What, seriously? Do you ACTUALLY think that Nintendo is the only company in the video game industry who cares about video games and the people who play them? (I mean, that statement is itself quite debatable, but I’m not getting into that here.) Just because Nintendo does one thing relatively well, you you think that…

Would it be a remake or just a completion?

Imagine how many there’d be if they had actually made the second half of the game instead of making you sit through a slide show telling you what you’d have done if they had gotten around to it.

heh.  Small world.  I’m a Flash animator at a studio that loves doing classical animation.  

They’re rebooting Pirates of the Caribbean.   Let that fester in your soul for a while.  

While I agree they should have done more initially, I can see their trepidation. It is stupid amounts of easy to fake screenshots like this, even with shitty tools like MS Paint. I’ve seen people do such things for really petty reasons too.

The article is mostly positive, noting what’s broken, but also noting that they are enjoying it. Should people not be aware of what they can and cannot expect from a game? If someone is wanting to lay down their money, should they not have some sense of what it is that they are getting, especially since it’s been over…

Lol MMO. 24 max players is not an MMO. Don’t liken this akin to the unknown environment of mid 2000s MMO development, where nobody knew anything. What an intellectually dishonest comparison.

How does the fact that he’s white have anything to do with this story? You say it like it’s an obvious fact that because he’s white, he’s a smug asshole. Do you not see how sexist/racist that is? If he was any other color besides white I guarantee you wouldn’t have mentioned the color of his skin, but because he…

Young arrogance is both gender and race blind. Don’t try to make it a white thing.

Why is race any part of this at all?

Yea...kinda went off the rails there. Ego is Ego and its not exactly a thing driven by your tint on the outside (nor sex, nor etc. etc.).

The real problem is a lot of the wrong people are full of it for the wrong reasons.

“...ego (& implicit white dude self-satisfaction) ” - stopped reading there. Your additional descriptor is literally just redefining ego in a heavily racial way. Its astounding how you, and so many others, feel the need to add race into aspects/characteristics that are universal to all people. Get your head out of…

Right but they didn’t even stick to the spirit of the franchise (as it existed til that point). They weren’t gory, suspenseful horror movies, they were scifi action movies. A great movie could have been made if they had stuck to making it claustrophobic, eerie, mysterious, desperate.  Instead of was about an…

So you are bitching because you had to pay an additional $80 over the course of a year to play a game that has amazing replay value but you are ok buying 4 or 5 others games during that time frame that once you beat you never play again? Get out of here. Must suck to be broke. This company is spending tens of millions…

Yeah...no-one would be stupid enough to think that would pay off... ... ...

“$3 for a day, $4 for a month”

This is the exact attitude they’re relying on, where people just toss up their hands, say “It could be worse!” and accept the status quo of a $7 Nuka Cola box reskin, as though it isn’t virtually equivalent to the “Horse Armor” that got everyone up in arms years ago.

Yeah, that pricing is absolutely silly. Like, those little reskinned items should cost $1 max, if that. This is the big problem I have with microtransactions: they usually make it very clear, via the pricing, that the stuff in question is meant to be bought by sucker-ass “whales.” People will talk about how it costs…

That kind of Intermediary currency pisses me off, and makes almost anything that uses it an instant pass for purchases. They did the same exact thing with their payed mods in the creation club. The smallest amount of money you can buy there is 750 bullshit points for $8.00. This already muddies the waters on what a…
