You’re certainly right about Skyrim not asking you to do all the stuff. I’ve played at least four different characters in Skyrim. Only one of them completed the main story and a ton of other stuff. The other characters were just because I wanted to have a different character doing a different thing. I never felt like…

I enjoyed that tweet so much more than the actual movie. EH-HEEEEEH!

This has been my gripe with the show so far. My girlfriend who is not a Marvel fan keeps asking why we aren’t just watching Bewitched or something instead. I don’t feel like they’ve been teasing the mystery enough or twisting the classic sitcom formula enough. It really feels like we’re watching an old sitcom just for…

This is probably much more accurate... But Assassins Creed: Jedi is more in line with what I actually want to play. Anytime I see Star Wars without Jedi I just wonder why I should bother with that rather than any other sci-fi world.

Fallen Order had a ton of jank — it was buggy as hell, the level design was like a mid-2000s throwback and I felt like they really phoned it in on the customization options. But it was still one of my favorite games of 2019 (is that right...?). It was pretty much everything I’ve wanted from a Star Wars game, so I look…

Oh man, nemesis system with inquisitors sounds like my heaven. 

I go through a pretty regular love-hate cycle with Assassins Creed, and I’m 100% fine with this.

I’ve yet to see anything that indicates there is a COVID risk when you’re outside and appropriately distanced from other people, especially if you’re wearing a mask. They recently reopened indoor dining where I live, so if anyone tells me not to do physical activities outside and alone while also encouraging me to…

And? I “attend public places” when I go to my nearby park. That doesn’t indicate they were doing anything that would put themselves or others at risk. 

Yeah, they need to release a free or super-cheap version that’s for playing only and then charge for the creation tools.

Given the context of how it’s been used, I think it’s something like this:

First of all, our world is weird. This is weird.

Sony has done a pretty good job of releasing digital versions of their old hits, but Microsoft has done a much better job.

As of right now, I’m far more interested in the XBox Series X. But that’s with very few games taking advantage of either console and Gamepass + backward compatibility being the selling points.

The hypersexed hyperviolent thing going on is really turning me off on the game. I mean that and how broken it is. I have gone from mildly interested to “only planning on picking it up if it gets turned into something REALLY GOOD in about six months.”

Agreed. I passionately hate the PS5, and I’m not planning on buying one until they redesign it. That and I don’t feel like spending $500 on one. but mostly the first thing.

As a journalist/editor, I would personally prefer to use both names, but you can definitely do it without (see: every article written about Elliot so far). Also, there’s room for compassion in reporting without just viewing it as bowing to the whims of “an activist group.” In this particular context, a private citizen…

Yeah, I take that GOW release date with a grain of salt. If they release it within the next year, I feel like a lot of people will expect it to come to PS4 too, which I think Sony won’t want to do. They’ll have to make their big exclusives actually exclusive at some point, right?

I do that too. Which also begs the quesiton of why bother playing an open world game in the first place. I haven’t finished AC Odyssey or Horizon Zero Dawn or even The Witcher 3. I keep playing these kinds of games but I always end up trying to just get through the story after a while. There is such a thing as too big.

Eventually? I guess? Honestly, I’m more turned off by it than anything, but I am also a victim of hype.
