How does Aspyr keep getting the rights to work on these Star Wars games they clearly don’t have the ability to properly complete and ship?

I think everyone sucks here. Players are being whiny, devs shouldn’t speak to customers that way if they want to be professional. People act like games are their life and their life is ruined if a gun is less powerful, probably only temporarily until they do another balance update.

Honestly, I’m pretty pumped about the re-balancing, it’s nice to be able to play with more than just the one set of gear again.

100% agree. The way Gamers give, uh, “feedback” can read a little hostile sometimes and I can see how a human dev on the receiving end of it might react in a human way. Not to say it’s okay, but I’m inclined to forgive a one-time incident. The community reaction to that patch has been completely insane and out of…

Is because when you go to a bank to ask for money. If you show then “Howards Legacy “ money they will say “Good, you made money for this game, but the next can flop”.   But if you show them “Suicide Squad makes XXX money/monly” they get the calculator and find... “humm... is not much money, but If we give you money,…

It’s no longer about giving us quality games. It’s about turning console games into app games with in game purchases. Look, I’m not a competitive gamer. I don’t play Fortnite, Apex and COD players to prove I’m the best player. At that point it becomes a sport. I hate sports! I like to go on single player action/adventu…

Let me introduce you to Barbie and He-Man toys from the 80s...

That’s definitely part of it yeah. I think a lot of game studios would be fine if executives spent less time meddling and trying to get them to chase the latest big money maker and let the team of passionate creative people come up with a game that they are really excited about and let them develop it.

ARROW MUST ALWAYS GO UP! ANY DOWNTURN IS FAIL!

100%. I work for a fortune 500, and it is the same cycle every time. Our economy is dependent on the myth of unlimited growth. When you lay off all of these people, it frees up reporting cash for shareholders to see. Which means when they actually do have growth, they will need to re-hire anyways and have massive…

Instead of forming an opinion based on two photos, I think I'll WAIT 24 HOURS and base my opinion on the trailer

I don’t expect it to be good, but the stills look fine to me. Going to hold off my judgment for now. (still say they should have based it on Tales, though. Best story ever told in that universe)

Pretty much. The images look fine to me and I think this is perfectly capable of being a fun movie, much like Jumanji.

Yeah, I get the sense the author’s view has more to do with his preexisting beliefs about the movie, more than anything he actually gathered from the photos.  The movie was extensively reshot, has been in development forever, and is based on a game series that is past its prime, so there are lots of reasons to expect…

I dunno Zack, kinda feels like you’ve lost track of what joy is in general. Like, this is the kind of overreaction Kotaku used to mock back in its heyday.

Came to say exactly this - its two stills. As long as they aren’t just awful, which they aren’t (to me at least), then I am ready to see more whenever that comes. Not sure what one could have been expecting from a couple screenshots.

I also consider myself to be a Borderlands fan. These photos look about like what I was expecting. It’s not clear from the article why they disappointed you. The vibe of the solo shot is “Lilith has an attitude,” which we all knew. And the vibe of the group shot is, “There’s something in that hole.” They’re not the…

I’m getting that way with Crafting Mechanics in general. Final Fantasy 16 was a big offender for me of “why the heck can’t this just be me buying/finding a better sword?”

Bloggers?? Are we in 2012??

They’ve literally blamed everyone but their own management and direction team
