Vegy is and always has been a sexy woman. Remember when Vegy kept asking what the D is like? Why has no one put a ring on Vegy finger doe?

The Admin we needed but didn't deserve, a Dark and Shining Sailor of the Bacon.

Long ago I made the joke about how the mods would mod anything about Dan super fast whereas other things very slowly. Whatever mod it was tried to argue I implied all mods were Dan Scnieder or some bs and they didn't like being called Dan despite him being innocent. Was very weird, cause the joke was saying Dan himself might have secretly been one and that he personally mods posts about him.
Man how long ago was that?

Chadley for not shutting the fuck up.

Threads like this make me think people actually wished Naruto and Bleach had more filler.

That's what I'm saying.

It's like this: The original game was what, 40 hours? More if you do everything.

Imagine it like a 300 page book. A good read you could get through in a weekend (this is just an analogy).

Now, imagine if the original writers of that book, who had a TON of scrapped ideas and side stories and other tales to tell, came back and did a NEW version of that book and added in ALL the stories they originally had planned. And elaborated on everything. So the new version of the book comes out with an appendix and it's a 1200 page epic.

People who loved that original book would probably be excited as fuck for this new book. But instead of selling it as one 1200 page volume, they split it up into three 400 page books so they're more digestible for the readers.

And it also lets them get the first part out much much sooner instead of having to wait for the whole thing. AND it makes them more money, which is obviously the whole point of all this.

This is basically what is happening here with these video games. Yes it's a story told in 3 parts. But please understand - there is WAY more events and characters and STORY here than was in the original thing. THAT'S why it's three complete "experiences". Three parts to one big story.

You can argue up and down whether the new stuff is "filler" or "bad" but to me it's not THAT different from the "canon" stuff in either scope or nature. SO I kinda don't understand some of the complaints.

Call Remake a hallway simulator if you want, that's fair. But it was still a better game than FF13 and FF15 and Rebirth is a top 5 FF of all time. And by god it's NEW. Familiar but NEW. If you don't like Rebirth then I guess you don't like FF. Or you only used to like FF and have for some reason drawn the line arbitrarily in the sand at "FF games MUST be turn-based".

In that case go buy Octopath Traveler and Bravely Default and forget FF exists.

You come off as trying to convince people to like something they don't like. For example in your book analogy just because the writers make a new book doesn't mean people will like it. Now imagine if people actually asked for something specifically and the writers said they don't want to give that but something else instead. Things get scrapped for good reasons. You would be surprised how much scrapped stuff that had they been put into books movies would have basically ruined them. There is whole documentaries showing how George Lucas was on the brink of ruining Star Wars if not for his team being smart about what to not put in it.
Perhaps a good analogy would be fans of Game of Thrones asking for a new edition of the show that doesn't stray from the books but a network makes a new show and it completely strays from the books and makes a bunch of filler. Then when fans say that they hate this people get upset saying are you complaining about more Game of Thrones?
Then again perhaps Star Wars is the place to look. We got more Star Wars. New stories. How did the fans receive it? Is Star Wars in a good place as an IP right now? Was the newest movies good for it?
What if they remade Star Wars 1970 films today and decided to change things around and make it from 3 movies in 7 movies?

Welcome back Veg-meister.

NittanyLions23 posted... I will admit that I lost my temper.

I started off, mentioning how my dad told me about the broken cart.

Then the cashier cut me off and said oh, so your dad bought it? as if to shut me down right there and I cant return it unless I purchased it.

Well, I was the one who purchased it.

So at that point, I start to get pissed off because hes just trying to brush me off.

I told him not to give me a hard time about this.

He says Im not the manager.

Then I say, all right, then go get them.

At this point, the cashier was already cussing me out.

So you threw a hissy fit and they responded in kind? You should give others more respect if you want respect yourself.
