Ok? My mistake aside, this entire conversation was about how someone thought companies are right to stop people from emulating. Then you started talking about online piracy which is not the same thing.

I have no issue with emulating games. But I also have no issue of a company trying to stop their games from being emulated.
This was literally your starting argument and what I was objecting to. You have talked about piracy in all follow ups. How else am I supposed to read this? You are equating them. You use them interchangeably to defend Nintendo’s behavior.
Emulation =/= online piracy. You need to stop equating them. I emulate games I bought all the time. They were legally acquired ROMs and emulation is legal. I’m not doing anything wrong, legally/ethically/whatever metric you want to use.
Emulation is the legal act (in the US and many countries) of running games on a virtual instance of their respective consoles. Piracy is in no way required to participate in this activity. You can download emulators from the Apple App Store, that’s how legal it is.
I also find it laughable that you want to compare Nintendo to some scrappy artist spending a decade on their game. You need data to show the harm here.
Show me how this is happening to Nintendo.
Why?
Genuinely asking. Why do you think companies should do this?
You’re right. “A gamer news magazine” said it so that’s all there is to say.
Also I didn’t say the games haven’t had their share of major and minor issues. I just don’t understand the console gamer blame. The games sell millions of units on Steam alone.
What a weird take. And I don’t even like MH games
It did well tbh but there was just an entire meme culture knocking it for some reason. I remember seeing it get a lot of shit on Reddit back when I browsed it. It kind of surprised me in a lot of ways.
I think a lot of it was driven by people wanting to dunk on Microsoft and halo fans in particular. People still dunk on Microsoft, but halo isn’t as fun to dunk on anymore now that the series has completely gone off the rails and has an uncertain future
I got so tired of spending an hour with friends prepping for a hunt then 10min into actual hunt half of us getting one-shotted because we chased our quarry 50m too far into some area with enemies that can insta-gib you (this was World). And with PS4 load times too ugh
Less e waste, more useless plastic and cardboard that won’t get recycled lol
I’ve never understood why Reach got so much shit at launch and still sees some to this day. It’s a very good game. Ever since halo 3 wrapped The series has just been checking off boxes with their missions and making you fight pretty typical engagements. Here’s the tank level, here’s the warthog level, etc. Reach Is a very focused, dynamic experience from start to finish
Octodad is well worth $10 even with how old it is.
God that’s such a good episode lol
That I definitely agree with. For some reason people go “well I’m allowed to do this“ without any appreciation for the context of who he is and the reach he has. That dude has never apologized for anything in his life lol
It did not seem that you thought it was an issue in previous comments but this comment makes more sense to me even if I don’t fully agree. Appreciate the explanation.
I’m not being black and white about being an asshole. I’m saying “I’m an asshole deal with it” is a terrible excuse, which pewdiepie and the like lean on.
For those reading: don’t feed the troll.
I see what you’re doing and I’m not playing your game 👋
Unity was just too long and by the time he becomes and alcoholic/you’re stuck in that town for a while I just didn’t care anymore. I’m surprised I even finished it.
That being said the actual big assassination missions were super cool and I wish they had built on that formula more. It felt very rewarding to get creative and I liked how you had so many ways to play them. It was very good design.
