Same thing happened with Super Mario Galaxy 2. Initially it was going to be kind of like a director’s cut that just included new levels on top of the original game, and they realized they had enough good stuff to just make a whole new standalone game so they did that instead.

You almost got me there, nice try.

Wish I could get a can of the new coke without having to put 20 dollars down on a bundle on their site. I’m curious to try it just for the novelty, but not for the price of a meal.

I get asked these kinds of questions in a different field of art, and it gets asked to others too. The point is to see if there’s something inspiring you to make what you make. Obsidian could have made a wacky space game about literally any fun concept they could imagine up, and they decided to go down the specific…

Yeah in the long run they ought to be creating more studios from scratch, but when your biggest struggle in THIS generation is not having enough great exclusives, you need to be sure that that solution is solved in THIS generation too. Creating new studios and finding available talent to run them and then giving them…

Mr. Musk is about the most immature 47 year old I’ve ever seen.

When breath of the wild was teased early on (years before we knew it was breath of the wild) with a short cinematic like this, people noticed how androgynous link looked in that footage and asked if the Link in the game was a woman or it was supposed to be ambiguous, and if I remember right Aonuma set the record…

That’s complete bull. He has a pickaxe weapon that is a pencil, for crying out loud

I think you’re forgetting that BOTW was also released on the wii-u (where it originally was gonna be released before delays.) So if anything Nintendo was holding back what they could do on the switch due to needing to make sure it ran on the weakest last-gen console.

People are speculating that she has a much shorter haircut here because she’ll be playable and her short hair won’t clip through equippable armor.

But a “plant” connotes being a paid actor in disguise or something, when these devs are just people who worked hard on a product and are genuinely excited to see it on-stage. Might as well call movie stars at their latest movie premiere that are excited to see the film “plants” too.

Pretty sure parts of the dev teams are in the audience, which I guess you could call plants or just people that are excited about their work.

most of your “plants” are probably the actual development teams in the audience that are excited to see products they’re working on showcased on a big stage.

Dunno why those are so concerning, one is just a character skin and the others are just fun spinoffs. 

FYI Hazlelight’s game is called “A Way Out,” not “No Way Out.” Happy to hear they got a new game coming though!

hopefully this becomes a trend. everybody has a sweet-spot where a game is challenging but still possible to overcome, and often that sweet-spot varies in location from person to person. I love a good challenge in a stealth game but don’t have the reflexes for fast shooters, so I play on hard for one and easy in the…

Wether people bought the collector's edition for the bag or not, it still is fraud for them to not provide the product they advertised to be selling. 

There is just so much wonk in this story. I’m surprised by Beth thinking a canvas bag was a cool product for a collector’s edition, by Beth deciding to market a canvas bag in their collector’s edition before doing research to see if they can afford it, and by Beth thinking people (and the law) would be okay with a…

 have him call the duffer brothers, maybe they can give it a cameo in Season 4 of stranger things, since apparently that’s how you get Coca Cola to revive their old flavors.

Would be nice if the game itself had this kind of mindset. The tutorial for this game is “here’s a video of the barest minimum moves possible, feel free to aso consult a list of 200,000 other advanced techniques too, but you can’t access this list while playing the game to help understand what’s going on.” For a game…
