‘KINGDOM OF THE PLANET OF THE APES’ was shot almost entirely on location.
“We probably had one blue screen set on the movie”

Final Fantasy XVI sold 3 million copies in under a week on a single platform ( PS5 ) vs Dragon’s Dogma 2 being available on PS5, Xbox & PC was able to get 2.5 million copies sold in 11 days.
You can mental gymnastics that all you want but I think Final Fantasy is doing just fine. Also Rebirth did much better in digital sales as well.
Yeah in Japan it faltered but unfortunately Japan isn’t really the target demographic for console games as much now.
They’re a demo far more into mobile games/handhelds now. It’s been that way for years at this point. Also XVI outsold Dogma 2 in Japan in release too so we’re clear as well
TLDR: Just enjoy great games & stop comparing them
I really think Square Enix has kind of a problem...
They put out 2 major - easily 100+ million dollar games- with FF7R & FF16, but apart from the die-hard fans nobody really seems to care.
- FF7R Sales in the second week dropped 89% in UK, 90% in Japan
- FF7 Remake sold 3.5 million in 3 days, but we have not heard anything about Rebirth's performance, probably because it's not doing as good (it was 34% down vs remake in UK)
The third game will probably appeal to even less people sadly.
FF16 sold 3 million in the first week, but has disappeared from charts after that. Super bad for a game of that caliber.
I love these games, they are my favorite each year, but they don't appeal to new people.
Capcom with Dragon's Dogma 2 doesn't seem to have that issue, it's gearing up to be one of the biggest AAA releases of the year.

New second channel video! The Dune review is taking ages to script and put together so I figured I’d upload the odd bit as a mini essay. For a sense of scale, this is about 1/3rd of the introduction.

Dev Patel "faced catastrophe" everyday while making #MonkeyMan.
“I begged our financier not to shut us down a few weeks before principal photography. I lost my initial production designer and [cinematographer] and the film was basically dead. All of the locations we prepped for we lost day of. The borders closed, so I couldn’t bring in lots of supporting characters. I ended up having to put every tailor, lighting guy, accountant etc. in front of the camera...we only had three or four break away tables so once I would perform a huge bulk of stunts I would scream CUT and then immediately all of us would get on our hands and knees looking for all of the broken pieces of wood to glue the tables back together for the next shot."

The last time a MAD MAX and ALIEN film released in the same year (1979), Francis Ford Coppola released a masterpiece that had a troubled production period.

Everything Jared Monroe is saying is true and he is one of many people that has been enduring this legal abuse for years.
Crowder’s ex-wife and family and virtually all of his former employees (including Dave Landau) should similarly find the courage to speak out.

Dragon's Dogma 2's character creator being so good leads to funny situations where you meet online pawns like this

I humbly ask the record shows I repent of panicking over this. None of these micro-transactions breaks Dragon's Dogma 2. It's all fluff that can be found in-game.
Creating a new character was simple enough; I just deleted my save file and started a new game. It's very fun now.

Twitter Bullshit: You have to pay real money to fast travel in Dragon's Dogma 2
Reality: Oxcarts take you to every major city, are unlocked automatically at the start of the game, and cost an average 200g. Fast Travel crystals can be purchased in-game for 10,000g and also found on enemies/as rewards.
You can be attacked while riding an Oxcart but otherwise, you can skip the entire journey and traverse almost the entire map in 60 seconds.

Twitter Bullshit: You have to pay to change your character's appearance in Dragon's Dogma 2
Reality: The first city you visit, 30-60 minutes if you rush, you can buy the item for next to nothing.
