This. But it’s not just a shame, it’s infuriating. The whole point of Paper Mario was that it was a Mario Story. Instead of going right and murdering all the generic Goombas in your way, you actually went to a Goomba Village and there was a family of Goombas, with unique names, appearances and personalities. The fact…

Except that, except for Mario Party 4 and Smash Bros., none of the Paper-only characters have made appearances outside of Paper Mario games. Furthermore, Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam explicitly revealed that the Paper Mario games exist in an entirely separate universe from the normal Mario universe. 

It’s truly mind-boggling, especially when the “modified” versions of existing Mario enemies are among the things people are most excited for with each new entry in the series.

They may just want to prevent the franchise from getting so bloated that people who miss a few games no longer know who many of the characters are. Its like they want the Mario universe to always be something you recognize, no matter how long you’ve been away from gaming. Not defending, but that may be the reasoning

Maybe I’m not understanding correctly. Does this mean they can’t create characters like Koops or Goombella, because they’re new characters based on existing designs?

Then just stop developing the whole franchise. Paper Mario was so great because we got original characters that were based on species found in the Mario universe and that had therefore their own unique design.

I mean, the US is built on war. It has been at war in one form or another for over 90% of it’s existence. We have only had about 20 total years of peace since 1776.

Speaking as a non-American, it is truly shocking and DEEPLY disturbing how integrated and prevalent military integration is in your society. I say this without any hyperbole, but it’s a breath away from Fascism. 

Another piece of evidence for how important the ACLU is.  Most of us wouldn’t have even thought about the 1st amendment implications here, but they’re pretty clearly correct that this is government sanctioning speech.

That is the least credible theory. Mixer’s demise is proof that these guys can’t keep even the most lavishly funded streaming site afloat. The idea that they were gonna start their own brand new service is just utter fanboy fantasy. 

Doesn’t seem very likely, personally.

Yeah, there’s zero percent chance he doesn’t know exactly why he’s been banned. If he really thought it was unfair he’d be screaming from the hills and filing lawsuits. To use his analogy:

What was interesting about this was just how quickly the story faded into the background once all the abuse allegations in the FGC started flying. When some drama with actual substance started coming to light, the metadrama of a streamer getting banned didn’t seem all that important. Rightfully so, though I’m sure…

Like other people have speculated, the only times that someone like this guy or any other public media personality would clam up about a situation is because they are being told to as part of a legal defense. Counter this situation with any other time a streamer gets banned or has some minor infraction, they go…

“I have no idea why Twitch banned me.”

Third Person Online MoBA Battle Arena with Early Access.

Here’s an idea...

Maybe not EVERYTHING needs to be a hero shooter or battle royale or even multiplayer. We have Overwatch, we have Fortnite, we have Apex Legends, and we have many, many, many, many, many, many, many, too goddamn many others of all kinds of shapes and sizes all competing for the same audience. That…

Crucible is not only a really generic name, it’s literally the name of a game mode in a competing franchise.

... I still have no idea what this game is
