- Casual gamers -- and by this I mean mobile and social gamers -- are kinda pathetic. I genuinely feel sorry for those who can't see when they're being scammed by shit like Candy Crush Bullshit and Crap of Clans. But there's no convincing them, I've discovered, they're all "oh, I don't mind, I can just play a bit here and there..." PLAY SOMETHING GOOD HERE AND THERE INSTEAD. I think Miyamoto is wise to leave this particular part of the market behind; Nintendo games have always been "pure" games through and through -- accessible and family-friendly, yes, but still games rather than monetisation machines. Keep doing what you do, sir.
- Good. Should have done this a long time ago.
- NO! A thousand times no. It doesn't need it, and the attempt to shoehorn it in says two things to me: 1) EA wants something in the game they can continually monetise (because you know they're going to sell SOMETHING through microtransactions) and 2) they don't have as much faith in the pure single-player experience as they should. I don't know if either of those things are true, but that's the statement the inclusion of multiplayer in Dragon Age makes to me.
- Don't care. I have nothing to add to that, unfortunately, since I don't use Twitch.
