Entitled gamers strike again.

SuperBeast8114312d ago

not entitled its not like I got it for free I pre paid for the season!

JaredH4312d ago (Edited 4312d ago )

Maybe I just have patience or maybe a couple hour episodic game isn't my gaming priority every month. I've been okay with waiting and can wait two or three months per episode without flipping out. It's not like they're not going to release the episodes or something. People will get them when they're ready.

@darkride66

I find the over use of entitled to be hilarious.

This isn't a case where people just expect to get something for free. People paid for a subscription for Walking Dead that includes one episode each month but they haven't been getting them.

Are you seriously suggesting that paying for something doesn't give you the right to get it?

brish4312d ago (Edited 4312d ago )

I found this when browsing the web.

Episode 2 coming to PSN this Friday:

I think Telltale have finally got a quality franchise on there hands, and should be happy fans care enough to complain for more.

I want it, but then again I want them all right now. Really enjoyed first episode and glad I paid for the whole pass... I wish it was out, but I'd take quality over speed anyday

SeekDev4312d ago

Unbelievable. Screw it, it's believable.

SeekDev4311d ago

Either they wait for a good game or take their chances now for a buggy one. That's really all there is to it. I'm leaving the morals of selling people a season pass and then not giving a firm release date out of this comment though.

dee234307d ago

Episode 2 took along time to come out and still had bugs and other technical issues that needed a follow up game patch. Could they not have released the game earlier and released a follow up game patch. I for one would have preffered the latter.

SeekDev4307d ago

Had they released it earlier than they did, it would have had even more bugs, which is even worse for them. A follow up game patch would have still taken until now to come out because it would take the same amount of time to find them all and fix them.

Les-Grossman4312d ago

They probably just should have waited to release it all at once. Like they did for Jurassic Park

solidboss4312d ago

this is why i never buy episodic games, give me the full game straight up for what i pay for it not have me wait for the next "episode" especially when its supposed to come the next month

Christopher4312d ago

You do know you could just wait to buy them all at once when they're complete, though, right?

I mean, I get not wanting episodic content, which means you can buy them all when they're done. But, they offer it up as an option to buy the games this way, and people know they will have to wait for each episode, so I don't really get the complaints. Both worlds can be happy.

user54670074312d ago

Yeah but that side of the world who get to enjoy the game before the other side who are waiting for all of them to be released at once are going to much happier.

Jaces4311d ago

I enjoy the episodic content waiting each month for the next, really gets my anticipation up. Can't wait for then next episode! :D

dee234307d ago

I agree. I like the concept of monthly episodic gaming. But it's only good when it works and games are released monthly otherwise people loose interest. Personally i find that story telling looses fluidity when there is lengthy breaks between episodes. Successful comics and tv shows hold interst due to regular episodes and consistency.

Arcanine4312d ago

i read the article and went to their face book just to add a comment ..Yes its about loyalty to us as its about money to them....

Game never had plat no surprise

NukaCola3481d ago

Season 1 has a platinum trophy. I have it. 500 Days didn't though.

Jaqen_Hghar3480d ago

still sucks though. Couldn't be any easier than season 1 so no reason not to

Jaqen_Hghar3480d ago (Edited 3480d ago )

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Well guess a man will only get for Ps4 now (was going to get for both and plat both so now dev will get less support). Honestly why not have a plat? Your first game had one and it was impossible to miss so it can't be any easier. The Wolf among us for both then and TWD season 1 PS4. Well that's still 3 platinums to add to a man's collection. A man still supports the dev but this makes zero sense. Hopefully BF gets them both down to $20 or lower.

To be clear a man doesn't base any purchases on trophies. A man was going to wait for the PS4 versions of all the games regardless but was going to get the PS3 version as well before re-selling it just to get the plat for little to no cost (after resale cost was subtracted). A man only bothers to platinum a game if he likes it and never does annoying trophies like Resistance 2 10,000 kills despite that being the only one that he didn't have because if they're not fun why go for em?

Didn't have it on PS3 either. Don't know why, but yea.

Papafynn3480d ago

Dear Game Developers,

Platinum Trophies sells games. Gamers check trophy Lists before they buy a game. An easy or "Onlineless" trophy list could be the tiebreaker if they can afford only one game. Trust me it does. Doesn't make much sense but well.....it's gamers of today. They need to be rewarded. Be it a 100 "Like" on their selfies, 100 "retweets" or 100 other gamers watching them play a game on Twitch.

Give them their Platinum Trophies.

sloth33953480d ago

real gamers don't care about trophies only these fake gamers do. a real gamer plays a game for fun not to get trophies

Theangrybogan3480d ago

But what does a true Scotsman do?

kreate3480d ago (Edited 3480d ago )

It's always nice to have trophies. Especially the platinum.

Wish starcraft had trophies and be released on ps4 or x1. I'll play it all day everyday.

Ratty3480d ago

You can care a little, not at all or a lot about trophies and it doesn't affect your status as a gamer at all.

Some people enjoy hunting for trophies. You don't. That doesn't make you better than them nor does hunting for trophies make them better than you. So please ;p

CaptainObvious8783480d ago (Edited 3480d ago )

There's been many a game I've been on the fence about, about because of their stupid online trophies or lack of platinum trophy I haven't bothered.

Dark_Overlord3480d ago

Same here, I avoid near enough every game with ridiculous online trophies.

levian3480d ago

You guys know a game can be fun regardless of whether it's trophies are difficult to get, right? Just because you can't get them all the way you like to play doesn't mean it's not worthy of purchase.

ginganinja3480d ago

I was under the impression it was Sony that determined whether a game could include a platinum trophy.

SonyAddict3480d ago

A true scots man tries to get every platinum that he can get and I know..because I am one!.
