The guy that made it is not invited to MS's Minecraft anniversary event.
Quote
“His comments and opinions do not reflect those of Microsoft or Mojang and are not representative of Minecraft,” Microsoft told Variety.

Without him you wouldn't have Minecraft you fucking dolts. You'd be stuck promoting ever more SEA OF THIEVES dlc.

Why are you so salty for him over this?

Because Microsoft has a history of trying to scrub creators from the pages of history to make it look like they didn't just buy into their success but had some part in it.
Hell, it's basically what the entire company was founded on.

"We thank him for his contribution to the ongoing success of Minecraft but he's no longer involved now." would've been a more classy response than:
“His comments and opinions do not reflect those of Microsoft or Mojang and are not representative of Minecraft,” . Also going specifically against his opinions and comments is just low.

Microsoft should buy Fez and delete Phil a Fish from existence too.

Call that shit like Derek Smart’s Fez or something.

Notch is a whiny fat guy who literally wears a fedora, who then got rich and whines about how being rich isn’t that great.

Notch is EviLore if EviLore got actually rich and hadn't got into fitness.

Definitely expanding/expanded his mind, though. Would explain some of the nonsense he spouts, too. (Starting to feel a little sad for the guy.)

Nope.

But it is well documented that he went into a sort of depression after Minecraft took off and has a history of drug abuse.
My brother used to work with a guy that went to work for Mojang before the buy-out. The golden days were pretty crazy around there.

There's a difference between acknowledging someones contribution to one of the most popular video games of all time and endorsing everything he says.

kingv · « **Reply #21611 on:** May 01, 2019, 06:13:19 PM »

Do you maybe understand why Microsoft might not want to make some cracked out fat guy who tweets about the plight of white people the figurehead for their billion dollar gaming franchise that’s popular with 8 year olds?

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #21619 on:** May 02, 2019, 02:37:58 PM »

The last original IP that Platinum's worked on that anyone cared about was Bayonetta. Just make Nier 3, u cowards.

paprikastaude · « **Reply #21620 on:** May 02, 2019, 02:48:48 PM »

You don't need Platinum for Nier, the first game is still better

tbf instead of always mixing up Bayonetta/MGR gameplay, they finally need to build upon Vanquish.

The character animation still looks super rough.

I like though how they thought the solution was to crank the anime dial to 11.

reminds me of the Rondo remake now. Not exactly great in the graphics department, but okay enough.

kingv · « **Reply #21626 on:** May 04, 2019, 10:14:32 AM »

I always felt like the gba and 3DS castlevanias has sort of generic animation too.

In that sense it remind me of the .

The art and animation are/were just very “serviceable” like there is no energy to any of the characters movements or attacks.

Still looks rough but vampires and iga so I'll play it. That fake nes game they did last year was great. If they make any more i hope they ditch the 3d and just go with something like w/e Dead Cells uses (I'm assuming unity? idk)

Went to sell the one physical game I had; Astrobot, to GameStop. Just to get cash, I had to show my ID, sign the card reader, then fill out a form with my signature, place of employment and my right thumb print. Good grief, GS, go fuck yourself.

Likely your State's law. People sell stolen goods so any consignment / pawn type place usually have to collect a ton of info per State law.

That's most likely the case... First time I've tried to sell something back to GS since moving to a new State.

I'm shocked I got $10 cash for Astrobot. How the hell have they not gone bankrupt yet? I tried to give them the PSVR demo disc too just to trash it... guy wasn't even allowed to take it and toss it in the trash behind the counter. Said they won't let them, because people come back and claim that GS stole it from the customer and so forth.

Started watching a Metal Gear Ghost Babel playthrough.... Had no idea the GBC was capable of such fluid animation. Also there's more text in the opening than the entirety of MG1/2 How could you even read this shit on such a tiny screen? How could you see anything on the radar?

because i played it when i was a teenager. fantastic game btw and worth a playthru.

They won't around for much longer. They're carrying about $800 million in debts and have been selling off parts of the company to keep creditors at bay. Changing the stores to 1/2 collectibles is a desperate last gaps to have some sort of relevancy.

I do like how easy it is to find a game store with GameStop, but man their sales just suck fat dick.

They do seem somewhat busy every time I go in though. I don’t think I’ve ever been the only customer inside.

Just bought 2 copies since it was dropped to $14.99 on Steam... realized I probably should just buy these damn Ubisoft games through UPlay though lol

Places like CD keys give you Uplay keys (which activate just like Steam's) that's usually what i do.
Especially for coop games, if i have to buy more than one copy.
