I pre-ordered Great Ace Attorney because I'm an AA mark, it was a collection of games that had already come out and proven their quality, and I wanted to ensure I got a physical copy.

I think pre-ordering games that have already come out in other regions and been received positively is different from preordering games that haven’t been widely played yet. I almost never preorder anymore but I’ll sometimes do it if a game’s already been out in Japan for a while.

I didn't really like the mission-based structure of the game or how split-up the environments felt but I suppose those were compromises for the handheld platform

tbh the modal choice probably isn't the most accurate in this situation. If there's a bunch of weird choices, but people tend not to use all of them, the mode for each one will be to not have the weird thing.

no the baldur's gate 3 devs are really dumb for calculating the average character creation choices and expecting it to be anything beyond a bland generic nobody.

That's not new, AAA games are heavily instrumented to, among other things, inform balance tweaks (this is how devs know for sure that e.g. a weapon is overperforming and needs to be nerfed). Plus if it's any kind of online game your save is probably already on their server anyway

The hilarious part is most analytics usually show people just go with the defaults, but in BG3 the default is a half-elf.

The true surprise is people not switching to Fighter as well for true basicism.

drat, I hope Volition survives this.

Wonder who’s to blame. Nordic, the budget, just bad management?

I'm almost positive I remember reading about Volition, between resignations and massive layoffs, having a massive talent drain after Gat Out of Hell and especially Agents of Mayhem sold like poo poo. I don't anyone who worked on SR 2, 3 or 4 is still with the company anymore.

It's a classic tale of bad data analysis. The devs see everybody max out the sliders and assume that means everybody likes big breasts, instead of realizing that it actually means the slider doesn't go far enough.

I remember having the flu in 2011, and playing SR2 through a fever haze. It was surreal. I could be won over by a game also feeling like a fever dream.
