i didn't know "chonk" was supposed to be an epic meme word until reading the needlessly sour comments above me, i just thought it was a cute pig (like tepig, who is horribly underloved, or the aforementioned p-chan)
a simple cute design can do a lot! simplicity =/= bad
not that i don't appreciate the look/hands-on (though i keep reading it as Drainius,) but two articles about a "Maybe It'll Come To A Nintendo Console Tee Hee" feels a bit out of place
@PrinsPaddestoel "on demand" tends to have rental implications in usage (over here at least--see cable companies' "on demand" services for this in action,) so i think it works for stuff like cloud/subscription games which GaaS often are
@meleehunter additional content to an already complete game though...? also I don't think anyone in history has ever said melee is incomplete, unless you mean balance, which is entirely separate from content
@HeeHo did you miss every one of andy's comments (which, including replies to, consist of 1/3 the comments, though he has since been wiped from existence) here or
@nessisonett all that guy's games are like that from what i understand, and they are very good (though a bit pretentious)--think he just released another with a lumberjack even
@bluemage1989 generally if you're going to call 90% of a website untalented hack writers over one snarky review from the snarky reviewer it's not exactly constructive criticism, innit
you comment how much you hate this site's writing so often it's kind of becoming redundant

Re: Review: Lost Ruins - A Survival-Focused Metroidvania With Fantastic Pixel Art
@Jamie_R pixel art is just a form like any other, it's style where things shine through
do you go " 'Crime show that's live action'. Very original." often?
Re: Review: Lost Ruins - A Survival-Focused Metroidvania With Fantastic Pixel Art

Re: Shantae Celebrates 20 Years With A Switch eShop Sale, Up To 50% Off
risky's revenge was pretty fun, but to some extent it feels like shantae's becoming more "style over substance" as time goes on...

Re: Fei Long Will Never Appear In Street Fighter Again, Says SFV Composer
@ValZ hitmonlee's tribute only goes as far as "does kicks," i think it's probably safe (plus the JP name references someone entirely different)

@Fizza of course you aren't being disrespectful, it's just surprising is all
Re: Fei Long Will Never Appear In Street Fighter Again, Says SFV Composer
@Fizza i'm kind of shocked you hadn't--his death (and later his son's) are two of the most noted celebrity deaths of the last 100 years
