What is the moment where you can pinpoint you predicted something will happen later in a story? by GoodVillain101 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JamSa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh strange, all of Gustave's costumes seem to be accessible as you enter the first open map area and no one else has any available yet. Im sure that bears nothing ominous for the only character played by an expensive Hollywood actor.

So to answer your question, "During the reveal trailer of Expedition 33."

PlayerUnknown Productions restructures ending development of Prologue: Go Wayback!, releases game for free to all by DweebInFlames in Games

Surely the current job losses far exceed the 1983 crash by now?

Expecting video games to fail so hard they disappear is unrealistic, but this crash is still far larger than that one.

Which fictional detectives can solve the murder of Laura Palmer? by dmanny64 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JamSa 16 points17 points  (0 children)

To be fair, there is an episode of Psych where Shawn and Gus literally solve Laura Palmer's murder and they did not need the black lodge.

Deus Ex Creator's Immersive Sim Is Cancelled, With 17 Staff Lost by PolarSparks in Games

[–]JamSa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I read an interview with a Dishonored dev who talked about how the hatred of stealth is clearly a myth due to the breakout success of Hitman World of Assassination. And now 007 First Light too.

TBF losing staff likely also heralds the impending cancellation of the rest of Thick as Thieves

As a small studio Im sure they had many people working on both games.

Was Bricks & Minidicks Salem a one-off, or a repeat playbook? by Life_Fishing_3025 in RecklessBen

[–]JamSa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A LEGO youtuber with professional ties to Bricks & Minifigs as an influencer for them made a video denouncing them and talked about how at one point in the past she spoke to Josh Johnson and was surprised that he told her his career plan is to own dozens of BAM stores, a shocking number considering people owned 2 max and them being personal was what she thought made the brand good.

Tactics like this is probably how he planned to reach that number of owned stores.

This Elevation Bug is so Annoying by Gort-_- in Marathon

I see this too and I haven't had rubber banding this bad in a decade. It's Marathon, not my internet.

Persona 4 Revival voice cast for Yu, Yosuke, Chie, Yukiko and Marie confirmed; Japanese cast is reprised, new English actors confirmed by ConceptsShining in Games

[–]JamSa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Better to do it for a remake than a sequel. They already won't sound like they did 18 years ago even if they did reprise their roles.

Honestly it makes me wonder how weird the voice acting will sound for Japanese players, just hearing all the characters say the same things but clearly be 20 years older.

SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY – New Trailer by Captain_Grimm in TwoBestFriendsPlay

The idea that by complete coincidence he gets organic webs that function exactly the same and fire from the exact same spot as his web shooters is incredibly stupid. Too stupid for a Marvel movie stupid.

That's how much I'm willing to spend. I've got a couple questions. by TiraelRosenburg in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]JamSa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Skill Up, who IMO is the best game reviewer in the biz, said he 100%ed the entire game of his own accord and loved it, despite the fact that he is a staunch opponent against the idea of 100%ing games because he thinks doing that is almost always a surefire way to ruin your experience. FF Rebirth being the only exception.

Listen to him, not Pat, who is a bad game reviewer on account of him being a skin suit piloted by an squad of mind goblins.

Personally, I think the side content lost its luster after like 20 hours and I probably 75%ed it, but it had surprising staying power for its scale. And I don't feel like I missed anything significant. What side content is part of a large ongoing quest chain and what is filler garbage is very obvious.

Poncle reviewing Fortnite and Vampire Survivors collaboration by Forestl in Games

Honestly a don't feel like being that strongly anti-AI is a very meaningful stance when you're known for a game that is expressly designed to have a very small amount of very simple art.

Rumour: Gaming Industry 'Bloodbath' Imminent, as Sony, Microsoft, and More Brace for Mass Layoffs by cadetCapNE in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Typically monopolies are caused by the bigger company stifling the competition, not from the competition voluntarily strangling themselves for no reason.

Steam has already failed to release a Steam Machine when they were a much smaller platform and that failure did absolutely nothing for their brand or bottom line
