“Reactions from players have been mixed, with some praising the decision to avoid the messiness that is often standard with F2P microtransactions...” But didn’t they already specifically say they’re keeping those too? “Players will still be able to collect free Moonstones via Dream Snaps and Chests, or optionally…

Yup. It’s fucking gross. That script was also significantly more violent and Leon is a full-on sociopath. The “no women, no children” rule is still there but otherwise he doesn’t give a shit. Leon trains Mathilda by having her actually kill random people. The script opens with a variation of the rooftop sniper rifle…

Cracked had a listicle years ago that included an entry about Leon. In the international cut, she tries to coax him into sex but he turns her down:

Sorry, want to clarify that isn’t what MMM says. Its thesis is that “man-months” are not a useful metric of how much productive work will get done, because 50 people on a project won’t necessarily (or probably) be twice as productive as 25 people on a project. It doesn’t mean they’ll be slower. It also fights the…

Torrenting isn’t just for piracy wtf are you on about. 

What is DK’s voice? The guy talked in like ONE cartoon and even then it was just like...a guy talking.

As the actual person that originally sent Nina’s work from DA to Ian Boothby, I’d LOVE for this to be true - but it isn’t, at all. The Simpsons production team very much silos itself off from the Bongo comics, and always has, due to IP legal guidelines & principles and creative pride. The writers that pitched it…

Also that IS the Homer backing into bushes meme in the lower-right corner, no?

This story is missing the really cool context: this episode all began with one Deviantart image by a Simpsons fan.

Bummed that they cancelled the Game Pass launch release in favor of Steam exclusivity. I’d like to try the game but, given its complexity, am reluctant to spend $50 on it. I got burned pretty bad doing that on Imperator: Rome a few years back. Guess I’ll watch some let’s plays and go from there.

Switch OLED screen is still nicer than the deck if the games play at roughly the same graphics settings between the two.

The wait time is 2-4 weeks right now. 

Let’s Please Not Forget:

Tomb Raider (2013) launched, and sold over 10 million units, ending at around 14.5 million... and Square Enix called it a failure... do you realize how many games WISH they sold that many units? It’s completely impossible for that game not to have been a success, given it’s completely average…

“plugging The Whale”
Do you have to pay extra for that?

Ari: Xbox Game Pass’ April Lineup is Kind of a Letdown

At face value, It just looks like a way to skirt around the rules. When Twitch cracked down on heavy cleavage, they said clothing appropriate for the setting was okay (or something along those lines).  In response, streamers found a setting where cleavage would be more appropriate, and put a camera there.  Then at…

Yup. About 6 years ago the Canadian dollar started taking a nosedive, and AAA game prices started going up in $5 increments until they hit $80 about a year later. A couple of years after that, the PlayStation Store even started to adjust the exchange rate on lower priced games, so a $20 indie title became $27, a $40…

Fair er. Like a wayfarer. You are essentially ferrying people around. 

No shit
