Tuesday 9-4-18: 2K Tells Fans to Ask Belgum for Paid Loot Boxes, Dream Daddy Noclip Documentary, and Anthem’s Free DLC

It’s not labor day anymore, so prepare for MORE labor! And also some news.

  • 2K Games Asks Fans to Write to Belgium Allowing Loot Boxes
  • The Dream Daddy Noclip Documentary
  • Anthem’s Free DLC

2K Asking Nicely


If you’ve been tuning in to the loot box controversy, you may already know that Belgium has initiated new laws that don’t allow certain forms of loot boxes and microtransactions, classifying them under local gambling laws. This change forced NBA 2K to update their game, removing the ability to purchase randomized packs for real-world money.

Well, being a corporation wanting to increase profit margins, 2K has issued a statement. In this, they express their disagreement with Belgium’s new legislation (though they do comply) while also asking their fans to write to the Belgian government asking them to revert their decision

They’re literally asking their player base to rally for them charging you more for game content. That’s cool.

Dream Daddy Documentary

A new Noclip documentary has been released, and it’s about the development of Dream Daddy, the dad dating simulator by the Game Grumps. Running 35 minutes long, producing and hosting was by lanah Pearce while filming and editing was by Jeremy Jayne. You can watch it above.

Anthem’s Story DLC Will be Free


According to an announcement by BioWare, their upcoming shooter RPG Anthem will not have a season pass option, because all story DLC will be free. While they did not expand on what exactly players can expect from future DLC, the fact it specifies as “story” leads me to believe campaigns will be free, while optional features like cosmetics will be available for real-money purchases. Either way, good to see an EA game not being entirely greedy.


That’s all for today, tune in next day (tomorrow, that is) for the next news post. Otherwise, have a great day!

Thursday 8-30-18: Dream Daddy Comic Book and Nintendo DMCA’s Nintendo Essentials

Like sand in an hourglass, these are the video games of our lives.

  • Dream Daddy: The Comic Book
  • Nintendo DMCAs Pokemon Essentials

Dream Daddy Comic Series


Developer and Publisher Game Grumps have recently announced that their popular dad dating game will be receiving a six-issue comic book series with Oni Press, with the first one available now. The first issue focuses on “fitness dad” Craig as he joins the protagonist for a college reunion. More information, including where to purchase the first issue, can be found on the Oni website.

Nintendo Takes Down Pokemon Fan Game Maker


If you’re a fan of fan games, you may have heard of Pokemon Essentials. It’s a game making toolkit that gives the user a friendly interface for setting up their own Pokemon games. Recently, this project “and all downloads for it have been taken down due to a copyright claim by Nintendo of America.” This has sparked some community outlash, primarily from the Pokemon Essentials community. Many are confused as to why, after 11 years, Nintendo only now issued the takedown. While this is unfortunate for those who invested their time in the project, I can’t say this is a surprise.


That’s all for today, tune in tomorrow for the final news post of the week. Otherwise, have a great day!
