You mean Yahtzee from Zero Punctuation? =D I love that guy.
I don't get you sometimes, tho, Cardinal
I'm using his video to depict problems about the way the developers have dealt with SC2
The problems of the industry is that exactly what he addressed. Though I think he hasn't done a stellar job of wording the problems.
When he was complaining about Internet being necessary for games, one should take a step back and realize that the big problem is the corporations
trying to own and protect the game to a degree that it has started to hurt players. We all know about pirates (YARRR), and it's not good. But doing things like making it necessary to logon to b.net while using the editor is just plain bullshit.
Yeah, when there's money involved, things just hit the fan.
To say that they had to make cuts on things and then inputting facebook integration is just infuriating.
So with this, let's focus on SC as I try to debunk ur points
I disagree with #1. He's talking about the way the industry handles its customers, not who to blame. Just think of the way Blizzard's handling the die-hard fans. No chat channels @ launch, No Lan, Fuck the Korean Broadcasters. common guys...
I disagree with #2, because you misinterpreted his problem again. He's addressing the fact that the industry's milking the franchise by putting a pricetag on bits and pieces of the game that is already present. So not really a DLC. This is similar to the way that they're milking SC2 with their Trilogy gimmick. The only differences are gonna be more of the gayshit campaign, and things that
should've been in the first game.
With #3, even he asked "But can you really blame them?".. Honestly, the gamers are the ones to blame.... Echo has Final Fantasy 13 or 14.... we should burn him at a stake.
Just think about all the f'ing HYPE that sc2 has. Game of the Year? Fuck me. The BEST GAME OF THE YEAR.. with ghastly plot, mediocre voice acting, douche-bag characters, even worse douche-bag moderators, Unfinished editor, Zero community support, and Facebook integration
Honestly, even if you JUST look at the single player campaign, the game is mediocre at best.
Playing battle.net 1, and then trying b.net 2, the game is a total pile of donkey diahhrea bullfuck.
4 = ?
I agree with the console-fanboys criticism... especially xbox fanboys.... cause it's pretty much a computer with a controller.. DUUUH
I'm saying this b/c of one game that I've bought that would've been probably the BIGGEST GAME OF THE DECADE and wouldn't have slipped off into obscurity so much that they have to release a sequel coming up TOMORROW, JAN18.
Know what it is??
you guessed it! it's Little Big Planet!!!
The ONE and ONLY pitfall with LBP, and I'm serious, is that it's on the console, not the PC.
Just think about it.
All the Levels, New enemies, New textures, New skins, New character design, New level designs... everything can be SO EASILY shared on the internet. On the PSN, it's bullshit.
That game also proved to me that Popularity Systems are intrinsically flawed. Way b4 sc2 was released, I knew this already.
It's sad cause it WOULD've been my favorite game for sure. Ez editor, awesome graphics, the charm.. pure fun.... but all gone to waste.
