@MidnightDragonDX I'm definitely not saying it's happening, but it's not like this is complete nonsense. The same thing happened before the OLED was announced; the Lite video was made private.
@Pigeon Can you come to terms with the fact that some people like the design? What I'm getting from your comment is that he deserves the personal attacks?
@Ryu_Niiyama I think the industry has come a long way from the realistic dreary trend. The low point was definitely during the 360/PS3 era. Every other game was about generic guy with a buzzcut (usually a space marine) and the color palette consisted of green, gray, brown, black.
I feel like games really started to move away from that with the PS4/One era. Games weren't afraid to embrace brighter and more varied colors.
@DeskLaser You really think this game should only be $5? The production costs of making the game surely means the game needs to retail for more than 5 bucks. Lol
@Serpenterror Pizza Hut uses the same ingredients at all the restaurants, so it seems like "they closed the good ones" is irrelevant. Of course, you'll have outliers where the locations suck, but you're using a personal anecdote as a basis for the company as a whole. I usually hear people say the restaurant as a whole has gone downhill, not because a couple of local locations closed down.
@CANOEberry Why would it? It's not like developers are locking content behind a pay wall (well, most of them don't). It's work that they do post launch. Post launch DLC has been a thing for almost two decades. Not sure why you're acting brand new about this. Lol
@ogo79 I expect lots of 0 and 10 reviews, because gamers don't believe in scores between. So hyperbolic.
I don't understand why people are in such a rush to still pre-order games. Not like this game will be out of stock on release. Guess people still haven't learned from pre-ordering based off hype.
@Arawn93 Not sure why it being a mainline game means anything. Why wouldn't this be a game that expands on Legends? You said the idea of an open world in Pokémon started with Sword & Shield wild areas, which then led to the expansion packs, which the Legends devs took inspiration from. Doesn't that mean Scarlet Violet will go a step further?
@UglyCasanova Rereleasing games is a new fad? Have you just started playing video games because remasters and collections have been a thing for decades.
@UglyCasanova First, this won't be 60 bucks. 30 bucks tops. Second, Nintendo isn't publishing, so I'm not sure why you're giving them a middle finger. It's not their choice to put 3rd party games on Nintendo Online.

@Goofus I don't hope they stick with it. I love the fact that Zelda's art style is always changing.

@KiraMoonvalley it's 30 bucks... At least that's what it is for PlayStation and Xbox.
Re: Alan Wake Remastered Has Been Rated For Nintendo Switch
@Wavey84 lots of people loved the game. Not sure how Dead Space and Alan Wake are correlated. Different publisher and dev.
