@Mattock1987 Toll booth operation is great! If you choose "ma'am" instead of "sir" at the end of "have a nice day" you lose a life. So does giving back the wrong amount of change. There‘s potential to that idea
Still can‘t figure out why anyone would consider buying NFTs. Glorified jpegs that are nothing more than a free wallpaper back in 2006. I can‘t imagine anyone picking out an old USB stick from 20 years ago and telling their kids: "Hey, let‘s look at some old NFTs I bought!" - "Yeah dad, p*ss off, I got my VR-suit ready for me."
One of my earliest gaming memories are from this game. I must have been around five years old and naturally that had a lasting impact on me. Great atmosphere and art style and a very creative game altogether.
Only a few months before the Charizard craze I threw out two shoeboxes full of these Pokémon cards and I‘m pretty sure there were a few Charizards in there. I don‘t care how they will look like because as you might understand, those cards pi** me off, lol.
Crash 4 wasn‘t bad, but they could have easily made two games out of it. For me it was too much content packed into it. Levels are way too long and why do they all need 300 something boxes now? A huge box count was a rare exception in the classic trilogy and I think they should have stuck with that. Sometimes less is more and for this game that‘s like an overall theme.
@Dr_Lugae Yes I know, I was trying to reference a joke about Apple who sold off their bugs as features. (I‘m an Aplle user myself btw, so please don‘t kill me folks)
@iLikeUrAttitude The era of finished games died in 2006 with the ability to provide patches through an online connection. As far as I know the game was perfectly playable in its initial state so what you‘re getting is a free bonus that is added to the game. I see no reason for complaints here.
Magmoor Caverns were my favorite back as a kid, loved the music especially. Phendrana Drifts isn‘t too bad either, but Chozo Ruins? In the beginning yes, but after you "unlock" the Chozo spirits the ruins become the most annoying place in the game.
I hated city in the sky tbh. I got lost too many times. And falling into nowhere because of some annoying enemies isn‘t much fun either.
Other than that TP really had some of the best dungeons in the series which you already named.
I really think voice actors should get more money because it is not as simple as reading lines from a paper and obviously not everyone can do it. But one third more to your initial payment? That is quite an offer. Personally I also think that she didn’t give Bayonetta such a special voice. Sexy woman voice for sure but try replacing Marge Simpson for example.
Very interesting topic and a very interisting article to read on NL. And a worrying future indeed. AI can and will do things that people will eventually accept as a job being done fine. And that‘s where a lot of things will change.
For some reason I had a track from "Rogue Trip: Vacation 2012" in my head yesterday and thought: man how awesome was that game‘s soundtrack? Funny seeing this article today. And uhm, while we’re at it, where is the remaster of said game?

He has a great superman face but I guess so do many others. He and everyone else will move on, nothing too dramatic I‘d say.

Peach is just weird. Too much Illumination for her character.

Where the heck is Germany? Makes no sense to me, since Austrians will be watching the German voice dub.
