>>371794307
I find it weird that a small forum like Neogaf is seen as some sort of gaming Illuminati responsible for all the bad things happening in video games. What makes you think they're so powerful?

I would have bought it if it was still coming to Wii U.

To call the Wii U the "lead platform" for the game, then not only scrap it unceremoniously but also deny Nintendo fans a physical version on the Switch, is just way too big of a betrayal for me as a consumer. I can't trust Playtonic anymore.

>>371794969
Pretty shitty behavior. I don't give a fuck about Jontron but goddamn getting sick of companies doing intentionally bad PR.

I do have a Banjo-Kazooie shaped hole in my heart so I want to play this. I'll compromise with myself and wait til it's on sale for $10 or something.

Why is it going to be great?

Why does it feel like Yooka-Laylee was built entirely on nostalgia goggles?

>>371794969
They banned people shitposting in the game's Steam forums. Not asking for refunds.

>>371795502
Because it is

But that shouldn't matter if it's a good game or not

I want to play it because I like 3D platformers, not because I want to go back to 98

>>371795502
Don't blame everything on nostalgia just because you haven't played the game, you petulant little shit. Banjo-Kazooie still holds up today.

>>371793819
yeah probably gonna pirate it

I'm not a fan of jontron but at this point anyone accused of being a bigot is just automatically A-OK in my eyes and I immediately side with them

I'll be the first to say it. Mighty No. 9 wasn't even a bad game. People were just sour after all the delays and stupidity from the PR lady. Certainly, it could have and should have been a better game considering the time and money that went into it, but it scratched the Mega Man itch. Its only crime is that it's "just another Mega Man" instead of "Mega Man's glorious return."

What the fuck is wrong with a double jump?

>>371798918
Instead of giving you one big momentum based jump, like Mario, you get two tiny, stiff jumps that can't actually get you anywhere alone. It also makes platforming a non-issue since you can save yourself from any botched jump with the second one. You'll also be mashing it, since a single jump will be too tiny to actually get anywhere. You also already have a fucking glide, so the second jump isn't needed.

There's a reason Mario has never used it

>>371798918
Oh boy I sure do love arbitrarily having to hit jump twice to actually get anywhere!

>>371795539
No, they started out by banning people asking for refunds. But with any controversy lasting longer than a day, people try to spin it like the PR department didn't create their own problem because they weren't here for it actually happening in real time.

>>371793819
I didn't like Banjo-Kazooie and I won't buy not even pirate this game. It has always been and it is a full platformer for people who believe there is anything better than Mario 64. Same with Crash Bandicoot.

I thought this was going to be the one game I was going to feel bad about not backing, but they had to go fuck it up at the last minute.

Oh well, $40 saved.

So yeah, like you said, they inflated expectations way too high and an overall decent game was seen as complete trash because people were led to believe it would be the second coming of Christ.

That's what you get when you help crowdfunding, the final product not living up to your expectations is a risk you're taking. Even then, wanting a refund because your favorite e-celeb got ditched is hardly a good reason to start with.

I'm personally waiting for the game's reception when it comes out before I even invest a dollar.

>>371802856
They did it just to stay relevant.
They saw Jontron getting shitted on so they wanted to appear as being progressive by canning him
Jon said it was cool, and he understood
But a lot of people don't agree with politics being shoved in every faucet of their life so they're pulling out, meanwhile Team17 (their community team) is shitting on steam users and kickstarter backers for simply asking for refunds.

Good thing uk law requires refunds even on products perfectly as advertised. Also chargebacks if they keep spinelesy ignoring. Then lawsuits will follow if people are really irked and they will win too because a donation for a good/service is still a transaction. That's why pimps can't accept donations to have prostitutes bang people for "free."

I'm 99% sure he fucked up banning the refund people and Team 17 benched him. since his face is all over the internet he stopped posting and moderating

>>371802994
Yeah, I couldn't care less about the drama but I'm not paying $40 for a singleplayer game. Especially one that's already made all its money through Kickstarter.

>>371803428
They probably all got fired or promoted because the company is going down. One or the other. Expect apology PR statement or an out of business statement soon.

>>371803316
Then go back there, Neocunt

>>371802737
It's ruined because NeoGAF had to be meddling cunts, and Playtonic decided to listen to them without doing any research.

NeoGAF could have easily stuck to the circlejerk in their forums about how bad it is JonTron got to do some HERPDADERP sound effect for the game and how big a nazi he is for saying shit that is 1% /pol/ and 99% spaghetti due to being shit at debates, but instead they had to literally contact the developers and DEMAND his removal. Playtonic could have ignored them or released a generic PR statement about how the game isn't about politics, but instead they threw their hat into the ring of this debate and are now part of the shitstorm they could have very easily avoided.

>>371803480
Except it used to be common for companies to just say "individual views don't reflect the company" and then move on without doing anything. All over some gibberish voice acting too.

>>371800169
nice edit

>>371803315
All this /pol/ shitposting can really, truly, actually, literally, and honestly be avoided if game devs stop bringing politics into every fucking thing they do. Is that seriously so fucking hard to comprehend?

>>371803362
Kickstarter isn't the same as GoFundMe though. It is more about investing than donating.
I will admit I have no knowledge of UK laws, but if you can freely demand back money invested in projects even if they are following the contract you signed then the UK has a shitty system.

>>371803389
I don't even see how its really virtue singling. Jontron made himself appear like a racist. Even his anti-SJW friends think he was leaning more alt-right. I think people would have ignored him when he came out as an anti-sjw trump supporter.

Its Jon's fault for doing that debate so terribly and fucking over his own public relations.

>>371803572
you think Monday? I don't know but then again they had 8k to 4k in preorders over this

>>371803315
We need crossboard cooldowns.

>>371802729
>I don't understand how Kickstarters work
You saw something you liked and you invested in it. You're not getting a refund after the game is fucking finished just because the publisher, who isn't even the fucking developer and does not share the opinions of the developers, made a mistake and overreacted.

>>371803075
And now the backers are shitting back on them 10 fold to the point where they can't even control it anymore. All the normalfags getting caught in the crossfire is just platinum icing to the golden cake.

justice for jontron

>>371803624
It's not that I hate Jon for saying something racist, it's that I hate that he brought politics into video games with all of the fucking shit he's been doing lately to bandwagon on the presidential election dribble, and because of that, now Yooka-Laylee is associated with that same fucking shit for completely opposite reasons.

>>371803702
And then /pol/ ruined it because they started posting it here non-fucking-stop for the last few days and won't shut the fuck up about it and blowing it out to be way bigger than it actually is.

Fuck the "You're either with us or against us" mentality, both sides ruined it for their own personal gain, and now we're stuck in this godawful endless shitposting loop.

I'm sick of it.

>>371803702
Or better yet Playtonic could have just not have said anything at all.

Oh and Gaf is looking at other ecelebs too they literally will not stop until they've ruined everyone's career. They are literally saying these people should be caged.

Step 1. Research everyone involved in Yooka-Laylee development, especially outside voice actors, modelers, animators or whatever.

Step 2. Full internet background search. Everything from twitter profiles to tumblr pages to forum posts from 2007

Step 3. Analyze anything that can possibly be twisted into sounding "problematic" or "against diversity"

Step 4. Compile it all into a master post, tweet/email it to Playtonic and demand his/her removal from the game in a patch and that they replace all that patched out content

Step 5. Watch Playtonic squirm

Guess what, when you're an e-celeb, every bit of you that you post about is the same and totally related. You don't have "off days", because you choose when you work. Posting shit on twitter is working for these people, and Jon doesn't exactly make videos or content everyday. Jon's political stuff IS content, whether you agree or disagree.

>>371804448
>>You literally had to go out of your way to figure out jontron was being anything political before the yookie-laylee shit
You're a stupid motherfucker if you actually think that. The only thing Jon's been doing as of late is posting about politics and getting into debates and shit. Not to mention /v/ posts about it fucking everywhere screaming /OURGUY/.

You don't have to say anything explicitly political to be targeted by ideologues.

I am, the only people that refund a game because of some piece of shit YouTuber made some shitty politics opinion that he barely knows shit about is delirious.

I never gave a fuck about john tron and neither do my 30 over friends that are getting it as well.

I'm glad they took off john tron fuck that guy, I could care less.

Didn't care he was in the game before and don't care if he's not in the game now, this is not even censorship.

Tons of game related news sites and communities have posted about jontrons political views to death. If you're even the slightest bit of interested in games you would have heard about it by now.

I look at it this way. It's called PR. You get bad PR, you get booted. JonTron, whatever he did, clearly was dumb enough to cause a stink publicly and failed to realize that some platforms are not appropriate for full-on retard rants specifically designed to attract attention. You might notice that e-celebs have a hard time not drawing attention to themselves. So the devs saw the bad PR and said "sorry man, but you can't make us look bad." It's all business. It has nothing to do with "bringing politics into the game WHAT THE FUCK!"

>Pretending /pol/ are heroes of any kind
Vomit

>>371806227
I agree with the sentiment but you people undermine your own stance by screaming /pol/ at pretty much any opinion you disagree with.

>school them
You can't school bigots that reply shit statistics that have no backstory or the consequences that were dealt many years beforehand that led to the controversy.

Schooling pol is like trying to talk to a monkey and then it throws a fucking banana at you.

They are the true niggers.

/qa/ has been trying to delete /pol/ forever
its a board of almost entirely redditors

If you want an echo-chamber of positivity about games and ignoring any and all criticism then this website is probably not the best for that sort of thing.
Take Dota 2 for example, it will always get shit on here. So I'll go to r/dota2 to discuss it instead.

A game's success depends on if the game is good or not, it's not effected by comments on this site.

Does anime trigger you that much?

>Except in this case it would be about fairness, wouldn't it?
No, it would be about bullying and autism, which are things the insecure teenagers of this website have in spades.

You can get a refund by calling your credit card company and asking them to return the money you gave them.

Actually, a game's success depends on how well it sells. A game can be really good, but get piss poor sales, and still be considered a failure.

>blacks are 13% of the population
>whites are 67%

three times as much means niggers are still nigging way too much, do the math hommie

>How come Trump supporters don't start curbstomping or fighting back antifa raids?
To be fair, they did just that in Sacramento (a dozen Antifa got stabbed), Berkeley 2: Electric Boogaloo (lots of scuffles and Captain Texas beating Antifa with a stick), and just yesterday in Huntington Beach (brawling with an ultimately outnumbered Antifa). Though, I can't fault them for fighting back against Antifa retards who show up to a peaceful gathering and start pushing people around thinking there won't be consequences.

God I am so tired of all this bitching about /pol/. Every time something happens it's /pol/ this /pol/ that. It's somehow gotten way more annoying than people bitching about reddit or another console fanbase.

It hurts your credit score to do this.

A good game will sell well, but that does not necessarily mean all games that sell well are good.

good since god forbid if that containment board goes away, they will just end up shitting everything up with their dumb pseudo intellectual bullshit so glad /pol/ is there to stay since it makes a great fucking containment board for those type of circle jerking faggots.

So buy something and pay for it it, then it goes back up.
