Then vent your spleen at the execs, not at the devs who have to choose between doing what the execs tell them to do and working at Best Buy.

If you buy a house and after a few months of living there find that it doesn’t suit your lifestyle, do you heap abuse on the goddamn carpenters?

I’m coming to the conclusion that PC/console gaming culture is a mental illness and needs to be treated as such.

The toxics finally drove the rest of us away.

I thought, and still think, that Overwatch is a great game.

Borderlands 2 was great because of its writing. Borderlands and Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel were mediocre because of their writing. Underneath, they’re all the same game. Which goes to show, or ought to, how much good writing matters—and in some respects, how much more it matters than the underlying mechanics do.

The reason why many unions do aggressively protect senior employees is that senior employees have devoted more of their years to their jobs and have fewer options when their employers screw them over than younger workers have, and they’re also more likely to be targeted by employers because their experience makes…

First, that depends on the union.

Blizzard’s 2018 mandate had been to cut costs and produce more games

I played The Sims for a while. I stopped playing when I realized it just reminded me of how empty and repetitive my own life was.

The only kind of multiplayer game I want to play at this point is co-op with friends. After two and a half years of having my Overwatch experience ruined by other gamers, I can’t imagine what possible enjoyment could come from playing in the same sandbox with strangers. I’m not a griefer and have no interest in…

Overwatch is a great game. Overwatch’s player community is hot garbage.

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.

I’ll tell you the source of my Overwatch fatigue: The game’s been out for two and a half years, and yet the average player isn’t getting any better.

Blizzard.net offered me a free download of Destiny 2 the other day, and I didn’t take it, because when I tried the beta it was so fucking boring.

Always intrigued by people who believe their best retort to what they consider “virtue signaling” is to signal their own lack of virtue.

Plus, if you actually read the damn thing, it turns the flag into a bearer certificate of political authority, compelling you to serve and obey any schmuck who wraps himself up in it.
