Android and APK solved the problem that my country is not supported yet. The game is amazing for a mobile game. So much stuff to do and the raid was very entertaining.
I have no idea if you can catch a Mewtwo every raid you do since i have not played Pokemon Go in a very long time. But if he managed to sell all of those for 400$ he made nearly 200k. Not bad.
So you said that Crystal is the ultimate version of gold and silver until soul and heart dethroned it... yet you placed it beneath gold and silver... i dont understand.
@Yorumi I made the choice to not even get the switch because of payed online. I have owned every Nintendo console since the SNES. Still feels a little sad but i am not going to abandon my priciples for a console.
@Yorumi You could add game prices as well if you want. And just stick to a 5 year cycle. PC games are much cheaper than console games. So after 5 years of buying perhaps 5 full price games per year a console game will have spent anywhere between 300 and 500 more than a PC gamer.
@Octane I tried playing a normal Fire Emblem game and found them not to my liking. But i played Fire Emblem Heroes a lot and still play regularly but not near as much as i once had. I spend 5$ on the game and beside going for the absolut top i can do pretty much everything in the game. It is just a really good quick mobile game. FEH and Girls Frontline are my current go to mobile games. Both are really f2p friendly (GFL even more than FEH) so that is a huge bonus to those games. I would not have touched eiter of them if i had to spend money to progress.
@Aneira Strange. Everyone i know does not like salty pop corn. Everyone eats it sweet. And we are all Europeans. Finding salty pop corn in a store is very rare.
It is still a great game and you can reach the top without ever spending any money. I took a long break from the game but got back into it late last year. If you know what you want you can reach the top of the game in rather short time. It is not p2w. Personally i spend 4,50€ on it so far. I am currently bouncing between tier 20 and 19. So very close to stay at the top in tier 20.
30 fps in a twitch shooter is just not good enough. 30 fps in shooters in general is rather repulsive. Once you tasted 60 fps or more you just don't want to go back. Well this version is for those that can't get any of the other versions. Nothing to write home about.
I don't really care what the game scores. Never been a big Mario JnR fan. But i don't get why the complaint that a game offers no challange until the post game is not a valid one. I totally understand why someone would not be interested in in going for 100%. I hardly do it myself. I finish the story and sometimes i go back and grab all the little secrets. In the last two Tomb Raiders i went out of my way to get everything. But someone who was not interested in that still got a challanging game. I have not played SMO so i can't verify if the game is too easy until after the credits. So this is just an overall thought on the matter.
Afaik there is no legal precedent for copyright and streaming video games right? I think we really need one. I still believe that playing and watching a game are two very different things.
It is a little depressing that full price retail titles get the freemium economy of a mobile game bolted on more and more. But since people keep on paying for it... STOP paying for that.
I don't understand why they did not release Pokemon Crystal as well? Would have picked that up in a heart beat. Not really interested in Silver/Gold again.
Honestly i don't like the look. When i got a message on Steam i could preorder this i took a look and decided against it. Would have preferred the old style but with higher resolution.
I had hopes for Terranigma ... would have loved to see that game on the list. Rest of the games are pretty cool. If i get a chance to buy one i will do so i think.
@jsty3105 "But again, to differentiate this, we have had conversations with entities that started as fans and became more of a business partner. Those conversations happen all the time, but again, when something transitions to a commercial product, and that's what [AM2R] was—there wasn't a charge, but it was now a commercial product." It never was a commercial product. Either he is willfully telling us something that is not true or he is just stupid. I doubt he is stupid.
I wish Reggie would have just said that they had to protect their trademark. Instead he decided to lie. Everyone understands if you have to defend your trademark because of the law. Just tell the truth.
After watching the trailer i was not really impressed. After watching the gameplay i am very intrigued. Might end up being one of the very few games i will buy this year. So far only Battlefront 2 is on that list pending reviews.
Only watched an hour of gameplay and it just looked boring.
Perhaps it is more fun to play but watching the gameplay made me not regret not picking up a switch.
Funny how the argument of free online is now suddenly less valid because Nintendo decided to jump on the pay train as well.
I won't buy any console that wants me to pay for online. If that leads me to a apoint where i can no longer buy a new console so be it. The PC is still a great gaming platform.
Because the game was so well recieved we had to delay much needed content updates so most players would stop playing again. Now thats a great business plan. When the game was released i saw tons of people outside trying to catch pokemon. They are all gone. Noone is still doing it around here.
I am not a fan of thid DLC. They are charging for what should have been in a free patch. The Korok mask, the Medallion, the Path and the Hard Mode should all have been free updates. It sets an alarming precedent that everyone should be very cautious about. That they are not offering the two packs seperately is another cause for concern.
@Kokusho Yeah i tried for Ike and got Alm instead. Well its my first Falchion so i am happy.
I have played a few f2p games on pc recently and so far i am having a good time with all of them. Some i even ended up spending money on. But i don't mind that when i get over 1000 hours of gameplay out of a game.
FEH is very generous to its F2P plyers tho.
I have not spent anything on the game yet and am still having loads of fun. New contet and events are added constantly and the devs seem to listen to the playerbase and make very good chnages based on feedback.
I strongly dislike open world games. Too much busywork in those games. With pay to play online and the push of open world i don't see the need for a new Nintendo console at all. Seems like n3ds and WiiU will be my last.
It is a pretty standard business decision.
Distance yourself from anything that could have a negative impact on your product.
After his statements this was just a matter of time.
Role-Playing/Massively Multiplayer Game of the Year as a category feels rather strange. MMGs have evolved and not just RPGs these days. While i can understand Strategy/Simulation Game of the Year as a category i feel it would also be better to split it up.
What version of SF did win this time? I am losing track. Beside that all very good games and deservingw inners.
