buzz because it was a Wii RPG that didn’t suck. Case in point, look how Xenoblade Chronicles fared compared to it. It was a good game, but I personally wouldn’t say it’s anywhere near the top RPG’s of all time. Xenoblade borrowed heavily from…

It’s not the Capcom of old. The fugly art is a pretty blatant reminder of that. Whether the F2P model is justified or not, I just think it’s important to remember that with few exceptions Capcom has been stepping in shit for the last several years. They used to be my favorite developer / publisher. In the mid 2000s…

Terrell,

You don’t understand piracy or how corporations work it seems. Only certain people in a corporation get a cut of the profits, so only a few developers would get any money from this (though this is Nintendo so they likely don’t give higher up devs any profits), and all the other devs get paid with their regular…

This is why I feel the reaction in this article is a bit unfounded. Interpret it as you may but it seems like the game made it very clear there is a merchant who “found a way to sneak into the gerudo town” this implies the game makes no joke about trans people or those who cross dress but instead pokes fun at the…

Mistakes were not made. They made the game they wanted to make it. You may want it to be different and that’s fine. But the definition of a “mistake” is not “they didn’t do what I wanted them to do.”

that they are actually offended by this is unboliviable.
