What's happening to games in this gen is just what happened to the larger tech industry before, MBAs that pretend to be human are put in charge of a product after creators already made it successful.

Reminds me of Notch's late tirades after selling mohjang, dude was clearly bored so picked fights on twitter every week. I'm glad he's finding purpose again after deleting his account on a dare with another big game design youtuber.

More than anything, though, it’s a gut punch because it sends a message. The wrong message, really. Xbox had one major studio in Japan - no more. Xbox is making deals with third parties and independent creators, yes - it’s got something in the pipes with Hideo Kojima, for instance - but like I said, the first party is your...
You've been WAY behind on japan's opinion of PC games, it's easier now to count the games that don't receive a port than games that do, like Unicorn Overlord.

I already made an uplay account, a social club account, an origin account, an epic account, I'm tired, I'm not making a CONSOLE account, I don't have a playstation and I won't have one since I'm against everything sony is doing to asian games.
I was waiting until some sort of offline mode since I've been burned by The Crew, I don't think it's happening considering how anal they are being about a PSN account.
