Is Skyrim “exclusive” because I can’t play it on my phone? Historically exclusive meant “there is one place you can play it” not “there is one place you can’t.”

It’s certainly too big to fail in the sense that it will always be at least a modest success, but like I said, I saw a lot of normies check out after this last one, not just the loonies who go on reddit to shriek about the national dex or whatever. If modest success is enough for them, then fine, but I don’t think we…

I think Game Freak evaporated the last of their goodwill with this one. The diehards will do what they do, but all the normies I know who don’t really game but picked up Sw/Sh and S/V feel sufficiently burned at this point. The next one will need quite the post-launch zeitgeist groundswell to have a prayer at this…

Well I mean, you could buy the system with all the games you want to play on it, or you can... not. The only real “exclusives” anymore are on Switch.

There is no “if”, the documents literally include PC sales, and Sony has already said the franchises that are on PC will continue to come to PC. The only question is “when”.

Just play them when they come out on PC.

It was not less powerful, and no it didn’t. How are we still doing Sony propaganda about the Xbox One like 12 years after the fact.

They didn’t cut any gaming features though. What.

I wrote a whole blog about this (on this site! that no longer exists! fuck the herb!) at the time, and I stand by it to this day. Xbox One was way ahead of its time and some of its smart home theater conveniences still haven’t been adequately replicated to this day.

This has been private equity’s strategy for the past decade or two and it has worked insanely, incredibly well for them. The part you’re missing is that you get that margin by increasing the price 10% but also by cutting the workforce 10%. A worse product for more money. But you can ride on the inertia of the work…

I mean... no? If Geoff is gonna vamp with a fucking muppet, and let Kojima ramble about his sort-of game that won’t exist for 100 years, you can give the fucking Game of the Year winner more than 30 seconds.

I hope Geoff is suitably ashamed by all of these outfits trying to salvage his embarrassment of a production for him. I assume he isn’t, because he’s an egomaniac that just wants to rub elbows with Hollywood celebrities, but I hope he is.

Obviously the best look was the dancers during Herald of Darkness. Absolutely brought it.

Lol. Lmao, even.

You said exotic weapons and armor, not catalysts. Those are completely different things.

What in the tap dancing fuck are you talking about? Literally every new exotic weapon except raid/dungeon exotics are just handed to you, guaranteed, and exotic armor are on a deterministic knockout system from legend lost sectors and vex incursion. If anything, exotics being way too easy to acquire has been more of…

“Man, I am just so done with the cosplay aesthetic of adaptations lately.” Pretty sure I did exactly that, chief. If you think this looks good, great. I think it looks like dogshit.

This is such a terminally online take. The notion of bottling up each individual culture such that everyone stays in their respective lanes and culture can only be expressed or shared if someone has the exact same skin tone and nation-state lineage as you is so fucking backwards.

If people have issues with the…

Except it is very clearly depicted in a realistic style, aside from the cosplay-ass video game inserts.

Man, I am just so done with the cosplay aesthetic of adaptations lately. This slavish devotion to trying to match stills from your live action thing to rendered/animated screenshots such that it destroys any sense of verisimilitude it might’ve had. That does not look like a suit of power armor, it looks like a…
