treating Nomura as a figurehead for the management issues just feels like a weird projection :shrug:

I'm not

I'm trashing Nomura for sucking at his job and Square for keeping him around with increasingly bloated and failing projects, when he is directly involved in KH3 and FF7R, having just announced he'd like EU stuff in the remake, which is Bad and Wrong and Stupid

If you don't like me trash talking him just say so

are we doing the weird thing where we act as if KH3 was supposed to have been in development since the PS2 days and not only greenlit in 2013? 2013-2019 is still a pretty long run for game dev, but it's nothing I'd start yelling trainwreck over. nintendo announced metroid prime 4 over a year ago and hasn't shown anything but a logo

Six years is much different than 1 year, most games announce a title and dont show anything for like 18 months.

i mean, i dont give a poo poo about the Square Enix management, i will never pretend to know anything about it OR, give a gently caress. But six years and one year is an exponential comparison

I bought FF15 on release and fell off about chapter 3 or 4.

It's always in the back of my mind to go back to it so seeing this stuff is funny

yeah I meant in terms of like, when game companies toss names out there for easy hype despite literally just putting together a team, you're gonna be waiting a while before even getting to the typical promotional cycle

The fact you could perma-glitch her into your party as some phantom 5th was cool as poo poo, I love those kinds of glitches in games, especially when they're just functional enough to stick

You can apparently glitch Paper Mario TTYD so that Flavio is permanently following Mario, even in the credits.

Yeah, it's great. They do this in one of the AGDQ speedruns as an incentive, and it's pretty funny.

Remember that time Nomura wanted to redo ff15 as a musical because he saw the film version of Les Mis and that was when people were finally like "no we're not redoing this poo poo god drat"

Are they adding a real hard mode to this game? I've been wanting that since launch. They've got all these cool characters with unqiue movesets but none of it matters when the game is stupidly easy.

not too, its the same thing. the loss they booked was the value of whatever it was they cancelled that tabata was working on "including the disposition of the portion of the content production account related to the game titles under development at the Subsidiary and impairment losses on intangible assets"

Of course, what self-respecting zombie mastermind doesn't stock his lair with a GIANT ROBOT STATUE?! Sir, I wish to see the design specs to this building because I'm starting to suspect all of this is not structurally sound.

Huh, did Blizzard really lose $4,000,000,000 in stock or is that just clickbait bullshit number magic

I only ever played Diablo 1, funny to see the downslide

Replaced the 500GB hard drive with a 1TB hard drive in Lady Videogames' PS4 yesterday evening and queued up about 20 things to install (and subsequently complete when I am half way through a few of them)! On the list are:
Yakuza 0.
Witcher 3.
Spider-man. (60% through)
God of War. (50% through)
Persona 5 (Deliberately went back to the school - not sure the percentage through).
Destiny 1 (On Venus!)
Red Dead Redemption 2 (start of Chapter 2!)

and a few smaller ones like Everybody's Golf, and Peggle 2.

I am making it my goal to have all these big names finished before March 2019 :D
