    Sonic The Hedgehog - Official Trailer

    That's a nice video with a pretty good quick and dirty overview of the process, and I love the VR format as well. He's mostly right but does sort of gloss over some of the difficulties and finer details (which is understandable given the length of the video but a bit misleading.) They'll of...

    Sonic The Hedgehog - Official Trailer

    It's just utterly unappealing to look at. That plus the writing and the entire premise and not to mention the music choice. What was anyone thinking working on this?

    Star Wars Episode IX The Rise of Skywalker

    While certain reveals in this trailer are intriguing, I am very skeptical of whatever new twists they're introducing so late in the game because they'll have to set it up and then deal with it within the same movie. They missed their chance in TLJ for an "I am your father" moment and if they try...

    Article: "An Easy Mode Has Never Ruined A Game"

    This is just one of those fundamental things we disagree about. You're clearly a fan of the series so I don't think I'll change your mind on this. You've also willfully ignored many of my arguments as you continue to repeat things I have already responded to so I don't see the point in...

    Article: "An Easy Mode Has Never Ruined A Game"

    Mostly numbers. Using Sekiro as an example: add to the number of times you can revive, reduce the penalty for reviving, reduce enemy stance meter, boost player stance meter, etc. You could also widen timing windows or add more checkpoints, though those would probably take more effort to...

    Article: "An Easy Mode Has Never Ruined A Game"

    This is true and not something I would expect them to change. The request is simply to fudge some numbers like player health or timing windows to be more forgiving. It might be more possible for someone to look up where to go or buy a guide with a map than to execute a perfectly timed roll.

    Article: "An Easy Mode Has Never Ruined A Game"

    It's perhaps selling FromSoftware games a little short to claim that they would be otherwise unremarkable but for one extremely specific aspect. That not just the difficulty but the lack of choice on the difficulty is what made them popular at all. Accessibility settings would not change the...

    Article: "An Easy Mode Has Never Ruined A Game"

    I don't understand this view at all. Maybe from a standpoint that it requires developer hours to implement, but so do subtitles and people don't seem to be so against that. If it's optional, why not just ignore it? I appreciate games that are difficult for difficult sake. I've been playing...

    Article: "An Easy Mode Has Never Ruined A Game"

    As I mentioned in the part of my post that you that you quoted, "something like a special controller will not always be useful in this situation." I have a friend who has a developmental disorder who loves the Zelda series and wants to play them himself, but cannot progress even though he can...

    Article: "An Easy Mode Has Never Ruined A Game"

    I wouldn't argue for any kind of easy setting for an online game because that would just be exploited. That said, I've never been a fan of the concept of locking content behind a hard mode. It's less of an issue now that you can just watch the thing on youtube but it's still just kind of a jerk...

    Article: "An Easy Mode Has Never Ruined A Game"

    It's different when you look at it from the perspective of someone who is disabled. There are people with certain mobility or neurological disorders who are locked out of games without difficulty settings because they don't have the same coordination or reaction times as abled people, and...

    "Joker" new trailer

    That would be very difficult to pull off and I think is something that would really only work if the Joker wasn't the main character and central focus of the movie. I didn't really get the impression they're going that route from the trailer, but we'll see.

    "Joker" new trailer

    View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t433PEQGErc It looks good as a movie but I'm still opposed to the idea of giving joker some kind of tragic backstory. I didn't like the Killing Joke for the same reason. Doing so does add depth to a lot of villains (Kingpin for example) but I think Joker...
