The first time I did a Cauldron (post-Metal Ring), it was so radically different from everything that it honestly felt like Aloy had stumbled onto an alien world. Here was a girl decked out in animal leather and fur walking around on Tron lines and metal cable and it was so eerie and profound that I had to move slowly…

deadburning in Hell for the rest of Eternity for allowing numerous children to be sexually abused so he could win some fucking FOOBAWL games
I really really like For Honor. Having to grind out 60 levels per character + acquire all the steel necessary to get max level equipment just to stand a chance in the two most popular modes (Elimination and Dominion) is frankly a level of bullshit I am wholly uninterested in participating in.
It’s almost like they just wanted a grandstanding show-vote to get all the 2nd Amendment people riled up and cheering, but then they accidentally passed it and now they realize how fucking stupid they look. Almost.
“Hey remember this country’s long and tragic history with slavery and racism and prejudice against non-whites? We’re still here!”
Those crab robots (Shellwalkers)? I’ve finished the story and I’ve got end-game equipment and I STILL give those things a wide berth when I see them. They’re goddamn demonic.
He’s the type of asshole who becomes an asshole because he knows a lot about what he does and thinks basically everyone else is doing it wrong.
Straight up, the entire game makes for wonderful backgrounds. It’s THAT beautiful.
I got this one down in the Cauldron.
Here’s a couple of my own. Took them a little while into the game and when I first dabbled into the photo mode. It’s actually incredible how the game is so gorgeous that you can do 30 seconds of composition and end up with a screenshot that’s absolutely breathtaking.
I’ve sunk 30 hours into it since launch and the main thrust of the article is dead-on. Once I stopped thinking of it as an action game with a particularly in-depth combat gimmick and more as a pure fighting game, I started having way more fun with it. It’s got all the classic fighting game trappings I’ve known since…
As someone who actually appreciates baseball’s unique brand of “WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING”, I’m inclined to agree. I just can’t shake the rational side screaming “THEY SPEND 5 MINUTES THROWING 4 BALLS 5 FEET OUTSIDE THE PLATE AND GETTING TO THE NEXT BATTER”.
Part of me wants intentional walks to remain for the rare highlight of a team fucking up an intentional walk and letting the other team benefit from it.
If gamers truly want their competitive scenes to be eSports, then there needs to be an acceptance that random shit will happen. This Danger Time mechanic seems to me like it’s similar to a very costly turnover in sports, the sort that results in the other team ending up with a big score and momentum swing. On that…
The game? Left 4 Dead 2.
I’d argue that was accomplished with Rose and Noah, but there’s always the possibility that Melo caves and the Knicks do exactly that.
It’s extremely gratifying that we have now reached the stage in every Knicks era where the implosion has reached critical mass and will produce nothing but hilarious, catty bitching and back and forth until the team is, once again, nothing but ashes.
They won’t be back, though. Matt Ryan, against all odds, was an elite quarterback for a little while until the Patriots solved the riddle. Next season he’ll come crashing back down to Earth and won’t have anywhere near the same success he had this season and he’ll lose the division, while the Patriots will win the AFC…
I was not giving this Super Bowl the slightest thought and didn’t have any reason to root for either team until I read that fucking Shaugnessy piece and now I hope Atlanta dumpsters them by 8 touchdowns and Shank hangs himself from The Green Monster in despair and embarrassment.
