    Jimquisition: It's Not A Video Game!

    I would call them games, but would definitely add a description before it to clarify how it differs from the failure state, do something other than walk around standard. We already do this, online only, multiplayer. The answer would be to find the appropiate word. This helps the customer. I...

    Jimquisition: Rise Of The Exclusivity Wars

    Timed Exclusive stuff is a incredibly stupid practice: A. It confuses and divides the fans of the game. B. It confuses casual consumers. C. It's a waste of money for the company looking to "add" value. (If Microsoft wanted to actually give value they would put a let's say, Halo or Gears of...

    Jimquisition: Batman Is Everything Wrong With Square Enix

    Funny because Nomura actually made Lulu from FFX to have a skirt of belts to challenge the modelers/desginers. On the other side, pretty much all the iconic characters Jim mentioned were simple and Japanese.

    Jimquisition: Batman Is Everything Wrong With Square Enix

    The thing is while many could criticize Japan for having extreme designs and characters and overcompensating I actually think it's their attempt to appeal to Western audiences. Other popular Japanese characters are Godzilla and Astro Boy and they are also simple and iconic. I think Nomura...

    Jimquisition: The Xbox One: A Lying Failure Machine

    The thing is, the Xbox One and PS4 audience is the one most willing to join gaming sites, read the news, etc. The Wii U and 3DS is more of a niche and Nintendo games do tend to attract younger audiences who won't join gaming sites and read the news. As for PC gaming... I guess they already have...

    Jimquisition: EA & Ubisoft: A Cycle of Perpetration and Apology

    Video Game creators do care about making a good game for sure but remember all the Executive Meddling that occurs in the industry or sometimes we just get a case like Duke Nukem Forever or Tim Schafer where the director is a perfectionist or sometimes the game has to be rushed for various...

    Jimquisition: EA & Ubisoft: A Cycle of Perpetration and Apology

    Well Nintendo also apologized for the initial 3DS launch, gave a price cut and gave early adopters 10 free games which was nice of them and they recovered magnificently from their shitty launch so kudos for them, let's hope they do something similar with their console. Also, nice pooch Jim.

    Jimquisition: How To Sell Games Without Being A Lying Dick

    The worst thing is that the stupid pre-rendered trailers/unrepresentative gameplay tactic has worked to great success in the past. Would Dead Island and Watch Dogs have even gotten half the sales they did if it wasn't for that tragic pre-rendered trailer and that E3 2012 "gameplay" demonstration?

    Jimquisition: Diversity? LIEversity!

    The excuses they use are so flimsy... I can come up with a better one: "The main character can only be a white, male because Xaspect of the plot wouldn't make sense otherwise" or the lore justifies that decision. For the Social Justice Warrior thing, the episode wasn't really about that only...

    Characters love for whom you don't understand

    It's easy to understnad why people like Kamina... he's loud and proud, he's inspiring, he has a Katana, he comes up with crazy plans. You may not like those traits, but it's easy and understandable to see why others might. Jotaro is popular mostly because: a. Protagonist in part where Stands...

    Characters love for whom you don't understand

    Oh, I was gonna say Chie but you jumped the gun. For the fog thing I guess that's a unfortunate carryover from Persona 3 were the full moon marked boss time. the problem with Chie is that she's a tomboy who eats meat and was jealous of Yukiko... but, does she have a family? What is she planning...

    Jimquisition: The FarCry Racism Adventure

    Both "not all men" and "not all feminists are like that" are constantly used in a mocking sense at pretty much the same rate.

    Jimquisition: The FarCry Racism Adventure

    This attitude is what pushes me from most online communities, communities like /v/ will jump at any new information to hate the game because it could potentially cater to casuals and X type of person they hate. More Tumblr-type Social Justice sites will jump the first chance they gate to...

    Jimquisition: The FarCry Racism Adventure

    I am astounded some people jumped to the same conclusion. Still the only effect this thing will have is higher sales because I am guessing the great majority of the people hearing this news don't think the cover is racist, kind of how Dragon's Crown promoted itself through that Kotaku "piece"...
