I just want more Pokeballs. I have yet to find a single Pokestop around me, let alone a Gym, within 20 miles of my home. I ran out of Pokeballs trying to catch a Rhyhorn and I will not buy more. Rural players weren't handed the short end of the stick: we were given a shit covered pile of sawdust and told it was the short end.
A Christian-themed game could be interesting if done right. The mythos is pretty interesting if you do some delving into it. I mean, Dante's Inferno was fun...
In the end, I'm glad someone from Activision said something.
Trust me, I'm no fan of CoD, but they're solid titles in their own right, and the game developers (the artists, the programmers, the composers and script-writers) put a lot of thought and effort into making the best damned shooter they can, and it definitely shows. I can understand not enjoying the series because they seem repetitive, we all need something new every once and a while, but is a game we grow bored of really worth attacking so harshly, at least ones that are still great games in their own rights? My reasons for not liking CoD stem from me just not liking shooters very much. It's personal preference, not developer hatred pushed to insane levels of pariah.
Gamers grow too attached to their games and systems. It often gets to the point where attacking a game they enjoy, or the developers making a small change in the formula, is a personal attack on themselves. And then when the developers finally give way and react in ways like Vonderhaar and Amrichs did, people like to put themselves on invisible mountains and claim the developers are being just as childish. People like this are just as childish as the people they claim to be better than, making assumptions based on outside media and pretending they wouldn't react that way in that situation, the hypothetical "master race" we all like to pretend we hail from. People who wouldn't act like that are way too few and far between for me to throw myself in the "better" pile. Hell, someone trying to counteract me may point out I did the same thing just now in this paragraph, and I'd say... "Yeah". It's because I'm not "better" than they are, I'd react in just the same way, taking flack for a minor mistake that amounts to MUCH more than constructive criticism.
Sorry if I see things from a realistic, practical perspective, and not from the "these developers don't respect us gamers and they personally insult me every time they make a mistake or lash back at an insult I threw" perspective, but that's just my two cents on the matter. It's a generic, realistic look many people don't like, but it's still a liable one.
It's not that I'd hate to see Bethesda games on the Wii U, it's that I know I could count the number of people who'd buy it on one hand, me included in that figure.
Bethesda games wouldn't really appeal to the audience that buys the Wii U. They'd really have to turn up some great tricks with the Wii U controller to sway some people into buying it for the Wii U over other consoles.
