  1. Steam has things like achievements and a single unified client through which through which they can manage their downloads, friends' list and stuff. People seem to value it for that though I personally will be going for the GOG version.

     

    Same here. GOG has a downloader that breaks up the game into smaller parts which is great for people with limited data plans like myself.

  2. As you can see from this thread a lot of people do and many of them hate Tingle including me so why not get the chance to kill him?
    It seems completely random. You could probably make a list 2 pages long of characters from videogames that are annoying and people want to kill. What makes Tingle, a character from Legend of Zelda, special compared to the likes of Noober or Grobnar?

     

    More people want to kill Tingle I imagine. According to his Wikipedia page he's one of the most hated characters in video game history, except in Japan. I haven't heard of Noober but Grobnar isn't as well known. Also Fallout had tons of references that were completely random, The Flintstones, The Simpsons, They Live, one of the new Fallouts references Strapping Young Lad. A lot of these things I wouldn't have known unless I had looked it up on the wiki.

  3. So you want a fat, perverse, possibly pedophilic NPC to harass the player constantly? With the exceptional creative team behind it, PE should not have to fall back on blasé references for comedy. Besides, I don't see a lot of crossover between late 90s LoZ players and late 90s CRPG players.

     

    I never mentioned harasing the player, in any case I had imagined it as a side quest. Why not fall back on blasé references from time to time? Well you know about him don't you? As you can see from this thread a lot of people do and many of them hate Tingle including me so why not get the chance to kill him?

  4. In-universe humor can be a nice change of pace. Out of universe humor breaks the suspension of disbelief. So... this would be unhelpful. :no:

     

    That's a good point however the Fallout games referenced pop culture constantly, just look at the wiki. The key as Tim Cain said is to make it so that anybody who isn't in on the joke wouldn't think it's out of place. Which is why I suggested a crazy naked pervert who thinks he's an elf as a reference and not a guy in a skin tight green outfit saying that catch phrase.

     

    Just because you reference something doesn't mean you're showing support for it.

  5. Just to be clear I'm refering to this:
