There’s way, WAY too much Chadley.

On the other hand, you do get the opportunity to play him in Queen’s Blood and make him eat his awful, overconfident asshole words and beat him into the ground. At cards.

But it’s honestly one of the more fulfilling moments the game so far. 

Anthem seems like a warning for different reasons than I see here. It had a pretty decent single player story and the combat mechanics worked great for the game. I still like their implementation of a Tank character better than I’ve seen in a lot of other games, for example.

The problem is that the mission structures…

I’m not sure I buy this, because it implies that JJ Abrams actually had even a vague plan about what would happen in the sequel trilogy. 

Yeah. I’d argue that they actually revisited and changed the material makes it pretty far from a cash grab.

That said, I wonder if this is going to be like The Hobbit, where something that should have been 1-2 episodes will be 3 or 4 instead.

I weirdly can’t even try to make a top-level comment on this, but I can reply so... this is highly server dependent.

A big chunk of the servers don’t have wait queues at all and haven’t all day. But there are some servers where there are utterly ridiculous amounts of people waiting in line and I have no idea why. Did…

The problem, as always, is that the WH press corps is awful. During the Trump administration they were mostly servile and craven, with a few reporters making their name off of being (justifiably) belligerent.

Minor spoilers: The stuff going on in Bastion isn’t quite as black and white as you go through their campaign. Apparently a lot of people (including the writers) think the Forsworn have a point.

I’ve done the first few chapters of Ardenweald and Bastion’s covenant campaign, and... they’re both pretty good.…

Yes. I have a brand-new computer and I’m going to play it there on launch day.

I think I’ve literally played every CDPR game at launch and loved all of them (except for the Witcher Adventure Game, which was just okay). I’m sure it’ll have a lot of bugs and I’ll be annoyed, but I’m down anyway.

This is my exact experience. I think I bought it on launch for Dead Rising, which was fun but the ‘tablet integration’ was really underwhelming.

Everything else on it that I wanted was either on my PS4 (usually better made) or on the PC (and much better made). I think I’d call it ‘superfluous’ rather than ‘pointless’

Like A Dragon is superb - as someone with minimal Yakuza experience (only played a third or so of Judgment), I’m just continually surprised by how much I like it.

It plays a really fine line between serious and completely absurd, and I love the animation of the enemies in battle. Some great and obvious inspiration from…

To be fair, I was more commenting on Fahey’s experience than mine. I liked MoP, though I played it pretty far after the fact. The main thing here is that you can skip content you don’t like, which is pretty great.

I’m also enjoying the beginning of WoD, though I’m given to understand that most people dislike the later…

I like that the old campaigns are pretty well self-contained, and I also like the levelling a new character no longer means doing bad content (like MoP or WoD), etc.

But I do agree that it doesn’t really feel like you’re earning the ‘Most amazing hero ever’ award that the game keeps giving you. It’s good that the game…

I take a lot of issue with “show over substance”.

Biden’s campaign has a LOT of substance. Lots of policy. He understands his policy and can discuss it at length - hell, he can give careful, nuanced answers to almost any question you can think of. Being Biden, he also fucks up a word or gets mad at dumb questions…

I really don’t even want to get into that argument, I really don’t.

That said, I’ll take subsidized and regulated fruit which is made free to needy portions of the population over what we had 4 years ago or the feces-smeared fruit we’re being served now.

Also, I like oranges. Just saying.

I know, right? How dare Biden’s campaign put some apparent thought and care into making a neat Animal Crossing island. <rolls eyes>

It’s like how campaigns used to make Second Life HQs - it’s neat, but ultimately kind of silly. What it does is show that the campaign at least considers a particular segment of voters as…

Oh, for... This is a ridiculous article.

The Biden campaign made a cheery and silly Animal Crossing island. It’s neat. It will change few minds (and it shouldn’t) but it’s a nice, silly diversion.

I’m sorry you’re tired (we all are, because Holy Shit this administration) but this whole article is like a festival of…

The best part of this is how clearly Mario just PROUD of him. Way to go, Steve.

I’m a bearded 30-something white dude with long hair and glasses.

My BG3 character is a female drow rogue with green-tinged hair. I’m happy to say I have not contributed to this problem :) 

You make a good point. I think the concept was really good (“See how the rebellion affects people who aren’t in the Alliance! Your pilot is a person with family and friends and there’s some stuff going on there!”) but in practice it yanked me out of the game’s storyline too much.

And the Tie Droid thing was... ugh.…

I don’t know about the rest of them, but the Balance of Power expansion campaign for X-Wing Vs. Tie Fighter is critically underrated. The story they told was really excellent, especially from the Alliance side: Slowly whittling down a fleet headed by a Super Star Destroyer, drawing off support, capturing interdictor…
