Funny how nobody bitched about Microsoft putting exclusives on their shitty window's store. Even though that store is worse than Epic's.
I recall doing an adequate amount of bitching about Microsoft's store, for exactly the reason you mentioned.

I assume the only reason why the Xbox store is tolerated these days, is simply because of how good of a deal gamepass is.

I think i will try the Kingdom hearts series. I hope it is not too dated.
A bit, combat is very simplistic even on higher difficulty. But the games are charming and, at least for the first one, the story and character are fun in a very PG way. Plus lots of disney/final fantasy fan service if you like those.

I think the distaste was different.

People actively were upset about Epic buying up exclusivity rights to titles they wanted. While people just though the Microsoft store sucked. Which are dramatically different things.

Frankly a store front need to entice people to shop there. Every store does it, either with deals, or with exclusive products. End of story.
Epic's so desperate to entice me to spend money that it's looped back round to helping me spend very little money on games; it's basically a glorified free games pipeline that tides me over between Steam sales.

Well, if you wanted to play MS exclusives, like Forza, Halo Wars, or Gears of War, you had to do it through the Xbox store.

Happily, they have relaxed on that now, and MS titles coming to Steam, but as someone who is much more invested (for some reason, god help me) in Xbox exclusive games, being required to buy games through the shitty Xbox store was much more frustrating that needing to buy a game on the Epic store, which is at the very least, functional.

I guess it depends on what games you actually want to play.

I'd still rather everything was on Steam, though.

Hey that's just fine, because at the end of the day you have a bunch of free games and Epic has a user in its ecosystem. Eventually your library will be big enough that you might buy games directly from Epic when they come out. Which is the point, I think.

There is nothing wrong with having a preferred store. I like going to Walmart over Target, that doesn't mean i think Target is the devil.

Same goes for the Epic V Steam tale. They can both exist and you can use what you want, and if your platform doesn't get a game then you either have to wait or just buy it from Epic. Walmart doesn't get mad at you because you bought a TV from Best Buy.

Where is the ire towards GoG or Humblebundle or Greenmangaming?

Don't tell him about the nudity and sex scenes in the Witcher games. His mind will explode out the back of his head and he will suddenly find himself unable to resist touching the "DEVILS STICK!"
If you are gonna mock me about how puritan I am, don't. I just have more restraint than the weebs who buy games like Huniepop and whatever porn game from the Steam storefront. I prefer more mature takes on sexualized content and not being treated like second class citizens over what comes to the PC storefronts.

The first one is about how many days was Roxas part of Org XIII and story of him and Xion

Birth By Sleep is a spoiler for the ending where Sora was "born" through Ventus' dreams

Plus Nomura loved his Computer Linguo inside jokes if you abbreviate the words.



Oh I am sorry, I meant to describe weebs who dig shit like Gal Gun and whatever comes out of steam in hopes it won't get rejected, not mainstream Japanese games people hoped to secure and legal channels that isn't the EGS.

But feel free to call me an elitist, I relish in the fact I am not treating all Japanese content as equal and gladly trample on you with horse.
I never say you had to treat all Japanese media equally, I'm just saying don't be a dick about it. If you like or dislike something it's fine, is the arrogant I'm better than everyone else attitude for liking or disliking something I have a problem with. And many of us on this thread, share the same opinion about that. It doesn't make you strong; if anything it shows how miserable you are. I don't like all anime games either, but I don't feel the need to insult people for liking what I don't. I've already discussed this with you about over a dozen times already. Either learn or don't. Otherwise, expect the same results from last time when you go on one of these tirades that have nothing to do with anything.

Isn't Huniepop the porn pimping game?
That's HunieCam Studio, where the player pimps camwhores.
The HuniePop games are basically porny dating sims with the same stable of waifus.
Either way gameplay always boils down to matching tiles and some menial management.

Sales, how skeevy the location/storefront is, would you live in a neighbourhood surrounded by junkies and homeless? Porn Games are the Nimby of AAA devs who thinks they hold all the cards.
You're delusional if you think your neighbourhood is free of either of those things.

Ah, my apologies Your Majesty.

Spot on.

If you simply stated your stance as "I don't like this type of game" now and in the past and left it at that you'd be fine and free from mockery. But it's the fact that you are on a high horse, nose tilted up at the peasants down below having their fun, and talking bout being treated as a "second class citizen" over it... because you're angry that, *gasp*, the Weeeeebs (!!!) are invading storefronts... that's what makes people give you shit over it.

Your high and mighty attitude towards people having their own kind of fun that doesn't meet your approval is ridiculous and unwelcome

Mhm, mhm mhm. I am totally convinced because its not like you can't set it so those don't show up on the steam store, infact to see them you have to turn off the adult game filter.

Gotcha! I knew there was a reason I thought it was a pimping game

I 'member completing this. I think. But having absolutely no idea what the drek they would not stop waffling about. It felt like the strains of a writer with absolutely no substance trying to justify some dumbass crossovers for kids, mistaking complexity for depth at every opportunity. Smash Bros Brawl Subspace emissary cutscenes kept everything to visual craziness, which would've been better. Luckily the gameplay, ship building and cross-overs are fun at least. Basically, you're not missing that much? I think? My opinions cannot be trusted however. They frequently entwine with cannibalism and various other deviancies. So...

Nimbyism doesn't respect blocks and filters, try living in the Pacific Northwest city and "ignore" the Junkies and Homeless in the streets of Downtown. I don't live in an ivory tower where nothing goes wrong, but EGS is promising that ivory tower for devs everywhere.

So your comparing porn games you don’t like, to the complex social, economic and medical issues that underlay addiction and homelessness?

.......You sanctimonious fucking bastard.

My point is, EGS doesn't allow porn games on their storefront while Steam does. And what is more attractive as a storefront to companies like Disney and Square Enix if both storefront offered money for exclusivity?

Welp, you fail at logic forever. Good night everybody!

You do both realize that most of the "weebs" could not give a million shits about your opinions. Maybe. if you stir the hornet's at 4 or 8chan, but none of you have the balls to do that and be in their faces. Just shows how shallow of a person you are, if you need to bully or look down others to make yourself feel happy. I ain't the biggest fans of weaboos either, but I am not going to let them rule my life.
