I’m a big fan of MusicBee for managing local music content, and of Plex for streaming/syncing it to other devices.

Seriously. The headline should just be “A Game You Might Own Gets Extra Content You Might Want”.

Were you seriously running out of reasons to play your Switch?

Nintendo rescued the franchise from oblivion. They’ve earned it.

I mean, it could also be a deliberate homage. That’s not criminal, and games do things like that all the time.

The article actually does a really good job of explaining the difference between currency and stock.

As I said, “while that’s true of any investment, there are degrees of uncertainty. Bitcoin is far more volatile and arbitrary than a more traditional index fund, and that’s a matter of absolute fact.”

It’s only a “pretty good investment” in retrospect. The fact that you’ve been lucky is evidence only that you’ve been lucky. You might continue to be lucky. But you have no way to predict what will happen to your investment next.

Inhale and exhale a few more times. Maybe grab a paper bag.

Mr. Tusks specifically doesn’t understand why something so simple has eluded Nintendo despite more than a decade of players asking for a better option and good examples from other manufacturers about the right way to go about it.

Your reply is completely irrelevant to the issue at hand.

“But silent characters are, 99 times out of 100, inferior from a story perspective”

Dude, did you watch the video posted above?

I’ll go simpler with this.

There’s nothing wrong with a dissenting opinion, so long as it’s explained, and he offers plenty of support for his argument. I’ve been looking forward to this game, and the review has done nothing to dissuade me (or, for that matter, to upset me).

The article misstates the post at Dorkly.

I just don’t even understand what the frustration is, then.

I always got the impression that the monsters were only included to fend off the anti “walking simulator” nutters. They never really felt integral to the experience, and weren’t implemented very well.

I think his point is pretty clear. You already own the game (twice) and enjoyed it.

This response - a small but positive step - is why it is so important that sites like Kotaku continue to hammer any company that pulls this shit. There should be gobs of negative press, and it should be reflected in reviews. They should be given no quarter.
