Holy shit, how the fuck did Konami get this bad? Why hasn't this information been publicly exposed to shame the shit out of them until now, if it's been so supposedly widely available?
Because they didn't give a shit, so others didn't give one for them.

Because spiritual successors from devs separated from their home company seems to be the fad right now, Koiji Igarashi is doing new!Castlevania.

Honestly, I can't complain about how these devs are making all these spiritual successors. Gives new people a chance to understand what made the original games so great while giving the successors a chance to become franchises. That's always a hit and miss thing, but hey.

I'm not watching ten minute videos of Jumbo providing commentary that likely could be summarized in a few paragraphs after removing his soap-boxing.

I can only stand him in spurts, but I'm willing to bet it's the season pass nonsense with Arkham.

Having watched the whole thing, I can say he also briefely brought up MK10 and Shadow of Mordor too - presumably because of the easy fatality microtransactions on the former and the absolutely draconian youtube coverage agreements on the latter that he's already covered in the past. Besides that, Ekoi was pretty much on the money. I admittedly like Jim but even I have to admit that was a pretty crap episode. Most of the time when he harps on against a specific publisher it's to make a point about the industry at large - this felt more like he was hating on WB just because he hadn't dedicated a Jimquisition to it yet.

Also it's pretty hard to take the moniker "as bad as EA" seriously when none of these companies buy up better developers for the explicit purpose of turning them transparently into patsies for the spurts of bullshit they deliberately ask them to do. There literally isn't a single gathering of scum worse than that in the entire industry short of freemium economies on phones.

EDIT: Also, you know what, can we just get a Jimquisition thread? We post his videos often enough that I think it warrants it.

Too simple and too off character of animation for me to fully trust that. Too many errors in animation make me think it's a hoax.

It's really awkward.


I'm also reminded of the skyrim mod for it.

I was going to reply that it was marked as internal and could be written off as work in progress, but the leaker actually did more or less come out and state it's a hoax, so nevermind then. >w>;

In other news, Witcher 3 got hit by the Watch_Dogs hammer.

That one thing I dislike about trailers these days: they're built using every asset the game engine has to offer, so the developers are essentially making a CGi movie. Once they start allocating engine assets to actual gameplay, though, it makes the original trailers look like big fat lies in comparison.

The game doesn't look bad now, granted, but it still comes off as dishonest.

That's what I like about the Hyrule Warriors reveal - it was immediately playable in its native engine and hardware from the get-go, so Nintendo had nothing really to hide. And the visuals, if anything, got better over time for it because of the time they'd spent polishing and refining it since.

The sad thing is dishonesty is really nothing new for a trade show like E3, and this shit is going to keep happening as long as people are gullible enough to keep falling for it.
