Okay, I can see how that's confusing now. When I said "Before midnight", I meant 11:59 of the current date. You know, like how it normally is. But they killed it at 12:01 of the current date, I assume, which is why I was saddened that it was already closed.

So, I just found out something very annoying. So, the SMT Nocturne Remaster was released on all systems and PC. I own the switch version. In the Switch version, it ships as the Chronicle edition (featuring Raidou Kuzunoha the XIV) and you buy the Maniax edition (featuring Dante of Devil May Cry) as DLC.

The PC version is the original version base, with Maniax and Chronicle as DLC (Chronicle DLC being free).

This is very annoying, because I don't have the full version of the game, and the original version doesn't have the Fiends! Yes, the Fiends and all its associated dealings were only added to the Maniax and Chronicle editions. Sure, it technically means I miss out on the true ending, but it's also SIGNIFICANTLY easier! And plus, I recommended this game to a friend of mine, and didn't know this at the time, so now he's gonna be all confused when I start talking about stuff.

It's missing the ability to play the original version of the game. Granted, there's not much reason to do that, but still.

Also, Chronicle is not a palette swap of Maniax. Raidou has different, unique attacks and cutscenes from Dante. They also use different voice actors (the remaster uses VAs), mainly because Raidou himself doesn't talk (long story).

Mechanically, they are the same when you fight them, yes. But a Palette Swap is a very specific term that implies that the vast majority of aspects of a character are preserved. Raidou is not a straight palette swap. Also, before the remaster, Raidou was actually better than Dante, because Raidou got Pierce, meaning Dante was functionally USELESS in the game path you recruit him in. They fixed this in the remaster.

• They didn't tell GI until the last minute about the closure, so they had completed 70% of putting together their next issue.
  
• The announcement on GI's Twitter about the closure was probably done by AI, so GameStop couldn't even be bothered to actually write a closure message or let GI write it themselves.
  
• When someone at GI did write a goodbye message on the accounts Twitter earlier today, GameStop responded by outright deleting the account.
  
• All GI content has been taken down and happened so fast that staff at the company didn't have enough time to archive their own works for portfolio purposes.

Ah. I was using the term before knowing they get things actually different about them and thought it was just same moves, same cutscenes, same dialogue but different skin and VA.

I also haven't seen anything about it but I wonder what's happened to anyone who had an active subscription to GI? I won't be shocked if GameStop just decides "too bad so sad" and gives those people nothing back.
