For those who don’t know, the “grape quality” thing is an in-joke referencing Yoshida’s other game, Final Fantasy XIV. When the Endwalker expansion launched in 2021, there was a vineyard in one of the starting areas with a bug in the grape models.

A company in decline charging their most dedicated customers more, for less benefits seems like a way to hasten the inevitable.

Have they been bought by a private equity firm yet? That’s going to signal their change from a physical store to a mall kiosk or even worse, a mall vending machine that prints on-demand paper vouchers for online things.

Not a joke, just the way Hollywood works.

Now Semen is a movie that would make loads. Everyone would come for that!

Out of my way, I’m getting those Earthworm Jim rights and nobody’s gonna stop me!

“If a good movie is successful, people will make bad movies." Is this a joke I'm missing? 

I’ve already bought the movie rights to the 1998 hit Playstation game Punky Skunk. Best $1.50 I’ve ever spent.
