Topic | Some people are pissed at the fact the Mario Odyssey bundle is not a discount. |
Jeff AKA Snoopy 10/29/17 12:27:51 PM #1 | I work at a local mom and pop game store in my city. We got in the new Switch bundle with Mario Odyssey. The bundle comes with the system with Mario Red Joycons, Mario Odyssey, and a Carrying Case for 500 (Canadian, woo) This price is basically what you would pay if you bought all these things separately, in a nice package. The red Joycons seem to be exclusive to this model, as well as the carrying case. All people have been saying so far is how Nintendo is screwing everyone over because, and I quote, "It's a bundle. Why are they charging that much for a bundle? Nintendo is screwing us" They are charging regular retail price? It's not like they are charging EXTRA for the damn thing, they are charging what you would pay for all parts, with exclusive stuff in it. Far be it for me to defend a lot of Nintendo's practices, like barring content behind Amiibo... but... really? This is how Nintendo is screwing you over? --- |

Jeff AKA Snoopy 10/29/17 12:19:47 PM #3 | I guess she wanted to win those matches? I don't get it. They don't release on that whole Emmalina shit, and now when they are actually using her on a weekly basis and she's getting big spots, she wants out? Maybe she heard that (rightly) she wouldn't be getting a run with the title and decided to split? --- |

Topic | What are some critically acclaimed video games that were actually terrible? |
Jeff AKA Snoopy 10/27/17 1:14:08 AM #15 | This is such a stupid fucking topic. List any critically acclaimed game and someone out there will dislike it. I don't like Mario 64. I think it's stupid, controls poorly, and only about a 1/3rd of the levels are actually fun in the least. My personal opinion doesn't change the fact it revolutionized 3D platformers and was a stunning game for many. --- |

Jeff AKA Snoopy 10/25/17 11:12:00 PM #6 | masticatingman posted... Godnorgosh posted...and the Wii U was just bad I don't believe the exclusives it had really holds a candle to the PS3. It had I'd say maybe a dozen GREAT titles that you needed the system to have, but then.... what? Arguably you could say the best option was to have a strong PC and a Wii-U, but if that wasn't an option, to have the most amount of games to play that were worth it, you definitely were not going to need a Wii-U. It wasn't a bad system, just didn't have enough on it to make it a worthy successor to something like the Gamecube. --- |

Topic | Why do conservatives seem so racist? |
Jeff AKA Snoopy 10/25/17 11:03:40 PM #58 | Because Conservatives believe in the concept of negative freedom as opposed to positive freedom. Negative Freedom - Freedom is you being left alone. The only job a government should take on is to make sure you are left the fuck alone and nobody takes away your rights. It's a minimalist point of view, that people should be left alone for the most part. Conservatives tend to believe in this freedom, and that anything more than that is a waste of money and encroaches against freedom. Positive Freedom - Freedom is the ability to be given the same opportunities as everyone else. Freedom means nothing if you aren't given the opportunity to actually make use of it, that some start off the "rat race" ahead of others due to basically luck. People who believe in positive freedom (typically liberals) tend to think the job of the government is to even the odds for everyone, give everyone a chance at the same lifestyle as everyone else. These fundamental concepts are a major part of the ideological differences that exist between the two major political views in the United States. Also, the US was founded on the whole principle of not trusting government, so a lot of people just will never trust the government enough to let them have any modicum of control over things. --- |

Topic | What is the worst main series Pokemon game? |
Jeff AKA Snoopy 10/20/17 12:16:21 PM #1 | Lots of discussion always about the best, but what was the worst? I personally didn't like Gen 3. I loved some of the Pokemon they introduced, but I always felt like the leaders, general story, and the world lacked something. Also didn't like the competitive scene then, and that was really the only time I DIDN'T like the competitive scene. --- |

Jeff AKA Snoopy 10/12/17 12:14:38 AM #13 | Gunvalkyrie2 posted... Do people find Mario funny? Inciteful? What's the appeal? Mario is not about character, it's about game mechanics being basically the pinnacle of 2D platformers for well over a decade. Zelda is great at world building and telling an interesting story about that world. While each character represented is basically a cliche archetype, the world is interesting, and usually the villain is pretty interesting as well. --- |

Then again, I think Mario 64 is probably one of the most over-rated games on the fucking planet. It's floaty, it's old, it only has maybe 3-4 levels I actually really enjoy playing, they're just massive collect-a-thons that reuse levels over and over again... meh. I tend to hate all the collec-a-thon 3D platformers though. Give me Mario 3/SMW any day of the week. --- |
Topic | Assuming loot boxes don't "go away", how do you fix the system? |
Jeff AKA Snoopy 10/11/17 9:11:53 PM #11 | Duncanwii posted... I'm sorry I'm a little behind, what is a loot box? Loot box is basically a system set up by game developers to randomize loot you get while playing games, but rather than it being through regular gameplay, you "earn currency" to open up a box which contains random loot. You can typically use real money to just buy these boxes instead of playing the game to earn it. In some cases (Shadow of War), they have specific items that are locked in loot boxes you can ONLY buy with real money, as opposed to earning the currency through gameplay. --- |

Topic | Assuming loot boxes don't "go away", how do you fix the system? |
Jeff AKA Snoopy 10/11/17 8:30:05 PM #1 | I think there are 4 things to do to "fix" the problems with Loot Boxes. 1. Nothing that you can get in that loot box cannot be purchased with that same currency. Even if it is at a higher amount of coins, that's just how it is. For example, if a "loot box" is worth 100 Currency, a legendary item will be priced at like, 1000 currency. 2. Stuff that you don't want from the currency must be allowed to be "discarded" to get some of the currency back. Even if it is only like, 5 currency... if I don't want that item, gimme something for it. 3. None of the items available will give people unfair advantages in multiplayer. I don't want a loot box drop to make you suddenly go from 60DPS against people to 120DPS. Things that alter stats should be earned via gameplay. LOOT BOXES ARE ONLY FOR DECORATIVE ITEMS/SKINS IN MULTIPLAYER SETTINGS! SINGLE PLAYER THAT IS DIFFERENT 4. No loot boxes are reserved for people spending real money. People can spend money to get loot boxes, but that does not alter their chances to get anything, just the amount of chances they get. --- |

Jeff AKA Snoopy 10/09/17 11:38:18 PM #118 | So, trust DLC and Expansions to groups that have proven to do it well, and just don't waste your money on other companies? I'm a smart consumer, I don't need to be "protected" from companies I don't trust by removing their ability to do whatever they want with their game. If someone wants to spend a bunch of cash on COD Infinite Warfare to get MWR without realizing MWR would EVENTUALLY get a solo release are stupid, gullible, and being "taken advantage of". Do whatever you want with a game. If it's egregious enough that I no longer want your product, you've lost my money. But, if they are going to make MORE money doing something that more people like (or tolerate), then it's a smart business decision. --- |
