Babe wake up, new Famitsu Interview just dropped

[CCheshire]

I know they probably read over the interview questions before, but does anyone wish they had asked about viera/hroth hat situation? Maybe about those new hairs we've been waiting for over 5 years now.

Mount loading was probably intended to make the zerg for the field operations more seamless and help people reach the target earlier. However, I keep thinking about Frontlines and how it could impact things there.

I will never understand the demand for Chat Bubbles. I truly just don't get it, and it mind-boggles me every single time I see it come up. I just fail to see the overwhelming appeal.

It makes following conversations in highly active areas much easier. Instead of trying to pick out who you're talking to while the text window scrolls by at a mile a minute you can just look in the direction of the people you're speaking with. It's also useful for easily identifying who said something in a crowd.

Also, I personally find it much more immersive to be able to consistently look at the world and characters while conversing with people instead of staring at the chat window.

Timed 4 weeks to milk as much sub out of you as possible

A game company that runs a subscription based game wants you to continue to pay a subscription?

Jesus Christ, he's cracked the code. Get this man a Pulitzer Prize for Investigative Reporting.

They do, that's what a hotfix is, but you can't do that with larger features. What you're describing sounds nice until one of those tasks that skipped procedure or was fast-tracked causes a game breaking issue, or runs afoul of some legal or compliance requirement, or any number of other problems. I don't disagree that corporate bureaucracy is a pain and things could be made more efficient but generally the procedures are there for a reason.

All of this.

And also modders also aren't liable if their code bricks your game or computer. And SE's QoL code has to play nice with everything else in the game. Modders don't have that problem. Like you said, the red tape can be annoying at times, but it often does have a function.

Or you know, they could either create content with actual substance that keeps players busy and willingly subscribed... or drip feed scraps every few weeks to milk the player base dry with minimal effort. I'm sure paying more for less is exactly what a sarcastic genius like you wants.

Defend the billion company? Where? A subscription service wanting you to continue to pay a subscription is how subscriptions fikkin work.

The fact whether you decide the service is worth the cost of the subscription, that's up to you. If not, then you can cancel the subscription, and thus no longer have to pay it under the understanding you can no longer access the service

I knew American schools were shite, but damn.

Cute picture, tho. Might use it as my sig. Don't mind if I cut it down a bit? Don't want it to take up to much room.

Not a priority, simple as. New systems that benefit everyone take precedence over fixing a (relatively minor) issue that affects two of the lesser-played races.

They'll get to it eventually when they run out of other QoL stuff to fix.

[Astronema]

I am totally upset about to wait again 2 month....
This is a bottomless impudence...

Will I stay subbed? Yes. Why? I guess because I am dumb and not wanna loose stuff. :c

And that Yoshi dodged the question about chatbubbles is in my opinion insulting to the playerbase.
Can it be so difficult to officially implement such a little thing that illegally exists for many years?

mods are endemic in the game now over their incompetence and unwillingness to add features that would make them do actual work. You have players now living out the "they live" film as a two tier playerbase.
