The trio: Poncho, Percy, and Phil.
I don’t know. The paragraphs that explicitly spoke to the game play didn’t make it sound all that good or fun. I guess you were too busy rubbing your hands together in glee at your sick dunk on the author to actually read the article.
Inglorious Basterds works because it doesn’t pull punches or pretend it’s something it’s not, and it’s extremely self-aware. This game is the polar opposite, without any of the self-awareness. It’s crass and dumb, and it gets a lot wrong, even besides its clumsy handling of racism (and weirdly absent antisemitism).…
The comparison is that M Night is primarily known for movies with *A Twist!*

After really enjoying the Legendary trilogy and then Andromedia (its actually a really solid game post launch), I am hella excited to see the series back on track.
It’s because Spiderman was written in the 1960's and 60 year olds looked way older back then. Google image search “people used to look older” for some cool comparisons
It already is! For clarity, that press release, and the accompanying video that’s gone on their YouTube, wasn’t up when I wrote this story.
For me, this is a serious hit to my excitement (I’ve got GamePass, so it’s not like I was going to pay for it anyway) not because of the achievements, but because of the progression. If I can’t ‘move forward’ with the progression system playing solo - which is how I’ll wind up playing most of the game, probably; my…
On the other, it’s a sequel to two of the most beloved sci-fi comedies in film history.
So you’re saying that, because you don’t actually understand the other person’s feelings and have decided to tell a made up story about them, their reasons must be ridiculous and foolish? That’s fucking stupid as hell, man. You get an F in basic empathy.
No, what’s ridiculous is claiming a game’s ludonarrative dissonance bothered you so much and made you feel so uncomfortable that you felt you had to stop playing it.
Username certainly doesn’t check out in this case.
I personally finish every game I start even if I hate it because I don’t want to be considered a wimp by someone who didn’t think things through very well. I also wake up every day wishing I was dead
I have long believed that Sir Clive was one of the most influential people in gaming history, but seeing the evidence you lay out makes me certain of it, especially when it comes to the European branch of game developers.
Well, now I’m kicking myself for buying the Maneater add-on a few days ago...
i actually agreed with him
I mean, I do think it’s possible for creators to lose track of the original themes and strengths of their work. Ray Bradbury has changed his story of what Fahrenheit 451 is about multiple times, for example, and we’ve seen sequels torpedo overarching concepts despite being by the original creator countless times…
Cool. Let's agree to request that as an *option*. I don't like wasting my time on figuring out basic controls.
