*definitely not a Bethesda paid customer service rep*: “Actually the worlds AREN’T lifeless and pointless, you’re just playing the game wrong! Why don’t you like fun?”

I don’t know. I feel like, at its very core, there’s a fundamental lack of interesting things to discover in Starfield that no amount of “improved traversal options” can fix.

Can one of the features they roll out be ‘the planets are less lifeless and pointless to explore?’

Skipping political cold opens and sad ballads makes the show much better.

I thought tiny-ass bag (not on Youtube, but available as a clip on the NBC site) was surprisingly quite funny...

Okay Sean, don’t over promise. Just say we’ve been working on something and show some clips!

Ha, that definitely is not an exhaustive list and Redblocks get props, too. The only cars I have seen with my own eyes rolling over 500k on a (supposedly) original drivetrain is them three and an old Mercedes SL v8. I’m also drawing from when I worked at Jiffy Lube in the 90s, so I’m probably leaving a few newer cars…

Hundreds of thousands of redblock-equipped Volvos would beg to differ. As do their whiteblock successors.

Bungie has proven they can’t handle Destiny so many times already. It really has been a franchise that’s full of issue. From Destiny 1 being a flop and dieing super quickly, to Destiny 2 being a total mess.

Confusing expansions, excessive amount of currencies and microtransactions. One of the worst crimes of all was…

johnny was an asshole to everyone he ever met, nuked a city, and spent an entire mission at the start of the game shitting on sex workers. feeling sad is the least of what he deserves

Live Action =/= Realism. Verisimilitude or lack thereof is an aesthetic choice.

Man, I am just so done with the cosplay aesthetic of adaptations lately. This slavish devotion to trying to match stills from your live action thing to rendered/animated screenshots such that it destroys any sense of verisimilitude it might’ve had. That does not look like a suit of power armor, it looks like a…

Um, the last Fallout game before Bethesda took over is literally called Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel.

I mean, you’ve gleaned a lot from from one trailer. You may be too old and crotchety to remember, but Power Armor’s always been front and centre, even back in Interplay’s days. Just have a look at the covers for Fallout 1 and 2

As a very old and crotchety fan, all my enthusiasm for the show drained away once I saw the Brotherhood of Steel front and center in the trailer. Once I saw that, it reminded me that the brand’s Bethesda poisoning had become terminal a long time ago, and that the cool image of power armor is what the series is about…

Someone start an entirely nude playthrough with hogs out and let us know how it goes in the comments.

Except that I doubt the typical Incel has the income needed to buy one.

Tesla fans aren’t going to be frustrated, they are going to lap this up. “OMG, look how great and generous Elmo is!” While ignoring the ulterior motive of keeping peoples interest free loans for as long as possible AND selling them another car at the same time.

Via arbitrary italics.

How did you arrive at this conclusion?
