CJacobs posted:It's an offshoot of Games Done Quick hosted by people who dislike that it has become more politically correct. 'Sterile' is how they describe it to avoid saying 'You can't say bad words and racist stuff and I wanna' So basically, the speedrun equivalent of those SA offsites that are full of bitter banned users. It's interesting how people like this are never anywhere near as funny or entertaining as they seem to believe they are.

They probably threw their money at it long before their "gently caress making video games" phase started and don't care if it makes them money or flops at this point.

Hi folks, I wanted to do some streaming tonight, but I cannot, for a few reasons, so instead, I am watching the Aziz Ansari show, which I think is pretty good, and sipping some gin I've been keeping in the freezer for summer drinks.

I know it's just a coincidence considering the circumstances behind it being in the show* but I liked to imagine that the tree thing was a homage to Deadly Premonition. *The actor who played the dancing dwarf in the original show wasn't allowed to return for S3 because he went nuts and in between flurries of Trump bullshit on Facebook accused David Lynch of raping his daughter and murdering Jack Nance's wife and that Twin Peaks was based on that. So he replaces with an electric brain tree that makes jello noises, ditty bout my clitty posted:Congratulations, you just got hired to write for RPS I do love that the response from the games industry to years of crazy assholes calling them SJW cucks and doxxing their workplaces is to double down and go out of their way to explicitly make games about women and minorities killing right wing crazies. Same with how thinkpieces are a guaranteed way for games journalism sites to get clicks from all the people they criticize hate-reading them.

Wamdoodle posted:I'm watching this and good stuff, as usual. How is The Surge? It came out then I haven't heard much of anything about it but I haven't actively looked for anything about it. Usually if a game is good I'll eventually hear about it somewhere in Games, like Prey. I went from it barely registering on my radar to instant buy after seeing people gushing about it. Was not disappointed either. It's okay. Solid 6.5 Dark Souls clone. It feels really good, graphics are okay,combat system is fleshed out and well realized. They pretty much failed to make the game actually compelling or interesting or not have the back half really show the limits of their time in terms of level design or keeping up enemy variety. Don't buy at full price.

It's kinda like Project Spark, if anyone gave a poo poo about Project Spark (including the creators who apparently couldn't be arsed to give it an actual name). Seems very moddable and has the potential for making cool stuff, but going by what my kids play it's nothing but lovely memes and copyright-infringed material. raditts fucked around with this message at 02:00 on May 26, 2017 |

Cowcaster posted:i find it quite surprising that konami is tossing any amount of cash at all into making a castlevania cartoon since it can't sell them more pachinko machines Konami likes to use licenses (sports and anime) and time promotions around major events, such as a major baseball game or the release of a new anime. They said they wanted their internal brands to have cross media appeal and synergize as well as their licenced brands. The Colonel posted:iirc the whole pachinko business a bunch of game companies jumped on turned out to be a lot nastier to try and profit off of than they expected, which is why snk pulled a complete 180 back to video games, and i think konami got hit a bit by it too so they've been taking some glances back at doing other things with their ips that will get them money than just stuffing them in gambling machines Konami's stock price hit a record peak this year. They have well diversified business that performs strong in all market conditions. Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Links is a hit on mobile along with their baseball games. Super Bomberman R sold 500K at $60. Better gambling reputations and growth in SEA markets will help their gambling division. Fitness and health is an evergreen business. They don't have to pay Hideo Kojima's bills anymore. In fact, Konami's market cap is higher than than of Square-Enix. AAA gaming and mid-tier gaming has a much worse risk to margin ratio when compared to pachinko and mobile gaming. Konami is very good at identifying trends/opportunities, committing to a plan, and executing it well. In short, they're the complete opposite of Capcom.
