Beware of Game Preorders (Part 3)

Izumi Konata

Phew! Finally got that refund. I guess even my gaming intuition can be wrong sometimes.

Izumi Konata

(At least I didn't waste my hard-earned allowance on another overhyped game.)

Oyama Mahiro

You know, Konata, even if this game was out already, it would still be unpolished. Modders might take 5 years to fix all the cut content and promised features.

Oyama Mahiro

Look at this! My datamining shows files pointing to unused graphics and mechanics. It's like they left breadcrumbs of what could have been.

Oyama Mahiro

(It's fascinating how much you can learn about a game's development from its files...)

Izumi Konata

Whoa, Mahiro-chan! You're like a game detective! But isn't that stuff too complicated for casual gamers like me?

Oyama Mahiro

Well, if you want to do some serious modding, you'll have to learn scripting. It's not just about changing textures anymore.

Oyama Mahiro

But trust me, it's worth it when you can fix things the developers won't.

Izumi Konata

Ugh, that sounds like work! Can't we just wait for the devs to patch it?

Oyama Mahiro

Konata, listen up! Never rely on unresponsive devs to fix something broken.

Oyama Mahiro

And don't hope modders will fix it either. Sometimes, you gotta take matters into your own hands!

Izumi Konata

You're right! If I can grind for rare drops, I can learn to mod! Teach me your ways, Mahiro-sensei!

Izumi Konata

(Who knows? Maybe I'll even mod myself into the game as an epic boss!)
