Re: Video: Digital Foundry's Technical Analysis Of Dying Light On Switch

@westman98 they can implement TAA but that vastly increases development costs and the budget they get from the publisher isn't enough so that's why you don't see it.

Development costs and timing is one thing gamers don't appreciate when they moan about certain ports. I have no doubt some development teams have had small amounts of money and unrealistic deadlines when getting ports ready for switch.

Re: Talking Point: The Metroid Dread Credits Debate Is Sadly Common

@BloodyMurder wow! So if a female friend or family member told you she was sexually abused but didn't want to go to the police i take it you would be calling her a liar yes?

The idea that unless you go further with complaint you are liar is absurd. Do you not see how ridiculous you sound.

@John_Deacon I am amazed how people are more quick to defend corporations and business over the workers. Madness!

Re: Metroid Dread Staff Say They've Been Left Out Of The Game's Credits, MercurySteam Responds

kobashi100

@piecez no that 11 months pay was not there credit. That was money owed to them for a thing called labour. Your statement implies they should be grateful they got paid.

Actually sad to see the few people on here sticking up for the employer rather than the employee. The staff have every right to question why they are not named in the credits.

There work should have been recognised and it doesn't look good for mercury steam and other development houses that take part in this practise.

Re: Report Claims FIFA Wants EA To Cough Up "More Than Double" For Licence

kobashi100

@Kidfunkadelic83 you are completely wrong. EA Pay for the league's direct and has nothing to do with the FIFA license. They also pay Fifpro for player likeness which is a complete separate deal with they have already renewed.

FIFA are delusional if they think EA or any other publisher will pay what they want. EA won't pay this. More likely they walk away and instead pay for the FIFA license every 4 years for use in world cup update to the main new EA football games. Will cost EA far less and FIFA will be eager for deal when they have seen nobody is paying what they want for the FIFA license.

Re: Valve Responds To 'Switch Vs Steam Deck' Comparisons, Insists It's "Going After" A Different Audience

@BloodNinja I am saying the amount of people with the same opinion as you is a tiny percent so all this Nintendo should be worried talk is some OTT jokes. But hey there is no point us debating this now. We have a different opinion and that's cool! Let's just see after 12 months of steam deck release what the numbers are saying. we can then conclude who was right and who was wrong about Nintendo should be worried!

Re: Sword And Shield Leakers Required To Pay The Pokémon Company $150K Each

kobashi100

@Spiders it's not like they signed the NDA with a gun to there heads or didn't understand what they were signing. They will have known how dangerous it would be to leak images but still did it. The punishment was probably so harsh because the judge will have seen that the two leakers were experienced in there jobs and knew all the risks etc etc but still did the crime.

@Strumpan the printing company may have lost the Pokémon contract and other contracts with various companies because these two staff members stupidity. NDA's are not a joke piece of paper. Yes the punishment was harsh but the two individuals knew the risk they were taking.

There actions may have caused other people to lose jobs if the printing company has had there reputation damaged.

@BiscuitCrumbsInMyBed well none of us know for sure what damage they have done to the company they were representing. Stating they haven't hurt anyone is not a fair statement.

Re: Rumour: Switch Pro To Offer 'Surface-Style' Tabletop Flap, USB 3.0 And Ethernet Connectivity

kobashi100

@Heavyarms55 of course there is no pictures of hardware or documents. Leakers decide what they want to leak and which dates to put the info out. People like Bloomberg and Eurogamer follow them instructions as they want to keep there source within Nintendo sweet.

Let's stop the silly talk about leakers would lose there jobs. They certainly would if ever caught. The chances of that happening are minimal. Eurogamer are not gonna snitch on there sources. Also companies/sports teams etc etc from the high ups leak stuff out to the media (can be true or false).

This practice has existed like forever!

@SwitchForce take a chill pill kill Bill!

I have no idea why your wrote that big response to me. Where did I ever say that the switch pro was gonna have all the things you just argued against. I am truly baffled how you got all that from reading my initial reply about people being unhappy that Nintendo are releasing this new machine. It's like you made up a bunch of stuff just so you could argue against it.

Re: Rumour: Switch Pro To Offer 'Surface-Style' Tabletop Flap, USB 3.0 And Ethernet Connectivity

kobashi100

@AtlanteanMan yeah that's why I said it is never gonna happen as like you said the manufacturing companies don't care one bit. I am a sneaker head and have seen how Nike don't care one bit. getting new Jordan sneakers now on release for example is practically impossible unless you are using bots. As Nike have done nothing to stop bots and don't care I have decided to treat them the same and now my money goes to Chinese factories who manufacturer amazing replica sneakers.

Re: Rumour: Switch Pro To Offer 'Surface-Style' Tabletop Flap, USB 3.0 And Ethernet Connectivity

@Heavyarms55 leakers exist in every single industry and yes it is from people who work within the companies. If you believe nobody within Nintendo ever leaks information then you are being very naive. Leaks are part and parcel of technology. Sony, MS, Apple, Google, Samsung etc etc just like Nintendo have staff leaking stuff. Eurogamer have been brave enough to confirm switch pro due to very credible sources they have.

Okay if you didn't believe it before that's one thing but to still continue with this denial is straight up delusional
