Yay, you win! I wish I could keep up pointless arguments over months, like you do!

You’re right about everything. I concede totally to your righteousness.

Granted, Nintendo has made a point of artificially limiting supply of anything interesting ever since the Wii was a thing. Case in point, most special editions and amiibos, etc.

Is this game multiplayer at all?

I can’t help but point out the severe lack of *any* Blizzard expansions.

They’re basically the gold standard of what we expect from expansions.

If I’m reading this right, can I just “buy” this full game for $32?

“A decade as a PHP Developer and Java Dev.”

Then I feel like you should know the value and difficulty of just completely throwing old code away, disconnecting from it as much as you can.

Besides “too hard” is always a relative term based on time and money someone wants to allocate to a problem. Its easily a problem to…

“It wouldn’t be hard” “All they would need to do”,
is generally used by people who don’t actually work with code. Please note that very few people would actually use this service, and fewer still would purchase another game because of this service.
Nintendo, not being a charity, would have no reason to go about this in…

The framework you’re referring to is establishing default values over obsolete aspects of those Pokemon.

Technically, no, but the way that some of the hidden values worked was completely different in RBY/GSC, i.e. The way that Pokemon stats were generated linked gender with hidden stats and shininess followed an obscure formula. [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Individua…]

Probably not. The way that pokemon data was stored got completely overhauled with the Ruby/Sapphire Generation.

Its foolish to deny that some aspects of this game were inspired by DotA-like skills/spells.

Leading Koreans on both sides believe that their nation is representative of all Korea.

Especially in the context of a cultural icon that predates both countries, its more appropriate to say “Korean”

Otherwise, I agree with your statement~

If any of y’all are in Colorado, thinking of selling my Wii U setup, w/ Mario Maker. [Just not enough time to be a PC gamer and Wii U gamer =\]

Actually, FWIW, I think Spec Ops: The Line is worth mentioning here.

Its the first game in a while that took a good hard look at gaming as a medium.

It took a critical perspective of a player’s role in a game and touched into themes like escapism, etc. I bring this up because it had almost never been done before, but…

I’m not sure how it overlaps with League of Legends, but as a tip, if you watch the minimap about 30% of the time, you’ll become omniscient. :P

Second this - After years of Dota 1, in a period where I was disenchanted with Heroes of Newerth, I played League throughout the beta [The intermediate level skillsets overlap a LOT.] and I just can’t respect Riot as a company, so I switched to Dota 2 completely and never looked back

That’s actually *exactly* the situation when unions are most effective. Its not a matter of replacing programmers, its a matter of replacing your entire coding team. Its why relatively unskilled jobs and extremely competitive jobs often unionize [See grocery store workers and the NFLPA] - because its unwieldy for any…

You realize that the salaries were determined BEFORE the future payments were allotted for, right?

So its just the accounting practice rather than any exceeding of the cap that was questionable, and not against any rule, whether explicit or implied.

If you want a better comparison, look into how the Broncos dealt with…

That goes about what the punishment was, but why don’t you tell me in your words exactly what the Broncos were being punished for. Other than some vague spouting about “salary cap” nonsense.

I’m a Broncos fan, and I’ll damn my team every time it cheats, but I’m not gonna take shit from the lazy or the stupid.

Do you actually know what happened there or are you just trying to change the subject out of hope?
