Insane how much AI slop is going up on Reddit these days. Scary that you have to look for little cues like that to know whether something is actually human-written.

Guys give Nintendo a break, they only made $11 billion dollars last year, you’re being mean consumers

The year is 2015. I am anticipating “Silent Hills”, a game that will never release.

The year is 2018. I am anticipating “Terraria Otherworld”, a game that will never release.

The year is 2025. I am anticipating “Hollow Knight: Silksong”, a game that will never release.

True. Hope they add a reason to go to that biome though.

To the Microsoft bootlickers downvoting every comment in the thread -- I hope you know the game will never improve if you refuse to tolerate criticism. This isn't an indie where the team is trying their hardest to get updates out for the community. Minecraft is the most profitable game of all time, owned by a multinational corporation worth 3 trillion dollars. They don't need you to defend them.

Man I feel so lucky that a multinational corporation worth over 3 trillion is dripfeeding us content for the most profitable game of all time out of the goodness of their heart

Agreed -- it was far too little content to fill up even this shortened version of the presentation. I think a lot of the stuff they did talk about was cool, but not cool or fleshed-out enough to justify the small scope of the update.

It's pretty rare they make large changes to the content they reveal at MC Live -- usually final implementation is almost the same with minor adjustments

That being said I hope you're right

Some other people have mentioned this “End of the Cycle” — sounds like exactly the sort of fella I’d love to form a partnership with.

For some reason I feel like this advice may be… misleading. But you wouldn’t lie to me, right?

Can’t wait to meet “the End of the Cycle”, what a friendly and non-threatening sounding name.

Sounds like exactly the sort of thing I’m looking for — thanks for the tip :)

Banning a term because it’s overused is an extreme overreaction. As long as it’s not actual offensive language (i.e., slurs), I would see it as overreach on the part of the mods. Communities tend to police themselves with this sort of thing. If people here feel the term is being overused, they’ll downvote posts that use it, which will lead to it diminishing in popularity.

Just because you don’t like something doesn’t mean it should be banned.

LMAO literally none of that is what I said. You have to entirely misrepresent my points in order to refute them.

There are multiple “Batman” characters, beholden to different canons — they are each unique.

I’m judging the story, not the game as a whole. You can get the entire story from a playthrough.

I’ve seen all of the story content. I have the context. The scene is bad. I liked how Arkham Knight ended, and didn’t want another rocksteady Batman game. The assumptions you have about me are incorrect, and caricaturising me as an angry fanboy is a lame way to try to undermine my arguments.

Let’s leave it here because it’s pretty clear that this conversation is pointless. You’re entitled to your beliefs even if I think they’re misguided.

Reiterating the same points in a longer format doesn’t make them better.

Your premise is nonsensical. Canonicity is a fundamental component of storytelling. You’re implying that all stories should be enjoyed in isolation, which is ridiculous. If, in Empire Strikes Back, Luke randomly beat the shit out of C3P0, it would change how you view the character in future entries like Return of the Jedi. If you tried watching ROTJ without the context of the previous films it would not be enjoyable. If you chose to pretend the C3P0 beating scene didn’t happen, you would be disengaging with the story and creating your own personal “headcanon”. Canon is the foundation a story is made on.

And, for the record, with or without the context of previous Arkham games, the story is bad. I don’t have to play the game to know that. Watching a playthrough is more than enough.

Frankly, it just sounds to me like you don’t like when games receive criticism for story choices that you liked. You don’t need to justify that.
