1:10 is all you need to see from this game tbh

@BrintaPap How is it scary if he got assaulted by 4 grown men 🤔

@Zeldafan79 Nah literally only needs another double-dash mode and their good

@GoldenSunRM They didn’t forget they just never cared about it in the first place as did most people back then.

@JayJ The game thrived as a multiplayer title and as you said it was clearly built for it even down to the crown obtained when you get the most points per level. I was actually really excited for this mode when it was announced, but it seems too lacking content wise for me to double dip. The whole 2 player co-op in a completely 4 player game is also an odd choice to go with that puts me off buying it. I guess I was expecting more along the lines of Champions road but it seems more like we’re getting Captain toad.

@Grumblevolcano Not that in general your point is wrong, but this dlc seems like the worst possible example to support your claim.

@May_Nyan “Another thing is that not being under the control of corporations would allow artists to follow their own creative vision and make what they want, rather than what a company thinks is "marketable", so a lot more interesting and varied things would be made as a result.”

Except anyone can pick of pencil and some paper draw whatever they want right now. If you have a creative vision follow it and don’t join said company what am I missing?

It’s also worth pointing out your view of eliminating copyrights and trademarks would result in a clear net negative for all the creators you claim to support,

@Spjelite82 Yikes blaming kids for something they had no control over

@Dr_Corndog kind of past that point aren’t we? With a theme park, and movie on the way Nintendo is already on the path of acquiring licenses.

@Razer

1. Apple has made around 360 million from Fortnite since its addition to the store. Epic has made the remaining 840 million, in what world is that not worth the hassle? If Apple asking for 30% of 1.2 BILLION is worth laughing at then straight up leave the store, instead of trying to circumvent.

2. Fortnite mobile is far from trash, I’ve played on the newest
iPad mini with my Xbox control virtually no different than playing on a switch. In fact I was actually able to run it at 60 FPS over the switches 30.

3. The beauty of Fortnite is its store and battle pass. You get a kid to download the game once, and you can easily get a couple hundred out of them over time. Even more so a reason to get your game out in front of as many people as possible.

@impurekind

1. Epic tried to cut Apple completely out of the loop with their new shop option, so that completely negates any mention of 12% when they tried to offer Apple 0.

2. Of course they can decide to take the 12% they’re the underdog in this story. Who would let Epic take 30% of their profits when their install base is minuscule compared to a company like steam? You can’t give a company props for charging less for a lesser product.

@Rexenoboy Apple made 360 milllion over the time Fortnite was on the store, if I was Epic I would pissed to be left with a measly 840 million as well.

@Snatcher Hold up wait you don’t keep your skins?

@Incarna That legitimately made me laugh out loud.

@rockodoodle Yeah it probably could sell a ton in a short amount of time. I got MK8 launch day on the Wii U and I enjoyed the game until I realized how bad the online connection was years later. If they brought back a double dash mechanic for MK9 that would be my dream as I never really played double dash. I’m just worried Nintendo feels like they have to constantly innovate the game, when all I really want is a roster of fresh tracks and carts.

@rockodoodle Well when it seems like the majority of this forum would be happy with just a couple more doc courses, what reason does Nintendo really have to make another. That and of course the fact the MK8 is still selling consistent units even this far out.

@Neoguardian86 That’s what I’m wondering how hard can it be to create a Nintendo direct style presentation which is essentially trailers and a voice over.

@retro_player_77 I’ll never understand comments like yours. They hit 2 million on Kickstarter, whether or not you decided to pledge is completely negligible in this situation.

@JSDude1 Meh if it’s anything like Lego Incredibles I’ll pass. Not sure if it’s just that game (the most recent I’ve played). But it seems as though Lego games have been tremendously dumbed down to the point where they are not nearly as fun. I remember Lego Indiana had some great puzzle moments, but Lego Incredibles quite literally holds your hand step by step as you go through the level.

@electrolite77 I don't know why my brain didn't include price in your other factors comment. My Bad.

@electrolite77 I disagree there heavily. I believe if the higher end 2k, 5k, 8k, computers cost 200, 500, 800 dollars respectively you would see a massive decline in console sales. The reality is most people can’t afford to buy or do not prioritize the purchase of anything worth having when it comes to pc’s.

After watching this I wonder what the untapped market is for companies having their Devs upload full walkthroughs of their games. I bet people could make a pretty popular series based on that.

@AnnoyingFrenzy Ok I guess that’s fair enough

@Kalmaro I’m curious why do you think that video game characters are even made different races? I am of the opinion that it’s done to differentiate the background of the characters and thus how they are in the present. If you have every single character regardless of race voiced by a white person where is the difference found? Your opinion would make more sense if every character was something abstract like blue or green. But they specifically asked their artists to draw a black character because they wanted a black character.

@AnnoyingFrenzy So essentially you are ok with selecting people purely based on race even in the face of a better performance when it comes to live-action.

@Kalmaro I never said it did. It seems illogical to hire someone of a different race to act as another. I do, however, agree with your points for pretty much any other job except for acting. Imagine they made a live action Overwatch movie and just casted who they thought was best regardless of race. Wouldn’t a White Sombra, Black Mei, and Hispanic tracer make you go “huh that’s kind of odd casting”???

@betterbygames A black voice means nothing without a black writer. Diversity isn’t something you can just add in, it’s either there from the start or it isn’t. If the writer isn’t black there really isn’t a point for there to be a black voice. With that said, I’m personally of the opinion of just hiring whatever race the character is.

@Kalmaro So spending money to buy the exact in-game you want is worse than spending money on a random chance to get said item? Huh who knew.

@TooBarFoo @ShadJV Or it’s just hand size in general. The average man’s hand is almost an inch larger than a woman’s. It’s probably just a more comfortable gaming experience overall for them, not to say your points aren’t valid of course.

@kukabuksilaks “it's not like Epic lost a ton of dollarinos on this, so they have a hole they desperately need to fill. There's a line, and it isn't thin, between what a resonable consequence is and ruining lifes for many years to come“

I mean if we’re going to use that argument, the “reasonable” thing would be to seek no zero damages at all. The player should just be banned from testing updates and/or banned from the game in general. Reasonable isn’t something that comes into play when it pertains to business and the player decided to test the limits of it clearly.

Just goes to show that matter how good of a Dev you may be, clean products come down to financial power.

He broke his NDA seems very clear cut to me. I doubt they really go anywhere with this, at least anything further than simply using this as a scare tactic.

@Doofenshmirtz Exactly all these people complaining were asking for a couple more DLC courses in kart deluxe instead of a new game.

@kuromantic

“And it's even more interesting if you think about it this way: Chick fil a’s chicken isn’t available at The Cheesecake Factory. So technically, The Cheesecake Factory isn’t stealing from chick fil a’s profits, they are entering a different market (Fine dining) with Chick fil a’s chicken.”

Does this really make sense to you?

@Zacattack99 It’s like financially it would make a difference for either league, I doubt they ever even remotely think about the fact an official game for their leagues is being made.

@manu0 True that and Animal Crossing would probably kill on a mini

It’s happening clearly, at this point it’s the worst kept secret in the world. Just wish they prioritized the Pro over a mini, but I see why they did it.

@Bunkerneath They named me in an article a little while ago, it still happens.

@Danrenfroe2016 The main game is pure simulation, but there are different modes. My team for example is where you can collect player cards old and new and play modes like 3v3

@Palico_extremeru I mean that’s like saying is Mario Kart worth 3 bucks if you’re not a racing fan. You already lose half the overall potential value of the game, but at 3 bucks why not?

I really don’t understand this obsession with the 80’s. Most people playing these games weren’t even around in the 80’s. The 90’s would probably be more relevant to today’s players.

@GrailUK That’s why you buy them every other year. The only real reason to buy it consistently is shifting playerbases and even then there’s enough in the old version to keep you playing.

It doesn't really matter regardless, to be honest. If this was the perfect sonic movie, people wouldn't give enough of a crap to support it full force. This movie was never going to hit big numbers no matter the situation, and 5 years from now people won't even remember its existence.

@Heavyarms55 The amount of bias in this comment is astounding. Free to play games do inherently have a chance to go big, because of accessibility I agree with you there. Fortnite, however, has the gameplay mechanic of building that makes it unique from any other BR type game out there. Building also creates a large skill, a gap similar to Rocket League which keeps people coming back.

Combine those aspects with the arguably most responsive dev team currently in the industry, and you have a game that’s extremely addictive. Items are routinely implemented and removed to keep unused items out of the game. Bugs are identified and mostly taken care of within one to two updates.

Why you feel the need to put down a game that invokes fun for millions is the question you should be asking yourself.

@Dazzle I mean he’s the host of America’s Funniest Home Videos, I doubt he’s desperate for cash.

@RickRau5 No, I just thought it was funny that Epic doesn't care as my post stated.

@MaxlRoseGNR Funny thing is Epic couldn’t careless how you feel about their game.

@Varkster Ahh ok I guess it’s my fault for misunderstanding, have a good rest of your day!

@Varkster The point you made in your post was how smart it was of Hollow Knight to release this DLC as free. And you ended it with a valid reason from a business stand point, for them to have not made it free. Basically you said “take note companies this is how it should be done”, and then confirmed the logic behind not doing like this.

@Varkster "I would honestly pay money for this amount of extra content in an already amazing game."

And that last sentence just cancels out everything else you stated.

These are the harmless hackers correct?
