I prefer the Daria of my imagination to the one I saw when I rewatched the series on Hulu a few years ago. While Daria herself still amuses me, almost all the characters besides her are two dimensional straw men she bounces her caustic comebacks off of. I remember it got better in the later seasons, with deeper…

There's nothing particularly realistic about this, it's just unpleasant. Elements of realism are something you add to art for flavor, but it's by no means something that's required or necessarily even good in fantasy. If Zelda games were realistic, you'd die in the first dungeon when you got knocked off a platform.

I've always been a big fan of the Amateur Surgeon games, and I'd played them before I ever tried any of the Trauma games, and I found the latter insanely difficult when I finally gave it a wack. I'll take the cartoony surgeon game with the good controls and the stupid jokes, thank you.

It can still be sexist even if it's a gift for the boyfriend. My girlfriend picked up Far Cry 3 for me from Gamestop and had the girl their, in an apparently condescending voice, asked, "Are you sure this is the system he wanted it for?" Worth noting, my girlfriend had not said a word yet.

Ya know, I get uncomfortable when women breastfeed in public.

Why would someone working at a store like that even care if they could afford it? If the credit card clears, it's not your problem. I wish the world was less full of people giving crappy unsolicited advice.

Kim Jong-un always looks like a suspicious potato.

What gets to me is that this article is nothing but a recommendation that will yield cute little ponies crossing your Youtube screen, and there's pages and pages of nerd-shaming about Bronies.

I bought the original on Good Old Games last year, and I found the interface nightmarishly unintuitive, which was a disappointment.

So does the novelist get perks for extended killstreaks, like drones that help take care of his neglected child, or a maid that tends to the house and gives the wife more time for nurturing. Because you emphasized that there's no guns or rockets, I assume there will be a heavy emphasis on sneaking and silent kills…

I bought into the current version of Spy Party, read all the documentation as the creator suggested, tried the practice mode, and felt too intimidated by the experience to actually challenge anyone to a real game. I still can't really articulate why I find myself uncomfortable with playing a normal match.

I like the art. I think there's a tendency with some people to make everything edgy, with protagonist who constantly look like someone just finished insulting them. Zelda games have a lot of innate silliness to their design, why fight it?

I remembered trying Police Quest 1 many years after it's release, and when my car broke down because I didn't walk a full circle around it, I decided that this sort of game wasn't really my thing. I feel like a lot of people who remember Police Quest had similar thoughts when they debated backing that Kickstarter.

Johnny DoubleFine would be very sad if he knew you thought so.

When will we men finally get a drug that makes our ejaculations louder?! I'm talking like gunfire or fog horn loud. Make it nice and unambiguous when we're done.

When you dress like crap but where a fancy hat, it's going to look awkward. That's the issue with nerd fashion most of the time, one or two high class accessories paired with a teeshirt and jeans. It's like wearing a dress shirt and tie with sweat pants.

While I generally enjoy Sarkeesian's videos, and I've liked the Games vs. Tropes series, there are two things that sort of nagged at me after watching this one:

I found that game intriguing story-wise, but letter-writing structure annoys me in any story, whether it's a game or a classic like Dracula. It made it so that upon completion I had no interest in replaying to get alternate endings. Some characters were fascinating, but others were dirt boring, and you had to read…

Daggerfall kind of proved that point, because I recall the game crashing more than once because of my climbing shenanigans.

I've always been sad that Bethesda took away the fun ability from Daggerfall that let you climb virtually anything. I have fond memories of parkouring my way through towns.
