The Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy series are probably what you’re looking for. Golden age Square JRPGS, especially Xenogears, are also generally great Jrpgs.
The bug was that it was rolled out prior to when they wanted to roll it out.
They’re definitely gonna try and put ads in there in the future. 😬 Was just comparing experiences with another user here last night about this (they had the ads but I did not) and seeing as they were across the pond from me and don’t even have the hub yet, it’s like they were just testing the waters in a specific region.
you don’t get entire functional UI elements accurately populated with appropriate data out of a “bug”. at best its a feature that was being tested internally and never would have made it past that, at worst its something that went live early.
Oh whoops I accidentally built an entire ad portal and placed it onto the main page and oh no I accidentally passed it through multiple levels of code review QA and approval, then crap I deployed it to the test environment then prod
Yeah it is possible he’s accurately, but misleadingly, calling it a bug because it was not meant to be deployed to production (yet). I do not think that’s how he wants or expects people to take it when he calls it a “bug”, though.
I disagree with the implication that users should “settle down” when faced with user-unfriendly experiences.
User silence is often taken as permission to continue shitty practices that build up overtime. Bloated games that are unoptimized, online subscription to play online, not even fully owning the games, not able to use your own bluetooth headset etc.
This tweet just perpetuates how consumer-hostile nature of these companies. It attempts to play down a potential revenue stream at the expense of UX, subtle gaslight users into thinking this is part of the “over-reactionary culture” when this a perfectly valid criticism, and makes no attempt to be sympathetic about these implications.
Honestly, this has made me swore off a PS5 and future sony consoles. It’s no longer affordable, convenient, or simply. I do love my DS4 controller tho.
I’m skeptical whether it was really a bug or not, but I could definitely see how it could’ve been just a bug given the description in the OP. Could’ve also been a “happy accident” they were hoping nobody would complain about.
Ah yes it’s always a bug after massive community backlash. If there wasn’t much, it’d have been a test, and if there wasn’t any, it was always intended.
yes sure it could’ve been a bug, but can we really believe them that it was?
companies are on a quest to pollute our lives with ads, it’s not a stretch to think it’s bullshit when another attempt to do that is being denied with “whoopsie the new guy wrote the code wrong nothing to worry about here!”
I remember playing MGS as a kid and thinking “graphics will never get better than this”.
It didn’t age well, but I still think of it as one of the most witchcraft-powered games I’ve ever played. I still can’t believe that they were able to craft such gorgeous environments and fluid, cinematic cutscenes on the PS1.
To his day, it’s still one of my favourite games ever.
I said the same thing about Daytona USA. When I booted up a GameCube for the first time and saw PSO I was amazed, although the GC was closer hardware wise to the Dreamcast, which we had.
Grass? Trees? BIRDS?! I remember the grass in Oblivion melting dual GPU setups back in the day.
