But in an e-mail, he noted that this interpretation could be reductive. Genre and gaming motivation don’t explain gender breakdown with complete accuracy. 

This is really important, to remember that when we’re talking about genders in aggregate none of the information actually applies to the individual. This is

If the design change means breaking away from grim-dark/dull-tones, then yes please.

Also, the completion/fantasy vs. competitive/destruction emphasis is interesting. Hopefully than means more wide worlds with creative exploration as an emphasis and less mindless hacking and blasting.

Holy shit Mei finally gets an awesome event skin! Now THIS Mei skin is worthy of being Legendary tier.

Because I don’t have an interest in playing RE7 and want it spoiled?

Since it was going to be a Microsoft exclusive and they were funding the project (I think they were?), I’m assuming then that they also owned the project/rights? I’m just speculating here, but it could be entirely possible that Kamiya would like to say more but is her held back legally, or is just too apprehensive

But that is only because our understanding of biology, machines, AI are very much human and we are only able to think in concepts that we already know. That’s why every alien life form ever put to cinema, games or books is always somewhat “earthly” or at least governed by human logic.

Dude that 200k was given by hundreds of people. Not one person. Your making the assumption that they asked for 200k or one single person decided to give them 200k. They just HAPPENED to get 200k as a result of multiple backers but didn’t ask for that much money. Just because they got more money than they asked for

That dated feel is what they were going for though. It obviously takes inspiration from Earthbound and people still love that style of gameplay. Sure you don’t agree with the 200k it got but then, it doesn’t seem like they were trying to appeal to someone like you. I, for example, felt happy seeing their refreshing

Sure, not anymore. Nintendo saw to that issuing a baseless (as there was no infringement) CND letter against a simple mod, so now it’s been clandestinely released and can be had not only as an IPS, but also as a pre-patched ROM file. Point being, Nintendo turned it into a problem when it wouldn’t have been otherwise.

Inaccurate. It was developed (and slated to be released) as an IPS delta patch for the game, not as a fully working game ROM. It is absolutely not a piracy case (nor is it an IP case, btw). Not any more than the shirtless Lara Croft patches were back in the day. It’s a modification for a game that you have to already

The two issues dovetail, I’d say. Video games, as a culture, are bad about preserving their history and the context of certain moments of time. Fan games are a part of that context that I think should be encouraged.
