Re: Bowser Defends $70 Zelda Pricing, Nintendo Still "Very Bullish" About Switch

If you're against the price hike fine, but I hate this otherness people create about consumers being "stupid" with their money and blindly buying whatever. Maybe ppl took all of your points into consideration and agree to an extent but in the end think "i need something to cheer me up for next few months" or maybe havent bought a game in ages so 10 extra is fine. It doesnt disprove anything about corporate greediness and such but this belittling of consumers is annoying, quit assuming the worst in ppl over something out of their control

Re: Review: Octopath Traveler II - A Confident Follow-Up And One Of Switch's Finest RPGs

@BrazillianCara I wont say the concept is bad but some of the writing felt stifled by cramming itself into that package in Octo 1 and I never felt 'swept away' by any story, maybe Haanits. I actually loved playing it in 2 hr blocks per chapter, but there was no depth to the characters and lots of the melodramatic "gee golly let's not give up hope" dialogue didnt make up for it. Wasnt funny or touching or mysterious or much really. Still put 90 hrs into it and this review gives me hope, though doubt I get it for a while

Re: GoldenEye 007 Shoots Its Way Onto Nintendo Switch Online This Week

@GameOtaku I think it's just a business decision. If they charged less for online but sold retro games separately, then I'd probably buy like 3-4 games tops (either played a million times or not enough interest to purchase). So the amount of money they hose from me with a yearly subscription costs more than that hypothetical. Perhaps Ninty wasnt making a killing selling retro titles individually, and decided to roll it in with the online service (at a higher price) for suckers like me who found a happy medium between price, online and rental of titles I'll rarely touch. Maybe wasnt worth it to them to give consumers more options

Tldr who knows what they're thinking, especially in regards to non online gamers

@victordamazio from the bowels of the internet (stumbling through google). Its like showing professional sports/movie in venue. Seems a grey area since theres no declaration:

Video games are treated differently, though, primarily because they exist on a screen rather than a board. "A video game under copyright law is an audiovisual work, which gives a public performance right to the copyright holder," Dallas attorney and Law of the Game blog author Mark Methenitis explained in an interview with Ars. "Under the public performance right, the copyright holder is allowed to say when, where, or whether something is publicly performed, meaning displayed in front of a group of people larger than, say, at your house."
