Sadly, this is the internet, so yes, it was.

I dunno, Barbie's pretty damn Aryan.

Mentally broken nut-bars are far more numerous than anyone would like to believe.

I think he means forced as in it's a tacked-on piece of shit that they were forced to put in despite it going entirely against the tone of the series, not forced as in you'll have to play it.

It's not simply a reaction to change, it's science. The human eye sees at about 60 fps. Because 24 fps is so much lower, it actively helps to mask the effects of the uncanny valley; things moving at a slower rate than the brain is accustomed to helps prevent the brain from picking out irregularities. As the frame rate…

Well, it's thriving with hateful idiots like you, so I suppose you have a point.

Now we need a picture of him with his face through some bread.

Yes, but in many cases (Valve games, for instance), the listings are maintained by the company. Even if a game were to, say, use Gamespy itself for a dedicated server listing, it would come at a completely negligible, if not nonexistent, cost to Gamespy, since server upkeep is being maintained by the users…

I've seen a lot of people miss sarcasm on this site, but this... I don't even know how this happens.

HIS BACK PAWS, THEY ARE LIKE FLIPPERS

Good lord, you're a buzzkill. Do you go to children's cancer wards and show them pictures of those who died before them?

Just wait until you see Nier jump. He splays out his limbs and does a rising pelvic thrust. Every time I jump in that game, I get the sensation that an invisible sky-fisherman has hooked my crotch and started to reel me in.

My biggest recommendation is to be a mage. Mage-related stats get you several metric buttloads of conversation option unlocks, and while very weak early on, mixing and experimenting once the spell system opens up is so much fun. Most surprisingly vicious Insect Swarm I've ever seen.

Persona 4 is actually one of my favorites, and one of the first examples I go to in showing how story and gameplay can complement each other. To me, if the Persona 4 story were a book or a movie, it would be pretty good. Things like the dungeon design reflecting the person you're trying to save, the social links…

I play games for fun mechanics.

If you pick it up, let me offer you a tip: experiment with starter skills in all the different weapon trees on one character, then reroll, look up a build with good synergy using whatever weapon felt most natural to you, and focus on that for a while. You'll probably complete an advanced solo build that can take you…

I know I just sent you a ridiculously long post, but let me add one other thing: if at first you don't like the combat, reroll. You can unlock any skills from any weapon at any time, but can only use 2 weapons at once, so you want a synergetic build. I started out on release with Chaos Magic as my main focus, which is…

OK! First of all, the encounter comes as a surprise. The dungeon leading up to it is a straightforward linear crawl; the bosses range from some tank-and-spank minibosses to some bigger ones that have things like chase scenes, running to climb out of electrified water, dodging AoE bombs, etc. High-quality, but not…

If you're on DX9, do not bother. Otherwise, it's not the most fantastically optimized game, but it is pretty lenient requirements-wise.

There aren't levels; as you play, you unlock ability points, which you use on the freeform ability wheel to unlock abilities, which results in rediculously customizable builds, and ultimately it's possible to have every ability in the game (though, timewise, that's not all that feasible). Later level content gives…
