For 40 dollars you could buy:
>2 copies of bloodborne
>Shadow of the Colossus remake
>Samus Returns
>Almost get Mario Odyssey (8 extra)
>2 copies of Cuphead
>2 copies of Sonic Mania
>Super Mario 3D World
>2 copies of Resident Evil 7

Or you could buy FUCKING Mantine Surf and a 90 minute Rainbow Rocket episode for 40 dollars. Literally how is there a SINGLE person who finds this okay?

Yeah, I got my copy discounted (was about 30) and it was not really worth it. I mostly just wanted the new UBs and to do the Rainbow Rocket stuff. I've been getting one version of every game that comes out since gen 1, and US was the only one that gave me buyer's remorse so far. Though granted I didn't get Emerald until years after it came out at a yard sale

rabid pokemon fans will justify it by saying, its the way things have always been (crystal/Emerald/Platinum etc).

but what they don't realize is that in an age of DLC and patches, having to fork out the full price of a game for what is basically considered $9.99 DLC (if that) is a slap in the face, completely unnecessary and should be met with the same backlash as the loot box fiasco in Battlefront II.

Maybe they'll start doing patches and DLC like the rest of the industry, since they aren't developing for an outdated console like the 3DS anymore. One can only hope

I am aware of this.
If they think they can make a $60 pokemon plus and minu game for Switch and come out a year later with Plus2 an Minus2 and expect people to shell over an additional $60 that is when it will start to get publicity.

They specifically don't do DLC because they want everyone to have the same game.

Bug fixes are one thing, but to make it so parts of the game aren't accessible to everyone when they've purchased it isn't okay to them.

Explain why it should be without sounding like a moron as you do thus far.

What they should do ALL GAME DEVELOPERS SHOULD DO is just take the goddamn time give a complete game and stop holding shit back for any reason be it DLC or follow ups or remakes.

If you just give them content to actually keep playing when they buy a goddamn game they don't have a reason to stop playing for you to need to drag it out, now do they? Which means more sales as more people stick around to bring others into the fold.

To add, try not doing this in another industry and see what happens to your business.

How about that that chair that broke quickly because you rushed it out? Your business doing well with people being forced to replace chairs every three weeks? No? Why, I wonder.

Nah, you can easily just patch in the new content and keep it locked to people who don't pay. If they wanted everyone "to have the same game for compatibility" they wouldn't make it impossible for new pokemon from USUM to be played against SM. Even Platinum allowed an origin form giratina to be used against a DP player, gamefreak is lazier than they even were like a decade ago

Yeah, that's true. Really the only chance is if moving to Switch will cause make them want to rethink their business practices, since Switch games are $20 more than 3DS games and they might get more shit for it.

We're talking about Pokemon here. You know, the franchise that has released 2 different versions of the same game with slight differences for the past 22 years? That has also been releasing a third version that is the same except with a bit of extra content, and maybe a slight change to the story since 2000? Your argument doesn't make much sense

Maybe if you buy it in prepackaged meal form. Healthy components are cheap as shit. A cauliflower is like 50p in Aldi and makes enough mash for four people. You can steam or slow cook meat and veg so you don't even need to cook with oil. You can buy cheap frozen veg if you're worried about spoilage - I just add them into the pan once the meats browned - and you can buy enough wholegrain rice to feed India for like £2.

Everything else is portion control, exercise and meal schedule. Do you eat breakfast every day? What is it? Have you tried porridge?(it's really cheap if you just buy oats) How long do you go between meals? Do you snack? If its too expensive for you to buy basic meat and vegetable components then you should think about switching stores.

It takes a bit more time to do properly but you can eat healthy without breaking the bank.

Also if you are one of those people who thinks wasting money on organic food is somehow healthier then you deserve to be fat and poor.

>This is what McDonald's actually believes
For a dollar/pound, you can get a single coaster sized "burger", a little more and you could get a portion of chips
Or you could get a kg+ of rice. Just because you have to buy multiple healthy things at once to make a dozen meals, doesn't mean two bites of greaseshit is "cheaper"

Yogurt is great as long as you don't buy the vanilla shit with like 30 grams of sugar. Plain might taste gross and sour at first, but you learn to like it, fast. Now when I eat sugary vanilla yogurt, it's actually kind of gross

Learn to make sauces and seasonings for it, like egg fried rice or Teriyaki. Tumeric and Garlic plus seasoning makes even the cheapest shittest white rice into decent "yellow" rice if you prefer that. If you're fussy about veg just do >>35404209, frozen peas/baby carrots are free bulk.
As for yogurt >>35404215 is about right. Most Yogurts are super low fat (If you've ever been a stoner it's a pain in the ass) and too many make up for it by pouring sugar in. Even then, sugar is the worst part of my diet and I just get stricter about other stuff to make up for it.

Enjoy being banned on switch, they are charging for online so you can't hack anymore. Unless you feel like paying $20 everytime you get banned, have fun.
