I wasn’t talking about that article, I was talking about the one in which we are commenting and the opinions and quotes contained therein.

While I agree, I must say, it seems you feel just a tad bit more passionate about this issue than I. =x

The point is, games generally intend for you to earn your progression. There’s a reason why level select in the past was generally only made available post-completion and via cheat codes.

Nowhere in the entire article was anything said about co-op; and even the quote from the campaign director was worded in a way that heavily implies single-player experience.

We have had this since a long time ago. then it was called “Level Select”. You typically unlock it by beating the game (or appropriate section[s]) at least once, or emulate it by saving to new slots periodically (When I played e.g. DOOM I would use a new save for each level, so I could later jump back to any level I…

that wasn’t the part that made it scammish. It’s the bit after that, where buying it when it’s on ‘sale’ and launching the game with the card on your account makes the game unrefundable.

It’s a complex and not entirely clear issue, stemming from two different companies claiming license authority over the mech designs in question.

eh, not really, no. I mean, the progression is similar in that you’re presented with choices that affect the outcome of the game, but the presentation is completely different. Quantic’s games are closer to motion-comics — still fully-animated (well, 3d in this case) real-time media, like a long…

I’m not intimately familiar with motion comics, so I had to go hunt a few down to familiarize myself with them, but from the looks of it, they’re almost entirely different.

Who isn’t strangely obsessed with robot sex?

lmao

A) Female characteristics are relatively easy to disguise, and traditionally female actors have been playing male stage roles for generations.

lillypads will already asplode your boat if you hit too many of them. My friends and I have discovered that the hard way.

And why the hell not? =x

Possibly; the one at the bottom-right I didn’t recognize because of the art style, but it turned out to be the main character from Black Bullet, which I’ve watched.

....really? none of them? there are a bunch of really major characters from well-known series in the image alone... There are are only maybe two or three that I don’t recognize, and part of that may just be that I’m not quite as familiar with the light novel art styles...

You and I must not have been watching the same video. Looking at the video in 1080p60, it’s plainly obvious for both the PS4 and PC versions that there are three-dimensional blades of grass covering the field for the close-up shot. You can even see the grass in front of the ball and shoe, and even clearly see the…

oddly, Knights of Sidonia was what came to mind when I saw that one.

Really, Kotaku? The hell is this shit? No Sylveon??

i must have this game. that is all.
