@AriesWarlock Just use their website/app. They tell you every location that has it in stock within 250 miles of your zip code and if it’s eligible for dotcom to store pick up.

On Dragon’s Crown

  • Dragon’s Crown was initially a project for the Wii.
  • ā€œIt was well-received when I presented it to a senior at Capcom, but supposedly one of the higher-ups asked ā€˜But can it sell like Monster Hunter ?’ and the project didn’t go through.ā€

i was recently thinking about Death Stranding.
no wait, hear me out first.
ive been thinking maybe just maybe, kojima is a genius.
hear me out
soooo. i was thinking of the ziplines.
cuz i saw a playthrough where the guy barely took more than 3 steps in 5 hours cuz he.
ziplined EVERYWHERE.
just from one zip to another.
then i realized.
the people who were the 1st peeps to play the game, had no road, bridges, or ziplines.
their trek, took forever as they had to do it the hard way.
taking them between 50 and 70 hours.
meanwhile, peeps playing 1 or 2 months after release.
20 hours tops.
!!!
as they ziplined and drove over completed full roads and bridges.
easy peasy.
vet: ā€œman building those roads. having to traverse those high snowy mountains.
all that hell. my truck getting stuck every 10 feet.
breaking my bike over and over again. lost packages.
it was hell.
hell i say! hell on earth.ā€
beginner: ā€œwhat? it was easy. total cakewalk. just zip zip zip. smooth driving over roads going from base A to base B.
never had an issue.ā€
vet: ā€œhuh!ā€
beginner: ā€œwha?ā€

fucking kojima.
made a minecraft game.
where you build the world.
for someone else to enjoy.
thats what he did here.

where.
if you play the finished game.
with the world already built for you.
its great.
20 hour joyride as you listen to cool itunes songs while driving over smooth highways.

but if you play the just released, nothing built yet game.
with no constructed shit.
its awful.
its 70 hours of fucking hard labor like the type you suffer on a chain gang.

kojima made a minecraft game.
sam porter bridges isnt a delivery man.
…
HE,…
IS A CONSTRUCTION WORKER!!!

the experience.
and the pacing.
is vastly different depending on when you play the game.
sooner.
or
later.
great experience if you in the later camp.
whole lot worse, if youre in the sooner camp.
kojima…is a true artiste.
i’m, brilliant enough to understand, his genius.

Well first, you should get on that.

Second, yes he turns into a van.

Very meta. The epic retelling of the tale of the original Mario (the carpenter from Donkey Kong) in his first venture into the Mushroom Kingdom.

I was thinking about Skyrim for a minute just now; reminiscing about all the good times with that game… I’ll bet one thing that still has some of the folks at Bethesda scratching their heads was the outcry over the random vampire attacks in towns…fans of the game absolutely hated that shit…I still don’t get the whining about it either; perhaps because I’m admittedly biased in favor of having as much cool vampire shit as possible, especially in games…but it seems I was the only fan who though that idea was awesome and kinda funny. It didn’t even matter if the player was there in town, btw… you come back from an adventure to see that various characters have been murdered because the vampires struck again…ha, it was great.

sheeeittttt, if only that game was perfectly stable like most games I enjoy…it would be a very strong contender for the top spot on my personal ā€œGreatest of All Timeā€ rankings. ( * In contrast… the various versions of Diablo 3…or Dragon’s Crown, Kingdoms of Amalur, Vampyr, etc… in the hundreds and even thousands of hours I’ve enjoyed those; they have never frozen or crashed at any point…not even one time.
Kingdoms of Amalur does have 1 game-breaker, but it’s an avoidable situation if you’ve read up on it or someone tells you in advance not to do that 1 thing…aside from that; no problems.)
