We're not talking about marketing, you can market the exact same game to different demographics. You example game not being developed specifically for "teen boys. with woodies".
For example, this "half-naked girl volleyball" game you hate so much can be marketed towards:
- Young people;
- Older people;
- Girls;
- Sport game fans;
- Volleyball fans.
Why you have to focus on a certain group? Just make good games, that's all that matter.
I'm more than sure, that Metal Gear Solid, Half-Life, Diablo, Resident Evil and a whole bunch of other good games were enjoyed by all spectrum of games, no matter your skin color, sexual preferences or religious beliefs.
And most of them probably didn't even bought the damn game (and not planning to)

Your analogy is completely wrong. Your side job is just your job. It would be same analogy IF team worked extra hard and released the game EARLIER and with EXTRA features. But that's clearly not the case (because clan support is already missing on release).
This is the correct example:
1. You're part of development team, working on a project. Client(s) buy your project and you and your team keep working on it, fixing bugs, improvi...
Not sure yet, sorry.
My personal guess, only differences are price and (maybe) that Gold will include a single code for all DLCs, while with Deluxe, you have to manually "purchase" free DLCs.
Resident Evil VII will have a Gold Edition, with all the DLC

"Coming December 12th, 2017."
I think it's safe to assume that Zoe and Not a Hero will be released on December 12th too.
No offence, but this explains nothing.
WB didn't explain WHO will be profiting from those 6 states/other countries (because judging from the original video, all purchases from AL, HI, IL, MA, MS, SC or non-US/D.C. will not be donated to the cause). Money will not just vanish, right?

So you're saying that people should just lay down, spread their butt cheeks and try to enjoy the process? Cool advice!
I'm sorry, but are you really that stupid or what? Entitled how? Do you even know the meaning of that word?
Microtransactions got nothing to do with the price of the game. Horizon Zero Dawn got 0 microtransactions in it, yet still cost $60. Following your logic, it should've costed $30 or even less than that, because no microtransactions meaning game development was cheap and developer/publisher don't want their money back.
Microtransactions are just another way ...
Hope they will fix the framerate issues and make it 60 FPS, that was my main problem with the game
IMO, it doesn't need a sequel, Square Enix already released a ton of FFXV-related content: the game, the movie, the 2D pixel "A King's Tale" game, now mobile version of the main game, multiplayer, DLCs, "A New Empire" mobile game, anime, that "King's Knight" game, VR support (in game and some "Monster of the Deep")...
It's not like i'm waiting for it. If they release it, i'll probably buy it. If i get FFIX itch, as you said, i can buy it any time. But it's really low priority to me.
I'm willing to buy remaster for trophies mostly.
Oh, i 'member. Spent God knows how many hours playing it (same with VIII). Up until Disc 3, which had huge "scar" on it and hence, unreadable. I guess i will never know how that story ended, unless Square will not "remaster" it.
Knack is back, baybee!
"Perfect microtransactions", ha, great sarca... Wait, what? He's serious?!
The Triforce!
Why publisher always have to turn any possibly great game into shit? Online only "features" and microtransactions, i mean.
And i'm sorry, but where did they see online will be required for Market ONLY? On screenshot they attached, it clearly says "And anything thta's an online feature will require online.". They can add a whole bunch of online features before the game release, hell, they can even make whole economy "an online feature". ...
Hey, if this will be a good game, i will definitely try it out!
But when developer firstly says that their game is for certain group, for me it's a big red flag, because that means they're have nothing to say about gameplay, plot, graphics and so on, which is much more important aspects of the game, IMO.
