Re: The Yooka-Laylee Rap Tries to be the Best and Worst Thing All at Once

Kizashi

Gotta leave that here because some people are badmouthing in such an overwhelmy way that it's making me sick.

Before the announcement of the switch move, everybody agreed that Yooka-Laylee looked fabulous. To this day the press is still on that line, speaking of YL as a true Rare revival. It's a kickstarter success for sure.
Then the port was announced and some people are calling playtonic "scamtonic" ? Let me tell you something. I bought the Wii U one year after it got released because I was hyped about Pikmin 3. There were some good games and so on, but it's a fact that the Wii U has been a major failure. The last games to be released on Wii U came out in march, this console is clearly dead and nobody is gonna buy anymore of it.
As of today, there must be so few people willing to buy the Wii U that releasing Yooka-Laylee on it could even be at loss. It's clearly not for Playtonic's profit to do so. I know it's hard to think from that point of view because it can seem disgusting, but it's not a good idea to release a game on Wii U as of today (not to mention than the kickstarter is dated of 2014, which was an era of hope for the Wii U).
Besides, most of the backers were die-hard Nintendo fans that certainly moved or will move on Switch. Playtonic offered to change the platform you wanted to play Yooka-Laylee on and if you don't have a Switch I'm pretty sure you still have a PC.
So basically, for most backers the only thing you'll lose will be to not be able to play YL on the gamepad, but instead on your PC or on the Switch.
Playtonic didn't scam anyone, they made the right choice to move onto what will give them the most success and sales. And sales are important if you want to continue making games, and making even better games. Do you liked 3D oldschool platformers ? Playtonic is pretty much the only one to do it if you don't count Nintendo. Yooka-Laylee looks great and promising, so you should certainly support them if you want more games like this.
And finally, about that JonTron stuff. I get that some people love that Youtuber, but honestly, his absence doesn't suddenly make of Yooka-Laylee a crappy game. Seriously, he only dubbed one character of the game. How could it be more ridiculous to judge Yooka-Laylee on one voice acting ?? The quality's still here.
So please, stop talking about that stupid mess. JonTron said things that were not compatible with Yooka-Laylee's image, which is to be a game for all audiences.

PS : Sorry for the messy answer, but i'm really getting sick at people going nuts for details.

Re: NVIDIA CEO Talks Up 'Incredible' Nintendo Switch

Kizashi

Yeah, ofc they participated so they have reasons to get excited.
But let's not get all hookep up on that point. It's no use to just bash Nvidia or Nintendo.

Anyways, this raises my interest. I can't wait to get this NS in my hands to try all of that out !

Re: Review: Hurry Up! Bird Hunter (Wii U eShop)

@SLIGEACH_EIRE Yeah, there's a difference between what we allow ourselves in video games and in real life. Still, i'm not very fond of games that vehiculate it just as pure fun. I've never been really fond of games where the only purpose is to kill people either... It feels weird to me.

Luckily enough that game sucks apparently.
