I’m impressed that they managed to stay out of Nintendo’s radar for over a year.

Timely.

Like Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness? Yeah, everyone loved that, metacritic 134 out of 100. So ignoring stuff they’ve just published, which mostly has been excellent (DX:MD, Hitman, I Am Setsuna, Nier: Automata (I hope)), what has Square Enix itself made recently that’s been great?

Eh, Squeenix is like Konami at this point - you just have to assume that any given title is going to be shit until proven otherwise. So you can’t get excited about this at all, especially when they don’t tell you the platform. Even the shittiest Chinese poison mobile F2P RPGs have purty concept art, it means nothing…

Its so hilarious how MS locked up exclusive Square Enix RPG’s trying to make all the right moves to make an impact in Japan. The second that ink dried, Square Enix forgot how to make GREAT games.

This is idiotic. They might as well write legislature which stops any group of people larger than a certain size which has congregated for any reason. Passing legislature targeted at augmented game companies is a money grab because they think that they can squeeze publishers for a couple bucks. I think they’ll learn…

The primary reason a lot of these organizations and such are pissy isn’t that people are visiting it for the wrong reasons but that they are having to cope with a large amount of traffic leaving behind trash and damaging things.

In Fond du Lac, where I live (about an hour’s drive north of Milwaukee) there is a large park that has a ton of pokestops and many gyms. Obviously the bigger city is going to get more foot traffic but the real difference is that instead of just whining about people using the parks (dear god, no!) our city stepped up…

Genuine Question Time:

This kind of pisses me off. Especially in the case of Milwaukee, who only had such a problem with Pokémon Go in parks because they don’t spend any money at all on staff or indeed much of anything for their parks. Like, sure, okay the city that hosts massive parties in a huge waterfront park for the ENTIRE fucking…

I would probably still play some if there were any stops within walking distance. There’s only one place nearby with a notable density of stops and it’s on the university’s campus so I seldom have reason to go out there. That’s pretty much what killed my desire to play.

Seems like the wrong aprooch here. If people are showing up some place in mass, then post some cops and inforce those littering and vandalism fines. Make enough money to pay the cops and give the park a make over!

Yes, it’s still very popular, though of course nowhere near as popular as the initial release. And most places are happy to accommodate players. Obviously people who litter are assholes. But this idea that “you can only visit our park/establishment for the RIGHT reasons!” is absurd.

for Milwaukee. I see it as double dipping. Parks are for the public and paid for by the public. Adding a fee will only bring a chilling effect for the next developer who doesn’t have the cash or the legal means to discover these new laws. So if and when they do discover the ordinance. its just easier to black list the…

Cops over here in Bristol (close to Philly), shut it down fast last year. I was in the park around 8 PM (it closes at 11) with a lot of other players (this was around release), and the cops showed up and told everyone to disperse. They even used the cruiser mounted floodlights and mic to scour the woods for…

Hey, looks like you’re littering too fast from the comfort of your toilet!

I wasn’t making some big point about gender theory when I was a little boy with an easy bake oven. I just wanted to make mini donuts and it was the toy aisle that told me there was something wrong with it. So yeah I don’t think I’m over analyzing when I say it was bullshit, can’t a little boy make some fucking donuts…

Putting brands or genres of toys together is fine. Vehicles together. Dolls together. Board games together. You can put an individual toy into a general genre like that and it makes sense. But when you sort those genres by gender or even split them up by gender, it’s very arbitrary and judgmental. It’s like moving…

People want a better quality of life but people who will lose money because of a venture to improve said quality of life will do everything in their power to sabotage innovation. And because they’re the ones with all the money, the innovators can’t come in and improve people’s lives leading to not only a virtual…

I’m guessing that it might be prudent to check ebay for sales of the rarest games in the batch, especially sellers who juuuust happen to originate from Jersey City. And/or pawn shops. The least-evil thing that could have possibly happened was that the package got destroyed by a leaky bleach shipment, but the most-evil…
