Agreed!

Context sensitive example of ghosts and squirrels! :)

I love the way he nonchalantly throws the spear, as though zero fucks were given as he sought his meal.

It's context sensitive. Squirrels don't get haunted.

Conversely, as a person who played and finished GZ, I can tell you all up front that this game is worth money!

It was also Steak and Blowjob day. In Scotland at least.

Almost looks like a photoshop of the OnLive controller. If it weren't for the difference in stick placement I'd swear that Amazon had just bought up the spares (for there will be many). If it feels like the OnLive controller to hold, that won't be a bad thing as it was actually a really comfy pad to use in my opinion.…

I kind of liked chapters 5-8 in an odd way. I liked them because they went on for too long. Normally, a situation like this might be resolved on the second or third occurence, but in Bravely it becomes something of a sick nightmare which I felt did me in as much as Tiz and the crew. And it affected me in such a way…

I just gave in and bought a US 3DS XL to go alongside my UK one, now I'm wondering whether to invite hunger in for another month and pick up this Japanese one!

I'm curious; have you seen Samurai Champloo, and if so, what were your opinions on that?

It turned him into a duck!

Once only is good enough. I genuinely get sick and tired of seeing the same gifs and images day after day as I scroll through the internet. This goes especially for the ones that weren't funny in the first place! I think I'm getting cantankerous.

It might catch someone caught in the midst of a sleeper hold... :)

I'd like to say you've just had some consistent bad luck! I've not come across much of what you describe before, but to be honest I mostly discuss the souls series with the people I work with. Certainly the polygon instance sounds like just another episode of the intolerance of the internet community, I mean, I'd hope…

Ambition, new ideas or change in tech, implementation of aspects of the software that don't go to plan or have knock on effects elsewhere. Unexpected bugs found by QA. Poorly thought out development schedules put in place either by publishers, or even by the developers themselves who base their next project on the…

Nice sweeping statement. Pretty sure I've only waxed lyrical over how much I've enjoyed the game and discussed the intricacies of the world, lore and suchlike with other fans. I've not used it to put myself on a pedestal to somehow elevate myself above non-souls gamers, but then you did say "Dark Souls fans…

Good good.

Is the hub area a closed off hub like in Demon's, or is it an open hub that branches off and can be explored from like Dark?

I love it but also sigh deeply at my inability to stop buying stuff to add to it. Currently got 53% unfinished games, damn car boot sales, hmv preowned clearances, steam sales...

Also, others have seen the drug references and homage to earthbound (the scenes it references are also mentioned in the comments here).
