Is it? XIV has its own devteam and they weren’t A-listers at the start.

FF7R is great but no remake is worth monopolizing square’s A team for ten years. We could have had 17 and 18 by now.

Maximum dooming for a game that almost everyone likes. lmao
- Comment on Reminder if you're leaving Discord for this Revolt server ( Linux + Steam Deck devs / creators) 1 week ago:
That just proves they’re already willing to make it worse. Dating apps have $500/mo plans now. Snapchat is 95% ads, 5% chat

Some examples if you’re curious: WWE after the TKO merger, Microsoft Solitaire after windows 10, any dating app purchased by Match.com

- Comment on PSA: I want a law for PC games to be offered in physical versions again 2 weeks ago:
Plastic cases, discs, etc are expensive and degrade over time. If we do get a video game preservation law, make it digital.
Emulation and piracy should be legal for games older than a certain point, or if the parent company goes under. And online games should be required to make a offline mode patch before shutting down.
- Comment on When Nintendo games were affordable 2 weeks ago:
Used games are always cheaper, what point does this make?
- Comment on Does the 2 hour refund limit on Steam affect game design? 2 weeks ago:
When games were expecting to be rentals, the first few levels would be front loaded with the best that the game had to offer, and then later levels would be more phoned in
Still happens today. First impressions matter, budgets are finite, and sometimes reviewers only play the first few parts.

- Comment on Switch 2 Tutorial Game Welcome Tour Costs $10, Nintendo Explains Why It's Not a Free Console Pack-In - IGN 4 weeks ago:
Makes sense, but if it’s only $10 it should just be free. Not worth the bad PR and they should want this game in as many hands as possible.

“for all ages” and “for kids” are two different things. People still don’t understand this.
- Comment on The Switch 2 Rollout Was So Convoluted It Made Us Want A Steam Deck. 4 weeks ago:
You’re overreacting to other people’s social media overreactions. I’m talking about the actual products they sell.
- Comment on Thoughts on Mario Kart World 4 weeks ago:
Everything I want is “sometime in 2025”, not launch day. It looks good though.
- Comment on The Switch 2 Rollout Was So Convoluted It Made Us Want A Steam Deck. 4 weeks ago:
Nintendo is basically like Apple at this point, the brand is enough to convince people to spend more than they would for the competition, regardless of quality.
People spend more on Apple/Nintendo because of quality
- Comment on First-party Switch 2 games—including re-releases—all run either $70 or $80 4 weeks ago:
Am I the only one who doesn’t care about this? We’ll wait for the 33% nintendo sales and fill the rest of the year with 3rd party 80% sales like always

???
No it wasn’t
- Comment on Best game ever? 1 month ago:
FFXIV, but this doesn’t mean anything because it’s dependent on what genres you like.
Most historically significant? Mario 1, FF4, FF7, Minecraft, Dark Souls, etc.

- Comment on ARK DLC Trailer Slammed For Being Made Entirely Through Gen AI 1 month ago:
Good AI art should be completely invisible, like when romcom movies with “no CG” are actually changing the entire sky and no one realizes. People were able to spot the flaws here instantly.
