@Vyacheslav333 I mean, they worked with WayForward on the Advance Wars reboot and look how that turned out. It's no surprise why they wouldn't even consider selling off their IPs.
@sethfranum You're missing the point. Their initial response was a complete insult to paying customers and I for one will never support them again. That doesn't mean I condone the death threats, but those happening don't suddenly earn them a free pass.
That's a relief. Bought this day one to show my support and still marking my way through it. 45 put of the 100 endings unlocked. Amazing game, great VN.
And this isn't even the first time he has had a mishap with alcohol. It's honestly surprising that it has taken this long for him to face any consequences, and if you ask me, that's only because of how popular he is. If anybody else pulled the same stunts he did, they would have been banned already.
And the saddest part? He's a father of a ten year-old. How embarrassing.
@coolioam OK? You got plenty of other channels to engage in negativity, nothing wrong with one that is positive. And frankly? Negative criticism hasn't done squat since it picked up in 2019 with SwSh. At some point, you just got to move on if Pokémon isn't cutting it for you.
@Not_Soos Funny how it's only a discussion of "forced diversity" when it's women or people or color. Why do their existence always need to be seen as "genuine" to be taken seriously? This line of thinking baffles me because you never see this type of stuff said if it's a white guy, but it's a woman or dare I say a black woman? Then it suddenly becomes "suspicious" and needs to be justified to happened.
Just because your personal politics are known here, that's not a free pass for you to come in here and constantly repeat it. Women and minorities are very real things in the world, they don't need to justify their existence to you to be taken seriously.
@Kraven I've had it where it's skipped at much as four days at once. As @Lizuka mentions, you still get to play the majority of the days, but there's definitely some that are completely skipped over with no dialogue.
I'm on Day 74, and while I am enjoying the gameplay, I do have criticisms. Weapon upgrading shouldn't be locked behind "free time" since it doesn't consume time, and I've found myself repeatedly just shy of upgrading because the story is progressing again. I also haven't come across any points where I can make a decision other than Day 0, and it really felt like the game was marketing itself as one where you influence the course of events. And with it only being 100 days long, unless those decisions are influenced by how I spend "free time", means the game only allows me to make choices in the last quarter.
All in all, still a fun game but I wish it was less restrictive. Favorite characters are Eito and Kurara!
@Not_Soos Thought you made it a point to say you were leaving the site. So much for that. Well regardless, here's hoping you make it a point to stop bringing up politics in your posts going forward. No one cares who you voted for or wants to be told why you voted for who you did.
@Not_Soos Maybe don't bring ZeRo into the conversation. Unlike Hax, his reasons for getting ousted in the community involved inappropriate conversations with a minor. It's actually gross that you would compare Hax to him.
@IOI Or it's the "leakers" who are trolling. It never made sense for Nintendo to announce the next console the same day as a new game being released, even of it's just a port. I wouldn't be surprised if Nate chose that particular day to make a fool out of everyone.
My money is on a February release. No first-party titles are planned for that day, leaving a lot of room for an announcement of some sort.
@LexKitteh People who likely don't know (and seemingly can't be bothered to use Google in this analogy) likely do not care and are just scrolling on their phones when the credits roll.
@ArcadeSixties uh, no? Retro were properly credited in the original game, I'm not particularly offended that they aren't crediting each and every developer on a remaster that they were not involved in. Potential employers wouldn't be looking at this remaster when hiring Retro devs anyway.
@Not_Soos I don't see how a new full-priced game selling better than a $5 party game from several years ago is cause for celebration. Especially when it still fell behind titles like Human: Fall Flat, a title from 2017 that is less than $10.
@Edu23XWiiU Because it's very tiring to have these political discussions in gaming spaces, especially one based around Nintendo. And this guy continuously brings up things like Trump and "woke" talking points - all the whole acknowledging that these are indeed against the rules but continues to do so anyway.
Frankly, I think he should be suspended for a week or something. He knows the rules but continues to break them, bringing unnecessary political discussion. There are other spaces he can go to have those discussions, this isn't one of them. When it reaches a point where he is telling us who he voted for in the latest election, enough is enough.
It's pretty ridiculous that @Not_Soos is continuously allowed to post off-topic political comments like this where it doesn't belong. "far-right", "woke", "fascists"; these shouldn't be words anybody should be reading on a website regarding Nintendo games. But constantly, especially in the last few weeks, this user has been pushing the envelope and saying these thing.
@Pillowpants season cycling will almost definitely still be a thing. Especially when these episodes are sold both digitally and physically, they're not going to make everything available for free and hurt those sales.
There was truly something magical about GSC that is hard to put into words. The GBC aesthetic with it's iconic soundtrack and locations has stuck with me even 25 years later. And as amazing as HGSS were as remakes, I more often find myself going back to the original games when I want to revisit Johto.
@wiiware Really just sounds like you are downplaying it because "consultation bad". I'd rather have things like Nintendo games as far removed from the influenfers of dictators as possible. The involvement of groups like Blackrock is far less severe. So again, very messed up that you'd take Saudi Arabia influence over them considering the abuse their own citizens have to live under every day.
@Not_Soos If you have a problem with this site's moderation, take it up with the admins. This is now the third time I've seen you publicly complain about comment removals; no doubt because you yourself get your comments removed for violating rules.
@LadyCharlie having discussed this game since it was first announced, a lot of AW fans (myself included) have praised this game and supported it - especially when out side-to-side with Reboot Camp. Especially with the lacking online features, the general consensus with AW fans when it comes to this is extremely positive - thus the "we". If Nintendo won't deliver, let the indies.
@LadyCharlie "wish dot com" Advance Wars is what we got with Reboot Camp. Warside looks like everything we wanted from an AW revival, and I fully support this game's release. Nintendo made it clear that they're abandoning this particular art style and genre pairing, so why shouldn't someone else take a shot with it? It's coming to Switch, so it's not like Nintendo even cares how similar it is.
"Local and online co-op is available, and players can also battle each other in PvP matches."
The co-op features are already shaping up to be better too. Like it has to be said, Reboot Camp is bad, and there's a reason why it has still failed to break even one-million copies sold. WayForward dropped the ball, and frankly, I hope they don't get another chance with it. They were too busy promoting an eShop sale for River City Girls on the day that this released, so there's clearly no love lost.
@Haruki_NLI It's no secret that last year's remake pretty much flopped and was pushed out the door. WayForward themselves couldn't be bothered to do more than make a single post with an Advance Wars cake and not say another word about it since. The writing is on the wall with this one sadly, and the IP is probably going back on ice for a while.
Tried The Exit 8 on a whim and was hooked. Even completed it twice because it was fun trying to find all of the creepy changes. Definitely will pick up the sequel.
