The problem is it promised one thing and delivered another. The promise was a stylized 2d megaman style game with gorgeous artwork and new ideas from the creator of megaman. Instead we got a fairly ugly 3d megaman clone without any unique ideas. 

Straight from the Other Mr. Roberts book.

If you do it right, your fans will flock to your defense on the internet, claiming that the game is totally playable, since all they really wanted was an incomplete beta. 

Poor, naive Mr. Roberts... Cancel the Kickstarter? Non, non cher monsieur. You complete the kickstarter, then move the pledge system to a private platform. Make roadmaps which show playable monster parts and expanded in-gut universes, “procedurally generated, yet hand-crafted”. Sell Meat Armors and Skinwagons (that…

So this guy tried for A WEEK, and then gave up? That’s it?

My guess is either the KS cash didn’t rack up as fast as he hoped, or he realized turning this into a viable game worth playing was going to take more money, time, and effort than he was willing to invest.

Oh well. At least he prevented another Mighty No.9…

Sorry, but 100% of the streaming and review footage I’ve seen feature drops into sub-20 FPS. Which is a problem when the game already has PS2-level textures in spots.

I dunno, considering their game of the season runs like absolute dogshit on native hardware and has a 60fps patch on emulation, it might be worth mentioning again.

That’s a self defeating comment.

The answer is it’s none of your business.

You’re probably shouldn’t click and comment then, cause you’re adding to the traffic that tells Kotaku “Yes, more Amouranth”.

Good for her, happy she is in a better place in her life.

Quartet looks like an incredibly faithful classic-style JRPG, but with a new twist on its turn-based battle system. Indeed, there are eight characters in that thumbnail above, but you battle with four at a time, able to tag characters in and out as appropriate.

Why am I not surprised at the flood of anti-Smogon crying in this comment section?

Every time, I swear, the same wave of “those people do not play the game like I think they should, booooo!” It’s as bad as competitive vs. noncompetitive Smash players.

Emma Thompson’s character was definitely not shitty, and the emotion she was feeling over the movie infidelity was real. She’s talked about how she relived what she felt when Branagh cheated on her with Helena Bonham Carter. Frankly that storyline was the only believable one in the movie, which I’m sure has everything…

We watch it every year.

Is it possible that I’m the first to note that the “Cantwell Class” star destroyer design is an almost direct interpretation of one of the earliest Star Wars (aka New Hope) designs, created by Colin Cantwell, who just passed away fairly recently?

I think we did find out some new information, namely that Leida has an affinity for Chandrilan tradition, which can only make Mon Mothma’s dilemma that much crueler.

The stash isn’t in full view of anyone. Go to episode 7 and scrub to about 11:00 to see him put it away. It’s hidden in a recessed area of the showerhead assembly, above line of sight even if you could see the box. And if you think the cleaning staff would have found it, you’ve never stayed in a hotel. They’re not…

Nitpick #2:  Those aren’t the “hard-working fisher aliens” sleeping in Cassian’s old hotel room, they are just random alien guests of the same hotel.  Different species entirely.  And why would Cassian need to tip toe through the room and sneakily retrieve his box if the room was occupied by his friends/liberators?  

Of course the Mothma scene imparts new information. It tells us that Leida is weirdly embracing her creepy-ass Chandrilian conservative roots and might not actually MIND being packaged off to another guy. Which does little to quell Mon’s anguish over it, since she knows how shitty those arrangements turn out to be.
