FINALLY SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS 

And to think, all of this madness could have been avoided by just having a lottery system.

Ultimately, the saddest part about the $GME debacle is that it was never even about GameStop. It could have been literally any stock that happened to get massively shorted by hedge funds losing faith in a company. GameStop just happened to be the company that got caught in the crossfire. That said, I’ve seen GameStop…

Doesn’t matter. Even Vietnam is still encouraging people to wear masks and maintain social distancing. This is reckless no matter where you are. Besides, even without COVID, lottery systems are 100% of the time preferable to whatever the fuck this is, which really only encourages scalping.

Damn, this is exactly how I feel about VI/IX. Though I’m not really sure if I can say that IX “beat out” VI for me, they are extremely different entities, where I think VI is the best FF while IX is the platonic ideal of FF.

I honestly never minded the segmented DLC issue. The DLCs explicitly separate a character off from the rest of the party to flesh them out individually, which I think was honestly sorely needed, as they basically only exist as a group in the main game. My biggest gripe with the game is that it’s all style and no…

Literally there is no reason to not use a lottery system for high-demand console sales. Especially with COVID still being a thing. Requiring people to come in and queue up for something they probably won’t even be able to get should just be flat out illegal in the middle of a fucking pandemic.

Friendly reminder that money isn’t real and that the stock market is an advanced gambling confidence game that is not actually based on anything material.

ok boomer lol

Hi hello that is literally what all investing is.

What a perfect fit. A barely functioning facsimile of a game for a barely functioning facsimile of a car.

“America isn’t ready for it” might actually be the worst excuse I have ever heard. Like, actually. I would legit prefer them to just say they think two dudes banging is icky, because at least that’s honest.

Some people might say that Skyward Sword was bad.

Just in case any of you Gamers(TM) needed any more proof that Microsoft is pure fucking evil.

The main reasons that Mistwalker’s console games underperformed was because they were all either poorly supported by their publishers or put on consoles where they were basically dead on arrival. Both Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey were completely doomed in Japan solely because they were on the Xbox, and frankly, the…

Honestly, if it were up to me, I would just ban all punctuation in texting. Capitalization, too. They all come across as varying degrees of confrontational to me, but that’s probably because I grew up in the AOL/MSN Messenger era where people would just spam stream-of-consciousness word vomit at each other with…

Since you’re the only person who mentioned ASH I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt, but I am also here to inform you that Literally No One played that game, no matter how good it is. Furthermore, it is also trapped on a dead console, just like all their other games, which only further emphasizes my point that they…

I am so tired of seeing people defend Blue Dragon, a mediocre Dragon Quest clone that nobody remembers that was entirely carried by the (incredibly lazy) involvement of Akira Toriyama. It says a lot about Mistwalker’s own confidence in that game that they chose to trap it on the Xbox ecosystem, where it was doomed to…

I played about 5 hours of The Last Story and just could not get into it no matter how hard I tried. I think a big part of that might be the controls/battle system not jiving well with me, but also the fact that it’s the fucking Wii and it might as well have been a PS2 game so everything was so low-fidelity it was…

Well, I could not be further removed from the Xbox ecosystem, and JRPGs that are Xbox exclusives are pretty much inherently dead on arrival, so when I say “trapped on a dead console” I mean “not yet ported to PS4/Switch/PC, where people who actually care about the genre would want to play them”. Catch me never buying…
