This immediately brings to mind Mass Effect 3. Now I have a burning desire to know if Death Stranding has romance options, and if you can romance Mr. Keighley.

But.

To be fair, you are allowed to choose where you buy something. But if you want a Microsoft exclusive game on console you have to buy an Xbox. If you want an Epic exclusive game, you have to buy it on Epic. I mean, I can’t go into a Pizza Hut and demand a KFC Cheetos sandwich. If Steam doesn’t sell the game you want...…

What exactly did the Ooblets developers do? Did they not use the TONE you would prefer them to?

This is like pointing at someone who just got shot on the street and saying “Well they were rude before they got shot, let’s not forget about that. I’m not *agreeing* with the shooter, but we still need to be able to…

Buddy, whenever you couch your argument with “I agree, but in this case she’s doing it for the attention” you should just stop, delete your comment, and walk away from the discussion. Because you have nothing to contribute.

What’s better is that OP replied with chagrin, implying he *was* talking about the Corpse Run comic.

We are not in the era that is appropriate for false equivalences.

There’s realistically only so much you can do these days to get a job. You can’t spend 24/7 stressing about it, and it’s not healthy.  I remember when I was laid off I would look to work and then distract myself by playing the first Mass Effect (yeah this was awhile back).  It really helped to have something immersive…

This article makes me angry.

....that I didn’t think of this joke first.

It doesn’t take much these days to get Anthem’s remaining players excited.

Eh, I like it.  I was just thinking I’d add it to my personal bookmarks based on it being listed here.

I look forward to this series of articles, where you guys write blog posts with increasingly sarcastic headlines directed at each other

Yeah, I’ve enjoyed FFXIV while I played it, but this expansion has been master-class in story. Not only did it have good villains, a terrific setting, a beautiful score, but it finally made your ‘team’ of good guys feel like a fleshed out characters.

Oh, the new Gunbreaker job class has led to a lot of people dressing up as Squall from Final Fantasy VIII, standing around and trying to look cool with their fancy gunblades. That’s bad, right?

Gonna have to disagree with the doc on #2.  If you’re actually friends with his wife, like you actually care about her as a person and respect her as a human being, you’re obligated to tell her.  That’s just not something you keep from a friend.  It might be ugly, and it might blow up in your face, but I wouldn’t be…

That’s interesting!  I wonder how successful that will be at generating revenue?  Part of what makes Mobas and Battle Royale’s so successful is that they’re popular and fairly easy to monetize well.  If Auto Battlers are harder to monetize, I wonder if they’ll continue to see as much publisher support.  

One thing I’m not sure of after reading your article (which is fabulous, by the way, thanks for laying all this out) — how are they making money on this?

Are the games free to play?  Are they doing microtransactions?  I’m just curious where the money from this is coming in... doesn’t seem like you could sell skins…

I feel like Dragonball needs to go the way the Sword Art games have.

I was thinking that between UA3 & the Squeenix Avengers, that explains why they pulled the plug on Marvel Heroes. Marvel Heroes did everything both games plan to do, and while I’m not saying they did it better or worse, it’s pretty clear that Marvel saw $$$ available and decided to go this route and kibosh Marvel…

Honestly, there’s three reasons why he wouldn’t answer now:

1.) Marketing Plan - They plan to announce Zelda playable at a certain point in the development as part of their marketing push. Like in 2020 E3 they show off a bunch of Zelda gameplay as their big reveal.
