In short: This year’s games pretty much sucked entirely, the sole exception I can think of being Pillars of Eternity: Deadfire, and previously existing games weren’t expanded on in any particularly interesting way. Wake me up when Dragon Age 4 is released.

Seconded, thirded, fourthed and fifthed.

Don’t you talk about my bro like that. HE IS REDEEMABLE AND I WILL REDEEM HIM

If Borderlands 3 doesn’t have Anthony Burch writing it, then I couldn’t care less. The Pre-Sequel was a snoozefest, except for the two or three bits you could tell he did write.

Harper’s lost me as a subscriber with Katie Roiphe, and with John Hockenberry, it’s shown me that I don’t need to miss it anymore.

Two words: “business plan.”

Anime is an endless progression of neoteny.

Nah. The Internet was fine when it started out. AOL was a mistake.

You left out the single most important and memorable member of Blade: Trinity’s cast: the vampire Pomeranian.
