I'm still mad ~.~ I tried to warn you :x Got a letter from my ISP today,went over my 500gb bandwidth allowance for january......I used 844gb lol First time you get off with a warning,2nd time they double the price of your plan to account for the extra bandwidth allowance >_< I just don't understand why companies do this. They can't possibly be that stupid, they have to be doing it on purpose right?
I don't understand why you'd pump millions of dollars into something that won't sell well at all >< There has to be a reason behind it :\ Siren.Kalilla said: » I just don't understand why companies do this.

I don't understand why you'd pump millions of dollars into something that won't sell well at all >< There has to be a reason behind it :\ They start off with an original idea. They make the game. Do everything right and sell it. IT becomes a huge success. Then they are like "hey~ this past game sold really well and it had great reviews. lets do it again but make it better" So companies do it~ make the game, gets decent reviews and still sells. Then its like "hey this franchise is doing well~ lets make an additional game" They don't put in the time and effort and add that magic originality to it from what made the first game great.

I don't understand why you'd pump millions of dollars into something that won't sell well at all >< There has to be a reason behind it :\ Well the thing is,it did sell well enough because alot of the DS1/2 fans (yourself included) thought "omg another dead space game yay!" and bought it.Regardless of if you hate it or not,you've already given them your money and the damage is done.So they got the "easy market" and opened it up to being more accessible to other non-DS fans (CoD,battlefield,neo-resident evil,maybe halo fans) or the like by subtracting what made it Dead Space,and including what makes it "fun for the masses" They did it with mass effect and dragon age and dead space 2 and its just gonna get worse as the series goes on,as well as in all their other EA games. Ever since Mass Effect 3 I havent bought another EA game and I never will. Carbuncle.Skulloneix

Misa said "dongle" on the other thread to Scragg. HEHEHEHE.
Siren.Kalilla said: » Quiznor said: » They did it with mass effect and dragon age and dead space 2 and its just gonna get worse as the series goes on,as well as in all their other EA games I didnt think so myself.I found DS2 to be too much "RAWR LOOK HOW SCARY I CAN BE RAWR!" the entire time.Hell look at the very opening scene and it all just goes on from there if you ask me. I remember when DS1 came out,I had no interest in it.I was talking to my best friend on the xbox while he was playing it and he was jumping and having heart attacks over the mic and I made fun of him.6 month later the demo came out and I finally played it and thought "holy ***this is *** cool" so I borrowed it from him,1000G'd it over the weekend and handed him back the game,apologizing for making fun of him,because the game gave me heart attacks and made me jump all over the place. The way you're feeling about Dead Space 3 is the way we're feeling about DmC Kali
I think a lot of people are just butthurt over his look. Capcom planned it out so you would have to buy the old dante look through DLC. It's Capcom come on~ you wouldn't expect any less from them.
Comboing is pretty damn easy though, so they made it so noobie players like myself feel good I guess. There are harder difficulties though for players who want more of a challenge, but I think you have to play through the game a few times before you can get to Hell and Hell where you die in 1 hit and enemies have normal HP.

I still suck at style points, get to S rank and then a random guy just whacks me from behind :(
Vergil's downfall trailer though.... Omg :Q...........

Possibly,but I dont think that was it,because it was a totally different kind of "scary".It didnt even strike me as a psychological scary (just me personally) like you said you felt about it.The problem with these companies is they think bigger and more hollywood is better Siren.Kalilla said: » Just thinking about Dark Souls 2 now makes me mad ~.~ I kind of feel this way about Lightning's return (FFXIII), especially her outfit :< I mean my faith was restored with FFXIII-2 but this one coming just looks like they want to add closure to the games storyline.

For me XIII-2 did more damage than good.I didnt want a continuation.The story wasnt there to continue in the first place,and the way they did continue it,was just absolutely stupid.I did like the last few seconds of the ending though.XIII-3 continues that by going on from a pointlessly random continuation point to something that it could almost be a brand new FF game if they wanted it to be.I dont know how everyone likes lightning so much tbh,she wrecks my head as a character Quiznor said: » While I hated the look and idea of the new DMC and have never played it and never will,I hear it did pretty damn well all across the world?

And you can't blame it all on Capcom when even the Capcom guys working on it were complaining about some of the ***they were doing. lol It's just like movies. Sometimes you just can't keep the chain going and make everyone happy with it.
Also, comparing games to previous games becomes silly to a point. "I don't like it because it's not like the previous game." So play the previous game and don't bother progressing. If that's too much, don't BUY games before you try them. Do gamefly or some other ***. Being disappointed is bound to happen. Especially now, all these companies going in a new direction. Making games easier or adding more fluff for a new audience. It should be expected. To be fair, Origins, Homecoming, Shattered Memories and Downpour aren't terrible games.
They're just absolutely terrible at being anything related to Silent Hill they nearly make me physically ill (exaggerating a bit...) looking at them. The series officially died the moment Konami disbanded KCET/Team Silent and outsourced to western developers. Losing Hiroyuki Ōwaku (primary writer for Silent Hill 2/3/4) and Masahiro Itō (Art director/monster concepts for SH 1/2/3) were crippling blows to what made the franchise great and terrifying. |
