It's about how gaming appears in the eyes of mainstream media, so, yes, of course this is a big deal.

Nope, they're completely chronological when it comes to Phoenix's arc. Every main game takes his story forward, while the spinoffs go a bit back, and there's the occasional flashback cases within the individual games.

Shu Takumi (series creator, sole writer of AA123 and Ghost Trick) wanted to stop before it became a quote/unquote "Shadow of its former glory", more specifically when talking about Phoenix, but Capcom wanted more, and they proposed Takumi to write more Ace Attorney, so he's done all he could to avoid using Phoenix Wright (except he was forced to use him in some way in Apollo Justice) and because Ghost Trick bombed financially, he's no longer allowed to make original stuff, b...

Some day developers will learn to put confidence in saying less is more.

Bigger is not always better.

It certainly isn't the most polished game I've ever played, but calling it broken and buggy is such an overstatement. If you wanna talk about a broken AAA RPG of this caliber look at DA:I first.

A strategic nice gesture, but nonetheless one that reinforces a sense of community. Nothing wrong with that.

I'm pretty sure as long as it's a legalized sale like that, the money is shared with CDPR as part of NVIDIA's deal.

I much prefer Mass Effect, but Red Dead has the better story. Mass Effect is a power fantasy with the player character in the front seat at all times, and escapism whereas Red Dead is a historical examination and a very human story.

Wow, a simple response to a tweet I made to Chris Wynn is apparently newsworthy even though all he said was "It will be like what you expect from Mass Effect".

I mean, it's not like he gave anything but a mere promise. There's nothing to see here, just because Shinobi thought it was worth making a thread for on NeoGAF.

Take the on-disc Day 1 DLC for ME3 for example. Same story, people moaned and complained that it had been taken out of the game and an executive explained it was because it had been in development while the main game was in certification.

It was also revealed that the DLC featured stuff that was originally supposed to be in the game but because of time constraints would've been cut had it not come out as a DLC.

But I say, delay the friggin game then, and ...

If it was an update I'd be happy because it actually gives my money's worth from when I bought the game back in 2014, but it's not. It's a paid expansion that almost is presented as if it's an entirely new game and they're promoting the "buy Destiny with this, 100 bucks" or however much it is, to death.

Destiny is a fraud. It's got amazing weight and feel and polished mechanics, a fine competetive component and fun with friends... but the...

Yeah. This spanish developer isn't super talented. All their Castlevania games lacked identity and focus.

Probably, they wanted to put it in but decided to release the game (after 3 delays mind you) and then put it in there as part of their free DLC campaign. Pretty smart, all things considered. The game felt appropriately polished for an RPG at launched and they've done wonders in just 2 months to patch it up and expand upon it, and we're even getting an extended romance arc for Triss via patch and 2 entire expansion DLCs over the next year or so.

All I got from this was that this dude is about to give up on gaming and his reasons are all things I'm aware of but I've taken them for granted for so long, that I don't even see the problem. I also think he sounds naive, going on about how the expansions for Witcher 3 are "expansions and not DLC". Look at Destiny, it has DLCs labeled as "expansions" too, but that didn't mean they were expansions like Diablo 2 or World of Warcraft, and honestly I don't...

Like ME3, Witcher 3 had a different lead writer. He did characters well, but not so much the plot.

Oh, so this explains why the PS3 Ratchet & Clanks weren't near as funny in their writing. I understand why the sleeping gas lines went into so much questioning.

EDIT: I took the word of a poster above and I sort of took things out of context.

Dumb list, but not because I think the subject is dumb.

They don't include Bayonetta because she's human in the "conventional sense" but they include Catherine. Logic.
