Samsung can eat my dirty asshole.

Russians aren’t very smart. If they were, Pootin would be dead already.

You should watch it so you can be scarred for life like those kids are gonna be!

I can’t wait. We also just got 2 more characters- Mona Lisa and Mondo Gecko -as DLC for Shredder’s Revenge. It’s a good time to be a gaming Turtle!

Fuck Nintendo.

Fuck their cake. Eat them.

It certainly is, and it goes all the way back to at least the late 90s. I lived there from 00-03 and I saw so. many. games. do this. Granted, I was console only back then, and in Japan the number of new and used game stores is mind-blowing, so it’s not like you couldn’t trade in the old version and get at least SOME money back. Can’t do that on PC.

They don’t always do definitive editions, so should I just wait forever and never get it? Also, waiting and getting the definitive edition still tells them it sells. They don’t see why, they just see it selling. And if everyone just waits for the definitive edition, not buying the OG, they just view that as people not being interested in the game at all, so they quit making anything.

Edit: And I specifically mentioned pre-ordering because your thought process is the same as when it comes to pre-orders: if you don’t pre-order they’ll stop releasing unfinished garbage. That does not work here.

This has nothing to do with pre-ordering. I don’t pre-order and I usually can’t afford to get things right when they come out, unless they release on sale. They keep doing this because: 1. Dumb fucks buying it when they already have the og edition because of FOMO on the few things that were added. 2. People that hadn’t bought the game yet so they buy the newer “definitive” edition.

Most other games that end up with a GOTY edition usually include all the content that was originally dlc, and can be “upgraded” to, usually for less than all of it did originally. And you don’t have to redo achievements.

The thing with DQ is that there is no dlc. They just add some collectible or a couple of quests to flesh out where a character disappeared to or something. It’s not enough content to even qualify as possible dlc. And there’s no “upgrade” pricing.

So the only way to “stop this” is to do what I’ve already been doing— not buying it twice. But that doesn’t actually stop them.

I’m an idiot— even though I know my Roman Numerals, I wrote IX when I meant XI (Echos of an Elusive Age). I don’t know what the “definitive” edition looks like, as I already own the OG and refuse to pay for another copy and have to get all the achievements all over again. The OG looks great to me, and I can’t even use max graphic settings. I can only imagine how good it looks on max. If I’m understanding you correctly, the “definitive” edition looks worse? They can seriously go fuck a cactus. It’s already not worth paying full price twice just to get some tidbits that aren’t even tied to achievements. Japan puts out some amazing games. Classics. Industry changing innovations. But their decisions to do shit like that, as well as how they abandon their games after only a few bug fixes (that still don’t fix many of the major bugs) has all but turned me off of games from the country that’s known for video games.

Great! Now can we finally get bug fixes and optimization? Maybe some dlc now that Shadow of the Erdtree is well settled? Oh that’s right…Japanese game companies don’t support their games once they’ve decided it’s “released”. (See: Bandai-Namco, Capcom, Konami, et al.)

Edit: You bitches wanna downvote me for telling the truth? Japan doesn’t fucking support their games after a few patches. Don’t believe me? The boost gauge bug still exists for a lot players. You want others? Go look at reviews for the Mega Man collections and how they are broken. Oh, and there’s the fact that the bug reporting on Bandi-Namco’s on site doesn’t even fucking work.

I thought XI did the silent protagonist really well, and it’s my all-time favorite in the series. What I really want is for them to stop releasing the game and then 6 months to a year later re-releasing a “definitive edition” with a few extras, a full-price pice tag, and no way to “upgrade”. Fuck you. I bought the game once. I’m not shelling out full price for a couple of extra tidbits. Either release the full game the first time or eat shit.

Incorrect. The game is Once Human. The studio that made it is Starry Studio.

COWABUNGA!

The animated video makes it even better.

I am trying to shop around for a new gaming laptop, but I’m having a hard time finding something that is Linux friendly and has AMD CPU and GPU, and is of the highest end possible so I don’t have to upgrade it in a year (and if it’s expandable, even better). I’ve looked at the Framework, and before you spout off about how great it is: have you actually owned one? I’m finding more and more that they are flimsy and just aren’t quite “there” yet, but I hope that changes soon because the concept is what we need in laptops. Anyway, I can’t seem to find anything on the higher end that has both CPU and GPU from AMD. If anyone has a link, feel free to drop it.

This games title and logo make me think it’s about taking a nap. I think I’ll sleep on this one.

zZz…

Because there’s more money to be made by releasing HD remakes that they charge you out the nose for.

Performance is the only issue I have with the DLC. I keep getting this flashing thing that happens for like a single frame or two. It looks like what happens when your graphics card is dying, but the only time it happens is when I’m playing Elden Ring. It never happens any other time, and I play other, much more graphically and memory intensive games than this with zero issue. I’ve tried turning down settings, but it persists. It does seem to do it less the longer I play, but with every new startup of the game, it does it often then less over time. It might be that I’m still on an HDD and not SSD, but I’m not replacing it because I’m looking to replace my whole machine sometime in the near future.
