>>22305042These things. I could earn 200k a year a never pay for bank, absolute horse shit or the highest caliber. You know what, it's christmas and I'm going to vent.
Why are people cool with bowing down to the whims of corporations? I mean, we all joke about failfreak and the fact that they don't give a shit about consumers outside of Japan but we keep eating up their shit, myself included. I think I drew the line at "I'll put up with their shit unless it directly inconveniences me". Which is fair I think. I like the games enough to ignore the Japan event favoritism and the random removal of good ideas/mechanics from one game to the next (see following Pokemon) but making a service which is inferior, inconvenient, detrimental to the gaming experience and bandwagonning onto the fucking pointless cloud tech is indefensible. I mean, all you need to ask is, if they offered the service as it is billed, i.e. just more boxes, would people buy it? Well they tried it twice now, ranch and box, they know full well it wouldn't work so instead they held peoples past games hostage.
But it doesn't matter, because we'll keep making jokes and calling people trolls and poorfags to detract from the actual issue. Gamefreak don't make games anymore, they find new ways of extorting the fan base.
