God this is such a weird thing. My first guess was that it started independently and they just slapped the title on and called it an adaptation so Ubisoft would fund it.

For the avoidance of doubt, when daddy’s at work and the boy is home, his climbing all over me is my being extremely lovely and letting him goof around even though I’ve got work to do. When I’m not working, we have many a splendid gaming time together, most recently our obsession with Minecraft Dungeons.

I wonder what it says about you that this is how your interpret the celebration of options that allow greater accessibility.

There is a six-year old child vying for your attention and you play a video game? Give him a controller, for crying out loud...

OMG yes. But also a toggle for "There's a 6yo literally climbing on me while I'm playing."

The BEST part is that the same nerds crying about how “Game Journalists can’t play games” all cite the exact same like, *four* examples and that’s it. Every time. It’s all they have.

I had to type that out in Notepad before I saw it. Wow, good spotting! 

Definitely was the right call, due to the games I can’t imagine Geralt with anything but that general raspy kind of voice. I thought Cavill’s raspy voice fit quite well and felt perfectly in place with the character of Geralt.  

At first this just came across as an “oops” sort of mistake. After seeing the way that the mineral sounds kind of like Dolemite, I’m now of the belief that this was someone on the localization team thinking they were being clever and getting caught. That does not seem as coincidental as one may first presume. Glad…

I’m guessing this is one of those occasions where from the surface the response might seem a little knee-jerk, but if you peek into what it had become in that community I could imagine it being pretty horrendous. The post doesn’t really dip into that, which is a shame.

In a post about the name change on the Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis Reddit group, some players lament the renaming, while others wonder why it was necessary in the first place

In my previous job we were using a naming convention in which we would mash up the names of search providers with the language a given asset was targeting. We would put the two words together in all lowercase. So stuff like “googlefrench” or “bingenglish” or whatever.

his japanese name was DigHoru? so his name was Dig Hole? Thats great. why not just call him that? Dig Hole. lol

My entire list would just be “6" repeated over and over. It’s far and away the perfect Final Fantasy game in every respect.

I mean, lots of things with great art direction will always have people who simply just don’t like the end results. But I don’t think the existence of people with dissenting opinions, a slight against the important of art direction at the end of the day.

you say that but I think Minecraft is ugly as sin. I have no interest in minecraft but I would buy a copy just to try this mode.

I don’t approve of such crumby behavior. Here people are trying to have a noble duel and a third person is just loafing around until he can roll over an unsuspecting victim.

alternate title: “C’mon, let Tyrese earn that paycheck”

One of the dumbest things about the Transformers movies is that the human characters are all basically incidental: they usually have little to no impact on anything, because the Transformers themselves are giant monsters who are barely susceptible to human weaponry and can pretty much only hurt each other.

Damn. You know I was saying how inconsistent they were, but that does seem to be the unwritten rule. Though how anyone could jerk it to someone in that horse mask is goddamn beyond me.
