Re: Random: Somebody's Bought The Silent Hill Domain Just To Troll Konami

The reason the creator hates Pyramid Head now is because the character is a horse well beaten past expiration. The creator made the character specifically for Silent Hill 2. The depth of his design, story purpose and intrigue, all of it was meant to only fit 2s narrative. But Konamis continuous use of the character cheapened him. He's become a mascot, not a being of sinful consequences and personal suffering.

Re: Talking Point: Who Is Nintendo Going To Buy? Don't Be Shocked If The Answer Is "Nobody"

I like that Nintendo buys company's they actually plan to utilize. Like the Luigis Mansion 3 studio. Cause Sony and Microsoft rarely ever properly utilize studios they purchase. Rare being a primary example. They produced very few titles under Microsoft belt, before being shoved off onto developing only for the Kinect. And then only recently were they brought back for 1 new ongoing IP, with next to nothing being produced since.

@ModdedInkling there are easy ways they could have avoided this mess
1. Giving the devs more time. They were working on 3 games simultaneously, they needed so much more time to work on every aspect of the games.
2. Remaster 1 game at a time. This also would have helped. Remastering 1 game at at time would have relieved so much pressure from the devs, and it'd make their initial deadline so much more feasible.
3. Just outsource it elsewhere. The dev team for the trilogy was a trusted GTA developer. Who had experience porting the 3 games to mobile platforms for the past decade. It makes since why they were chosen. But Rockstar just didn't realize just how big of a weight this project was, and the exact obstacles in the dev teams way. They really should have outsourced it to a bigger and more experienced studio.

@ModdedInkling actually I looked into this games development. And the issue stims from Rockstar getting the GTA mobile port development team to make these games. So not only was the team, who only ever made mobile ports, tasked with making not 1 but 3 remaster at once. Not only did they have to make them for multiple systems. But on top of it all they had such an absurd deadline to finish all 3 games in. It's legitimately a miracle these games are in a playable state at all.
