@stm1185: Copyright/Trademark law is used all the time to crush the throat of individuals and inventors. Your beloved lassez faire free market capitalism is what he is using. I'm sure the irony of this position is lost on you, but then again, conservatism has become farcical in late-capitalism.
...Or are you a classical libertarian saying that American Corps should be happy when Chinese knockoffs of their products lead to lost revenue? Riddle me this, little Trumpkin.
Stormblood is a ludicrously good expansion! I was playing WoW for a few months leading up to the Stormblood release and it's very clear that FFXIV is the better game these days.
@jerjef: Yeah, I'm sure Nintendo were overjoyed with MS as they dropped their price by over 100 bucks during the holiday season where WiiU had the most exclusives to leverage in the US.
I am totally okay with it if this game paints right wing lunatic fundamentalists for what they are. In truth, they are the one segment of American society that has the most in common with Wahhabis. Everyone dances on eggshells to "not take it too far" with their portrayal of white sharia Americans. Meanwhile, theh will parade through your town burning crosses, waving swastika flags, and supporting the stars and bars right in your faces without a care in the world.
If the game is tone-deaf, it will be because they tried to paint the neofascist white identity America as anything more than target practice. That is the truth.
