Kefka is a great villain. I wouldn't say the greatest. Perhaps it's because I'm such a Borderlands fanboy right now, but Handsome Jack is my top villain of all time. Kefka is a sociopath, and I love the feeling of guilt that his survival produces, making you complicit in all his future atrocities just because you let…

There is an island in the Indian ocean populated by a tribe that has not been successfully contacted even in the modern day. Why? Because they are so overwhelmingly hostile that all attempts at contact have ended in bloodshed. They have even driven off helicopters with really determined volleys of arrows. At present,…

It really could be either, as even the Japanese "R" sound isn't identical to the English, and is just slightly closer to R than it is to L. This is why in later volumes, Oda started putting title cards at character introduction with the name both in English and Japanese. Until we get one for him, it really could go…

That's why you make mules. Heck, one of each character and you've got plenty of slots for weapons. I've found that some of the "quirky" guns are actually quite useful under the right circumstances. The guns that fire in a predictable pattern work very well with Gaige when I respec her into Anarchy, for example, as do…

That's what it looks like. For me, this is just fine. BL2 has been my best gaming experience of the year and basically the only game I see myself playing in the near future (at least until Bioshock Infinite comes out, and unless Bayonetta 2 ends up being good). A second season with more DLC characters would be just…

Well fine, apparently I'm the one who doesn't know what he's talking about on the internal game crunch. The rest of my points still stand, and original post edited because I'm an idiot.

I find it a pretty reliable killer unless something is explicitly resistant to it. It does double damage to shields and normal damage to everything else. Then again, my main is an elemental Mechromancer, so I could be biased.

I'm a dedicated antisocial gamer and so I've never played BL2 in coop mode. I've played through the game twice with two different characters and I'm working on a third while going through the DLC and TVH mode with my main (Gaige!)

I'm military trained. I regularly go to the firing range with friends. I'm a crazy accurate shot with most firearms. I believe sane and rational people should have access to whatever firearms they can afford. I do not personally own a firearm, because I am NOT SANE OR RATIONAL. I'm a fucking ticking time bomb and I…

Nickelback, then? Seriously, how could you not remember that entire part of the game?

That's really what I liked too. Here is someone you've seen as nothing but a jackass (ha) and the ultimate evil, showing his humanity. And instead of making him more likable, it just makes him more disturbing. Yet I still saw his point. It didn't make what I had to do any easier to hear his breakdown.

Not while their father, the manipulative psychotic villain, starts out in defiant rage and gradually slips down into crying and pleading with you to stop. That's something I've never seen before.

I'm surprised by how few people are looking at Borderlands 2 as one of the best games of the year, not just for gameplay but for its incredible story that seriously evolved the medium as art. I dare anyone to play the story through Where Angels Fear to Tread and not get emotional.

I personally love fruitcake. Even the big heavy brick kind where a tiny sliver is about five thousand calories. In fact, that's my favorite kind. Then again, I have no taste.

I totally understand this and agree, except with the part about not wanting to lift up others. Part of equality is lifting up those born without white male privilege. But breaking established societal roles starts with you.

See, it's actually perfect for me because as a mildly autistic agoraphobe, I am perfectly damn comfortable living in a tiny box.

I sometimes wish I got more of #1. I have a very right wing friend who instead threw a temper tantrum and tried #4 on me. He accused me of being a government mooch who didn't care what happened to this country.

I favor female protagonists, and I have to say that Bayonetta is possibly the best strong female protagonist I have seen in video game, perhaps even all media. I say this because most media develop strong females by showing them doing "what men do," that's treating femininity as if it's a hindrance, a handicap to be…

This is Rockall (sounds like "fuckall"). It's almost exactly as big as what you see right there. There is a British guard station and little else. The only inhabitants are small mollusks and soldiers who slept with a general's daughter. It is claimed by Iceland, Denmark, the United Kingdom, and Ireland. Greenpeace has…

How in the world could they leave out Cold Days by Jim Butcher?
