Narrative driven, story rich games don’t sell?

How many video game franchises are making the leap to tv/movies these days? Hint, it’s the ones with narrative driven, story rich games.

Go ahead and make pay to win mobile games, I don’t play them and they rake in millions so it makes perfect business sense.

But the idea that gamers don’t pay for good narrative driven, story rich games is laughable.

I think the biggest problem with a lot of game franchises have is they only sell the game. So much money is being left on the table with the best efforts being a screengrab lazily printed on a cheap shirt that sells maybe one or two.

If I could get some official, quality, Umbrella/Shinra/Arasaka/Faro corporation mugs, phone covers, meme tier shirts etc I’d be all over it.

That’s totally right!

Iirc the games had very similar mechanics and look to them, forgot the thread was about Capcom 😅

Drain the swamp one way or another.

The elites will probably vaccinate, but their followers never will - it will become the official purity test of MAGA

Never played Dino crisis but I LOVE me some parasite eve.

Nothing against Dino crisis, just never got to play it, and definitely would take the opportunity.

Super pumped for onimusha reboot, would love to see modernization of Parasite Eve, Dino Crisis, And do something interesting with megaman - like Devil may cry meets megaman.

Same here! Loved the main 3, absolutely hyped to see It make a comeback looking the way it does so far

As above so below

Everyone should change their names on all their social medias to Luigi Mangione

People love crapping on the reality of resource economics.

Someone is going to provide the coal.

The real solution would be for Canada to be aggressive in its green energy programs (and start accessing resources other than lumber and oil).

Being a leader in green energy production (not just by having nuclear, hydro etc) but actually producing solar, wind, batteries, etc for export.

Using carbon based energy to create low carbon energy sources is the only way we’re going to successfully transition away from fossil fuels.

The main problem is that we do 1% green and 99% carbon, and that number never really seems to change.

Our carbon tax is not improving public options to ditch fossil fuels, which should be the whole point of a carbon tax (reduced use by increasing price, and using the tax to create low carbon alternatives).

I doubt we’ll ever be serious about a green transition anytime soon.

Why is Trump pardoning Antifa FBI crisis actors??

“dirty commies forced people into poverty and famine!” doesn’t really sound so different when people can’t afford homes or food under capitalism

Or, maybe they’ll be the Token Black Republican!

Knowing they’re personally hated by their party, and the only reason they are tolerated is because their existence “refutes” the palpable and constant racisim of the GOP.

One day, if they hate their own race enough, they can grow up to be the greatest Uncle Tom in history aside from Clarence Thomas!

Classic democratic party.

Waiting until the last possible minute to begin pretending to protect Americans from the entitlements of billionaires.

We knew Trump was running again

We knew the media was sane washing everything Trump does, did, and will do

He made specific promises to be a dictator and hinted at this being the last election

He specifically promised to use the army domestically.

Now, it’s almost a month after he won and Democrats are considering maybe doing something about framework regarding the army being used domestically.

Both sides aren’t the same, but they’re both owned by the same people.

Once upon a time Democrats could float the idea of capitulation to business interests to maintain Americans global business dominance. Nowadays any democrat who isn’t fully progressive on workers rights is just another flavor of corporate Greed.

Isn’t the defect rate of NK artillery something like 80% and the munitions arrive covered in machine grease that require cleaning before being used?

Obviously Ruzzia getting war support is bad, but hopefully what was sent ends up hurting Ruzzia military more than helping.

Would be a shame if Ruzzia lost artillery cover across the front lines because most the shells they have on hand are defective and Ukrainian was able to destroy/capture the artillery batteries…

A real shame /s

Can’t wait for prices to go up everywhere else!

Harder to be taken advantage of if you know the means by which one takes advantage of another.

Knowing the wealthy need you more than you need them lets you make stronger demands and form unions.

Being knowledgeable gives you job security and independence, you have intrinsic value as a capable resource - and if spurned can become a troublesome enemy because you understand your opponent and can take advantage accordingly

Knowledge is absolutely power, and power gives you opportunity for freedom to choose how to live your life.

I still have the app on my phone

Just in case

Generally, farmers bitch and cry about anything and everything, except for the things they actually should care about. Like sustainably, and corporate ownership of supply chains that collude on prices and distribution networks while putting all the risk on farmers.

They are one of the more entitled voter blocks who live in a zero sum, anything to ‘survive’ at the expense of everything else mentality.

We’d have dust bowl events every 5 years if farmers had their way. It’s absolutely an industry that demands government intervention, because sustainability isn’t short term profitable.

I’m not suggesting that farmers are inherently bad/greedy/destructive of the environment, as the food supply chain often forces farmers to act this way, but that doesn’t change their current attitudes and approach to agriculture.

My farmchair quarterback call is that Farmers crop yields should be half of their income, and sustainable practices, limited fertilizer and pesticide use, and overall soil quality and health should act as a multiplier to crop yields. So lower yields but better farming practices pays more than high yield, environment destroying, agriculture

The chemicals in your water are no longer chemicals, but value added seasoning!

Right wing backlash means you’re doing it right!

Clarity can easily be found in Nazi tears.

I was under the impression swapping out an implant was far easier than installing the system.

And I’m also talking about teeth that have been repeatedly drilled, capped, crowns etc - not a normal, healthy tooth.

These teeth are basically anchors for crowns, at what point is a new implant better than a chiseled out tooth?
