I watched a Let’s Play of the DmC reboot recently, and I think the remastered version looks fun enough in a b-movie way as an edgy wannabe-They Live/ anti-capitalist screed with no self awareness.

That said everything to do with the character Lilith, from design, to boss fight, to plot events is so so so so bad.

The remastered version isn't bad and removed some of the most egregious story bits. If that had been the game at launch I think it would have sold more than the 600k copies it did sell and been remembered a lot more fondly.

For fun look up how long the changelog between the two versions is.

The Giant Holo Demon Bill O’Reilly boss fight is probably one of the most original in gaming history.

Eh, without the DLC you get the later, Raidou-instead-of-Dante version instead, which is fair (especially since Raidou's better). Having Dante as DLC probably changes the kind of royalties they have to pay to Capcom, too, since now it'd only include sales of the specific DLC.

It upsets me that Watchdogs Legion's pitch seems to have evolved from "be the resistance fighting against the fascist state" to "clear the name of the resistance framed by a more evil terrorist organization". But then again I'm not gonna buy it after the recent Ubi stuff so I guess it hardly matters.

games done quick is next week and i have seen no hype about it

also i bought a year of ps now to try it out and started with puppeteer. gorgeous game but idk if the charm can carry it by itself, the jumping is a bit weird and the levels are so squished because of the framing device that they can't be too adventurous

i was thinking it might be easier either for us to ignore it or for fewer to show up since it's online-only, they don't get to have their kicks about being on camera and pulling out MAGA hats

sucks that covertmuffin retired from GDQ and running in general though :(

e: Lizstar is doing a Hypnospace Outlaw speedrun which is something that I don't think is going to be that great a watch but it will be interesting to see webpages frantically change from one to the other

i thought netflix's new video game history show "high score" was an adaptation of the video game history book "high score" but i guess they just took the title and told that author to go gently caress himself

if it was just the title that would be one thing but it's also the subject matter. it feels like someone announcing their new movie "in cold blood" about the murder of a kansas farm family and refusing to mention truman capote

The rejected payment plan included a proposed $21.37 million in total compensation for CEO Andrew Wilson in the 2020 fiscal year, up from $18.3 million in 2019. Other executives were set to see much larger bumps, including CFO Blake Jorgensen ($9.41 million in 2019 to $19.5 million in 2020) and Chief Studios Officer Laura Miele ($6.95 million to $16.1 million), and CTO Kenneth Moss ($6.95 million to $14.2 million).

I was curious about this a week ago myself and looking at the absurd amount of money that Bobby Kotick makes. Like, what the gently caress does he actually do at Activision/Blizzard? He isn't credited in any video games of theirs that I am aware of.

i'm pretty sure andrew wilson oversaw the launch of fifa ultimate team which makes ea a million bazillion dollars per second, so he's set for life

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


Wilson was the guy who introduced FIFA cards to the world. EA could lose every single other license they have and still profit $750 million a year from those things. Blame the Euros.
