Rather look at graffiti than adverts tbh.

-puts on tinfoil hat- Is this why we’re suddenly getting so many remasters/remakes?

-takes off hat- No, it’s probably because the corporate gaming industry is creatively bankrupt and want to cash in on nostalgia with minimal risk. But remakes/remasters probably strengthen the “market harm” portion of their argument.

Just a correction: it’s an actual remake like Resident Evil 4, not a remaster. Entirely new engine (Unreal 5), character models, environments, music/sound, and new content around the plot. Considering the original came out in 2001, the updates were sorely needed imo.

Konami needs to get the Dead Cells team (Evil Empire, not Motion Twin) to do a Castlevania game, that DLC (especially the remixed music) was so gas

I’m also sick of Konami just porting the games over and over again. I love Castlevania, but I have bought the games so many times in so many different collections that it feels like it’s own pachinko hell. And we all know how Konami feels about pachinko.

I counted the announcement for Prime 4 slated for release next year as part of “recently”. I haven’t eaten this good as a Metroid fan in years, let me live 😭

The “Metroid” part of the metroidvania genre got two new releases recently, I have hope that the “vania” part will too. -huffs copium-

I actually have MS Seattle HQ address as my Xbox address lol

Most Outspoken Gamers^tm nowadays don’t even play the games they’re being outspoken about. Look at all the clowns calling Ghost of Yotei “woke” for having a female protagonist when Tsushima already had multiple female warriors.

Nooooo this is so sad! Shutaro Ida has been a big part of the “modern” Castlevania games (post-2000) and Bloodstained. I really hope he can beat this.

Fuck cancer.

Even Haru’s billionaire ass can’t afford all these subscriptions 😭

It’s much cheaper for you to buy a disk PS5 and install an M.2SSD yourself (up to 8TB), it’s incredibly easy, and Sony has a page/videos on how to do it yourself.

I’ve seen disk PS5 go on sale as low as $400USD at big box retailers, presumably to make shelf space for the pros. The used marketplace is there as well.

SHOW ME THE CHAMPION OF LIIIIIGHT

Come to the ARAM/TFT retirement home, it’s where the chill people are.

Shounen Jump is a great example. It works, it’s readers find value in it enough to pay for subscriptions, and it clearly has some sort of profitability. A great model of what other manga magazines could do, but they refuse because most of them are run by dinosaurs and would rather cry “piracy is ruining our profits wah” when they DON’T EVEN HAVE A PRODUCT in the market to profit from!

Sorry Japan, manga piracy/scanlations until I die. There are so many niche authors/manga that never get officially translated to any other language because your industry thinks everyone just wants to read shounen and only the top 1% of shoujo/seinen/josei. Don’t even get me started on BL/GL.

Meanwhile some fucking random scanlation team does a better job of translating and making a chapter of Rose of Versailles more accessible to modern audiences than the entire Japanese manga publishing apparatus ever will.

FR, why were they all suddenly making Tiktoks using the wolf transformation filter and saying they were gonna rise up last month? Was it like a collective midlife crisis?

He’s a certified pedophile (wop wop wop wop wop)

I mean…is that really “news”.

Sorry, that’s really cynical lol

Yeah it’s weird, but technically Microsoft didn’t even acquire it until October 2023. Was WoW/ActiBlizz in the news in the 8 months since?
