like give me an n64 stick to replace this one

Sega's greatest sin is not making more Shenmue games

I can forgive the C buttons on N64, because they didn't realize how important an extra stick was for 3d games, but not the c stick

but shenmue 3 is on its way

was it basically a stick attached to the four buttons, it felt like it

I never got very far in Shenmue. Technically impressive but not very fun

nostalgia is dead, kiddo, let it go

sry not to be mean I'm just bitter

I would love to go through all of shenmue, I had a friend who convinced me it was the best game ever

just yeah... kickstarters... corporate-backed kickstarters....

Crowdfunding has a lot of potential, but probably a lot more potential for disappointment

Crowdfunding suffers badly from free rider issues.

go by the person, basically

Well like on patreon think if goals were advertised more might help

well there's more of a problem with people overhyping things...

like Tim Schafer

You sorta have to though. If you don't get insane hype, no one donates.

oh god, look up the ant simulator kickstarter, the backer money literally went to hookers and blow XD

I mean...

have you seen the jawbreakers thing then?

that thing exploded from a bad youtube channel, I don't even know

The whole comicsgate cyber frog thing?

cyber frog is ethan van schiver?

I recently joined the group that thinks 1x speed is too slow 9/10 times

info junkie

I don't know. I don't really follow comics. I just know there's a new front in the culture war in comics and they're fighting the whole industry to bring some comic together.

not really

just a bunch of different people doing odd projects

That kind of crowdfunding can work. It's not about the product at that point. It's the message.

and it's working, because some dummies at marvel started freaking out about it like they are the bosses of comic books

Streisand effect

You'll have to fill me in what exactly you're thinking about.

Ah Streisand effect.

The ultimate fingertrap in PR.

I'm somewhat ill-informed, I just know that a youtube channel called "Diversity & Comics" started doing a dumb half-assed stream where he criticized and had a laugh at what marvel and DC have been putting out (DC somewhat less)

and it exploded

the guy was a failed comic artist I think, but he LOVED comics and it really came through in his videos

but when the guy got a few thousand subs, some of the people at Marvel started getting worried, because comics are doing so shit that a bad youtube channel kinda overshadows them by quite a bit

but they kept trying this bullshit with the guy, he's a honorably discharged marine? I think? so the SJWs AT MARVEL said "AW HEY LET'S TRY TO GIVE THE GUY PTSD!!!1!" because they are a very tolerant people

Well that's just cruel.

and when he said "even I could make a better comic" they said "well go for it, racist"
