Lol they say every few years "It's time to take 3D sonic seriously". I think they just need to admit that they suck with their own creation and don't know how to make a good 3D sonic game.
I'd never notice something like compressed audio in a game like that anyway. And yes I forgot they'd improved the frame rate quite a lot for areas like Blighttown, so it's actually the far superior version.
Dark Souls is probably my favourite of the ports, because of how it's an almost perfect copy of the original console game. Nothing was downgraded as far as I'm aware.
This is just too many different things. I won't end up paying attention to any, and will just wait for big announcements to work their way into the news cycle. E3 clearly had its benefits of centralizing everything.
Well release date isn't a lore question though, so that's a non-sequitur. And the fact that Skyward Sword is the first game CAN be inferred from the story. It's just that it needed to be confirmed by Nintendo independently.
The final question is the only one I didn't know. Apparently his last name is only used once, and not in any of the actual games. Lol. By my standards, that doesn't count.
Don't avoid it based on just the ending. I really hated the ending but that's a huge mistake. The first 2 games are both self-contained stories in their own right. And even the third game is brilliant for the first 90% of it.
Sure. I agree. But the controversy here was due to activists on resetera getting offended at some developer's opinions on transgenderism, that were expressed in private. The developers didn't do anything to anyone. They simply expressed an opinion in private.
The problem is the claim that you don't want to be "persecuted or harassed", very quickly morphs into "I have a right to control everyone's opinions". Those are 2 very different positions.
It's why it's important to distinguish between words and actions. Did someone actually do something to hurt you? Or did they just speak words, that you're free to ignore.
There are no "horrible comments" in the game or any "disgruntled employees".
There's a single joke in the game where a bottle of soap says "Ogay" on it (as a pun on Olay). That's literally all there is. It's completely trivial nonsense.
A group of activists/maniacs on Resetera simply learned that some of the devs had opinions they disliked, so they deliberately tried to turn it into a scandal in order to ruin the game and the developer's reputations. The audience overwhemingly sided with the developer and told them not to remove anything, which they mostly didn't.
Excellent feature. I remember with the Final Fantasy X remaster how I liked about 50% of the old tracks and 50% of the new tracks. On the Vita version it never gave you the option to switch between, which was really dumb.
The Guardian and Independent are pretty extreme on the liberal spectrum (social values). But moderate on economics (left). People just confuse economics with social issues. They're largely independent of one another.
Only 9 million PS4s in Japan. Those are fairly good numbers. They're slightly higher than FFXV. And you have to assume the digital numbers will be significantly higher due to the virus.
It didn't make you play the whole game again. It made you replay the final chapter 4 times over, because they get caught in a kind of groundhog day timeloop scenario. You just assume that it won't actually make you fight a whole series of bosses 4 times over, but then that's exactly what it makes you do. I just gave up and watched the ending on youtube instead.
Should've apologised for the last quarter of Bravely Default instead. That was a great game until they made us do the same events 4 times over, or whatever it was.

Re: Poll: Should Nintendo Release A Digital-Only Switch?
Given that Nintendo almost never reduce the prices of their core first party games, this would pretty much stop me buying Nintendo consoles entirely.
Re: Ninjala Will Offer A Single-Player Story Mode, But You'll Have To Pay For It
Well that's pretty good then really. I'm guessing it won't be as big as the Splatoon story mode, but I'll probably get it for that price.

I generally like Pewdiepie, but he really needs to upgrade his sense of humour past the stage of a 14 year old.

Re: The Original Voice Cast Returns To Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition
Are you sure this is true? The voice actor for Dunban had made it sound like he hadn't worked on anything like this for years.
The comment to Rogers base might just have been referring to the fact that the original voice acting is still the same?
