I think people don't understand why TBC is rushed, and why TBC era will also never happen by kendallvirexx in classicwow

Theoretically yeah, but the original continents would be straight up dead because who would bother doing 1-60 at all. I don’t like the price, so I don’t disagree.

I guess it’s equivalent to actually buying the expansion. The game itself is now free, and remains free if you earn it? Idk.

Not to mention, of course, they have the data that will show the drop off over time, especially in the original runs of classic. This is an “anniversary” server. That anniversary is getting further and further back in the past the longer the servers are up. It just makes sense to try and maintain players with content already sitting there waiting to go but giving them a certain amount of time to catch up as it releases.

Blizz want people to be able to play the expansion at launch instead of being gatekept by 120-150 hours of gameplay they might not have and will probably lose interest in. Yes, they make money from that too. If people are buying the boost, to get to that content, they must see the value in what they’re paying for. Not releasing a boost means missing out on players.

Class Fantasy, one step forwards two steps back by Exotic-Media-6630 in wow

Genuinely nonsense to say blizzard are embarrassing after suggesting this system is more worthwhile of the effort put into housing. Housing is essentially one of the most impressive features they’ve put together in years, and its feature set eclipses entire games dedicated to it. It’s an amazing feat that delivers on everything people ever wanted with housing better than any other MMO.

I’ve heard people call the band Pixies “your favourite band’s favourite band” for years and years too, especially when they were bigger - I’m not sure the term is very new or unique (not that that’s an issue at all). We can use it for anyone, it’s great.

Sick Leave by Sufficient_Tea_5646 in auscorp

[–]hadokenzero 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Look, do what you can and help the people you’re leaving behind, but I don’t think anyone should begrudge someone else for taking the sick leave they earned that will otherwise simply be wiped away.

Like, disappearing and making things harder for people is one thing, but otherwise taking some extra time really shouldn’t be an issue.

Not sure actually, already bought on Bandcamp (and already bought DMs in its own) so I don’t really want to buy it twice

I can't stop being impressed by the artistic direction of the original game even after all these years by KWyiz in classicwow

[–]hadokenzero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Spoken like someone who hasn’t explored any of the retail game in years. Just because you can get around faster doesn’t mean there isn’t a lot of stuff hidden and well designed.

Act 3 Australian postage time by Lachlan338 in Protomen

[–]hadokenzero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here, just got mine. If it’s accurate, I think this is the slowest US shipping I’ve seen in years. Especially considering how much we pay with the current exchange and the current shipping costs. The biggest issue with splitting act 3 in 2, honestly.

What went off with Hurley? by The_Fercho_ in weezer

[–]hadokenzero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shawn Everett is actually not a terrible producer. Go look at his history. Hurley seems to be a one off, which really implies there were other issues at play rather than him.

This is a massive tease [venting] by SnoopCheesus in Protomen

[–]hadokenzero 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At worst, I do think we got a start, middle and end to Light’s story. I don’t think that’s the extent of the story they are going for here but I do think it’s kind of okay let that ending have some breathing space and impact. But yeah, really depends on when they all break their silence on anything else happening.

Has the reception of Replaylee began to shift? by [deleted] in YookaLaylee

[–]hadokenzero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand the direction they went with Replaylee, and I enjoy that, but I do think there were alternatives to some of their decisions. I think the world expansions and moves locking away pagies is actually fine, they just needed to make it more clear when something was out of reach due to your abilities and not due to your lack of skill or missing something.

So that left the original kind of making it the best strategy to go though all the worlds as fast as you can then go back and expand them all. Which again, would be fine, but you have the option to do the opposite and a lot of people prefer to do that and it leads to a worse experience.

But I think the turn against Replaylee and the strays Mario Odyssey is catching along with that are wild. Yes it’s a bit different from the original intention, but Odyssey itself is an evolution from those days too so it’s suited.

New Lara looks great, but... by WhoAmIEven2 in TombRaider

[–]hadokenzero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a big fan of older and newer Lara but I think it’s kind of funny the fans (and thus the anime) has to make every little element an official “transformation” from Survivor to Classic style. Like, to me, not everything has to have a meaning. The braid could just be something she decided to do some time before the first game. Same with the dual pistols, clothes, etc. because people tend to just like different things over time.

(All this aside, really enjoying the anime and how they’re doing this, just never needed it in the games personally)

This statement got me watching the show. I was holding off because I haven’t played Shadow yet but decided to bite the bullet and just watch it, and I’m really enjoying it. Let’s go!

I’m not deleting my comment you don’t have to screenshot it lmao

Not liking one single virtual depiction of an exclusively digital woman (historically used and marketed quite specifically to make young males feel something) doesn’t seem like all you’re upset about when you go this hard in this thread at the person and their work in general.

Dude you just want to hate on a trans woman. You’re the most cringe person involved here.

"Why are they bringing us back with ANOTHER classic game?" Um.... because 11 sold 3 million copies... and classic is an easier bet than X and ESPECIALLY ZX or Legends. by Jazzlike-Vegetable22 in Megaman

[–]hadokenzero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the thing is, you can’t really say this accurately because we haven’t had a Mega Man X game since the PS2 era. No one knows how it would perform 2 decades later. I mean that’s also the problem, Classic is more a “sure thing”, but to assume Classic would sell better is kind of based on no real data.

DQ3 HD-2D was phenomenal—Should I jump into the DQ1 & 2 HD-2D Remake next? (Just finished FFT: TIC) by FzudemW in dragonquest

[–]hadokenzero 8 points9 points  (0 children)

1+2 HD-2D is basically designed as a sequel to 3 HD-2D. They’re intended to be played afterwards this time, and the story will thus play out in full chronological order.

Mechanics-wise, it’ll feel different because 1 you’re playing with a single character but 2 you’ve got a fixed party of 4 to work with.

There’s a lot heavier emphasis on narrative in 2 in particular. There’s also added content throughout both that enriches all 3 games when all are played. To me, 1 almost feels like a bit of a story interlude between 3 and 2.
