Major difference between unfinished game and just adding constant free content to keep players interested bro. Dying Light was feature complete upon release they just keep adding stuff even though they don't have to. Unlike you I am actually grateful.
@nessisonett
I don't necessarily mean adapt the games plot verbatim but tell new stories in that universe. Make it episodic, the audience and the foundation are already there. People have been begging for an actual Blood Dragon sequel for 10 years now.
Why wouldn't you just do an straight forward animated adaption of Far Cry Blood Dragon? The audience is already there. I just look at this and am just...confused.
If I was heading a triple A developer I would put vague s--t like this in our game with no actual meaning behind it just to drive 4Chan and Reddit insane.

Obiwan and Yoda were never the only two jedi left, there was many known other survivors in canon (both legends and Disney) including Ashoka Tano, Caleb Dune, Taron Malicos, Cere Junda, etc. Yes some of them died in the roughly 20 year span between episodes 3 and 4 but at no point were those two the only survivors in any canon.
@Kogorn733
It's one of those "play with your friends or stream on Twitch'' type of games where you can laugh and have fun just embracing the madness on screen. Think Octodad, Goat Simulator, I Am Bread, etc.
Not for everyone but it has it's audience.
@TrickyDicky99 There are plenty of good FPS games out there. Saying you hate all FPS games because of COD is like saying you hate all pizza after eating a soggy slice at a crappy hole in the wall hangout.
@Atreus97
Critiquing some performance issues even if it affects a relatively small chunk of the game is still perfectly valid criticism. It still has a negative effect on the experience. When you factor in a 20 plus hour long game, that 5 percent still adds up
Can't get enough of 90s FPS games coming to console. Already have this downloaded on the Switch and will buy and download on my PS5 when I get back from my overseas trip
Countless games, especially ones prior to the 2000s just straight up have their source codes gone forever. Diablo, Final Fantasy 8, Blood, etc. are just a few famous examples. Much like movies prior to the 1930s people weren't all that fussed about preserving media.
@TheCollector316
I ain't paying for a crappy streaming service for one season of a show that I would just burn through in two days. Either I get a free trial, use a VPN to watch it on HBO in what my geolocation thinks is a random European country or just pirate it.
@Enuo Still don't have much faith in the Horizon adaption though especially with it being on Netflix, alongside it being live action which was a horrible idea because good luck doing that on a TV budget.
Whether I have to watch it through a VPN or sail the high seas I'll give it a watch eventually. Looks like a fun enough diversion to burn through in a weekend.

Mental illness has nothing to do with intellect unless it's specifically an intellectual disability. Not sure how you even got the two associated. He can be a brilliant programmer/hacker while suffering from a warped sense of reality due to mental illness. Look at Terry Davis for just one example of that.
@AldusRavencorn
The Division games are one of my go to examples of how open world games that focus on quality over quantity are superior. None of the worlds in those games are very big but every single inch of them is always packed to the brim with detail and love. Which makes it that much more immersive.
@Umno Whether it's an American or European court, my points all still stand. Pretty much every western nation has high standards for someone to be deemed incompetent to stand trial.
@WolfyTn
Yes because a company taking their time to make something justifies them being hacked, having assets held for ransom and having their hard work leaked in a state that was by no means ready to be publicly shown. Real 300 IQ take there. Not at all reeking of entitlement
@nessisonett I never said that was any better of a place for him I am just saying no company wanting to touch that with a 100 foot pole is understandable.
@nessisonett
The problem with that idea is you could be playing with fire. For starters you got a kid who very clearly has a serious mental illness if he has been deemed incompetent to stand trial. Usually it's not a problem to give employment to someone suffering a mental illness as most cases they are perfectly harmless but with this kid he has done a lot of damage already and is mentally disturbed (it takes a lot to be deemed incompetent in a U.S court). I really doubt any company would ever want to give cybersecurity privileges to him in any capacity and I don't blame them.
@Nepp67
There's a lot more that goes into being deemed incompetent to stand trial that just random comments one would say. They have to first off determine whether you are even aware of your own actions or at the very least aware of the consequences of your actions. Which is interesting that they determined he's not considering it takes a lot of work to hack several major companies. Whether or not they are going to determine he is now competent to stand trial after counseling we will have to wait and see.
@StrawberryTurtle
He also wrote the script 8 years ago and there's no telling how much was changed since then. So this is probably a precaution more than anything else.

The twin snakes is considered controversial among the MGS community due to changes it made to the narrative and the gameplay. I personally don't mind it but most people seem to prefer the original and it's still one of the few mainline MGS games that isn't widely available still on console so Konami likely wanted to appease the fans that way.
"First released on the NES" Um no guys, Metal Gear released on the MSX2, It got ported to the NES a year later. The version of Metal Gear that will be in Vol 1 will be the original MSX version and not the crappy NES version.
@Nepp67 Most people went in expecting it to be a traditional shooter when it very much is not nor was it ever intended to be. It's a first person adventure title with a heavy puzzle focus. Think something along the lines of Amnesia or Penumbra. Not every first person game where you happen to at some point have a weapon in front of you would qualify as an FPS.
@Mad001 How in the actual hell is 5 not Metal Gear? It had the most in depth and refined gameplay of the entire series and even the goofy s--t that makes a Metal Gear game was there fully intact.
@Beerheadgamer82 Microsoft is yet another example of just because you are huge or even the market leader doesn't mean you have quality control, look at 90 percent of what comes out of Netflix, and the 10 percent that's actually good gets canned after 1 or 2 seasons.
@Savage_Joe Yes how dare Metal Gear fans had to get a PS2 to play MGS 2 after playing MGS1 on the PS1. This totally isn't how console generations have always worked.
