so, uh, yeah Grouchio posted:I'm predicting that today's podcast will be a Telltale Games memorial with sprinkles of Bowsette. I bet that Matt brings up Bowsette, Pat says he's completely disgusted and people on the internet are horny af, Woolie tries to psychoanalyze it, admits he doesn't know anything about it and Matt & Pat badly explain it while they all reference fanart that's being shown on the screen. I'm super interested in their takes on Telltale. One of the main reasons I saw Pat's latest Spider-man streams was to hear his thoughts on it, but he kept it short there.

There ain't much to be said about Telltale other than holy gently caress was that company terribly mismanaged. It's another example of the gaming industry having way worse issues than microtransactions or bad framerates.

The thing that takes it slightly above a dumb horny fan thing is that it's really popular. A top trending hashtag on japanese twitter.

Like 163 million results or something nuts like that. And it seems Bowsette has apparently caught on big among Japanese LGBTQ Twitter and they even came up with a catchphrase that roughly translates to "despite the man's outside appearance, the inner girl is beautiful," so y'know, snark harder or pull back depending on how that makes you feel.

Dias posted:Plus it was a thing in DMC4SE already and it had no impact at all. At most they'll say it's kinda dumb. Something you all don't realize is that they couldn't have changed the orb rates in 4SE because people could have compared it to 4's rates and be called out for their poo poo, but in this case I'm expecting the mid to endgame being an utter grind fest a la shadow of war.

I mean, they did change it...they made a mode that gives you MORE Orbs. Also this: https://www.dualshockers.com/devil-may-cry-5-red-orbs-playing-normally/ Also Pat should use Dante's regular roll more.

Microtransactions are scummy, period. No matter how inconsequential they are. I'm going to buy DMCV anyway, because I'm a hopeless fanboy, but I absolutely do not blame people for taking a hardline stance against this.

It’d help if people just called them transactions or something more pejorative.

Dabir posted:Lemme, uh, help you out there champ. So you're willing to toxx on this, I'd assume from your condescending tone? Microtransactions aren't necessarily scummy (especially for multiplayer games with continued support), same goes for DLC, but big companies have made sure to poison that well with incredibly greedy models. This specific case IS scummy, but you have a previous game in the same series which added the same sort of microtransactions while actually making orbs MORE PLENTIFUL, and you have a beta build that dropped the DLC bomb but still was tuned pretty fairly, which MANY people had access to. I think we're gonna be okay when it comes to game balancing, unless Capcom REALLY wants to shoot itself on the foot - they only do that with fighting games, tho. What was the last time the "they'll break this game's balance with microtransactions" crowd was right, anyway? Even Shadow of War was overstated, and I think that's the closest we ever came to that.
