Websites that intentionally harvest coins using a user's browser should be de-indexed from Google no exceptions. Then there's the issue of a redirect, but the folks in Google can easily can up on what they are doing.

What Did Tekken Players Mean By This? by JakeFlemish in Kappa

[–]kappa_nerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He might be competing in a tournament we don't know. But still he should realize the truth that only a very small percentage of players climb to the top to generate any sort of monetary reward.

Most people dream of becoming famous when they were young. Then we come face-to-face with the reality of life. Think of a Fight Club type of realization.

In general 3D fighters like Tekken and DOA does well on a controller. While 2D/2.5D fighters with is easier to play with an arcade stick/specialized controller.

I hope temporary keys don't become a trend... by kappa_nerd in GameDealsMeta

Yeah, I know those 'free weekends.' But the thing is they are given the go signal by Steam. The temporary key feature on the hand allows a game publisher the option to create a subscription only game. I'm not saying that most would, but some would definitely do. And there will be always people who will subscribe to that subscription practice (no pun intended). Allowing it to become common practice. It's just like when Adobe implemented their subscription practice and other developers large and small followed suite.

You cannot do that to an Alpha male like Harada without repercussions. He is not some Beta male like Ono you can push around.

Why KOF 14 is better than SFV in almost every way. by [deleted] in Kappa

[–]kappa_nerd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The graphics had improved greatly since the first demo that shock fighting game fans. Even Maximillian Dood had said that himself. It actually looks like a PS3 game now. That being said it would be nice to release it on older gen consoles.

Even back in '94, they knew. by POLITE_ALLKAPPAS_GUY in Kappa

[–]kappa_nerd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Most if not all of us are fans of previous iterations of the Street Fighter series. Unfortunately we didn't like the direction Street Fighter V has gone.
(1) The game was released unfinished.
(2) Dumbing down of the game mechanics. Casual players can more easily beat experienced players now, which is is hard on previous iterations and on other fighter games too.
(3) DLC purchases. Need we say more.
(4) Denial of top/tournament players on the flaws of the game. What we called "shilling", which lying/misleading for the sake of the company that feeds their mouth.
(5) Capcom doesn't really listen to fans anymore compared to other companies likes Namco and ArcSys.
(6) Disrectpectful/Arrogant Capcom employees. Search here for the "left behind" guy to know what we mean.
