As a fan of Jim Sterling I agree that the video you mean was really just... bad
It was. I think he needs to chill with stuff like that as he also made a unsettling comment in his BotW review saying something along the lines "I don't get why other people scored this higher", which felt unprofessional to me for someone who's reviewing the game. Like I don't care if someone likes BotW or not but you don't question others scores in your own review.

What's important is that even though Fortnite is a copy of PUBG, Fortnite has its own visual style.

People can look at Fortnite and tell its Fornite within seconds.

PUBG looks like any other shooter on the market at first glance.

Good art direction is essential.

But again, it's clearly ripping off that other game. It's just doing it better.
Exactly, but still I prefer calling it a clone rather than a "rip-off" and in my opinion at least that's a good thing.


PubG is suing Epic because they're complete morons. They have nothing to gain and everything to lose from that decision.
Yeah, like no one said ever lol.

This is more dumb than Gamevice suing Nintendo in my opinion.


But that doesn't change the fact that yes, Epic shamelessly stole the idea from PubG in the first place. The point is is that it's not wrong to do so.
Your last statement was correct, but why even mention shamelessly anyway? Lol and like you can not say they steal the idea... When again the Battle Royal genre has existed long before PUBG and Fornite appeared.

Shamelessly because they didn't even try to hide it. Everything Pubg does, Fortnite does. Everything from the opening queue area, to the parachute air drop, to the encroaching storm.

It's a bit like saying the original Battlestar Galactica wasn't a blatant Star Wars ripoff just because all the tropes of Star Wars existed long before Star Wars did. Nah, man, sometimes a ripoff is just a ripoff.

The leaks don't stop.

Even for the most mundane stuff like this.

I don't remember that part, I remember him being ok with people giving it 10's and stuff and that people hacked his website due to his low, low score of 7/10, which also happened when he made a review of No Man's Sky. And almost happened again after someone spread a fake Odyssey review claiming to be from him

You know what it's great that the leaked E3 was something as minor as that.

Imagine if it had been "How did you guys enjoy the trailer for Yoshi's FLIPPING Island? :)"

So I've been playing Hyrule Warriors Switch and currently at the... second-thirdish Epilogue level. So couple things I've learned:
**** Zant
The game is way more stressful than I thought it'd be with multitasking.
I think my main might either be Sheik or Lana, but I have yet to play 2/3's of the cast fully and like, none of the DLC.
**** Zant's Dragon.
I learned how to dodge cancel and thank God for fighting games.
Turns out the Training Dojo is actually super useful, and kinda absolutely needed. And you learn this during the scenario with a level 1 character you've never played, and a level 8 character who dies in a few hits.

Overall it's been pretty all right.

LOL There's a softcore fetish/porn game on the American eShop.

Oh but it doesn't stop there, because the description is just the one from the Japanese eShop completely run through Google Translate and the result is ****ing glorious.
If that wasn't enough, the game is completely untranslated. That's right, a game completely in Japanese is up for sale on the NA store.

Yeah, eShop might need a few tweaks.

Sorry for taking a small quote, but not sure what do you mean when you say rip-off is a rip-off.
Sure it would be nice if video games are more diverse and try not to copy each other, but then again, as long as the rip-off is better than the original, I personally don't think it is a bad thing. But I have to admit some people do not like rip offs that's for sure. So in general when it comes to rip offs whether it is a good thing or a bad thing it is totally up to you and the rip off it self.

I think the issue is you're assuming I'm putting a judgment on the term. I'm not. A rip-off is a blatant copy. That's not inherently a good or a bad thing.

I thought I was pretty clear in my posts that I think Fortnite is the superior game.

H1Z1, Last Man Standing, the Culling and... Some say Minecraft also counts as Battle Royale?

And whether they are big or not, I'm not really sure....

You are god damn right. Lol

And I literally said it's totally up to the game itself.

And you also call Fornite a rip-off as well, while true, I also did mention I'm not a fan of calling similar game "rip off" because I personally consider the term a derogatory.
But that's just me.

Is there a possibility this game gets it localization announced in the E3 Direct?

I need to know... for Bingo purposes.

I'm just waiting for a Battle Royal where I can go into like an office building and there's a stapler or a pen and I use it to attack my assailants.

I want a battle royale game where the guns are a rarity and not the selling point.

It makes it so boring and misses the entire point of what makes other battle royale fiction so good.

@Shishœ New MHA manga spoilers are out btw.

Hawks and Endeavour getting more characterisation together is really nice. I'm super hyped to see the two of them fight the new Nomu together, I just hope Hawks doesn't get hurt too badly with all the Icarus imagery surrounding his character...

Anything major out of them? I'd like to avoid getting a big reveal spoiled lol
The wait for each new chapter is killing me, ugh, why did I decide to catch up to this?

Feel the pain of the week long wait :demon:

Real talk, nothing of much importance happens until the end of the chapter, though there are things to look out for earlier in the chapter that get brought up again later.

I mean, it's feeling like an eternity for this arc to pick up. I know the Gentle arc ended, like, only three chapters ago but still!

Will be looking forward to it tomorrow, usually wake up to the new chapter on Friday.

I figured out how to do level mods in Sonic Generations. Or level edits for now.

Just need to figure out how to get custom geometry and music and the like in and I'm golden.
