No, what was scummy as fuck was the previous system of releasing a full priced game, adding four new fighters, and releasing an entirely new full priced game. What we currently have is much, much better. Why would you apparently want to return to that over being able to add them via DLC? Why would we want to return to fifty versions of Street Fighter 2, over just being able to choose to buy new fighters individually? Unless you're going to say new characters simply... Shouldn't be added at all, and people should just have to wait 3-4 years until the next game comes out?

EDIT: And before you say it, no, "Just add new characters and support the game for five years entirely for free" is not an option, because that's literally saying the devs should do work for you for free.

You really don't get it. It is their business model to stagger completing projects with when they are released. They aren't postponing releasing content out of necessity. Releasing them late is the plan. They have the same amount of time to work regardless if they choose to milk more money from older games instead of working on the next game. The amount of content they can make is the same; they just found a way to scam people.

Lemon. How the fuck do you not include lemon?

Yes, it does, because if you bought the game, then you deemed it a full enough game to warrant your purchase. If it wasn't enough, then why did you buy it?

"Full enough" doesn't even make sense. A game is either full or not. If you don't have access to all the fighters in a fighting game, you don't have the full game. You bought it because you want the new Street Fighter or whatever. Selling a fighting game for $70 and charging extra for literal fighters is scummy as fuck.

The Tweet in the topic post is dumb, but I'll also never understand this mindset, either.

Take a fighting game, for example. If they advertised 30 characters, and I bought the game because 30 characters was enough for me, cool. The game is complete, since they gave me everything they advertised that they'd give me before I spent my money. If they then add more characters later on as DLC, that doesn't mean the game is now suddenly "incomplete," because I had already decided what I was getting initially was worth the money I paid initially. They don't owe me anything more for free. It'd be nice if they give it, but they certainly don't owe it to me, because I deemed what they offered initially to be enough value.

Advertising a fraction of a game as a full game, doesn't make it so.

People don't appreciate art. You should maybe focus less on the AAA market. It died long ago with very rare exceptions.

I just image searched him, and he doesn't look familiar even though I'm pretty sure I've seen every AVGN episode.

If a game retails for $70, all dlc going forward should be free. If a developer isn't finished with their game when they put it up for sale, it shouldn't cost full price.

I remember buying a map pack for Resistance Fall of Man. If I only knew what the future entailed.

Trump is so far beyond worse than a common murderer. It can't be overstated.

Don't know who that is; so, no.

Unless there are no other options, killing a whale is no better than murder. Same for elephants and at least some great apes like orangutans.

It's a shitty website that is actively being made shittier. Video sharing simply is not the site's function. Ever since they stopped trying to block people who use ad blockers, streams (for me) always freeze very soon after I click them. Then it's fine after I refresh the page. (firefox + ublock)

All art borrows from a plethora of influences. It's always been justifiable. Whether or not the result is interesting is a separate question, and ai art is currently really bad.

Classic rock is boring. Janis Joplin is the only white artist to make good rock music (outside of the avantgarde) before punk came along.

Janis Joplin couldn't sing worth shit, and people only liked her because she was a cute hippie. Buskers on the street corner have better singing voices than her in modern times.

You're either tone deaf, or an emotionless robot.

Children could be browsing Twitter and come across it. Was more about having a filter in general.

Ah. I have no idea what the twitter interface is like.

Probably because they're working full time, and can't afford rent+bills+food.

If it were enough you wouldn't be asking.

Wish I didn't go on Twitter. Saw several dead bodies and one video where they were shooting people at close range. Was just trying to find out updated death toll and if it was over but got death videos without warning.

Better to see it than not. Words can only capture so much.

I hate when killers say that. The Doomsday Mom said that too. That her kids forgive her ( who she murdered)

That line seems like a euphemism for "I don't feel remorse".

Gross. Remakes are dumb. Remakes of good games are even dumber.

I don't ever see them, but I block pretty much any channel with dumb face thumbnails that show up in my feed. Nobody who's concerned about an algorithm enough to pose for dumb face photos for their thumbnail is making honest content.

Also you forgot to post pictures.
