It happened with ALL online games launch. ALL OF THEM. If there is angry/surprised players they are retarded.

Seems like you’re overreacting. Remedy is trying something new, and this is a solution to a problem they encountered. Why’re you turning it into a completely separate DRM issue?

Nintendo doesn’t need to explain themselves to these people. It’s not their responsibility that a very small group of their fans are angry about basically nothing. I’m willing to bet that they’re not even aware of this supposed backlash. And why would they be? As the article states, Fire Emblem Fates is selling…

It’s not Fire Emblem without Permadeath. I’m sorry it just isn’t.

Stop buying games at launch.

I miss the whole 3d platformer with world level genre, it kinda died with the Simpsons game that was pretty good.

Agreed. I mean wtf why is this even an article or a thing being talked about? No sarcasm, I mean legit, wtf is this? Why is this even a topic point, its a digital persons bikini that is too revealing for her quoted age in a country that greatly frowns upon that. They’re trying to sell units here, not fight the man.

I feel the same way. Nobody in the west wants to see a 13 year in old in a bikini, except people that make us very very concerned. I really don’t even understand it from an eastern perspective, to be honest, but that is the definition of cultural differences.

Even though the initial cost of a computer is higher than a console, yearly membership fees, controllers and per game costs tend to even out things in the long run.

They’re stage/pen names, and it’s not just the women who have them. They seem to mostly be derived from usernames they’ve used in whatever community they originally established themselves in, like DeviantArt, and they’re no different than most other Internet-famous personalities: PewDiePie, Maddox, D-Piddy, etc.

“I can already see the scene,” he said, chuckling. “Elena says, ‘Where do we go now, Drake?’ And he’s like, ‘THE MOON.’ And then Sully’s in the background saying, ‘You’re goddamned right we’re going to the moon, kid.’”

Yeah, a lot of people seem to be missing the point that it’s possible to feel two conflicting things about something like this. One can want more diverse people working on games (as voice actors, artists, programmers, game designers, writers, whatever) and also be a fan of Laura Bailey in this or any role. Both are…

Oh, so you want us to just emulate our old games on PC like we have been? Gotcha.

(Horror) ALIEN Isolation voted for action game.

So basically; “it’s not worth the miniscule profit and headaches from whiners”

The money is the deciding factor here. If it was guaranteed to make a lot of money in the west you can be bloody sure they’d release it and ignore the complaints of the sex negative prudes.

As it is, it’s just a way to score brownie points…

Just think of it as a nightclub or sporting event where it’s cheaper to book in advance than on the door, if it helps

Monster Hunter being locked into the 3DS is a huge system seller for me. That game was the reason I upgraded from the original 3DS to the New XL; and I’m happy to say there are no regrets.

I’m so glad, for so many reasons, that social media was in like MySpace infancy when I was in high school.
