Wow, that's some mighty positive feedback for a project I expected to get very mixed reactions (kinect isn't exactly in-vogue).

Look forward to trying it.

Updates can cost money
if you release your game flawlessly

This comes from a guy who released games that are as buggy as Skyrim at Launch but were barely getting any patches.

Lol wtf. Game updates should be an obligation from devs to fix bugs and add in features that were promised and should've been there day one. This is some EA greed lol. I'll make sure to not buy this game not that I ever was going to.

Swery and bad takes do walk hand in hand. So I'm not particularly surprised by this take, though to be fair it is related to a DLC launch so I'm not sure if he is talking about updates in general or DLC, expansions, etc.

I don't think there's an industry that releases products as broken as the gaming industry, knowingly and willingly. With all that already exists, it wouldn't surprise me if this is attempted eventually. I say it'll be like the online pass phase. Industry is eating itself from the inside.

I really hope he meant dlc, and it was lost in translation. That's about all I have to say.

Yeah That's all we need on top of all the greedy tactics and half assed games

DLC and extra features should be paid for.

Updates and patches to fix issues should never require payment. It is standard to assume the product you paid for is complete and without issues. You owe that to the person who paid the full amount.

I am against overworking and crunching, and the consumer is not asking for that. The business is, so it shouldn't be the consumer that is punished.

In my opinion, his action of hiding fixes and the "true ending" behind paid DLC isn't okay.

Devs have to pay to update their games on the console platforms. Not sure about PC.

After the state Deadly Premonition 2 came out, he better shut the f up

gfy

"Please tell me why we creators, who work overtime every day to make video games,
- You should NOT work overtime. Take the time you need and make games that you can work on and finish during regular working hours or less. Develop smart and work smarter.

"should have to update our games for free."
- If it's broken, then yes. Why do we have to pay for broken products? I mean, can you imagine Ubisawft, EA and Activision games? SHEEEEeeeeeet....Sadly, they would do it too if they could.

"You all pay $10 for a cup of coffee at Starbucks...."
- I don't. I make my own coffee...weird analogy but lets follow it. If you ask for a Caramel Cappuccino and they give you Water with Chocolate, do you think we should have to pay for them to make it right?
...right. Didn't think so.

"Is the world going crazy????"
- It has ALWAYS been crazy. Mayhaps you should stop working overtime and go outside and realized this obvious fact.

Well, depends on the update:

1) the game launched poorly, and owners demand a debugging: NO, you are lucky they bought your game, and nobody else will continue to buy it if it isn’t brought up to par.

2) the game launched great, and can be improved for newer hardware: YES, because the product was already delivered, and now more work is being done to improve it just for the sake of doing so.

Fuck that guy.

LMAO.

No one wants this dudes games or updates. Deadly Premonition is some real dog shit.

Here I am thinking that I should get a partial refund if the game isn’t optimized.

Get fucked

Translation:
“My games don’t make any money”

Note to self, don't buy any games from "Deadly Premonition games"

I mean we already pay for games that are unfinished and have to be patched before playing them. Day one patches are the new normal so I wouldn’t be surprised if updates did become monetized

No no no dude just take your L.

Ok, if you want to play that game then broken games at launch should be free. You like that idea?

paying for patches? fuck that

So they want their games to be torrented even more now. 🤣

Deadly Premonition has one of my all time favorite stories. I purchased it on PS3(when it finally released on that platform), and on Switch(the sequel as well.)
Not only has every game that I have played by them been a mess performance wise, they are all still in that shape. Dude couldn't release a polished game to save his life, never fixes them, and then has the nerve for this level of entitlement. Wild.

Brave words from a studio that put out 1/4 of an episodic game then ghosted the project.

Man, Dark Dreams Don't Die had potential

Director of comically broken games thinks he should get paid more to fix them

Any idiot who pays ten bucks for a cup of coffee and then gripes about money needs to stfu.

depends on the situation. Charging me 9.99 for an update like a DLC thats adds something awesome, then yes. Adding a meh update that really doesn't add much then no. No mans sky is a great example of free updates, but that's because the game started off meh and the dev really proved they cared, the good will they generated was very worth it. Most gamers wont pay extra for an update unless its a special game. Deadly premonition is a cult favorite and most wouldnt pay for an update. Make the game a vr update then hell yes.

He sounds like a fool. Paying for updates is ridiculous.

Then people would start to loose even more trust and buy games less. Dumbass.

Okay but only if platform holders (Sony, Steam, Xbox, Nintendo) prevent your games from being released in the state they've been released since the seventh generation. No game would need updates if they were released finished, which isn't the case anymore.

NO!

Say the guy who can't release working port of PS2 looking games.

Lol this guy must be out of his mind with greed.

absolutely not.
its not our fault that some games have bugs or game crashing ones.

the fuck lol

Hello Games is the best example of a game that makes money with free updates. They keep updating No Man’s Sky, the game gets continual hype, and people keep buying it. ‘Nuff said.

lol. Dude your games needed updates before they came out. If your shit isn’t working correctly OR needs improvement, you sure as F better fix it Suehiro (funny because he knows about updates/fixes snd patches all too well, being a major offender himself.

Another a-hole pushing limited consumer rights. Send a message by blacklisting his half ass/ half thought out, buggy as hell and not very well built wannabe twin peaks games.

Oh wait, I forgot. He’s supposed to be edgy and cool. Swery65 (Means greedy dork) Seriously, a major offender think he’s got anyplace anyplace to talk?
Nice that you are think about your pocket book first chump.

Get wrecked Swery65. That is some asinine shi7 yo.

Yeah...ok.
